The Passion Pit opened for business in mid July with the express aim of bringing a 'big city' hairdressing salon to The Moorlands. Brainchild of Head Stylist Libbi Kirkby, The Pit's also a one-stop-shop for contemporary style, boasting on-site beauticians and vintage clothes store The Closet. It's located at 70 St. Edward Street, Leek, a building which has been totally renovated and revamped after several years of decay. The once-sad premises now enjoys a distinctly contemporary look, with wall murals, vintage furniture and 2 floors of style. The initial 2 months were a great success, capped by the building's grand opening 'A Visual Storm.
