This was my first time at the Salon and I'm so happy I did some research and went with my gut on this one. I received a friendly welcome when I arrived and everything was designed around customer needs. I had one of the best cuts I've had in years and left feeling really pleased. Will definitely be back.

Gemma, and her team provide a five star service from start to finish. I trusted Gemma and her extensive knowledge from the start. She explained everything though out the visit, and made sure that I was comfortable throughout. The salon is relaxed, and everyone made me feel welcome. I'm so glad that I tried this salon, and I can't imagine going anywhere else in the future. Amazing team doing an amazing job x

Made you feel so welcome as soon as you walk in, the Salon is absolutely gorgeous and not having to stare at myself while having my hair cut was a breath of fresh air!

I hate hairdressers, avoid them at all costs. However its science is not a hairdressers its a sassy sexy salon experience! Even though this is my only my second visit I feel like I've been a long standing 10 year+ plus client!!! Nowhere else in Swansea or even Wales provides an experience like this and I honestly love the months I earn more than usual cause I know I will be booking in to see the wonderful team here
Plus unlimited cups of tea why would you not want to go?!
Thanks again lovelies!
