Fantastic blow dry with mehmet on Friday for my friends wedding!
The service I received from start to finish was second to none.
I had a fantastic neck & shoulder massage followed by one of the best shampoos I've ever had with Beth.
Then Mehmet took so much care and attention over my hair it lasted all day and felt amazing. I had so many complements that day it was lovely.
I will definately be sending all my friends and family along!
Thankyou everyone at William Charles! Xxx

Always very friendly and very professional, they have got that mix spot on. Made to feel welcome and special the moment you walk through the door . Sometimes salons can be trying too hard to be funky and up-beat which makes you feel overwhelmed and itching to get out , here, it's a little respite from all that nonsense! Highly recommended, been coming here for seven years and now they're stuck with me !

I came to salon upon recommendation by my friend. Being pregnant and having fine hair I wanted to use natural products where possible & find someone that would be able to look after my fine hair & keep it natural looking when cololured.

I had half head highlights with Rona and was extremely pleased with the results! Not only does the colour look great, it looks very natural and still feels great!

The little add extras such as hand, head massage & finishing touch of lip gloss makes you feel very special and pampered - will denitely be back!

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.

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
