I normally hate going to the hairdressers but visiting The Chapel is a totally different experience from start to finish. I was welcomed, shown round, given goodies and loved the whole experience. Orla was totally delightful, and totally got me - so I left feeling enhanced, not questioning who I was. Will definitely be back

I’ve been seeing Beckie for more than 10 years for my lowlights and root touch-ups and she always does an exceptional job. Her professionalism and high level of experience are evident in every appointment. Beckie is not only skilled but also incredibly client-focused - she really takes the time to understand what you want and delivers results that exceed expectations. She’s warm, approachable, and has a great ability to build strong relationships with her clients, which makes every visit a pleasure. I would highly recommend Beckie to anyone looking for a colourist they can trust.

I love seeing Kirsty each time for my appointment - She makes me feel so relaxed. I have never trusted anyone with my hair as I suffer from OCD.

It is so nice to be able to leave the salon and not fiddle of measure to check my hair is straight. Kirsty makes me feel so relaxed and I can always tell her if there is a little bit that is niggling me and she won’t let me leave the seat until I am happy that my OCD won’t be triggered.

Thank you so much Kirsty - you are the best!!

I have been visiting The Chapel for nearly five years, I love the atmosphere when you arrive, it is a warm welcoming feeling, I often arrive early but that’s never a problem I can comfortably sit and wait, usually with a tasty latte!
I have had the same stylist, Rhys, I feel more of a friend than customer. He always cuts my hair exactly how I ask, I feel like if I asked for something impossible he would tell me. I trust him implicitly and don’t even really watch, we are usually chatting about our love of Vinted. I’ve never had a problem but feel like if I did I would be comfortable to talk to Rhys.
I like that I can talk about products without feeling pressured to purchase.
I always have a great haircut, but for me it’s the whole experience.

I’ve really struggled to find a hairdresser over the last few years. Having curly hair can be tricky – I’ve tried wet cuts, dry cuts, you name it – but nothing seemed to work. My curls always ended up limp, frizzy, and just… disappointing. Then I found Sarah – what a difference! She gets curly hair. She knows exactly how to cut and care for it, and for the first time in ages, I have my curls back! Beyond the amazing results, the whole experience in the Chapel salon is such a treat. From the healthy shots to the thoughtful little extras, you truly feel looked after. I always leave feeling not just happy with my hair, but totally uplifted. So glad I found Sarah – she’s a curly hair lifesaver!
