Staff are all lovely but colour left on too long waited about 30 mins. My hair is porous so takes fast. Same colours used as last visit but great when done by Emma. This time made roots go orange but could have been a bad mix as being returned to supplier. Then had to have a chemical solution put through hair to try to remove some of the colour, this made my scalp burn. Did not remove all of the orange unfortunately. Head is still sore today. Found the stylist very rough when washing hair. Today did not enjoy my visit. Not charged for visit as went wrong. Apology received. Would I go back yes but only to have hair done by another stylist. Previous visits all good.

I was pleased with the final outcome of her cutting me Bob. Nicole discussed with me what would look suitable as I wasn't sure. She blowed it into a nice shape and I was grateful she trimmed it shorter at the end when I asked for a bit more length off. Overall I'm pleased.

I took my daughter for a drastic hair change she wanted. Her hair is really thick and wild. She is also special needs. From the beginning of booking the appointment everyone did everything they could to accommodate her. She smelt the products, she enjoyed her head massage and Aiga took extra time to ensure she was happy the whole time.
Thanks everyone, we will be back for sure!
