Sam done an amazing job of a restyle of my hair. She advised what would be best for me and what would suit me. Sam was so pleasant, professional and totally made me feel I was in good hands. I would travel from Sunderland to here to get her to cut my hair again. That's how impressed and delighted I am. Shes made my holiday. Thanks so much.

Exactly what I’d hoped for. Elliot listened and got it totally right.
I’m transitioning from brunette to grey (major build up of box brown dye) and the fine ash highlights he has put look amazing.
It would be hard to trust anyone else with my hair.
Thank you Elliot

A friendly welcome as usual. Time taken to ensure Sam knew exactly what I wanted doing. Hair washed by Megan (think that's her name) who washes hair better than anyone else I've known. Sam cuts my hair exactly as I like it and makes sure I'm happy throughout the process. The Covid precautions are good and still maintained properly Thank you.
