Anthony worked with me to find a new style. He seemed excited to create something for me I would like which was refreshing. I would highly recommend him. I’m very happy with my cut and have booked to see him again. He was finishing up with another client and apologetic for keeping me a short while. It was no problem. Considering it was the opening day of the salon I felt really looked after by all staff. I have found my local hairdressers and shall be going back.

The staff were lovely, in particular Shaz but I am sorry to say that it was far from a relaxing experience. Tony the owner agreed to turn down the music a little but listening to the same thumping for 4 hours actually did my head in. I wish the salon much luck in their new premises and hope it’s not like a disco when I return again!

Poonam was so friendly and I was super happy with how well she cut my hair. She knows how to engage with her clients.
