Janet has made such a difference to both the style of my hair and the health of my scalp. The products she uses are excellent and the salon is spotless.
I’m a carer of a vulnerable person and Janet always pops a mask on when she sees mine, which I very much appreciate.

Leah was absolutely amazing to with me she didn’t take too much away and made feel confidence in her and what she could do and I am still amazed I’ve not been the kind of person to add layers or allow any other hairdresser do what they like it’s always been a basic inch off once a year because I’d lost confidence in the other salons I’d attended but Leah was beyond fantastic and gave me the boost I needed and I look forward to seeing her again

Love how friendly all the staff are here, as well as how informed they are on products and style tips. My colour lasts so long but looks amazing now all refreshed for the festivities!
