Mel was waiting for me. I was greeted with a smile. She handed me a mask and we went up to the salon. She explained which colour would look the best. I am deaf so she changed her mask for a vizor so I could lip read her which made it so much easier to communicate. Very relaxing having my hair done by Mel.

Visited today for my first post covid cut - 15 months since the last one and Nadine brought me back to life! As usual, the salon is busy, happy and efficient and has kept its welcoming atmosphere, despite all the covid precautions. Thanks for a really beautiful cut Nadine - lovely to be back in the world!

I came in with covid hair, you know, uncut the last year or so. It looked like hell. I was bored and indecisive with it. Called in a panic wanting apt with the lovely Eloise who has done my hair for two years. But as she want available and Laura had had a cancellation, I jumped at the chance. Was delighted with the result and the process. Laura kindly considered my hair, stricture & density - and my concerns. I showed her phots of me/my hair then and now, and some aspirational possible cuts. She said what would work and we agreed a plan. A lovely head massage while being shampooed relaxed me right away. The resulting cut was super. I feel like a new person. Thankyou. Another super cut from another talented member of the team at Hunter Walsh.

This was the first haircut since lockdown began so over a years worth of growth.... my hair was a bit wild and far too long.
Brydie was fabulous I cannot recommend her enough, I absolutely love my new cut, my hair feels lighter healthier and far far more manageable. The salons covid protocols are great, made me feel safe and secure
I will absolutely be going back to see her for my next cut but definitely won't be 15 months this time.

Wonderful view and the price was extremely good. I do visit Cornwall a lot to see family and I very much hope to return to Hunter and Walsh. Hopefully next time Covid restrictions will have been eased and coffee will be available. I cannot recommend this salon highly enough! Go there! Many thanks. Hazel
