I have been using this salon for a few years now and Sally is lovely, listens to what I would like and gives advice that I trust. It isnt the cheapest but value is ok and all the staff are lovely, none of that trying to look cool at the expense of the customer that I have found elsewhere and the cut lasts well. Previous salons always took my business for granted eventually but the service here is consistent. The salon is bright and modern and has a decent loo that they are gracious about customers using. Always offer a hair massage and have massage chairs as standard. The drink offer has been drastically cut, for the money it would be nice to have a
more interesting selection..I just have water as I am allergic to coffee. Always spotless and tidy. Recommended overall, these are just tweaks to make it even better.

Really impressed with Sally's patience and gentleness with my hair. My appointment was a walk in and she immediately made me feel at ease. I've been very hesitant to have my hair done as stylists have been very heavy handed during detangling and with heat use, but I was so pleased with Sally's patience and the final result.

Great chat too, would recommend for 'nervous' clients in the chair.

Aysha (Ajshe), is lovely she made me feel comfortable on arrival. She discussed with me from the get go what I wanted and what was achievable. It was the first time I had met Aysha, but the conversation naturally flowed. There wasn't a point where I felt rushed or left alone for long periods of time. I was overjoyed with the end result and would highly recommend Aysha's services. Thanks for an amazing job. Emma.

It was my first time at ministry of hair and also first time in a salon for a long while but I was very impressed. I was seen to really quick and talked through how I wanted my cut with Aysha who also gave me good advice. She cut it just how I wanted with long layers and I was so pleased with the result. It was a great salon experience from start to finish and I highly recommend. I will definitely be back for maintenance on my new cut. Thank you
