I have gone to Clive for over 8 years. First time I went with one of his staff. While getting my hair done I saw how much detail he gave to his clients. Don't get me wrong thr other hairdresser was amazing. Since then I always go there and never disappointed. Highly recommend and I went and got a dri ge thr last time and got so many compliments with my fringe

I showed the hairdresser a picture of what I wanted and she made sure to check with me I understood and was ok with what she’d be doing with my hair to get it. She was very friendly and easy to chat with and did a great job! I won’t say I got exactly what I wanted because I think it actually looks better than the picture. I get such a happy feeling when I look at my hair in the mirror now and I’ve had lots of compliments. Thank you!
