Yet again an Andrew transformation. Colour is great and the cut is so good that my hair just falls into shape every time I wash it, with minimum effort from me. The salon is always such a welcoming place to come to.

Not normally one for writing reviews but if you want the experience of a totally relaxing hair treatment in a warm friendly atmosphere with genuine helpful staff look no further than the Barny SAX , after a much needed hair revival i left the shop looking and feeling years younger than when i went in , give it a try i can honestly say you will be made most welcome by professional hairstylists, with fantastic results
