I’ve only eve had one keratin treatment done before (not at Hobs) and having had this treatment with Billy all I can say is WOW!! Don’t think think the previous time I had it elsewhere cld have been keratin compared to Hobs!

Absolutely fantastic results and will definitely do again - my hair feels so light and so quick to manage now, I love it.

So grateful to Billy and especially for opening the salon early to fit me in - thank you so much as ever :)

No looking back now - will make this part of my routine for sure.

I attended the salon on Sunday 13 June for a half head of highlights with ***** and a cut and blow dry with Lucy.

To my shock after my hair had been finished, I noticed that I had dried in hair dye on my face and also along the hairline. I also noticed my roots had not been done. After having a half head of highlights I expect the roots to be done. I mentioned this to ***** and she said ‘well you had highlights’. That’s no excuse. This was not cheap either and I will never return to this salon.

As soon as I got home I had to jump in the shower to remove the hair dye still on my face and hairline.

I have always had long hair and decided after years to change my hairstyle dramatically, so after alot of thought I took the plunge and decided to cut my hair short. My stylist Billy really made me feel comfortable, explained quite comprehensively what he will be doing, which made me feel reassured regarding my decision. I love my new short haircut. Thankyou Billy.

Colourist was great. Chloe who cut my hair was too. Both lovely and professional. The trainee with copper hair will make a fantastic hairdresser.. did a lovely head massage. She had time too and was attentive with water temperature and just lovely and enthusiastic l.
You are just overpriced which puts me off coming more regularly. It does feel like staff are under pressure and understandably in these current circumstances. But it felt like that the time before. I don’t believe it’s anything to do with the employees but there is an air of clock watching and doing everything as fast as possible rather than it feeling more relaxed which should be part of the experience for the money. Feels like a well oiled machine rather than a relaxed atmosphere for both staff and clients. And you do charge more than other competitors in the area which do feel more relaxed. Don’t feel you have met the balance for the price... and again that is nothing to do with the skill and hairdressers.

Shelley has been looking after my hair for some years now. She has got it right every time. Shelley takes time initially to ascertain what’s worked well and what is currently an issue as hair grows and changes, then offers options for current styling. Every time my hair has felt and looked different but I’m always happy. A truly talented and professional stylist.
