Fantastic cut and service from Serena. I hadn’t had my mop cut for 18 months so the first styling I had had with long hair. Very happy with the results and time spent in the salon - thank you!

I was extremely happy with the service I received from Qudsia. She has treated my hair for quite some time and she always delivers fantastic results, which is one of the reasons why I love using Toni & Guy.
She is always professional, very friendly and accommodating, gives great expert advice and the level of service hasn’t changed in any way even with social distance measures.
She is a true asset to your team and is very passionate about colour styling. No doubt that I will be using her services again.
10 out of 10!

Appointment verified by SALONGENIUS Software

I went in for roots, toner and hair treatment mask. Paid over £114.00 that’s with other discounts applied, which isn’t a problem if results are perfect! Wanted brown but got black, still I thought pointless to say anything now as it’s done. Left with colour around all my front hairline and not told. Noticed at home once hair all pushed back. I felt very upset as seems like a home job. Called up T&G to explain situation, told to use nail polish remover. Still has not removed all colour and left my skin dry and itchy where I used the nail polish remover. Offered by branch free hair treatment for inconvenience for next time. I’m not happy with overall service. I except to get what I asked for when I’m paying good money for the service. I don’t enjoy to wasting my money. Just listen to what the customer wants if you can’t do it, say so.

i thought the salon had a positivity energy, combined with accommodating staff members.
moreover tasked with covid regulations the salon felt very safe and clean. from my time in the salon everybody, including customers adhered to government regulations. Not only that the staff still maintained a positive and professional attitude throughout.
in short; a pleasant, welcoming, and all round lovely experience.

After a botched last haircut that I git from another hairdresser

I was feeling down and after waiting far too long I visited Essensuals in the mailbox and had my hair done by the very impressive Serena

After a nice chat, my hair was looking very awesome once again, I’ve had loads of people praising Serenas’ work and I’m very happy once again

In fact I can’t wait to visit again!

My other half and I went in for a haircut with the Art Directors and really enjoyed the whole experience. Very friendly and attentive to the customers needs. They were extremely skilled and talented with over 12 years experience each. The cut and blow dry was done with perfection and made to look so effortless. Top job and extremely satisfied with both our haircuts. We left with products recommended by the Staff. Would return again.

I had my hair re coloured so it was bleached and recoloured again

I wanted to have a combination of lavander and rose gold but the hairstylist gave me the option of having the pink first and see if we can add the lavander. So we ended up just having light pink close to blonde and gray from the roots as she suggested that is a good combination also.

The re coloring was a success but the next day my scalp is so itchy and dirty. So i shampoo it but to find out that my hair was not washed thoroughly as i saw my hair color going off...
