I have only been a client recently.
Kris cuts my hair (possibly half a dozen times) and I love it. He listens to what I want even though in a short space of time I have changed my style he suggests and every time my hair looks amazing.
Also my hi lights are probably one of the best I’ve had . I’m 73 I’ve had a lot of hi lights. I think Chloe does them.
Thank you
