I not happy with my colour. Felt really rushed. shade. Not what I asked for been left ginger when I wanted and always had blonde and left with streaks across my hair as well as blotches where bleach had leaked out the foil. My hair is a mess still trying to repair the damage when I said I didn’t like the colour. I was made to feel I was being an inconvenience as she had to put a toner through my hair after all it was now home time. (One star in value wasn’t meant but can’t take it back out for some reason )

Terrible haircut

Probably the worst haircut I've had - not at all what I asked for. I asked for it to be cut about chin length - it's well below my shoulders. I asked for layers - it's practically straight across. Looks like a child's haircut. I won't be going back.

The staff are very friendly and always happy to help when I can't decide what colour to choose.
They are very attentive as they remember conversations and always ask how I am and did I enjoy my holiday.
Highly recommend shapes to anyone who is looking for a good hairdresser and are always happy to listen ...its a nice wee touch ...wouldn't go anywherelse...

Don’t want to leave a review as I have nothing good to say.... certainly didn’t come away with the saloon ‘new hair’ feeling, very rushed, everyone else in the place (customers) even seemed miserable, more hair products than my dressing table used on my hair in one go, bashed and clattered on the head with the hairdryer, and think my hair was getting cut with a pair of nail clipper scissors ? very disappointed
