The best products, expert training, a friendly team alongside late night opening and teaching you how to recreate the salon style at home are all part of the service at Yan Hair.

The continued success of the salon is based on the simple principle that whether it’s your first, or your hundredth visit the service will make you want to come back again and again. As the team say “We don’t just want people to love their hair but also the experience.”

I have been going to Yan for my hair for almost 21/2 years. Always greeted with warmth by reception. Today the service is no different as I have not been for almost 3 months. Good cut, lovely service, and I trusted my stylist to work with my natural hair.

Visited Yan for the first time this afternoon, being dissatisfied with my previous hairdressers. Robert took time and care assessing the suitability of my chosen style for my hair type. I absolutely love my new cut and will definitely become a Yan regular.

This was my first visit and my stylist was Nicole. I was particularly impressed with the friendliness and atmostphere of the salon. Nicole was very attentive and kept checking with me throughout that I was happy with what she was doing. I will definitely be back perhaps for highlights next time and intend to introduce my partner. We live in Blaby.

I've been a regular at Yan's for too many years to mention and they always do a great job. Yan and Rob lead an excellent team of well trained and managed staff who are happy to advise and who offer great service too (particularly Yasmin).The Aveda products are lovely and I always leave feeling well looked after and treated in a friendly and professional manner.

I went to yans and had my hair styled up by nicole, she was very bubbly and enthusiastic and definately made my experiance enjoyable. It only took about 30 minutes to do my hair and she did a brilliant job. It stayed in all day. I had it half up with it curled, and I really liked it and everyone complimented it.

I have NEVER experienced such an experience that was the experience I experienced with the stylist 'Remi'. Her hands became one with the scissors as she worked her magic through my follicles. Not only did the masterful stylist revitalise and rejuvenate my before pitiful barnet but she educated me in the art and the subtle differences of cortex, medulla and cuticle. I came away from my Remi 'treatment' on a high that lasts to this day. What a sincere sensation. I fully intend to nominate 'Saint' Remi to be the first, and only, Patron Saint of Hair Styling.

When I needed a new hairdresser a friend recommended Yan. Looked at the website & gulped a bit as I was a £10 a time girl! BUT worth every pound. Jess is a Yan graduate & did a fantastic job on my hair. She made a point of discussing me, my hair & what I wanted before making a move. The massage chair at the back wash was a wonderful bonus, as was the head massage when she put the conditioner in. Have just come home from my 2nd visit & am as pleased as I was the first time. Going back again in September.

Yasmin cut my hair today & as ever she's done a fantastic job. When Yasmin started to cut my hair she took her time to get to know me & the best way to cut my hair. She offers suggestions when I don't know what style to have next & doesn't let me have some of the more idiotic styles I might want!
I've been having my hair cut at Yan for over 3 years. The service is always excellent & the staff are friendly & welcoming.
I can't recommend Yasmin & Yan's enough.

Fantastic experience from start to finish. The lady on the reception who welcomes you in makes you feel really special from the moment you walk through the door. It doesnt end there with a choice of lovely refreshments and amazing complimentary head massages to follow. Always pleased with my cut/colour when I leave the salon. Today I had Craig washing my hair/looking after me and Remi doing my cut/colour - both did a great job :) thankyou

I've been coming to YAN hair salon for 17 years and have NEVER had a bad experience. The service is genuinely second to none and the highly knowledgeable team - every one of them - makes me feel assured that I'll get the same great service, no matter who looks after me or my family (my daughter, aged 7, really appreciates the 'experience' she gets from a cut at YAN's. Even my husband claims he's never able to get a better cut than the one he gets at YAN. Oh, and the Aveda products are a staple in our home too. We all use it and the prices are as competitive as any high street Aveda outlet. No matter what game my hair's playing (pre/post pregnancy etc), Rob always come ls up with the perfect product to sort it out. As you can probably guess, I'd recommend this salon to anyone - I travel a 40 mile round trip and I'd travel further if I had to!
