I was welcomed into the salon,my coat was taken and I was offered tea or coffee.As I do not drink either was offered a cold drink instead.Ruby escorted me to a chair and then asked what I was looking for today?I asked for a pixie cut,with shaved back,short around the ears and feathered fringe.Ruby asked how short for the back and what length for the top .I was then taken to have my hair washed, conditioned and a head massage if wanted.Ruby explained what products she was using and why .Ruby was very gentle when cutting my hair and chatted away ,which helped to put me at ease( I haven't been to a salon in over 20 years).Ruby finished by blow drying my hair and then put products on to fix the style( she explained what they were and what they did).I was very impressed by Ruby and the care given by the staff and would recommend this salon.

3 year old who hates hair cuts

Appointment verified by SaloniQ Software

My 3 year old hates having his haircut. We’ve been using a mobile hairdresser and it had become an awful experience for all of us. We cautiously tried the salon thinking a change may be helpful.

I cannot describe how impressed I was with Bethan. She engaged him on topics he was interested in, moved at his pace and to our amazement, managed to get him to close his eyes and even laugh. It was such a relief.

We’ve gone from holding a distraught sweaty mess to him happily trotting out of the salon and saying he will come back.

Thank you, Bethan.

This was my first time to a salon in a long time, probably a good couple of years since. I had my haircut . I was incredibly nervous , I am a very anxious person and I find salons incredibly overwhelming. Bethan was incredible, all of the staff were kind and helpful. Bethan went above and beyond with making me feel comfortable & heard during my appointment, this is the best salon I’ve ever been to and her empathy and kindness was so appreciated. I will definitely be returning, would highly recommend this salon to anyone.

Booked an appointment with Kiara after seeing her post looking for models with short hair. Having done my own hair at home for many years salons are not my thing. However, Kiara put me at ease straight away, had a good consultation on what style I wanted and my needs for aftercare. Kiara was confident and talked me through everything she was doing and all the products that she was using. I am very happy with style that we chose and the end result.

I was anxious beforehand as I always do with new places, but as soon as I arrived, I was made to feel at ease. My stylist Anya was superb and understood both me and my hair! She talked me through each stage of the cut and I felt very reassured. I left feeling very happy with my new haircut and have had LOADS of compliments today too!

I found Darynn at the beginning of the year after going to the same salon for over 20 years, and I can honestly say he has completely transformed my hairdressing experience. I used to avoid blow-dries because they always left my hair frizzy, but Darynn knew exactly how to handle my hair from day one. He makes me look and feel amazing every time. I actually love going to the hairdresser now! Thank you, Darynn, for your skill, care, love and the confidence you give me.
