Excellent service from the moment I walked in to the moment I left. I was greeted on arrival and the staff made me feel welcome. The stylist (Chris) was very friendly and chatted to me throughout the time I was in the chair.
I would definitely recommend Ishi to other people.

Love this salon. Tracy is amazing; she really listens and delivers exactly what you ask for. I've recommended her to others, and recommended her to you, too. The salon is centrally located - great if you're on the bus or tram. Parking is expensive, though. Good atmosphere in the salon and usually great music.

Having my hair cut and coloured by Isla at Ishi is always great. Isla has ideas and suggests little changes which keep me from getting bored while I'm growing my hair. It's such a relaxing experience, and everyone's friendly. I would highly recommend Ishi and especially Isla.

Smooth Hair

The lovely Isla tends to my thinning locks and I popped in for a blow dry on Wednesday 25th August.
I paid an extra £6 for a conditioning treatment and then Isla worked her magic. From frizzy hair to smooth hair, with volume in 50 mins. Isla is not only a magician she also offers terrific advice on how to manage your own hair.
The salon is friendly and there is also the bonus of the the lovely Karen who is an A1 nail technician.

A great salon and Isla is super talented.
