Absolutely fantastic place...sadly my appointment was cancelled on Saturday due to the salon closing as a safety measure following a covid scare..I was obviously disappointed but understood...the salon staff then worked tirelessly to try to fit me in which they did 3 days later!! I'm so grateful to them all for their efforts. Such a friendly team when you get there & all topped off with an amazing haircut...I genuinely can't recommend them highly enough & looking forward to my next visit

Moved to KB in April and this was my first visit to HAC and 6 months since I last visited a hairdresser. I wanted something a bit different to previously though I was unsure what I wanted - Shannon seemed to understand what I was looking for and did a great job of interpreting my vague ideas. Very happy with result, thank you Shannon.

I wish I could remember the stylist name but she had short slightly lavender hair. My hair looks amazing! She was very knowledgeable and I felt like I was in great hands. My hair was in pretty poor condition after visiting some other salons that didn’t do a good job. All the staff were friendly as always and I will make the effort to travel a bit further to go back again

Nine months since my last visit (thanks to lockdowns) so it was way overdue. My hair resembled more of a haystack and once again Shannon managed to tame it and style it into something I’ll be able to manage myself. I have thick hair so she’s expertly taken lots of the weight out. A great experience at the salon as ever. Back next week for my colour - can’t wait!
