I popped in today on the off-chance to see if there was a free stylist to wash,cut and blow dry my hair and Georgia was free. ???? Very friendly and comfortable. The wash was with Rosie who was very good with a massage (well needed) and I'm over the moon with my hair.

I came the academy in claygate today and Coral did half a head of highlights and a cut and blow dry. Coral did an excellent job and she is really friendly, chatty and a credit to the salon. Price was brilliant too.

There was confusion over the time I was booked in for so it appeared I was 15 mins late yet Georgia was very accommodating and said she'd would fit me.
Great to be in a salon with calm atmosphere, decent music, & the music not blaring out from the speakers!

I've come to expect great service from Christine and her team and today didn't disappoint. I have short hair, and not all hairdressers are able to cut a short style but Christine listens to your ideas as well as suggesting tips herself and so I always end up with a flattering cut that lasts a good six weeks. I'm equally pleased with the semi permanent colour and the products used. There is no hard sell and the text reminder on the day of your appointment is always useful. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend!

Georgia coloured my hair today exactly as I like it- she knows what I want and does it. As Georgia knows I don't like paying salon prices but her service and skill keep me coming back. She is friendly, discrete and meticulous with her colouring. Today it was humid and the salon was warm- air conditioning should be considered !

I came to your salon on recommendation. Sade did my hair and I was delighted with the cut and she was so sweet. My only complaint was that I purchased Bamboo Beach sunshine spray for around £30 only to come home and find the exact product for under £20 so that was a big disappointed. However I hope I will be back.

Thank you for your Review, please be aware that there are lots of fake products online which look the same even smell but don't have same results. If product is found cheaper in another salon we will refund the difference with a receipt. Academysalons team
