I managed to have a migraine just as Mara started my colour and cut. She let me sit upstairs with the lights down and recover whilst giving me a great cut and colour. What a star

I always love my trips to West Malling, especially visiting Shine! It’s such a treat—sipping refreshments, enjoying cookies, and chatting with the lovely ladies. Maddie is my superstar—attentive, professional, and so much fun. She always makes me feel like a million dollars, and I love my hair more than ever. Thank you!

Fabulous Colour Change, Exceptional Service

Tayla

I’m a regular at Shine Hairdressers and recently visited for a complete colour change from vibrant red to a natural brunette, along with my usual haircut. This was my first appointment with India, and she was fantastic! Friendly, chatty, and highly professional, India made me feel confident discussing my hair goals. She took the time to explain the lengthy process of stripping my red colour, setting realistic expectations and being honest throughout. The transformation was a journey, but we achieved the desired result for this stage, and I’m thrilled with the outcome.
The service at Shine is always exceptional. I was regularly offered drinks and checked on during the long appointment. The salon itself is warm, inviting, stylish, and aesthetically pleasing, creating a relaxing atmosphere. All the staff are wonderful—special thanks to Claire, Charlie, Marie, Liv, Ellie, and Maddie for their friendliness and support throughout the process.
I’m already looking forward to my next visit! Highly recommend Shine Hairdressers for their top-notch service and welcoming environment.
