I went in not having been to a hairdressers in 10 years, I had long dry and frizzy hair, showed a reference photo of short hair with curtain bangs and Ophelia went through everything with me on what she thought would look best while still keeping to the reference pic, making sure I was happy with everything she was going through, lovely and chatty throughout, once the cut was done she then showed me how to style it as ot was a complete change to before!

Reece has been cutting and colouring my hair for a couple of years and I hope many more to come. Yesterday I managed to get a cancellation, concerned about breakage and hair loss at the middle front of my head that suggested it’s a stress response. After assessing the damage Reece opened his arms for a hug knowing I was worried and said ‘don’t worry it can be sorted’. He gave me a shorter pixie fringe to blend it in, recommended a Nioxin starter pack and I feel so much better for the cut that disguises the issue.

I’ve had the pleasure of this Salon every month since January. No matter what service I’ve had, whether it be a full colour, highlights & a Cut., Or simply just my roots I can honestly say my hair looks & feels totally revitalised & amazing every time (even tho I say so myself). The service & hair advice provided is 2nd to none, as is the vibe of the Salon & all of the Staff. Even better, Chopp have created their very own Hair Product Brand which I have invested in & just love! Thank you Chopp! Happy I’ve found you

As soon as I walked into the salon I felt instantly at ease and knew I was in safe hands. I had a consultation with Reece and he was completely transparent and realistic with me about my hair goals and we came up with a plan that I was very happy with but the end results was even better than I expected. Reece talked me through everything and making sure I was happy the whole time. The colour, the hair cut, the experience was everything I could’ve wished for. Thank you!

What can I say!? I trust Reece implicitly, as I did on the day of my wedding - he is a perfectionist and wouldn’t let me do something to my hair, that he knew wouldn’t suit me or would be a bad decision! If there was a higher grade than A* he would get it! ? Everyone at Chopp are so welcoming, friendly and helpful - having my crazy hair tamed is something I always look forward to!

I’ve been going to Reece at Chopp for approximately 8 years, and even now, since moving to Kent, I still travel over an hour and half to get my hair cut and dyed here. His knowledge and expertise are apparent and I always leave feeling beautiful. I receive compliments on my hair regularly thanks to him! I highly recommend this salon to everyone!

Another outstanding colour service. I have coily textured hair 4a. This is my third visit having my hair bleached blonde. My hair has kept its integrity and I have not experienced any breakages and I’m retaining length in my hair growth as well.

I am extremely happy with the results. I highly recommended this Salon to those who have textured hair. This salon is truly a hidden treasure in the curly/coily hair community.
