Having my hair cut by Elsie is one of the few things that is firmly ringfenced in my diary! She has been putting up with my indecision for years now and always gives me sound advice and a super result. I trust her 100% - as did my Mum, who really liked her too. In fact I think it’s how I came to give her skills a try when she was a fairly new stylist at The Chapel. Haven’t looked back and she now also cuts and colours my daughter’s hair too. She’s a gem x

Ian spent a lot of time assessing and consulting on what I was looking for for my hairstyle. He executed it perfectly, professionally and personalby. He shared his observations about the direction of my hair growth and type and styling tips to manage the style on my own (I have never experienced this). Technically the cut appears outstanding. Sharp, trendy, edgy and manageable. He listened to the brief and delivered. A very nice person who is sincere and genuine. I enjoyed my experience with him today.

Elsie always cuts my hair perfectly. I have had bad experiences in the past with hairdressers & my hair is now the best it’s ever been. Elsie spends a lot of time talking things over & discussing what will & won’t work with my hair & really listens to me.

It’s a wonderfully welcoming place, James is very knowledgeable, very skilful and very easy to talk to. He has given me a wonderful cut and the advice I have needed for too long about my colour.

Chapel is a sanctuary. I feel so cared for. Sarah knows exactly how to work with my hair. My colour is so natural and the cut leaves me with a low maintenance daily routine. I could not recommend her enough. Although.. maybe I shouldn’t be so honest, in case that means it will be harder to get an appointment with her!
