I love coming here: every aspect of the treatment, from the welcome at the door, the consultation with stylist, the hair wash and head massage and finally the cut itself, is warm and conducted with the utmost professionalism. At no point are products or extra services thrust at customers and the prices are very reasonable for such high-quality service. I have regular appointments with Sally, who is lovely to talk to and very able to suggest and execute stylistic tweaks that make me feel great and full of confidence when I walk out the door. Recommended!

Even before I had made an appointment, CEO Daniel took the time to talk to me about my hair and its condition. I think he would have done this even if I didn’t make an appointment after I had spoken to him. The condition of my hair has improved so much and looks amazing. Can’t thank him enough. Definitely switching stylist permanently to Daniel. Chloe washed my hair for me and was very attentive and chatty. She’s just starting out around her studies. She will go far with her friendly and positive stance on life.

Jo the hairstylist I saw today was one of the loviest people I’ve ever met and feel completely confident with her opinion and advice.

It is very difficult to find a good hairstylist, thus I guess once you find one you stick with him or her as long as you can.
Daniel has been taking care of my haircut for over three years now.
He is an excellent stylist but also has ability to tune with people very easily.
