Tint & Blow dry

Louise Felder
26th Sep 2020
Stylist: Santino
4.5

Santino coloured my hair professionally & listened to my comments about the eveness of the colour, leaving rhe tint in for 5minutes longer & ensuing that the toner was left on for 7 minutes. The washer was efficient with a pleasant manner too. Simon Barker did a good job finishing my hair with an on the day blow dry. I would query the discontinuation of a rough dry at the salon as sometimes when I have a tint a rough dry is all that is needed especially on a wet & windy day, when the blow dry gets blown away before the end of the day. The choice of a rough dry should be available as it takes far less time than a blow dry.

Dear Louise,
Thank you for taking the time to review our salon and letting us know your thoughts. We're pleased you enjoyed the colouring and blow drying services you received and value your feedback on a wet and windy day needing a rough dry instead of a blow dry. We appreciate you pointing this out and making us aware of this. We are always looking for ways to improve our services.

Thank you again for your review.

Very Bad Experience With Senior Hairstylist

Louise Dutton

Appointment verified by Shortcuts Software

I had a very bad experience with the hairstylist *****. She did not give me the cut that I asked for and the cut was very uneven. She also cut my neck with the scissors and refused to accept that she had until my neck started bleeding. Even then there was no genuine apology. I am very shocked that a hairdresser would do this during a difficult time with covid.
