Leah & Helen always lovely to see & especially after lockdown. I am glad to see them back after my Curly hair has got very wild & unkempt. Nice & tamed again!
Quite strange seeing it so quiet due the SD restrictions. Keep positive everyone.

Had my hair cut by Helen today.
She gave it a good sort out after 4 months of lockdown.
Everywhere was well organised and very hygienic.
Nice to have a bit of pampering!
Booked in for highlights soon. Can’t wait! ?

All so well organised ...friendly as always...a treat I will never do without xxx thanks Cammy

Covid Precautions - Well done Helen and Team

I have been very concerned about this wonderful salon during the pandemic - I needn't have worried. With her premises empty, Helen has seized the opportunity to redecorate (yet another glorious Quintessential makeover) and when it comes to Covid precautions she has not held back. Every measure has been taken to protect clients and staff alike - I even had my temperature taken on arrival. I sat metres away the other client (only 2 permitted on each floor)
and had a relaxing couple of hours - so good to be back. Well done Helen and Team - the salon looks fabulous - and so does my hair! Thank you.

First haircut since lockdown, nervous but absolutely no need! Salon and staff fully prepared and more to receive clients. Screens, protective clothing for staff and clients, hand sanitisers even plastic boxes to put clients coats in. I felt every precaution was covered together with lovely friendly service, thank you.

After a long break due to the virus it was great to have my hair attended to by the fantastic team at Quintessential. Very professional in adhering to the new cleaning & distancing rules. Still a wonderful, relaxing experience & I couldn't be happier with my hair. Claire was a lovely young lady as they all are there & worked wonders on my mop! Looking forward to my next visit, hopefully the beauty section will be open then! Thank you!

I keep changing my mind on my colour. I was a lovely blonde then I decided to go red and now I’ve gone back to blonde. Going from red to blonde without damaging the hair is a challenge but one that was excepted and 5 hours later I have blonde highlights with pulled roots. Another toner booked in for March and highlights the next time and we’ll get back to the light blonde I was before. Thanks team xxx
