Whilst waiting for my stylist to finish with the previous client I could have done with not sitting so close as the hair dryer was noisy and kept blowing on me. However once it came to my turn I was very happy with the service, friendliness of staff and with the end result.

Was very satisfied with the colouring but not very happy with the finish of the blow dry. Was shocked at final price and feel I did not get 15% discount.I was quoted £44 20 plus blow dry. I await your reply Liz Fabretti

I always look forward to having my hair done at Contemporary. I totally trust Stephen, which is huge, love the chat, banter and his time and thought about what to try next, it means alot. Also, the wrap around service of massages, drinks etc makes this a great experience and real treat, I will always highly recommend Stephen and Contemporary to friends and family.

I have been going to Contempo hair salon for several years & always found the staff very friendly, professional & courteous. I love that when you are seated, you are offered a complimentary mini massage & a drink. The prices are fair & advice on hair care is 5 star. Sian always does a first rate job & I can always rely on her for new ideas & suggestions.

I usually have Gemma but Stephen has stepped up. Lovely hair colour and good cut. Last time Stephen had to answer the phone and speak to a walk in because of lack of junior assistance. It must be stressful but he was unfailingly polite and helpful.

As a long term customer I had no qualms about returning to the Salon after each lockdown. Due to Gemma’s really bad fall and being unable to continue with her own clients, Stephen, Chloe and Sian are keeping the Professional and very Safe running of the Salon going to the usual high standard it has always being. I normally have my hair doing by Gemma but in her absence Sian is doing a really good job... very thorough and continues to be her usual friendly self... as are Stephen and Chloe. I’m definately happy with the results and always look forward to my next appointment.
