£2 a minute haircut

Maureen Pugh

Appointment verified by iSalon Software

I have no complaints about my hairdresser. She carried out exactly what I asked for - a light trim. My complaint is that I turned up for an 8:00 pm appointment and left the Shenley brook end salon at precisely 8:12 pm. I had a dry cut had no finish and no product was used and I paid £27 which works out at over £2 a minute. £120 an hour! I would give no stars for value if I was able to. My husband couldn't believe how soon I returned home and thought my appointment must have been cancelled.

Hi Maureen, Im so sorry that you had cause to complain, I understand that you also called the salon to discuss the review you posted- thanks for giving us the opportunity to discuss it with you. Im pleased that the trim was to your satisfaction, we allow 30 minutes for a 'cut only' service and this can include a shampoo if desired at no extra charge, but excludes a blow dry, generally in a dry cut we also dont apply products, but if you wanted any recommendations please do not ever hesitate to ask. If I can be of any further assistance please do not hesitate to email me [email protected]. Debbie x
