Colour magic

I love Mands. Not just because she’s a magician with the colour but because she really listens to your ideas and gives the most brilliant suggestions which always lead to fantastic results. She’s also lovely to chat to and a very gorgeous person. After a colour with Mands and a wash and blow dry from the sparkle that is Kat, I come home feeling like I’ve had therapy.

Booked a toner and blowdry with Willow to refresh my colour before heading abroad. Not only did I leave with much nicer hair, but the little pamper session really got me in the holiday spirit.

Mands does a terrific job on colour. So I keep going back - religiously every 4 weeks!. She has a brilliant talent of making her clients feel like she has it all under control - and judging by the consistently excellent outcome - she certainly does.

It makes a real difference that Sarah, the owner, is a real presence in the salon. She is an outstanding leader (and superb cutter) - and runs a tight and happy ship.

As a country salon with a loyal base of regulars you definitely need to get 'into the system'. Until then it can be a bit daunting to find an appointment, but once you're locked into the forward calendar you're part of the happy extended family and there's no turning back.

My appointment was nothing short of wonderful. I lucked out and got in for a haircut during my vacation here in Goring. Amanda was not only a great hair stylist, but a wonderful person to talk to through the appointment. The salon is absolutely beautiful, and I really enjoyed the massaging chair while I got my hair washed. When I return I will be booking in again!

I always look forward to my hair appointments at Albert Fields, you always walk in to a warm welcome from Zunee and get acknowledged by the established and loyal team. Sarah has cut my hair for over 20 years now, long before Albert Fields was created. She knows what to do with my curls but visiting is more than just a hair cut - its a time to pause the "to do list" relax and get looked after and have a good catch up on whats happening in our lives currently (as well as have a coffee and delicious flapjack cube!) and its always inspiring to see the amazing business, team and hub of the community Sarah has created over the many years she has now had the salon on Goring.

I have had the same hairdressers for the 30 years, but it is miles away from where I live, so decided I needed somewhere closer to home. I met with Gemma for a consultant before booking an appointment, and explained what I wanted. On the day of my appointment I was very nervous but Gemma was excellent and talked me through what she was going to do. My hair turned out brilliantly I was so pleased with it, and have definitely made the right decision.

Once again, I am delighted with my recent haircut! I can't remember exactly when I first visited Albert Fields, but a few years ago now, and I never fail to be very happy with my haircut. Amanda has always offered expert advice on style for me and has created a look that I am really happy with, and, because her cut is so cleverly done, my hair keeps looking really good through from one appointment to another. Thank you to Amanda for great style and for introducing me to Love Curl and other lovely Davines products which work so well on my hair!
