Amy has just done me the perfect mullet! She’s so confident and extremely talented, especially in the edgy hairstyles. A real talent, as her range is so broad! I’m absolutely thrilled! It’s like a top London haircut. Lovely girl as well.

Great service from Jay as usual. She knows my hair so well and is so knowledgeable about what looks good on me. She is a lovely warm and friendly person who I always look forward to seeing when I visit the salon. Only issue the salon was freezing as there was no proper heating and I was very cold when I left after sitting for over 2 hours. It kind of spoiled the experience.
