Visiting the salon is always a pleasure, you're made to feel very welcome, and valued, but I was especially pleased this time. 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.
