I needed a miracle and Tilly made that happen.

Desperate for a hair cut and lucky to get a cancellation. Laura did just what I wanted - short and easy to look after. As demonstrated by my sea swim today, just got out, towel dried, hand through it - done! Love it!

It was so lovely to see Tilly again. Tillyvused to be my hairdresser for years when you were in Chapel Street. Having recently moved back home to Cornwall and not being able to find a hairdresser I was comfortable with, I was delighted to see back in the salon. The salon is lovely, all the staff made me feel very comfortable and I can’t wait to go back.

This is not for public broadcast please . Éveryone I came into contact with were excellent and seeing Emma as my stylist for the first time in ages was wonderful . I’ve been meaning to mention for a while now could you please fix the basins . They both slump down when in use and it’s really heavy on the shoulders . Not quite what you need ! Not sure if the massagers still work either ? Sorry to mention this but I’d want to know :)
Ps I love my new hair style and the colour thank you . ppps stylist list needs updating .

Response from Hunter & Walsh

Hi Sandra,

Thank you for your kind review! We are thrilled to hear that you had a wonderful experience with Emma as your stylist and that you love your new hairstyle and colour. We appreciate your feedback about the basins and will definitely look into fixing them as soon as possible. We want to make sure that all our clients are comfortable during their time with us. We are having trouble with the left hand basin regarding the massager as it's intermittent, we have had the control pad replaced twice as that is what the manufacturer suggested it could be,I will be now looking at getting an electrician to look at it.. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We will also update the stylist list as per your suggestion.

Thank you for choosing our salon and we hope to see you again soon!

Warmly,
Nadine
