The best hair I have ever had. I wasn’t quite sure what I wanted but I didn’t want anything that looked too ‘fake’. Fabia done me the most gorgeous highlights that look so natural and I couldn’t be happier.

Really happy with my new haircut which I got as a last minute special offer and was booked in the very next day.
I’ve been trying to grow the colour out so have been pulling it back and not showing it off anyway. Now, however, very pleased with the face framing layers.

I’ve been a loyal client of this salon for years as I love the experience, the quality of the service and the friendliness and attentiveness of the owners and their staff. A few days ago I had a makeup and hair session with a new member, Breanna and I couldn’t be more satisfied!She is very talented and even shared lots of useful tips! Thank you for the amazing experience!

Mud Treatment

Appointment verified by Premier Software

I have now had two mud treatments and am so pleased with the results so far. My scalp is not so red and inflamed, it feels more alive now. I have very fine hair and already it is looking better and feels thicker. I wish I had known about this treatment a long time ago. Anna is so knowledgeable and explains everything about what is happening to your scalp/hair. I cannot recommend this treatment enough

Appointment verified by Premier Software

Visiting Unique is like being pampered for an hour
Anna gave my tired dry hair a divine fragranced mask which made it feel amazing so light and soft. We discussed how I’d like my hair trimmed and me and my hair could feel the difference and tried a more modern and natural looking style. As always it really suits my face my hair and my personality. Anna is so brilliant at what she does and always makes me feel great for the rest of the day and beyond because my hair looks so good, and this is not exaggerating as I’m writing this review in the evening and despite being out in wind and rain twice my hair still looks and feels great.

Went to ask about my hairloss as I was going bald.. I was embarrassed when I went in to make appointment but was made to feel comfortable immediately I entered the salon with a friendly warm welcome.
I've been visiting weekly for treatment now and my hair is so much thicker and growing wells much healthier.
Also have my hair coloured instead of doing it myself and ruining my hair.
So pleased my son referred me there.

Great advice

Appointment verified by Premier Software

I have very fine short hair, Mariastella understood my ‘frustrations’ and had some great advice regarding colour, styling and the possibility of having a perm to give my hair body (she assured me they have changed a great deal since the 80’s!) have booked in for a colour and getting my hair a little longer for a perm. The first time ever since a hairdresser gave me some options rather than just bleaching my hair and keeping it really short. Thank you

Had my hair coloured by Michael today. Had a complete transformation, with fantastic results. Michael with his knowledge and experience helped me choose the right colours. I’m so so happy with the results. His lovely wife Anna finished it off with a fabulous cut and blow dry. The salon is clean, modern and staff very friendly. I will 100% be returning.
