Darren is an exceptionally talented professional who had me leave the salon feeling like a new woman. I am one of those ladies who has been having highlights with foils for 20 years and my hair was damaged and limp. Darren introduced me to gloss, a much better tone for my skin, rejuvenated hair and a cut that made my hair instantly look fuller. I am delighted.

I had the most amazing experience at Estente in Wimbledon! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and so relaxing. But the real star of my visit was my stylist, Daisy. She is an absolute gem—sweet, funny, and incredibly talented.

I came in for a balayage, and Daisy worked her magic. She really knows what she’s doing; she listened to exactly what I wanted, made thoughtful suggestions, and created the most gorgeous, seamless blend of colour I’ve ever had. My hair looks natural, bright, and effortlessly beautiful.

I walked out feeling refreshed, pampered and in such a good mood. If you’re looking for a stylist who’s not only skilled but also a joy to spend time with, Daisy at Estente is the one. Highly recommend!

Don’t miss out, this is a hairdressing salon you definitely should be going to.. having been to several salons over time without a doubt, I never come across such a talented group of hairdressers, without exception. Whatever colour or style you want , you will leave there completely satisfied and happy ..wondering, how come I never discovered ESSENTE before now,
.,The camaraderie from the Boss down to the youngest member of the team is truly inspiring and you will leave in the knowledge that what ever you want the end result will be great.

Darren did “temporary” (lasts for many weeks) hair colour for me- worked a magic where it looked almost exactly as my hair used to look, very natural, very shiny. I was - very pleased!
His cuts always last well so he is an economical option for both money and time.
Thank you Darren.
