I visited the lovely Joe Johnson yesterday & what he has done with my hair is just amazing - I'm so happy ???? The colour is so cleverly placed yet really vibrant at the same time, he's a real magician with his colour techniques & the cut is sassy & swishy - thank you so much! I look forward to my next visit. Great head massage from Nicole too ????

I've been visiting William Charles since I moved to the area. The preliminary shoulders and neck massage is sublime but yesterday's hair cut from the gorgeous Frankie was nothing short of delicious. The atmosphere is conducive to relaxing almost to the point of transporting. And then Frankie took four months of hair from my head and about twenty years. I just let her go to town and her magic scissors shaped me into a new bloke. I really didn't want to leave except for the pressing need of my teenage daughter's approval. "Wow! Cool Dad!" That's good as it gets.
Would I recommend them. Hell yes. With bells on. They are a first class, contemporary, cool salon in a sleepy Kentish Town.

Entering the salon feeling as usual under pressure and a bit fractious and dowdy; I was soon soothed by the William-Charles team; Latte, Head and shoulder massage. Then a fabulous hair cut and bang on trend blow dry by the enormously skilled Rona.
I left with beautiful hair; feeling fabulous, sexy and with a twinkle in my eye. This is my experience of the William-Charles effect.

And when I returned home my husband said I looked stunning- particularly the blow dry! And our 11yr old son thought my hair was awesome.

deafening silence to complaint

Based on reviews I went armed with iPad photos and magazine pictures to ensure colour I wanted and cut would be crystal clear. After a bill of £216 I left saying I needed more "warmth" as in the salon I looked very mousy. Next morning I cried.The gold/caramel/honey highlights were non existent and instead a dull salt and pepper ashy mousey helmet sat on my head. My email to this salon on Wednesday has had no response . The staff are charming and attentive but for me the results even had a friend ask if I had "had a go" myself. I shall now buy a supermarket colour to try to lift the dreary colour and use another salon to give me what i had stressed I wanted..DARK ROOTS/RICH WARM SLICES.
I did tell ***** that I had in the past, received similar colours to those she suggested for the roots and these had resulted in a pinky plum colour against the scalp. Of course I now have exactly what I predicted and ***** said "next time" we could go a couple of tones darker and also add some warmth (which is what I paid for at that appointment)
Utterly disappointed and look like I have had wood ash combed through my hair. Fair skinned this makes me look ill and as am now going through as IBD attack, pretty cross about the whole experience. When I wrote the morning after I did expect a response (of some sort). Instead, not a thing. Not what I call professional though others may just accept this from a suburban salon.

Always great service, always great colour and cut. They all make you feel extreme welcome, and nothing is too much trouble. It's also a great team and you can tell all the staff love Rona and Russell. Rona will work in my hair as long as it takes so she and I are completely happy. Would never go anywhere else.

Yesterday I went into William Charles and from start to finish I was made to feel truly welcome. I had my hair transformed in a few hours from an over coloured black, which was gently cleansed out to a gorgeous copper/brown. Followed by a botanical treatment which has made my hair feel amazing. I feel back to 'me' with my new hair. All the staff looked after me so well and I loved the experience. Rona, Russell, Joe and team really understand your feelings and the true meaning of customer service. See you in 4 weeks

If I could, I’d come here every week to get my hair ‘done’. Because I always leave feeling like a million dollars. Rona understands my tricky hair and how to cut it so that it keeps its style and looks natural. On the subject of natural, the colour is fabulous. My natural blonde is even more natural now! Everyone compliments me on my hair but really Rona should take all the credit.
It’s more than just a cut. All the staff are friendly; the service is excellent. I love the head massage – so relaxing. Endless teas and coffees. It feels more like dropping in on friends than going to a formal salon.
I am proud to tell people that Rona at William Charles salon ‘does’ my hair.
