Cath, owner of London hairdressing salon Teasers, is in a long-term relationship. When her partner - the smarmy, slick American businessman Clint - proposes, it's not a shock, but nor is it welcome; she's been finding herself falling for senior stylist David.

Cath struggles to decide which of the two men she should be with, how to deal with them, and indeed how to handle herself - all whilst keeping the business running smoothly.
