Worst salon experience

Ananya Rangan
23rd Jul 2017

We have been clients of Academy for 13 years. This particular appointment that my daughter had was an extremely unpleasant one. My daughter came home with hair cut to an uneven length and was upset by the manner in which she had been treated by *****. I was told that ***** was in a huge rush and at one point combed over my daughter's eye very roughly. It hurt my daughter and could have caused a serious injury to her eye. We complained to the salon and they arranged for John to redo my daughter's hair. He had to wash and cut it again as it had been done so badly. John was lovely but I didn't get an apology from the manager. I am still shocked that my daughter who has been coming g to you since she was five, had such an an awful experience with one of your hairdressers. Totally unacceptable and utterly disappointing.

Disappointing Customer Service

Clare Ellis-Brown

I had an appointment which I had booked online for 5pm. I received a text reminder telling me it was 4pm. I called the salon to say I had booked online and was sure I had booked for around 5. They weren't very helpful and I eventually had to cancel my appointment as I was unable to make 4pm. When I got home and checked the screenshot I had taken of my booking and the email confirmation I had received, both confirming my appointment at 5pm. I called the salon back to tell them and the lady I spoke to really didn't care and wasn't apologetic at all. She sounded like she was sitting at the other end of the phone rolling her eyes. When I asked her how this could happen she said she didn't know and would have to call the it people who could look at the details of the booking. She said she would call me back Monday. Needless to say - no phone call. I understand computer systems go wrong sometimes and I would even understand if someone had changed the appointment and forgotten to tell me. However, I don't understand poor customer service and I dont want to return to the salon.

John is an outstanding hairdresser. Speaking as a guy you know someone is good when you like the cut and then do it consistently the same each time. He's also a pleasure to chat too. Highly recommended.

Blow dry

I hurt my back so needed just a blow dry as couldn't easily do it on my own. My regular hair salon was too busy to help but The Academy was able to fit me in very quickly. I went in with wet hair, so literally just had a blow dry. The stylist was very friendly and did a nice job, although she dropped the brush twice on the floor, picked it up and continued to use it on my hair which was a bit off putting considering there was other people's hair on the floor.
The total paid was £52. I think this is far too much for just a blow dry, even though my hair is long. I was expecting to pay in the region of £30. The price was not adjusted, considering I did not have it washed at the salon. I questioned the price as I paid but was told that it was correct. I don't think I would return.
