Fantastic experience at Quintessential Hair Salon. I came in for a simple consultation to check if anything could be done to a short haircut I wasn't happy with. I hardly had to say anything for Helen and Charlotte to spot what I was unhappy about, and I left with a nice cut which I very much like. Thank you so much, I will definitely be back! Justine

Today Camny transformed my hair, she was very helpful and explained to me what she was going to do. The girls couldn't do enough for me always asking if I was ok, did I want anything else . The salon had a friendly atmosphere and the girls are very knowledgable. I am very fussy about my hair and I CANT RECOMMEND THE SALON ENOUGH! It's a great place. I will 100% be going back

What a lovely welcome to the salon. Coat taken, coffee offered, advised when my stylist would be ready. A super friendly professional team. One of the best I have experienced since my move from Berkshire. Ria cut and blow dryed my hair exactly as I had requested. No push to purchase products used. Although I did by a volume spray. Absolutely delighted even booked a facial for early next month. Well done ladies first class service.

A lovely relaxed experience today having my hair cut, dried and straightened by Charlotte. I have long curly (messy) hair which as if by magic was transformed into smooth sleek flowing locks!
She is amazing and I would highly recommend a visit to Quintessential to everybody!
Many thanks.

I've been having my hair cut & blow dried by Helen now for a couple of years & have always come away feeling very satisfied. I get lots of compliments & friends asking where I go. One of my best friends now goes to Helen & is also very pleased after trying several salons in town. Becky is also great at shaping eyebrows & doing nails. All staff very friendly. Would recommend this salon to everyone. First class.

customer relation poor

unhappy customer

Wash was uncomfortable, wasnt given neck rest and had to ask temp of water to be turned down. Even though shown pic and had discussion about what we were doing, hair cut was not what i asked for and when i asked her to change it she was quite abrupt and didnt finish the style nicely. One side is slightly longer than the other. Was straightened instead of blow dried so looks flat rather than styled. stylist didnt speak much, when i tried to start a conversation i didn't get much response, making me feel like an inconvenience. I wouldnt recommend to friends im afraid. Having my hair done is a big treat for me as i cant afford it often and it did not feel like a treat.
