This is a unique and most enjoyable experience from the moment you enter the door into Julia's large, airy and charming, unhurried space. Large windows grace each wall facing gorgeous historic buildings and a majestic tree. The interior design has been beautifully carried out with Farrow and Ball walls and a twinkling, grand chandelier. The lighting is superb in fact. One of the windows features a most original display using clever hopps that ring the seasons and change to give ambiance and interest with great artistey. Coffee is served with an accompanying glass of water and nothing os too much trouble to make you welcome. Julia is a consummate stylist. She has immense skill in cutting with precision and finesse. Hair is teased and controlled with seeming ease. Colouring, shampooing and conditioning are all carried out using products rich in natural resources, and the Pure range is, as its name suggests. Julia's staff are friendly, keen and ambitious. As such, they aspire to Julia's high standards and are visibly interested in perfecting their craft. What is more, for those clients in need of help with hair loss, whether partial or total, Julia has a discrete room amid the excellent space, for a sensitive discussion with her during which she can advise with products as well as a large number of wigs that can be shaped to suit the client, if they opt to go that route, temporarily or otherwise.

I recommend this salon most highly.
