I had the absolute pleasure of having my hair cut and coloured by Austen, and I couldn't be happier with the result! Austen always takes the time to really listen to what I want and offers thoughtful suggestions that work perfectly for my hair type and style. The colour is vibrant and beautifully blended, and the cut is exactly what I was hoping for — fresh, flattering, and easy to manage. So much so, when i left the salin, a man on his bike stopped me to admire the colour of my hair!! Austen’s attention to detail and warm, professional approach made the whole experience relaxing and enjoyable. Highly recommend if you're looking for someone with skill, creativity, and genuine care for their clients!
Austen has made a huge difference to my hair. Now the colour and the cut are exactly what I’ve been looking for. He listens, looks, and quietly creates a miracle!
Hi Fiona,
Thank you for your kind review! We are delighted to hear that Austen was able to make such a positive difference to your hair. It's always our goal to listen to our clients and create the perfect look for them.
