Excellent service from Andrew as always. He adviced my son in care of his unruly hair which he has followed with ease. Lovely haircut according to his wishes. My son was very nervous and worried he won’t be listened to but Andrew was friendly, professional and cut his hair exactly as my son hoped to. Thank you, Andrew, you are the best!

Response from The Strand

Thank- you for taking the time to write a review.
Its so dissapointing to read about your experience when coming to see us, I cant lie it has been a challenging few months... the leak was from a very old boiler we inherited with the salon and were unable to get a builder and plumber quickly to sort it out. The ceiling has now been done but we had yet another leak.( Fortunatley not so bad )
The salon was completley repainted just 18 months ago, i also noticed the marks on the walls so clearly the wrong sort of paint has been used.
Trays should be cleaned before each customer and young summer staff have helped us over the busy summer period.
Feedback is vital to any small business in these differcult times and i i appreciate your comments.
Hopefully see you again soon and you will see our lovely, friendly high street salon back to its old self.
Kind regards
Sam Simon.
Owner.

Beautiful hair cut and Michelle was wonderful as ever. However the salon felt rather un-loved, ceiling dreadful (obviously had a problem and not all repaired yet). Also not terribly clean. Very unusual as usually impeccable. I hope the salon gets back to usual fine quality quickly..

My usual stylist Andrew was unwell, so Jo very kindly fitted me into her list for the day, for which I was grateful.
I hadn't been for some time, and was taking a friend with me so didn't want to rearrange. Jo did a lovely job and was very helpful to my friend too.

The salon is welcoming, relaxing and the girls know how to make your hair exactly as you ask for. I couldn't be happier with the service. Thank you so much!
