My overall experience at the salon

Staff always friendly welcoming and efficient majority of the time. Love having my colour done by enthusiastic Katie if not Anna. Both such great stylists. My hair wash especially the massage is always wonderful just not long enough as it just leaves me wanting more.. hahaha! The only negative thing I have to say is that I have to inform some members of staff to get rid of stains on my forehead or back of neck and I have to remind the or prompt where they are everytime which I shouldn't have to do for what I class as a 5* hairdressers.

Lovely Sam who is such a good listener as well as a fantastic hairdresser. Lovely cut, suggested change of shaping at the front. My hair looks so bouncy once she had finished. Frankie washed my hair, she is lovely too and chatted away, which I like

I’m a loyal customer, for what could be over 10 years now - felt the need to share today’s experience, the team really did go over and above to please me- even resurrecting an old product to make me happy and have promised to buy it in every time I visit. This is honestly why I travel 45 mins to the salon each time- Cat and recently Boy Sam (when Cat has been on maternity) are such great stylists , always respectful of my demands and nothing is ever too much!! PS the coffee and head massage is pretty good too!
