My first visit to Ministry was amazing not only did I get a fabulous new hairstyle but I never had an appointment to start with! it was Saturday afternoon, and my husband’s birthday, Daniel saved my evening by fitting me in after I had been let down last minute, I am so glad I walked in when I did and will definitely make them my regular hairdresser from now on. All the staff I met were really friendly and down to earth I was even offered a massage and to put my feet up whilst having my hair washed! They must have seen how stressed I looked when I went in. Definitely the best experience ever compared to the many hairdressers I’ve been to over the years Thanks again and see you soon.

Not my usual salon and last minute appointment for braids - was sceptical. Needn't have worried, Cey listened to what I wanted and I came away with tight well braided hair! Advice was given about after care and further hair improvements, styles and appointments. Was made to feel totally comfortable from beginning to end of the appointment. Thankyou Cey.

As usual, I had a really good experience, at Ministry.I do not have an issue with trainees, cutting & styling my hair, nor should anyone. There is always a professional on hand, to supervise e'g Dan, who is absolutely superb & also the CEO. The atmosphere is very friendly & the salon very clean. No discarded hair on the floor, which is so off putting, to other clients. I would recommend Ministry of Hair, to everyone & do so, very often.

Hi I just want to say that over the years people have struggled to cut my hair. I have a side parting and people used to cut chunks into my hair. Ceylon today has made me love my hair again and her advice with looking after my hair was amazing. I will definitely be coming back to her for sure in the future. 10/10 x

Jo is my fav hair stylist there.
I’ve been with Jo since 4 years ago and she always provides me with an amazing service. We discuss what I want and she gives me an advice what it’ll look like.

This time she not only finished her work nicely for me but she also made my daughter happy as she cut her fringes and curled her hair nicely for free! She loved your work Jo and complained why I never told her bout you ? Now you have a new customer ☺️
