New haircut a long time coming.

Appointment verified by iSalon Software

This was the first haircut since lockdown began so over a years worth of growth.... my hair was a bit wild and far too long.
Brydie was fabulous I cannot recommend her enough, I absolutely love my new cut, my hair feels lighter healthier and far far more manageable. The salons covid protocols are great, made me feel safe and secure
I will absolutely be going back to see her for my next cut but definitely won't be 15 months this time.

She listened to me, took one look at my hair and knew exactly what to do to make me feel like a QUEEN! I left feeling amazing! My hair is so shiny, soft and beautiful! An exceptional cut and experience all round.

Booked at short notice whilst on holiday. Delighted to be able to get an appointment. Excellent haircut and styling from Rosabel who was so understanding. Wonderful view and the price was extremely good. I do visit Cornwall a lot to see family and I very much hope to return to Hunter and Walsh. Hopefully next time Covid restrictions will have been eased and coffee will be available. I cannot recommend this salon highly enough! Go there! Many thanks. Hazel

So lovely to get a haircut after lockdown. Was a little apprehensive as first visit to new hairdresser after moving to Cornwall. I need not have worried. The hair wash was good especially with the massaging lounger chair. Brodie did a lovely Bob haircut and what a treat to have a blow dry. A really good experience.

I have naturally curly hair and am new to this salon. Melody was amazing! She really listened to how I style my hair and what products I use and understood how I wanted my hair to frame my face. She did a fantastic cut on my hair and explained what she was doing and why (she really knows about curly hair) - she cut it dry so she could see just how much the curls would bounce back.
I felt safe (what with the new covid procedures) and everyone - especially Melody, were friendly and professional.
I'm really looking forward to my next appointment!
