Very welcoming salon - greeted immediately I was through the door . Fehat was very attentive and listen to my request on colouring etc and showed me example of the colours to tone in with root colour etc. I was offered drinks - which was lovely along with biscuit . Very relaxing experience ( wash basin has reclining chair) . My hair felt like silk at the end of the process ( lovely conditioner- smell was amazing) and the colour and style was exactly to my liking!

Literally everything about this place is just perfect. It’s such a calming environment. Comfy chairs, fabulous coffee, relaxing ambiance. You can tell that all the staff adore each other and it gives the place such a welcoming vibe. I’ve not even got into the hair yet. While all of the stylists have their own speciality, they’re also so well rounded they can do anything. I’ve had my hair done by so many different people there, I’ve been going since Abbie opened her first salon lord knows how many years ago, I’ve never had a cut and colour anything short of spectacular. I’m always blown away by the level of talent and commitment to customer service. I can’t recommend The Strand highly enough. I know I’d never go anywhere else. The advice and aftercare is stop on. They recommend hair products but never push a hard sell. It’s not just products either, if you sign up to the newsletter you get so much good advice for making sure your hair always looks it’s best. I never feel as stunning and confident as when I leave The Strand with a fresh new look. It’s heavenly.

Wow what an amazing salon. I was greeted with a lovely warm welcome and asked if I would like a drink straight away. I was served with a coffee and a pastry. Very lovely touch. I was made to feel special and the salon had a luxurious feel. My hairdresser Feret was very skilled and attentive. I live my new hair cut and am so happy I have finally found a salon I want to keep returning too. Thank you for a wonderful experience and will look forward to recommending your services to my friends and family. You get a goody bag when leaving but I wont spoil the surprise. 100% recommend this salon. Best wishes

I had a full set of highlights this morning. Asked if Anetta could lighten it up as it was very brassy blonde on dark brown. Wow did she lighten it up, I love it. Wasn’t expecting her to be able to lift it so much in one session. I had a lovely morning, reading my book and relaxing. Took away some senses colour enhancing mask too, thanks for the recommendation Annetta.
