I have no complaints about my hair colour and cut and blow dry. I was astonished at the amount of cut hair lying unswept which I felt was dangerous if someone was to slip on it. I understand that there was no one to do this.

From a males perspective Clive is the ideal hairdresser : he cuts in a style to suit the individual and gets it right every time. I never feel disappointed. And his staff are so efficient and personable it is a pleasure to go to the Shapes salon in Portobello. I know several former hairdressers…. male and female…who wouldn’t go anywhere else but Shapes. That says it all.

I have been going to shapes since 1997. It's always nice to see the girls who are all very friendly they make it a pleasure. Gabby has been doing my hair for at least 21 years ( yay coming of age ? this year.,) There is nowhere else I wish to go or have anyone else do my hair.
Hats of to you girls.
Wishing you a very merry Christmas & a happy new year.☺️?????
