I have always had long hair and decided after years to change my hairstyle dramatically, so after alot of thought I took the plunge and decided to cut my hair short. My stylist Billy really made me feel comfortable, explained quite comprehensively what he will be doing, which made me feel reassured regarding my decision. I love my new short haircut. Thankyou Billy.

Colourist was great. Chloe who cut my hair was too. Both lovely and professional. The trainee with copper hair will make a fantastic hairdresser.. did a lovely head massage. She had time too and was attentive with water temperature and just lovely and enthusiastic l.
You are just overpriced which puts me off coming more regularly. It does feel like staff are under pressure and understandably in these current circumstances. But it felt like that the time before. I don’t believe it’s anything to do with the employees but there is an air of clock watching and doing everything as fast as possible rather than it feeling more relaxed which should be part of the experience for the money. Feels like a well oiled machine rather than a relaxed atmosphere for both staff and clients. And you do charge more than other competitors in the area which do feel more relaxed. Don’t feel you have met the balance for the price... and again that is nothing to do with the skill and hairdressers.

Shelley has been looking after my hair for some years now. She has got it right every time. Shelley takes time initially to ascertain what’s worked well and what is currently an issue as hair grows and changes, then offers options for current styling. Every time my hair has felt and looked different but I’m always happy. A truly talented and professional stylist.

I have been coming to HOB in Loughton for 8 years now and for that entire time it’s Kay that has cut my hair. I very much enjoy the experience at HOB and the quality of service but ultimately it’s Kay I’m leaving this review for. It’s her I go to and I will continue to do so, she’s brilliant
