Thank you so much I had the nicest experience yesterday. I had a huge colour change and felt really listened to. The staff are the nicest people. The atmosphere was just perfect. The apprentices were so helpful and polite. My children had cuts and they made the girls feel grown up and special. I would highly recommend this salon and the staff just make your experience. Thanks again

with very naturally curly hair it had been very hard to find a stylist that could cut and style my hair to wear everyday without tying it up, Holly totally understands my hair and the cut is always beautiful and easy to manage.

I am 17 months old and my hair was very long. It was only my 2nd time visiting a hair salon but I was looked after so well. I was given lots of biscuits and Louise was very smiley and we sang wheels on the bus together. She was lovely and I gave her a high five at the end.
