I have been a customer at Quintessential Hair and Beauty for a few years and have always been happy with the result.
Marie is an excellent and friendly stylist who always understands and delivers exactly what I ask for.
The salon has a happy atmosphere even in these strange times and the Covid-19 precautions they have implemented are thorough and reassuring.

Going back and forth between Ludlow and London I’ve really struggled to find a great hairdresser to meet my needs for my naturally curly and very thick Chinese hair. When I explained to Helen what I would like to cater for my natural curls but also when I want to wear my hair straight, she was totally onboard and knew exactly what needed doing to my hair. I actually went to Helen to have a hair cut 10 years ago when I was a teenager and just could never find anyone who cuts hair like Helen does! Will 10/10 recommend Helen to anybody- she’s absolutely brilliant!

First time having my hair done here, very informative young lady made my tattered tresses look great again. Looking forward to my next appointment in 5 weeks. Beautiful salon, great to see how they are coping with all the new rules, hands washed and sanitised before I went into main room. Thank you Cammy, my hair looks great ❤️

I had come to Ludlow on holiday after a hectic few months at work and just hadn’t had time to have my hair done before the holiday photos started. Quintessential hair we’re able to fit me in at short notice and the salon was friendly and welcoming. Leah did an amazing job on my dry, brittle damaged hair and the treatment she recommended was amazing. Excellent cut & style - oh and all hygiene rules strictly followed. Thanks Leah, very happy.
