Lovely salon, horrible stylist
3.8

I would fully recommend this salon. It is lovely. However, my stylist ***** was horrendous. I take great care of my hair but naturally it is very dry, I have recently had a baby which meant a) I couldn’t go the the hairdressers for a while b) my hair turned even drier due to normal pregnancy hormones. ***** made me feel horrible when I was in that chair. I saw her in the mirror combing my hair then stopping, looking away, holding her arms up then shaking her head as if she was so disgusted and didn’t know what to do. She kept making snarky comments and I felt awful. I was so embarrassed and won’t be going back as I don’t even want to see her face again, so rude and entitled. It is a lovely salon though, just avoid booking this stylist though.

Amazing !! Highly recommend....my first time at this salon and it was the best. I had Callum...very honest, welcoming and done a fab job on my hair. Being blonde I can never find the right people to get that bright shade but Callum did just that ...so cheap, cheerful, and brilliant at there work! I’ll definitely be back. A******

Bad experience not going again
1.0

Bad experience ever. A total of 3 calls made to get my booking done. I explained over the phone what I want- long hair wet cut and finish and explained wanting layers. Booked the appointment with *****. On my online booking account it said the appointment is for 45 min worn Sadie and not 30 min. When I turned up as the last appointment of the day at 6.30 I was told that it would have to be booked as a complete redesign and that it would cost close to 20£ more. All I was told was that she doesn’t have time to complete this appointment but offered her colleague who had one hour but a increase in price. What’s frustrating as a first time customer is that there was no courtesy to correct the error on their part but a straightforward explanation to say you have to pay more or you can try getting a hair cut with a graduate stylist. You can imagine how this has inconvenienced me despite having called multiple times to make sure I got the booking done correctly on the phone. Bad customer service. Left not wanting to go there ever again. Clearly it’s seemed like a case of clock watching and yet the online system said that I have 45 min for the wet design I had booked with Sadie

Impromptu Nail Visit

Initially felt very unsure but was made really welcome by everyone there. I was due to see Krystal but at the last minute Rosie stepped in as Krystal was busy. A lovely lady with a very 'put you at ease' personality. I was happy with the offer for shellac and was really pleased with the result. I wouldn't hesitate to go to this salon again.

It was my 12 year old Daughter’s first salon experience. She had her hair washed, cut and blow dried by Crystal and love every minute of it. Crystal was really friendly and talked to my daughter on her level, which I found excellent. Will definitely be bringing my daughter back for her next trim. Thank you.

The most perfect Pamper Day !
I was lucky enough to spend the entire day with the very lovely team at So .... they catered for my every need with some lovey surprises along the way .
Kicking off the day with a full body massage with Katie followed by a facial with Rosie I was certainly relaxed as I headed off for my new head of hair with Sadie ! Lunch was rounded off with a glass of fizz ahead of my pedicure & manicure with Bella ! Thank you all .... If Carlsberg did Pamper days .......
