I have curly hair which not all hairstylists know how to cut. Christie is the only hairstylist among the many I have tried in the UK, who does a great job each time. I am very pleased with her work as well as the service we receive at Hob (my daughter loves the experience too and refuses to go anywhere else).

Laurance has been doing my hair for around 25 years and I would be reluctant to let anyone else near it. Laurence is a great cutter and stylist and I would highly recommend him.

The best salon and staff ever. From the moment you enter, Adam is always welcoming, and every staff member says a warm hello, special mention to Laurence too.
Christie is a superb stylist who makes you feel comfortable and always listens to how you want your hair cut and styled.
The salon is always clean and tidy, with a great atmosphere which is down to all the staff there!

Disappointed and ripped off

Appointment verified by Shortcuts Software

I have been doing highlights for twenty years yet this was the Worst highlights experience ever! 4 hours of agony and nothing else... to begin with the Strips of foil covered my eyes and forehead completely. I felt dizzy and hot so had to ask him to clip the foils backwards. My hair was tangled so badly that it took them ages to untangle while shampooing. It hurt so bad that I have a sore head and a dull headache even five days later. New way of ripping clients off is to charge them for toner? Why was I charged for that when It should be part of the highlights process. I told him I don’t want blond highlights and yet they were blond so toner had to be used to correct the colour! £170 and my reddish looking hair later when I was about to leave I was asked to pay £5 for PPE. I said why wasn’t I told this before, he just said ‘i don’t know’.
This is unacceptable! Please explain why are you asking clients to pay for this?? we pay more money to come to your salons expecting better service. No other hair salon or barbers are charging extra for towels and coats. What’s next? We will have to pay for combs too ?

I had Alicia do my highlights and she did an incredible job! I haven’t had colour in my hair for years and she did it just what I wanted. Christie has cut my hair for years and as always did a fantastic cut I love it! Everyone in the salon was following guidelines and it was very clean.

Been having my hair cut by Laurence for nearly 25 years, as he’s younger than me I don’t have to worry about somebody else cutting my hair in the future. Hobs have done great job in making the salon Covid safe. I’m totally confident with the measures they have put in place and am happy in the environment they have created.

Christie was absolutely brilliant! Although not my normal stylist, she had clearly spoken with (and watched) Nicole previously and therefore knew exactly what I wanted doing. But she also had the added pressure of doing my first post-lockdown cut! Yet, it was almost as though Nicole had done it - it was excellent!! Thank you so much! The whole experience was really reassuring, given the wider environment, with the whole team wearing protective equipment. I’d highly recommend Christie and the rest of the brilliant team at HOB Whetstone - easily the best salon around!!
