Julio Garcia, one half of York's iconic hairdressing duo, sadly died of cancer on Monday at the age of 70. Mr Garcia and his partner Glen Jackson ran their Bishopthorpe Road hairdressing salon for 40 years and retired back in 2015. The pair were both regional, national, and international award-winning stylists.
After retirement, the duo - who married in a civil ceremony - lived quietly at home in Acomb with their dog Sophia, while continuing to visit Julio’s family in Spain. Julio died at York Hospital with Glen by his side.
