Shine is a lovely salon, the whole team is so friendly - I always come out with amazing hair and a smile on my face. Real credit goes to Charlie, I can’t thank her enough for transforming my hair. She listens to what you want to achieve and works miracles, she always makes my hair look stunning. I wouldn’t go anywhere else since getting my hair done at Shine!

I haven't had my hair cut for at least 4 months and wanted a good chop and restyle. My daughter recommended Chloe as she is her client too. I felt relaxed and at ease with Chloe and she took the time to discuss what l was looking for and giving great advise. I am completely satisfied with my new haircut and blowdry. Chloe was very professional and friendly and l will certainly book in with her again. Thank you.

The salon is looking a bit tired in some areas, and the greeting I received from the receptionist was less than friendly.
The hair cut itself unfortunately was not at all great and has come out noticeably wonky.
