This is a little gem of a place where you can get all treatments in one place without trampling all over the city. Today I had hair and gel nails done normally I would have had to go to two places for that. Hair cut and blow dry was excellent and after I had my nails done also excellent. Staff are lovely as well as very skilled, next time I will get my HD brows done as well, yes they do that too

Hi there, glad to hear you were pleased with the cuts; You saw quite a senior level stylist, to keep the costs down you could rebook with a 'basic level' (not newly qualified or training, so still fab for cutting) to make it more affordable, the prices start at £20.50 for just a trim and £30.50 for a wash cut and blow dry which we believe is very reasonable for a salon. Additionally your husband took a 'booked appointment' with a mid level stylist, we also offer a #DropInService all day everyday where he could have traditional barber shop prices (£10.50) on a 'sit and wait' basis with the barber - if he doesnt need the full service of the salon stylists? We also give you 'loyalty points' for every £1 you spend in salon, so to reward loyalty you can earn money off services (£10/£25) as these points build up. We also someitmes have late space prices on Facebook (www.facebook.com/arcanasalon) so it's worth looking for deals on there. We do hope it wont be your last visit to us :0)

Sammi listened carefully to what colour I was after and when I arrived for my appointment she had obviously carefully considered the best combination for me. As I am 'mother of the bride' in 5 days she knew how important it was to me and reassured me that I wouldn't leave until I was entirely happy. I am delighted to report I was completely satisfied with the results. I had the blonde colour combination I'd been looking for and felt that I had had a professional service.
