Went from blonde to brunette at the expert hands of Sarah. Showed her pictures of what I wanted and Sarah then mixed a unique colour using lots of shades. Sarah was very thorough when colouring my, very thick, hair and then blowed dried IT beautifully. Thank you so much Sarah

Had my hair restyled from long to short with a new colour. Wayne spent a lot of time checking that my hair type and hairline were suitable to my request. The actual cut is perfect and the colour complements it beautifully, for the first time ever the finished result is exactly like the picture I bought in. Couldn't be happier.

I had a tint re growth and cut and finish yesterday with Jenny and was really happy with the end result. Jenny is a great hairdresser and a really lovely girl, easy to chat with and very professional. I showed her a picture of a cut I liked and she replicated it exactly and have had some comments today. I also received a hand massage whilst the colour was on which was a lovely surprise. The salon is always inviting and you feel well looked after.

I was recently looking for a new hair salon as mine was getting expensive but I am very particular about how my hair is cut. I am extremely pleased with The Hairdressing Company in Hitchin, the staff are friendly, skilled and actually listen to what you ask for. I have now been twice and was very pleased on both occasions with my experience and the cut. The salon itself is clean, professional and beautifully decorated, plus the massage chairs while getting your hair washed are a lovely indulgence to the experience. I would and have already recommended this salon and my hairdresser Maggie multiple times. The prices are competitive but I believe you get what you pay for, great value.

Not happy with the cut

Lovely colour. Wanted a trim to tidy my usual bob (which was far longer at the front than at the back) and came out with a really short bob which is all the same length and not at all similar to what i walked in with. I had a different stylist for colour and cut and whilst I had a consultation for the colour I didn't for the cut. Might sound dramatic but I don't want to leave the house as I feel really ugly. Moral of the story...don't let anyone cut your hair without doing a consultation.

I am a hairdressers 'nightmare'... I don't really have a specific 'hair cut', I don't really do hair full atop if I'm honest... and I only go to the hairdressers when it's been far too long or just feel lile it...
I just felt like it today! I really like this salon in Hitchin. Nice people, goid music, lovely hair products (heavenly smell in my opinion)
I thoroughly recommend it!
