A fabulous experience in the salon with Sara. Not only great cuts for myself and my sister but Sara is a very genuine, talented, lovely lady who made us feel very welcome. The salon has a great feel to it and the staff are very friendly. I would recommend to anyone who wants a good re-style and to feel pampered. Would definitely book again next time we are in the area. Thanks to Sara and the team!

I cannot recommend HAC highly enough! Having researched hair salons across Devon I booked an appt for cut and colour based on excellent reviews and Web content. Sara was amazing and suggested colours that I had previously been contemplating, and gave me an indepth analysis of my hair immediately. So impressed! Thanks also to Alise. All staff highly professional yet the friendliest salon I have ever visited! I will be back... and back....A*to all. Many thanks!

WHERE ON EARTH COULD ANYONE FIND A BETTER, MORE PROFESSIONAL SALON...??!! THERE IS SO MUCH TO APPRECIATE HERE : ALL THE STAFF ARE TRAINED TO EXCEPTIONALLY HIGH STANDARDS, ALL ARE FRIENDLY AND GENUINELY SEEM TO LOVE THEIR JOBS . SARA EXUDES A SENSE OF FUN AS WELL AS OFFERING THE BEST ADVICE IN HAIR CARE THAT I HAVE EVER ENCOUNTERED. WHAT IS ALSO SO RARE ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE AT H.A.C IS THAT SARA REALLY CARES ABOUT THE WELL BEING OF ALL HER CLIENTS WHICH MAKES EVERY VISIT TO THE SALON AN UPLIFTING EXPERIENCE.
THANK YOU SO MUCH, WE ARE SO LUCKY TO HAVE YOU IN THE SOUTH HAMS.

After sitting for a good hour with a tint regrowth the innulox rebounder was put in my hair during taking the colour off, and removed quite quickly rather than being left in and a ‘rough’ dry was preety rough! The hairdryer was so near to my scalp it was burning and no care was taken in adding volumiser, drying or cutting my fringe. It was all very rushed and I left looking dreadful! I had to go home, wet my hair and ‘rough’ dry it nicely. Not the best experience!

My thanks to Sara for intuitively understanding that it was time to address my greyinģ thick mop of hair and knowing exactly what to do. I am beyond chuffed at the results - both the cut and colour are brilliant and more than l could have hoped for. Sara is a superb hairdresser with a great team - it is always a treat and a pleasure to go the HAC Salon. Cannot thank her enough x
