If you have a teenage daughter you will know how particular they are about their hair. Adrian was fantastic, he styled her hair exactly as she wanted it and was very personable with her . She won’t go anywhere else to have her hair cut and I can’t recommend Hobbs Whetstone enough. All the staff are brilliant. Happy teenager means a happy mum!!!

My hairstyle was done brilliantly and my stylist was super friendly and chatty. I was seen to straight away. The only things that were a shame were that I wasn't offered a drink during my appointment and the area I was sat in hadn't been swept up. Although I'd booked and paid for my appointment online, I was asked to pay a further £5 at the end, as the receptionist said the prices had increased, and I hadn't been charged correctly. I think this was unfair, the prices should be clear and upto date on the site, and any extra charges should be relayed on the onset. If there's a fault on the site, it shouldn't be a regular customer who bears the brunt of it.

Appointment verified by SaloniQ Software

I booked my appointment ages ago online - it was an important one as it’s for a wedding.
I had booked with Laura- and received a txt earlier in the week to confirm.
When I turned up I was told Laura no longer works Fridays anymore. Obviously this was very stressful. I said I was prepared to go home and come back- and they found me an appointment for 2.5 hours later. So HOB mistake was a massive inconvenience, since I was prepping for my niece’s wedding.
Afterwards they were polite and gave me some free samples, but in retrospect this wasn’t adequate.
Lawrence- who I had my appointment with was very good. So I was happy with the results.
