Having tried several hair salons in Leicester, this is by far my favourite one for both cut and colour. The hair colour is by Aveda, and and I believe this is more naturally derived and much better for your hair than the hair colour used by most salons. I find the colour looks much better and lasts a lot longer than hair colour I have had in other salons.
Yan the salon owner, does a really great cut and takes a lot of care to ensure the style is exactly what suits your hair and is easy to manage. The other stylists are also really skilful and experienced. A lovely friendly salon and a great service.

The apprentices are always well trained and give a lovely head massage when shampooing. The atmosphere is always relaxed and cheerful. Haircut and colour, when I have it, is always done really efficiently by friendly Nicole and I'm always happy with the result. It's not a cheap salon but you pay for what you get which is high quality in a relaxed and friendly place which seems to be very good on time keeping.

Lovely. Seperate for ladies who wish too. Dyed roots but forehead n cheeks got dye on that wouldn't come off. Too many levels off service working on one job. So got different effects on back colour. Not many products used as some stylists elsewhere do. Like frizz control etc. Otherwise ok. Bit steep!

She really listened and took on board what I wanted and gave me some great healthy hair tips and was very knowledgable. Always look forward to the head massage when my hair was washed.

This was my first time getting my hair cut and coloured at Yan. I have to say the whole experience was amazing! Yasmin did my hair, and from start to finish she was great, the results are phenomenal and I have already booked my next 2 appointments! I would recommend this salon to anyone wanting a great cut, in a great environment with amazing staff! Could not fault it.

Expert advice for a hair-cut wimp

Anonymous
3rd Jul 2017

For someone who really struggles with getting their hair cut owing to some bad choices of hair cut in the past, I have to say how refreshing it was to get my (well over due) mop chopped on Saturday.

I have thin, blonde hair and I normally find that hairdressers don't take my thin locks into account when cutting it, often leaving it lifeless and almost thinner than it was to start with. But Samantha Stevenson and (her amazing blue tipped fringe ????) put me at ease immediately and provided individual advice for a hair cut-phobic

Hair looks and feels fab and I got myself some good styling tips as well. Thanks Yan (and Sam)

I brought my daughter Grace into the salon for the first time today, from the very outset she was made to feel at ease & welcome. Nicole was fantastic with her, asking her lots of questions to assertion exactly what she wanted doing. She left the salon totally in love with her hair, swinging her new length of hair as she walked off down the road. She's only 14yrs old but she was given a grown-up pampering experience that left her feeling good about herself. I loved her hair too!!! What's not to like? Thank you Nicole you were amazing!!!
