Kian did a great job and was praised by Natasha when she checked his work. He's a brilliant hairdresser even before he's fully qualified. He's a nice lad who listens and does what you ask. Relaxing head massage with conditioner and a lovely hot chocolate too.

I usually have Alex cut my hair, but she’s away so I had another lady. Who was very nice,she cut my hair, as I asked for it to be done so everything was good. Somebody had to come and check her work which wasn’t a problem which I’d rather just in case, that everything was good. She done a good job and she was very friendly..

I received a wonderful gift voucher as a christmas gift and was excited to use it just to be told that i couldn’t as it had expired! No expiration date is noted on the voucher and in fact there is no information that comes with it whatsoever. Ruins what is supposed to be a nice gesture. Granted I could have used it sooner but knowing when I needed to schedule it in by would’ve helped! Been scammed of £70 plus the additional £40 I unexpectedly ended up paying!!

The appointment was professional friendly helpful and I felt very relaxed. Both Jess and Jodie were keen to understand what I was really looking for. And took their time to decide on the colours nothing felt rushed and I feel much better now I’ve had my haircut so well.

In terms of cost I would imagine it’s comparable to many of the salons of a similar calibre the atmosphere in the salon is friendly and professional and Courtney on reception was helpful as always
