I had a brilliant cut by Lee. My hair is difficult to cut well and he masterfully gave my hair a youthful style.
He encouraged me to let my hair grow grey, giving me artful tips on how to accessorise for a chic and trendy effect.
He brought over Emma for a chat and after about 5 years of indecision I decided to take the plunge….and I am so pleased I did it. Emma is a colour artist highlighting my hair then toning it to suit my skin tune enhancing my features and yes making me look younger.
Bravo to Lee and Emma.

Saw Tom for the first time for a cut and blow dry and was extremely happy with everything. I loved the gentle and non-rushed shampoo with head massage and the fact he put a lot of effort and gentleness into his work/ the cut as well as understanding what I would like from a cut and my type of hair. Will come again.

I’ve just moved to Hampstead and had my first root regrowth colour and blow dry with the Hobs team. The service was amazing! My stylist discussed my needs, ensured the colour was just right and did a lovely blow dry. In addition, I was given a glass of wine to relax and enjoy the experience. A fun salon with well experienced staff. I would highly recommend Hobs!
