A well overdue appointment because of lockdown. Not only were the controls and protections in place absolutely top notch but everyone made me feel so comfortable and reassured.

As always, my haircut was exactly as I wanted but Joe went above and beyond to make me feel like all precautions had been taken during this difficult time.

From entering to leaving it was a brilliant experience and not in any way diminished by the rules that are now in place. Wispers have done a phenomenal job in safeguarding their clients while still offering the same excellent service as before! Great job guys.

Joe did a fantastic job as usual. However there were no adjustments in terms of spacing between clients. I was very close to the stylist next to me and felt uncomfortable even with a mask on. The staff were wearing masks or visors and cleanliness was good with temperature checks. But cramming 6 people plus another 6 stylists into the back area of the salon does not feel safe!

I love Whispers, everytime I come every single person there makes 100% effort to make me feel special and comfortable, today amongst COVID-19, was no exception.
Becca has cut my hair before, (over a year ago!) and remembered me! She was calm and patient with my eagerness to "go different" today and was honest with me when I got over excited which was good as I was FAR too keen to chop it all off!!
Thank you❤️ see you again soon!

I don’t usually give reviews but on this occasion on my first visit to you during the Covid-19 pandemic I just wanted to say Bravo Wispers you have heeded to government advice yet still managed to make my visit to you so worthwhile. Great to catch up with Hayley and Joe too - I have had a lovely relaxing afternoon with you and I am thrilled with my colour too. Huge sigh of relief that salons are finally OPEN!!! See you next time and thank you.

Nice to be back! But quite concerned that there were 4 clients waiting and 2 clients paying all at the same time In the small reception area. Too busy. Also all 4 basins in use at same time... Surely that's not sufficiently distanced!

I have been going to Alex since she started at Wispers and she is consistently brilliant. I have unusually thick hair which I spent years hating; luckily I stumbled across Alex who not only colours and cuts it beautifully but offers advice on how to manage it at home. My hair maintains its shape between appointments and I get complimented on it regularly.

Wispers have taken Government guidelines to heart and seem to have invested heavily in keeping their customers safe! As always, the service was exemplary but additionally, during a global pandemic, they have made the salon feel like a safe haven where due regard to personal safety is well applied.

Wispers is the only salon that I would recommend to friends and family!
