Horrible haircut

Charlotte
28th May 2021

I just had possibly the worst haircuts of my life at your salon today. After showing a picture of king layers around my face, I was given layers all over my head to give it more “texture” which I did not ask for nor appreciate. It will take ages for it to grown out. After months for waiting for a haircut , I left nearly in tears and hair hidden in a ponytail. I told the stylist I didn’t like it but he told me he did that on purpose! Layers around a face are not layers all over a head! I feel awful and so disappointed. I certainly won’t be back!

It was my first time coming to Hobs, all the staff are very friendly, accommodating and very welcoming. My stylist Holly is really great, she understood what I wanted to be done to my very long hair that needed a revamp. I am very pleased with the outcome of my cut and will definite come back. I finally found the salon that I can trust my hair with. Highly recommended :)

Faultless experience

Ella

Faultless experience...

My stylist and colourist Nick went above and beyond today. Following a lot of root growth in lockdown, my blonde hair desperately needed a brighten up and lighter feel to it. Nick offered his vision and expertise and suggested that working around the natural root would be the best way to reach my desired look - I was somewhat hesitant, but felt very confident and safe with Nick’s sound advice and proficiency. WOW... I am so glad I put my faith in him, the finished look was exactly as desired, if not greater. Not only was Nick a professional... he was patient (which is important to me), welcoming and great to chat with. It was my first salon experience and it truly felt like a 5 star service. The wider team were also incredibly welcoming, covid - safe, polite and friendly. The salon was very clean, vibrant and overall had a great vibe which mirrored a great team. I left the salon feeling great, I’ll no doubt be returning. Thank you all!!!!

A great feeling to be back to GX HOB.
The salon was looking good with all the covid protection that could be expected.
I presented my long straggly year’s growth to Aime and without flinching she did a great job with the cut and blow dry.
So good to feel human again!

My stylist was called Maria , always good and professional made me feel safe. The lady at the reception was uninterested didn’t welcome or speak told me to drop my coat on the floor next to my station which I felt was poor . The hygiene was as good as expected but am still paying for PPE when none of my friends are paying their hairdressers for that. Then when I payed the same receptionist was really poor didn’t seem to know what she was doing and I actually went back in to find out how much my hair cost me . First time ever I’ve had a real problem with Hobbs and felt as a good customer couldn’t wait to get out !!

I initially came for my colour with Frankie and asked for a last minute cut aswell - the salon was very accommodating and booked me in with Mei.
Frankie was very thorough and took no shortcuts in ensuring my colour was exactly how I wanted it. She took the time and I was so happy with the results.
Mai cut my hair for the first time, Initially I was going to have my ‘standard’ cut, she recommended a lob cut which was quite a drastic change for me, but she gave me the confidence and explained why it would be a good choice. I felt I was in really good hands with Mei And I was very pleased with the end result.
The staff at the salon are always very friendly and always go the extra mile to make sure your happy with the service.

Despite all the challenges of Covid made my day. After a very different visit last time, and my usual hairdresser being on maternity leave, I chatted to Holly on arrival about the experience and state of my hair! Appreciate these may seem fairly futile but Holly was just amazing, so attentive, listened to every point to understand my hair and went absolutely over and above to make this experience excellent. She spend a huge amount of time getting my cut just right and styling it exactly how I wanted. I highly recommend her, she’s a credit to the salon and am looking forward to the next visit!

I brought my 7 year old in for a haircut and Holly took excellent care of him. She listened carefully to what style I wanted for him and did a brilliant job. Afterwards my son (who doesn’t like getting his hair cut) said the best bit was Holly rubbing the shampoo into his head - it was very relaxing! ??
