I have very thick hair and it takes a while to do my highlights and roots. Evie is very patient and did a fabulous job. Lots of compliments. I normally have a different stylist to cut my hair but had every confidence in Evie even though I was asking to have a big chunk cut off.
I am so pleased with the outcome.
I would also like to say that Aimee ( think I have the name right) washed my hair beautifully. It felt relaxing and like a head massage.

I was very pleased with the wash and cut by Evie. It was my first visit to your salon and I was made to feel very welcome. Evie spent time asking me how I wanted my hair and gave some good advice and an excellent cut. My hair is quite thin and the layers have really improved the volume. I would definitely recommend Evie and the salon to friends. Will be rebooking for a trim shortly. Many thanks, Pauline

Evie washed , cut and straightened my daughters hair shes 11 with very thick long hair , Evie spoke to my daughter and asked her what she wanted and I thought that was lovely as shes 11 now and not wanting mum to be making decisions, she also suggested a few things regarding the weight of her hair which was nice. Lillie-Rae said she had a head masage and it was really nice , the whole interaction Evie was lovely and asked relevant questions regarding school ect , she is very patient and can tell she didn't want to put her scissors down until she was happy with her cut aswel. I would highly recommend Evie , my daughter felt pampered today.

As usual I had a great haircut. Birgitta is always friendly.
However I wish she wouldn’t knock my head with a comb when she’s cutting my hair. It’s only happened a couple of times I’ve been, but I thought I might have upset her somehow. Not really a problem, but just a niggle.
Everything else was great.
