What’s not to love! Shampoo and head massage in a massage chair followed by a great cut and blow dry that made my very fine hair look thicker, shiny and super stylish.

So Beth did my hair,was my first time at AG and it won’t be my last!! It’s been a long time since I’ve found a salon that made me feel as welcome as the team at AG did. Beth was absolutely lovely,she listened to what I asked for,took the time to explain everything,and was just the loveliest person to chat to! I felt she took real care and attention to detail to my hair,and felt she did really care about how it looked(which is something I’ve felt previous salons haven’t!) I thought the price was excellant value for money,and I am already looking to book to come and have colour done! Thank you!!

I had been in to the salon to discuss bayliage, shown photos of what I wanted to achieve, had a strand test done and appointment was booked. Really disappointed that when I arrived I was told that a) my stylist couldn’t do bayliage and b) that I couldn’t get any lift on the colour as requested. Felt I spent over £100 and the result is no different to the colour I arrived with. Thankfully later having Dani to cut my hair, she advised that I should make an appointment with Dawn in order to get the colour I wanted. Had I been told this initially then I wouldn’t have wasted my money yesterday.

Emma lovely as usual, very efficient and intuitive re cutting. Very happy with colour.
PS your coffee is undrinkable. Also this is the third appt in a row that has had to be changed and means the customer has to compromise on when it happens and what is accomplished.
I for one am happy to wear reused gowns rather than have more plastic go to landfill

Hi Amanda, delighted you are really pleased with your cut & Colour. We have invested a huge amount in coffee with a barista standard machine that provides fresh bean to cup coffee using a really high grade fair-trade organic coffee bean’s. We are happy to provide a gradual coffee alternative if you prefer that no problem at all.

I am very sorry you have experienced rescheduled appointments obviously like many Businesses at the moment are still suffering post covid and sickness is something we are still dealing with from time to time as ever we will always do our best to ensure your appointment is of minimal disruption should we face a challenge on the day of stylist sickness.

We have introduced gowns to the salon again to offer clients then option between laundered gown and a fresh disposable gown so in future you will be able to make a choice that suits you.

as ever we are always trying to improve our service and your feedback is important in order for us to improve.

I am now going through cancer treatment and Emma and Lucy B (who would normally colour my hair) could not be more kind and caring and make me still feel special. Nothing is to much trouble for Emma to make me feel better about my hair and she is so thoughtful.
