Melody is a fantastic stylist. She did my cut, wash, and curls today and I'm so happy. I left feeling amazing and pretty! My hair is very long and started to get 'tatty' so I asked for a couple of inches to be taken off and the difference it has made is incredible.
The salon is beautiful, and everyone is friendly and welcoming.
Thank you Melody!

Thank you Freya for my highlights and restyle last week - prepping me for a girls weekend. If I could leave a photo, it would paint the picture - a huge smile and loads of compliments about my new pixie cut. Shorter and edgier, bit of a risk but Freya knows me and my hair... and she’s given me a whole new look. I love it. Thanks also to Viv and the lovely reception lady (whose name I didn’t catch, sorry!) who entertained my baby and allowed me to have some much needed me - time. Will be back as usual in a month or two. X x x x x

I was spoiled by the people who cut my hair in London and dreaded whether I would find anything of that quality in Penzance. Lo and behold I found it! Jade cut my hair, she listened to my clumsy description of what I was looking for and the result was quality and exactly what I was looking for. Great, friendly service. I won't be going anywhere else from now on.

To be honest I was disappointed when I left as I was expecting the highlights to lift a lot more. I still felt like my hair had a dull dark look compared to what I was expecting. I have had highlights over a darker box dye before and lifted brilliantly so I was expecting the same thing at your salon for £65.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review, I am very sorry you feel disappointed that your highlights didn't lift as much as you were expecting.
As a salon it is our policy to above all else, maintain and protect the health of your hair and will never push hair beyond its limits. Especially when we are dealing with removing a box dye, home colourants are so different from one to the other that we treat them with the utmost caution. Some lift out with ease, some are so stubborn and some contain metallic salts that create a terrible reaction and instant breakage.
Lousie explained to you that removing your dark colour would take time and a few processes. Going from light to dark carefully can take quite a few applications over a significant amount of time.
You have had the first step, the next process will take it even lighter and hopefully be closer to your desired end result.
Many Thanks
Viv
