Came into salon today for a cut and colour...contemplating red tones and although I hadn't booked the right type / length appointment it wasn't a problem..Louise listened to what i had in mind,then worked her magic with the colour,and Nadine was her usual Class A...The Cut is superb...I'm a very Happy Bunny !! I love the colour and the subtle tones ( hopefully we will have noted the colour for next time please.?..)..Thanks girls..

I chose new girl Brydi (hope I've spelt get name right) specifically because of her experience and training in a Vidal Sassoon Salon. I wanted a short geometric cut to suit my face, and she achieved it. She was confident and inspired trust in her abilities as well as a great conversationalist, which lets be honest it's important when you're having your hair done. Real my enjoyed the experience.

As always a great experience. So lovely to come into the salon for some"me time", relaxation and a chat with Louise. I've had long hair most of my life but gradually Louise is persuading me to be more adventurous. Currently have a lob and today we discussed going even shorter... exciting. I have watched Louise grow from a Saturday girl 10 years ago to the brilliant Senior Stylist she is today.

My appointment was with Brydie and I am absolutely delighted with the style she gave me. She listened to what i liked and didn't like about my hair and managed to turn my overgrown and rather shaggy har into a lovely sleek style.
Super pleased! Will make sure I book with Brydie for my next appointment.

The booking was easy, the reception warm and efficient. From the moment I walked in I was treated with friendliness and courtesy. The salon is roomy, stylish and spotless. The chair massage with heated neck pillow and the shampoo and head massage were luxurious bliss. Nadine gave me the best haircut I have had since the last time I went to her, 12 years ago! and remembered me, too.
Definitely the best salon I have visited in the UK.
