As someone who used to dread going to have my hair cut, I couldn't be more grateful for Jack at Head Kandy. He's funny, welcoming and makes me feel at ease. Fantastic service, and I've come away with a little more confidence and a fresh hair cut. Thank you! (:

I booked in for an appointment for a full head of foils with Lexi and a cut with Ryan. I have naturally curly hair and low self confidence so have muddled through with my hair myself as I have never really been happy when other people do it, until today. I was made to feel welcome from the minute I stepped in the door, everyone was so friendly and attentive, asking if I would like a drink, if I was comfortable, asking if I was ok etc. my colour and cut looks amazing and I have booked another appointment. Thank you all! X

I am a 59 year old woman whose maintenance capacity is wash, brush and go. Ryan is the first hairdresser who is skilled enough to cut my hair to look well and professional for work with the least maintenance. His friendly open manner belies a steely perfectionist excellence. I’m grateful and fortunate.

This was my second appointment; I first came to Lexi on a friend's recommendation for a re-style. She really listened to what I wanted and made helpful suggestions. The resulting cut was excellent, easy to style, and kept its shape brilliantly. The second appointment I've just had has actually even improved the style! Once again, Lexi took time to listen to my requirements, made suggestions, and put it all into practice. I'm very chuffed with the result. Thank you Lexi!
