Had my hair taken from a faded and warn pink, my hair tuned out a beautiful ashy blonde with a Sutton balayage effect. I was also treated like a queen, blow dry style and a glass of wine ??‍♀️

Lucy and Evie was a dream team on my hair!! Being both balayage and blow dry queens! Gave me such a fun and comfortable experience, made me feel so welcomed and treated me like royalty! They was more than Patient and really went the extra mile to do exactly what I wanted for my hair! The result was unbelievable! Never have a walk away form a salon feeling so happy and confident with my hair! Couldn’t recommend enough!

I booked an appointment at headkandy as my usual salon did not offer the treatment olaplex. I was not disappointed and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The salon was friendly and took the time to explain how the treatment works. My hair was blow dried and I am extremely pleased with the result. Many thanks - I certainly will be back!

Service was very good, but £19.50 for just a No 1 cut and less than 10 minutes is excessive.

Response from HEADKANDY Hairdressing

Hi Ray, We are sorry you were charged the price of a full Gents cut on this day - as said on the phone when we called to apologise it was a genuine mistake from a newer staff member who was unaware you paid less. We do hope Ryan’s phone call to you has helped resolve this and we see you again in the future. Many thanks. HK

All things a salon should be and more. I keep going back, across the city, because they get to know you and actually give you what you ask for. They make sure that you feel welcome and leave happy. Top notch!
