There aren’t many hair dressers I would trust to look after my hair but all the team make the overall experience at Shear Desire both enjoyable and comforting.
As clients we can all agree what having the perfect hair style feels like. The staff at the salon make sure you leave feeling a million dollars. Putting their all into making sure you have the ‘desired’ look you want.
Steph’s patient and friendly nature has made what was once a terrifying ordeal going to the hairdressers, a pleasant, relaxing and joyful experience!

Dry Cut and Waxing

Nicole Hawes

Appointment verified by iSalon Software

Alice waxed my underarms which I’m sure most women absolutely regret (oh the things we do for beauty!) alas it must be done in time for the summer!
I walked in with woolly mammoth underarms ashamed and apologetic, however Alice was so professional and didn’t blink an eyelid to how hairy I was!
She used a hard hot wax and amongst my swearing and clenching and flinching in preparer for the pain, there was very little pain! It was actually a pleasure walking out of the salon with baby smooth underarms and the ability to put my arms down! Can’t thank Alice enough for the wonderful service!

Now I always feel bad for going and getting my hair cut. Steph has been my hairdresser for about ten years, and I am loyal to her, however I may be that awkward customer that “forgets” to book in or looks after their hair to a minimal state.. so when I go in, I always anticipate a good telling off, but I never do! I only ever get smiles and warm welcomes! I love having a good old catch up and chin wag with steph and I can always ask her professional opinion on what she thinks is best to suit me (as I can never decide!) So today I walked out with a full fringe; look out world I’ve got bangs!

Always a pleasure seeing all the girls, see you all very soon! Xxx
