Thanks for today Amber. You had your work cut out both metaphorically and physically. I won't leave it so long next time. Thanks for your investment of time, care and consideration today. Great cut and style. I recommend this lady very highly!

It’s not easy to make a wash ‘n blow dry feel like a spa treatment but Amber always manages to, plus I think she secretly enjoys my stories of 80’s “crimping” and green hair gel! Quintessential and all the staff are simply “essential” if you want to look good. Thanks ladies, Kirstie

First time at the salon, and definitely not the last. Helen expertly transformed my mousey regrowth of several months with creamy and warm tones, followed by a superb cut and finish leaving me with a classy blonde head of hair. Excellent salon, lovely friendly staff, can’t fault the place at all. Great to get such amazing service outside of London. I’ll be back, and thank you Helen!!!

A badly needed haircut from Amber today. This young lady was, as always, very accurate and very precise. She also took her time, showing me great care and consideration. Which made the whole experience utterly relaxing. The end result was outstanding, and I have no hesitation whatsoever in highly recommending Amber. The team at Quintessential are incredible which creates the wonderful atmosphere that exists here. Well worth a visit. Many thanks for today Amber. See you soon.
