Where do I begin? From the moment I step in the door I always feel a special atmosphere and made to feel very welcome 😊
I have had a few concerns about my hair lately, hair loss etc but I always look forward to my appointments as Nanci listens to me, advises me and gives me valid reasons for my worries!
I literally leave my hair in Nanci’s capable hands and I always leave the salon feeling / looking so much better!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you Nanci for everything that you do for me!!
I’m never disappointed 👍👌xx
My hair today looks amazing, despite getting caught in a downpour as soon as I left 🙄x
Happy Weekend Nanci and everyone else 😊

I had Nanci (colour) and Stephen (cutting). This was the first time I had my hair attended to by both . They were both most careful and attentive. Checking before I had anything done about what I needed. Very happy indeed with the final result which was a breath of fresh air and new ideas.

My first having my hair done at Rudhair and it did not disappoint. I went in for a restyle which I discussed with Jess. Together we decided on a new cut that Jess executed with perfection! Jess even showed me how to do beach curls!

After having my hair done at home for a couple of years, I decided to start getting it done professionally. The first salon I approached wouldn't do what I wanted and wanted to change my style, RudHair was next in my list and the staff there could not have been happier to keep my style but just tidy it up. I am extremely happy with the communication my stylist gave me throughout my treatment and the result was perfect. Thank you for respecting my style!

Thank you Angie for being available when I couldn't see Gabriella. You and Steve are not my B Team for a great cut. You're both always awesome and magic with the scissors. Angie, spot on with colour! (I'm going to stop gushing but never have I ever been to a salon like this, where 3 people can tame and calm my Asian 'fro)

I regularly have my hair coloured by Nancie and after 18 months of adjusting and trying shades of blonde/brunette we’re on a journey to help my natural colour/grey start to come through. Nanci gave wise advice and worked her magic to blend my very white hairline and very dark roots perfectly with the ‘old’ coloured hair..

Stephen is an old school hairdresser which is not a criticism, in fact quite the reverse, it is an accolade to his hairdressing skills. He works with you and with your hair. Stephen can actually cut short hair with precision. It’s refreshing to find a hairdresser who doesn’t subscribe to all the social media hype telling you how you should have your hair. It is a nice change from hairdressers that think everyone wants a curly bouncy blow dry with a balayage. The salon has a nice relaxed, more mature feel, which for me is preferential.
The only slight drawback is the price, which by any standards is quite a lot. But you can choose to pay it or not! I choose to pay it.
See you again Stephen and thank you.
