Great head massage from Tom who also displayed great customer service skills. He informed me about online booking and offers on the phone. Cut by Chantelle was great. She listened to what i wanted and dos just that, unlike many hairdressers. She advised me on what would suit me and other options. Great salon and will definitely be going there from now on.

I have been going to Yans for three years and have always had a fantastic cut by Liss! I have really short almost pixie hair and she always does a great job which I get lots of compliments on.
The salon is always a friendly and relaxing place to be the back wash with legs raised and the massage on is FANTASTIC!
Well worth the money!

I have been using yans for a few years now, as I can always depend on chantelle to colour and style my hair beautifully. my work colleagues and friends, family have commented how they like the colour/cut.
I always enjoy the head massage and massage chair.
the staff are always polite and courteous. drinks and reading materials are always offered.

Hair colour pricing

Hi I have had my hair coloured With you 4 times and come in very regularly to by aveda products.
On the last 3 occasions I was charged the same price for the same amount of work but when I had my hair coloured on Monday, I was going to be charged £75 instead of my usual £35.
In my consultation I made it very clear that I wanted exactly what amber did the last time I came in because I loved it so much. The stylist had a copy of what Amber had done in her hand so it should of been clear what was required.
Upon paying I was asked to pay £75. I was shocked at this and was initially told that you had a price increase. I don't mind price increases but over 100%?
I was then told that you've had a new system put in and Amber had not charged me for certain services that you provided on Monday, if this is the case then how come my bill was vertually the same on 3 seperate occasions? That's not a one off mistake.
In the end you charged me £61.50 and told me you were not going to cha

Hi Lucy Firstly apologies for the confusion over your colour payment. I have gone through your records to ensure I understand the situation and the discrepancy between payments. It appears on the 3 previous occasions you were grossly under charged for the colour services you received. This stylist is no longer with us so I am unable to speak to her to find out why you were charged for a basic regrowth colour, 3 times, instead of a colour with highlights/ Ombre, which is the service you received on those occasions.
The correct charge for the service you have received is £71 and on 3 occasions you have been charged incorrectly.
I hope this clarifies the situation for you and thank you for your feedback,
Kindest Regards Robert

My stylist was friendly and lovely to chat to, at first I was happy with my hair but the more I looked at it after I got home the more I realised it was definitely not worth the 111 pounds I paid as it did not look like what I asked for and my friends said they couldn't even tell a difference in the colour of my hair, which is not what you expect to hear after spending that much money. Great service and atmosphere though.

I went in for a cut and full head colour with some highlights. I have a lot of gray hair and was told by the advanced stylist that they would be covered no problem. I spent 5 hours there and 2 colour sessions later, I still left with gray hairs on show. I was told to have another skin test and have my hair coloured the third time! I

With my hair being so dry already this was not an option for me. Very sad and upset I left the salon long after everyone had gone with emptied pockets for something I was very unhappy with.

As Always, today's visit left me feeling relaxed and very well looked after. Quite simply, each of the staff do everything they can to make you feel as comfortable and welcome as possible, which is why I have continued to remain a loyal customer for the last 17 years. Today's hand massage (from Michaela) was an absolute treat and was a great start to my visit. But, without question, it is Claire's skill in making my hair look exactly how I want it to look, her attention to detail and her incredible customer service that means I always leave happy. And, I couldn't leave a review without mentioning the absolutely fabulous Kate who always offers a welcoming smile and ensures that I've had a positive experience.
