I don't usually go to hair dressers but I wanted a short funky cut, after hearing so many great things about the salon I booked in for a cut with Jack. Soon as I arrived I felt so welcomed, staff are all so friendly and can't do enough for you. I am in love with my hair cut, Jack knew exactly what I wanted, gave me advice on styling and I felt so relaxed and confident by the end of my appointment. Can't recommend this salon enough and can't wait to go back. Thankyou!

I had Lauren do my hair, and she was so welcoming and warm and she made me feel at ease the whole time and she did my hair beautifully and I am so so happy with the results! I feel like a different person, my hair looks and feels so lovely! Would highly recommend!!
