For more than a century, Banbury Postiche has brought together specialist hair products, wig-making supplies and professional education. From our base in Wroxton, near Banbury, we support the people who create, teach, research and care.
Built on specialist knowledge. Shaped by changing needs.
Our roots reach back to 1914, when the business began trading as a human hair merchant. In 1921, Mr F Mulley established Banbury Postiche under the name that continues today. That history connects us to the materials, techniques and craft at the heart of the hair industry.
Over the decades, our work has grown to encompass hair products, wig-making equipment, added-hair solutions and education. We serve customers across the UK and internationally, bringing a broad range of specialist departments together within one business.
Today, our purpose-built facilities in Wroxton provide a home for that continuing development. Our focus remains on the quality of the products we supply and the service we give to the people who rely on them.
