After moving out of the area and trying to find a hairdresser more locally, I have returned to UBU Hair and the brilliant Nicki working her wonders on my hair! I always love my cuts and experience at UBU and it’s worth the extra miles to return. I’ve been coming to Nicki for getting on 20 years and glad to back!

My daughter had her hair done by Holly and she couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. Her hair is quite long however needed a slight trim, she wanted to keep a lot of the length just get rid of the dry ends and sort out her face framing pieces. She said Holly couldn’t have done it better… as well as having her hair spot on it looked beautiful when she came out and said not only was her hair amazing but Holly was so nice to her. I would recommend UBU to everyone.

After recently trying another hairdressers who completely ruined my hair I came back here as I have been here since a little girl and will never change again. Always listen to exactly what you want and Penny is just amazing. I was really sad as I am blonde and the other hairdressers did not do what they said. Penny completely sorted it out. Always very friendly and approachable.
