Renaissance has such a friendly vibe and I always come away knowing that my hair cut is going to keep its style. Len heads a fabulous salon experience and has always been an amazing stylist. No doubt for me the best in town.

Disappointed in colour. I explained to both Georgia and Katy that I wanted darker blonde streaks put in to relieve the solid block of colour. ( My hair is platinum )However there is no difference at all,I have no streaks. But the darker hair at the back is largely covered now
Katy was apologetic about this and reduced the bill

I went into the salon feeling fed up with my drab hair and colour, desperate to turn back my hair clock 10 years. I showed Georgia a photo of how I wanted my hair and i have to say i came out feeling very happy. The colour and cut are both great and the price was a pleasant surprise.
Thank you Georgia, I'm delighted and feel 10 years younger.
