Aisling was lovely and the colour was exactly what I wanted! Will definitely be back for colour. The cut was a lot shorter than I wanted. However I was quite shocked at the price of the haircut. In other salons the price of a haircut on top of meche is heavily discounted. In the past I would pay 160 for full head and cut. 207 for half head and cut is unfortunately much for me!
