Lauren is amazing! She has worked wonders on my hair over the last year and it’s healthier than it’s ever been.
I knew I fancied a change this time and trusted Lauren to do whatever she wanted. 5 inches off and now a brunette and I feel great!
It’s clear that all the team love working there and you’re always made to feel welcome by everybody.
They have taken Covid really seriously and the salon is always spotless.
I won’t be going anywhere else!

As always a brilliant service from Emily. She has done amazing work to correct my previous home dye attempts. I honestly wouldn't go anywhere else now.
The atmosphere is really friendly and welcoming and their prices are very fair.

I always have a great experience and my hair always looks and feels gorgeous after Lauren has worked her magic on it. I have naturally curly hair and a lot of it but she manages to control it!

Emily is a lovely and friendly young lady and did an amazing hair cut for me. Emily made my two girls feel like princesses they both love feeling like they are being pampered while they have their hairs done and can't wait for the next hair cut. The salon is really welcoming with a relaxed atmosphere and your always welcomed with a smile.
