Addison & Grace today, Addison has now moved on to more adventurous things so this was her last time colouring my hair and I can really tell how far she has come from the 1st time
Well done Addison and thank you Now Grace is taking over, if her attention to detail when washing and stain removing is anything to go by she too is going to be outstanding.

Emma coloured my hair as am trying to change from one colour to another, we have a plan that will take a few months, but will be worth the wait to finally have the look in after.
Megan did the cut and finish, and I left feeling like a million dollars.
The customer service, professionalism and knowledge base is absolutely second to none,

Booking online was easy, offering the use of the quiet area really helped, and big thank you to Joanna her stylist - she was very kind and put my daughter at ease, taking time to explain everything, my daughter was super happy with her hair cut, just as she had wanted :) my daughter came out of Novo and said she enjoyed it and would def go back, which is amazing - Thank you :)

Skarlett was absolutely wonderful with my grandchildren today - she did an amazing job on both of them; my granddaughter loved her first proper salon experience, whilst my very nervous grandson really benefited from Skarlett's quiet and caring style and her checking along the way that things were how he wanted. She definitely has two new clients! Fantastic experience.
