I’m very upset following my appointment today. I didn’t feel listened to and I’m thoroughly disappointed with the outcome. I’m used to having my hair cut a certain way as both my parents were hairdressers and £150 later, not only have I come home in tears, my confidence has taken a hit. This is not how I’ve felt after previous appointments.

I enjoy my trips to the hairdressers as it is so relaxing. From the receptionist who greats me with a warm friendly smile, the shampooist who washes my hair and then massages my head to the stylist. Stacy always listens carefully to me and cuts my hair the way I want it. I can also ask Stacy for advice and she always gives me good advice.
