I have had my hair done by Kirsty for many years and always found her friendly, professional, knowledgable and skilled. She offers advice when needed and accommodates my quirks and preferences. Colour and cutting are both excellent.

Really impressed with the overall experience at the salon. It was my first time going to UBU and was lucky to have my hair done by the lovely Penny.

Penny was so friendly, chatty and did an amazing job on my hair! Will 100% be returning.

Went in for my usual cut and blow dry today with Nicola. All staff very friendly from the junior washing my hair and providing a cuppa to all stylists. Nicola, as usual made a fantastic job styling my hair and was full of friendly chat. The salon itself has a lovely relaxed atmosphere and prices are reasonable.

I truly love this Salon, the staff are so friendly and always willing to listen. Nicky does my hair, it’s always just as I want. Today was a bit different as it was my first haircut since finishing cancer treatment so my hair was quite difficult so needed smartening up and frizzy hair cut out, the end result was amazing, my hair looks healthy and very smart again….Thank you so much Nicky

I have been a customer of UBU for the last 2 years and I thoroughly recommend Nicki and her team.
Nicki always spends time talking through what colours or style of cut I want and what would best suit my very thick hair 😊
All of the staff are very friendly and my appointment is always on time.
I have always had a pleasant experience at UBU and my hair always looks fabulous when I leave! Nicky you are brilliant!

Love my cut and result however I'm confused on the price. I had a cut and style which with top style on the website says £49 but I was charged £55. I did question this at the time but was told it's £55 for a restyle, this is no where on the price list and made me feel uncomfortable. I am happy to pay for the service but there should be transparency around cost.

I had no prior knowledge of the salon at all and had visited on the off chance to ask advice. Soo… my appointment was made for the next day with Kelsey and I’d asked that she advise and talk through with me before starting. She took time to chat with me and ask for my wants, needs and hair habits before sharing her professional thoughts and ideas. These were explained thoroughly and I took them on wholly putting my head in her hands.
I’m absolutely delighted with the result! I dare say, I shan’t be able to replicate the finish but I’m happy that the lovely cut will help carry me through until my next visit. And I shall be back! Thank you Kelsey and UBU.
PS Nice strong coffee too! 😉

I have very thick & long hair, so whenever I have my hair styled in a salon, it never lasts more than an hour, especially when it’s curled. Nicola styled my hair exactly how I wanted it, and I can’t believe the curls haven’t dropped at all. She is a hair magician, and I will certainly be returning! Thank you so much

In a dilemma, forgotten to book appointment 🙄 gave mid afternoon call to enquire on availability of an appointment. Great news, appointment at time requested. Easy parking outside, smiling friendly staff on entering salon. Quick chat about styling required and off to the chair. Stylist made conversation and made a nervous granddaughter feel very much at ease. Well presented salon, good products, very clean. Great hair cut, happy customer 👍
