I had the usual friendly, relaxing experience with Julie. Despite being extra busy due to staff shortages nothing felt rushed. It's a great way to spend a couple of hours.

Lizzie waxed and creamed my legs for me. They feel and look absolutely wonderful and I could go swimming this afternoon knowing that whoever was following me up the steps had hair-free legs in front of them! A pity I haven’t a man to run his hands up and down them!

I felt my hair style needed a little refresh and Kirstie took slightly more off when cutting my hair, this time. It's still long, but about 3" shorter this time.

Kirtskes great care when cutting and blow drying your hair to achieve a good finish.

My hair looks much healthier, thicker and it feels great!

Thanks very much, Kirstie!!

Another lovely welcome to the salon from Evie. She checked what was planned today and my choice of colours to use. Once agreed, she quickly mixed the colours and set about producing my highlights, with foil. She has a knack of giving me more lovely highlights!

had a lovely afternoon at this beautiful new nail salon. Ellie looked after me so well from start to finish. She explained everything clearly, checked that I was happy with the shape and coverage throughout, and the finished result was fantastic.

I also had my eyebrows tinted and shaped. Again, Ellie talked me through every step, making sure I was comfortable and happy with everything. I’m absolutely delighted with the results and would highly recommend both Ellie and the salon. Thank you Ellie, I’ll definitely be back!

A very relaxing experience, as usual. Julie always asks how my hair has been since my last visit and whether I am happy with it or would like something different. She gives her professional advice, which i am more than happy to take. I always leave feeling that my hair looks as good as it possibly can. All the staff are friendly and it's a pleasure to be a customer.

I have cancer and I lost my hair to my last set of treatment. Everyone was so kind at the salon as I came in with my wigs in a bag and a bald head! I didn't feel out of place and felt truly cared for. Kirstie cut 2 wigs to help style it to my style and advised me on a third on how to wear it!! I can't thank Kirstie and the team enough for their kindness and understanding. Oh and to Lizzie in Beauty for giving me some fabulous eyebrows. I can't express how much of a difference this makes to how I feel. Appreciate it so much.

A lovely warm & friendly welcome from Evie. She checked firstly whether I was happy with her using the same colours, or whether I wished to make any changes to them. She used foil packets for the highlights and we had a nice time catching up with eachother.
The colours she used have turned out very well and I love them!

First time using the beauty salon and using my rewards for a back massage and lip wax
Lizzie was very friendly and welcoming and as I had never had a wax treatment she explained what to expect so there was no surprises
The back massage was bliss and time went all too quickly

I had the loveliest facial today and honestly left feeling relaxed, pampered and refreshed, everyone was warm and welcoming. my skin has now lost the grey dull look I walked in with and feels completely moisturised and the best it has for so long.
Lizzie made me feel completely at ease throughout the treatment and confident in her expertise throughout the facial, you can tell she is very experienced and passionate about what she does.
It was a lovely bit of self care and would recommend Lizzie at Robert John to anyone wanting to treat themselves.
