Kelsey carried out my daughter first colour today and I can honestly say, it’s absolutely perfect. My daughter’s hair is so thick and long and Kelsey worked with so much patience after spending a solid few hours inserting all the foils.
The finished colour, style and finish is exactly what my daughter asked for.
Thank you so much for your kindness, patience and skill. You really are brilliant at your craft!

Having lost my previous hairdresser, I was unsure where to try. I still wanted to stay local so went into Ubu. I was looked after by Penny. She listened and did a really nice cut and blowdry. She had a bit of a task as I'd ended up going longer between cuts than usual. Made to feel really welcome, too. Shall be returning!

I've been going this hairdressers for over 8 years(longest I've stayed with the same hairdresser!) All the staff are friendly and offer professional and honest advice when required. They are attentive and good listeners to what you would like (something some hairdressing salons lack) It is also reassuring that I can get my hair done by different stylists if I can't get my usual one and still get great results!! Would highly recommend this salon👍

I highly recommend UBU Hair. I hate going to the hairdressers like most hate going to the dentist.
I have never felt awkward or uncomfortable at UBU Hair, unlike many other places. There's no 'click' feeling or looking at you like you don't belong.
Everyone is friendly and I've never had a disappointing cut. Prices are great.
I honestly usually dread going to the hairdressers but I do t eith UBU Hair.
