子承父業開創髮型屋名髮型師天朗在蘭桂芳創立的飛短留長髮型屋,由於技藝高超,兼待客細心,客人總是絡繹不絕,全都是名女藝人或高級模特兒,故飛短留長開辦三年以來,業務總是蒸蒸日上,忙得天朗不可開交。而天朗亦有結識四年的同居模特兒女友卓琪,正是事業與愛情兩皆得意。可是,平時長袖善舞、機敏伶俐的天朗不知為何,總是未能解決自己與父親光榮之間的矛盾。 位於港島南岸,風景怡人,華洋雜處的赤柱正是天朗「生於斯、長於斯」之地。赤柱大街的一號舖位,開設著有數十年歷史的大眾理髮廳,乃天朗父親光榮多年來的心血,身為老闆的光榮亦親力親為的替客人剪髮,髮型師號碼為一號,故當赤柱的老街坊提起「赤柱一號」時,都會想起光榮和他的大眾理髮廳。 光榮待人以誠,熱心公益,亦熱愛家庭,是個傳統的好丈夫好父親。只是光榮自己雖非常敬業樂業,卻希望自己的兒子能有一個更好的前途,不想只是當一個別人口中的「洗頭仔」、「剪髮佬」,故一心供兩個兒子到外國升讀大學,但次子天明至中七輟學後,一直遊手好閒,只有志於滑浪風帆運動,父子倆因這分歧而極不咬弦,身為妻子和母親的淑英自然擔憂,便致電天朗要他回家勸解。 天朗回家後,最終卻勸解不成,反而與光榮大吵一場,光榮還在盛怒中抖出當年曾送天朗到外地升讀大學,但天朗在外地竟瞞著光榮,私自往修讀髮型設計,令光榮大為不滿。 天朗失落之際,於聖士提反灣巧遇童年摯友澄,澄是滑浪風帆的教練,亦是機械工程師,現正幫其父根打理祖傳的士丹尼船廠。澄小時與天朗同讀一所小學,當時根曾逞強的替澄剪髮,結果剪出來的效果相當差勁,醜得令澄不敢上學,只懂躲在暗處哭,被天朗瞧見了,便拿起勞作用的小剪刀替澄修剪。天朗剪得居然似模似樣,令澄破涕為笑,澄從此便對天朗抱有好感。 一日,赤柱來了個不速之客,自稱"拐"仔堅兒子的祖昇從荷蘭回來,為要完成亡父心願。光榮深覺祖昇孝義,大為欣賞。祖昇亦感激光榮當年恩情,對光榮及淑英皆敬重有加,程度比天朗和天明還深,最後甚至入住於光榮的家,天朗兩兄弟在旁瞧著,心裡滿不是味兒,加上赤柱褲屋的一個員工慧姿欲偷天后廟內的香油箱錢,根誤以為昇是小偷,更痛恨之,穎和樂亦覺祖昇居心叵測。 根對祖昇心生厭惡,但祖昇卻非常欣賞澄,並對澄展開熱烈追求,澄對祖昇的追求攻勢感到又好氣又笑,但最終仍婉拒。原來澄每次遇上追求時,心中便不禁把追求者與天朗暗地相比,總覺天朗勝一籌。祖昇說明澄一直暗戀天朗,更鼓勵澄向天朗表達心意,但澄卻怕破壞現在與天朗的友情而拒絕。祖昇至此亦和澄發展出一段純真的兄妹之情。 究竟澄能否突破友誼界限和天朗發展成為情侶?而天朗面對澄及同居女友卓琪這段三角戀又如何選擇?而父親光榮跟兒子的誤會和深層矛盾又可否冰釋前嫌呢?一個個如髮絲般糾纏不清的親情、愛情和友情,會逐漸一一解開。
