Had my hair cut and coloured today this Sade. Sade always gives excellent advice on best colours to suit and cut my hair exactly as per the picture I showed her. I came away feeling amazing and have had numerous comments on how lovely my hair looked. Can't recommend Sade highly enough. In fact the whole experience at Academy is lovely as all staff very professional and welcoming

I thought I would give Academy a try as my usual barber was extremely busy and i didn't have time to wait. I popped in to Academy on the off chance they could squeeze me in and was greeted by a lovely young lady called Melanie. She was extremely helpful and sat me down with a coffee while she arranged for one of the other girls to cut my hair. Candice took me through and washed my hair before giving it a cut and making me look presentable once again. I was extremely happy with the end result and will definitely be coming here form now on instead of my usual barber. Thanks Girls and keep up the good work!

I've been coming here for a couple of years now and always leave feeling relaxed, pampered and pleased with the cut and colour. The salon itself is clean and tidy and despite being a fairly small salon it never feels cluttered. The staff are all efficient and Christine is a knowledgeable stylist - I definitely feel in safe hands. I would happily recommend to anyone.

Georgia at The Academy has been doing my hair for a few years and I'm very particular about a hairdresser. I think that's what many feel when they find someone who just "gets" your hair. And I can walk there. Perfect . Great salon and great welcome. Even more so as my God daughter Mimi
