Hello there! I've been seeing Cey for a while now and she always creates the style/ haircut I want. I can't thank her enough for today! I am extremely pleased how my cut ✂️ turned out. I know I may be a bit tricky client as sometimes I'm not sure what I want.
As soon as I sat down this afternoon Cey looked after me, brought me lovely Moca coffee and we had amazing chat about what I want and how to adjust the style to suit me/my personality 🙂.
Thank you lots again!!! You are AMAZING ❤️

As usual a warm welcome and Sam was brilliant. The new girl? Helen did a lovely cut but kept checking on her other client. Usually feel as if I am only client there. Didn't today because 3 or 4 times she kept looking at and checking other client. But otherwise it was fine. Thank you. See you in 6 weeks. X

I had an amazing experience at this salon! Sam did an extraordinary job with my balayage, I couldn’t be happier with the results. She put so much effort and care into making sure it turned out perfect.

Charleigh was also fantastic, she gave me great advice about my haircut and really took the time to explain what would suit me best.

Highly recommend this salon: a genuinely thoughtful service!
