I booked a last minute appointment as I wanted a fresh look to my hair whilst on holiday. I am delighted with the blunt edge bob style that Rosabel did for me. The salon is gorgeous and staff impeccable! Thank you for a great start to my day : )

I felt very comfortable considering I hadn’t been to a salon in a long time, Although I’m not much of a talker, Rosabel made it a good experience for me. There wasn’t a time that I felt uncomfortable. I was very relaxed. And my hair feels amazing, she styled it perfectly!

I’ve just had my 2nd appointment with Eloise and I’m very pleased. You instantly feel at ease when you enter the salon. Everything is Covid Safe.
Eloise takes the time to listen to what you would like and make suggestions if needed. With my first appointment I was unable to describe what exactly I wanted. Although she got a vague idea she was able to find photos for me whilst I was having my hair washed.
This appointment was just as lovely, again with Eloise taking the time to listen and check how long it was between my appointments to know how much to take off but checking first to make sure I was happy. End result = a much head of hair!
I’ve been going to Hunter & Walsh for a number of years and I’m as happy going now as I was at my very first appointment.
Thank you.

Just back from having my haircut by Freya- she understands short hair , and it’s a great cut without being severe- I’m 65, so a bit of softness , even with very straight hair , is important .. Thanks, Freya!

I cannot express how pleased I was with todays visit for a colour cut, and straightening styling. Brydie is an absolute delight. I have been going to Hunter Waslsh for 10 years, and always had the same stylist, but she has now left, so i was delighted to get Brydie, her attention to detail choosing the colours, and telling me what was actually going on at every stage was quite unique, i have never experienced this before. Brydie even showed me how to style my hair at home, with a tapered wand, never experienced that before either. She really is the best hairdresser I have ever come acrosss from anywhere around the world. I thank you so much Brydie you are amazing. It totally shines through that you really love what you do. Love my new me. Thanks. Hope you have had a nice evening. X

Jade always discusses and advises what we should do on an appointment and as I was changing colour to lighten up this time we talked through what she wanted to do and it turned out exactly how I wanted it. Jade is lovely to chat with and I always feel confident with whatever she suggests doing as it always looks great!

I have had my hair high lighted with laura, what a lovely person she is.
Laura made me feel very comfortable and relaxed.
four different shades of blonde where chosen and I am delighted with the end result.
I also had my hair cut and I am also delighted with the style.
I live on the isles of scilly but I will be returning again as often as I can and I will spread the word about the fabulous morning I have had at Hunter and Walsh.
Thank you Laura for making my hair look so lovely.
