What an amazing experience this morning, My daughter in law had booked a facial as a treat and ftom beginning to end I thoroughly enjoyed it! Paula makes you feel special and takes time to discuss what you need and also the fabulous products. Very impressive, relaxing surroundings and Paula is extremely good I will definately book further treatments they worked and my skin was firmer and felt lifted after...I am also going to book to have my hair cut and coloured the staff are happy and approachable.

I had my hair cut with Max on 08/03/16 it is possibly the nicest experience of having my hair cut I've ever had! From start to finish I was made to feel valued and welcome to ask any questions I had without anything being too much hassle for him. They give you a nice massage to start followed by in my case my colour being added, I sat for it to set and was given full attention throughout and everything that was being done explained fully and the benefits, it was rinsed and cut just perfectly before being straightened and styled. A fabulous 5* experience will be back!!

After my last appointment with Helen my friend commented on how nice my hair looked and that my hairdresser 'certainly knew how to cut and style'. A few days later a client who I hadn't seen for a while said how much she loved my 'new look'. Then yesterday the dental nurse greeted me with 'you've had your hair cut;it looks lovely' Confidence building doesn't get better than receiving unsolicited comments like these especially as I knew that I also had ' perfectly preened brows' created by Paula. Thank you both and all the very friendly, helpful staff. See you at the end of March.

After having surgery for a hip replacement and being unable to visit my favourite salon for eight weeks.
It is always a joy to visit as the staff and atmosphere are lovely.
I was so exited to be having my hair done today by Max.
He is a wonderful stylist, who always makes me feel good and we have such a laugh.He is a so exuberant ,with a refreshing honesty and vibrancy about him.The salon definitely have found a diamond in Max.
I was given a lovely filter coffee whilst we chatted about what I wanted doing to my hair. Then a relaxing massage prior to the treatments.
When I left the salon, I felt rejuvenated, a new woman. My hair was beautiful , cut professionally, shining and curled."Absolutely Fabulous "
Thank you Max, see you in six weeks time.

I've been using Shear Success now for a number of years and have always used the same stylist, Laura Wolsey. The salon itself hosts a great environment, calming and relaxing. Coupled with Laura's excellent skills and her ability to relax her clients following a hectic week at work, I'd never go anywhere else.

Have been attending this salon for several years now. I had an appointment today and was contacted early to say my stylist was off sick today. My heart sank as I really needed to get colour done. I needn't have worried though as I was offered 2 alternative stylists today when I thought I would have to be offered another day. Helen took over and I wasn't disappointed. Great cut and colour and great service. I did have to wait a bit for my cut but this wasn't too long considering I had been fitted in.

I couldn't fault how accommodating they were. Well done :))

Just returned from a Hollywood wax and I've got to say it was the best one I've ever had. I usually have sugaring at another salon but due to my beatician being off ill, I booked in at Shear Success after a recommendation. From the minute I walked in the door it was a faultless experience and I was to feel at home and relaxed. Painless, relaxing and efficient. Extremely pleased with the results and will be recommending to all! More expensive than my usual treatment but worth every penny.

Thanks Paula!

I started coming to the salon after a couple of bad experience at different salons . So i waa quite nervous when i made my appointment. And I explained all of this on the phone so i went for my consultation. And i was pleased with what helen told me and i new it was all right because being a hairdresser myself its always hard . The atmosphere is always relaxing and friendly and i really do enjoy going . I love my cups of teas etc and you can really chill . And i love the wide range of products you can buy . And my hair is getting back to how it use to be .

I have been having my hair done at Shear a Success now for about 15 years and have never felt the need to wander elsewhere. The staff are wonderful and for around a year now I have been having my hair done by Ryan. Ryan began to do my hair before he was officially qualified and it was of an impressive standard then and has now gone from strength to strength. Amazing. I can't recommend him highly enough.

I started coming to shear success because the reviews were great and my husband had recommended them. The salon is very clean fresh and welcoming. The staff are always friendly and helpful. I think a lovely touch is the choice of refreshments you are offered.
I came here for my first short haircut in 20 years and it looked fabulous. My hairdresser is Helen and I highly recommend her.
Great place and good prices too.

As always another amazing experience at Shear Success.... Showed Laura yet another picture of the hair colour I'd like to achieve and she consulted with me and made it look beautiful. A massage, a cup of fruit tea, deep conditioning hit treat along with hand/arm massage....I always walk out of there feeling totally pampered with yet again a glossy head of hair. Every 6 weeks just isn't enough - I'd go every day if I could. Xx

A revisit to get my hair cut with Laura, and yet another excellent experience. I have only been 3 times, but I love coming here and wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair now! Laura is friendly, professional, lovely to chat to and knows exactly how to cut and style my hair for the thickness and length that it is, meaning it is more manageable and easy for me to replicate the look at home.
Thank you!

I find the service I receive in Shear Success to be excellent. It's always easy to get a convenient appointment and I feel relaxed as soon as I walk in and smell all the lovely Aveda products. I am always happy with the way Ryancuts my thick, unruly, curly hair. This time my hi-lights were lovely and shiny and covered up the grey hair! My three year old loves coming to get her hair cut here too! Probably because Ryan and Max give her juice and lollipops!

After numerous failed attempts at getting the right haircut, I was thrilled to visit Shear Success and get it done right.

Shear Success salon has a high level of service, talent and expertise. Angela has looked after my very curly hair for several years now and can work magic on it! She manages to blend my highlights in a way that I can go months without my roots done and it still looks good. There is a lovely atmosphere throughout the salon and whenever I go I am always made to feel special. The salon decor is tasteful and relaxing. All the staff are lovely and very well trained. The Aveda products use flower and plant essences and smell delightful! They are not cheap, but do last a long time. I can thoroughly recommend the Spa, too!

I was bored of my hair so i gave you guys a call with no idea what to do with my hair i was stuck. booking on the phone was quick simple and easy and was found a time that suited me perfect so quickly and with that i was booked in with Ryan. The colour and cut i have received was above and beyond any i have had at any other hair salon. Ryan went through every aspect of my hair cut and colour vigorously using the help of photos on the ipad which i feel is a amazing idea! the cut was perfect and suited me so well along with my colour. He was so lovely, professional and so funny i left with my sides split! after a bottle of complimentary wine and some glossy mags i knew i could not be any happier. Ryan is an asset to your company and i will be returning for him i have already booked my next appointment. Well done Shear Success! 5 stars xxx

Booked my mum and I in for nail appointments at the salon. From booking the appointments to the end result I have been extremely impressed. We were made to feel very welcome from the get go and offered drinks and to sit together throughout the treatments. There is a very relaxed atmosphere at the salon and we were also given a tour of the spa which could rival any of the bigger spas out there. The care and attention the staff put into their jobs was evident. Paula is a professional, friendly and accomplished technician. The time she took on the treatment gave an excellent end result. The salon offers a range of treatments and I am seriously considering changing to them for my hair too. They offer a full drinks menu ( to include a relaxing glass of wine!) they are also open late. What's not to like?! Paula we will be back, thanks so much for looking after us.

I arrived at Shear Success today very tired and stressed - Max listened carefully to what I needed from a hair cut, gave me good advice about looking after the condition of my hair and then gave me a reinvigorating head massage - all just what I needed! And then my hair cut was perfect - the style has sprung back to life and Max has showed me how to style it - fantastic work! Thank you!
