Edward James London - Balham

Excellent cut from Florentin. Super happy. Would definitely recommend.

My appointment with Carrie was as always a lovely experience . She is professional, knowledgeable, highly skilled and creative . As always she gave me good advice about how to care for and style my hair and I was very pleased with my cut and blow dry . Thank you Carrie,

I’ve had my hair done by Carrie for 2 years now and love it every time! A great and professional service :)

Love visiting the salon. Staff are lovely and so pleased with my cut and colour - thank you Harriet!

I had the absolute best morning at Edward James Balham. I had a colour cut and blow and the results are perfection. I was treated to very thing I could have wished for and had a wonderful head massage. So happy and will be back very soon. A gorgeous salon and a wonderful team of people. I would highly recommend to others. I also received 20% off as it was my first time visiting the salon.

Ed has been a constant and positive presence since I found him at his first salon more than a decade ago. He spends the time to get to know his client's lives and lifestyles, and underst what will work with my quirks and needs.
I always feel looked after, and leave the salon content in myself, and delighted with my fabulous hair.

I came in for a creative dye job- I have natural dyed brown hair and I wanted two white flashes at the front under the top layers. I had two consultations with different people and then they recommended someone. I showed a pic, I wish I had shown a few more. My hair stylist was really nice, but misunderstood the assignment and instead of flashes made several small sections of white which wasn’t super visible… I said respectfully that it wasn’t what I wanted so he repeated the process and added more pieces. The second time round the bleach didn’t lift as much so now I have random steaks of white and more yellow blonde popping out - looks like a balayage gone wrong, when what I actually wanted what big chunks of the white. Super dissapointed because I haven’t dyed my hair in ages and was really looking forward to this change. I know hairdressers aren’t magicians- but for £214, I would expect a better result. :/

Very good

Amazing super happy with colour and cut she is amazing thank you!

A truly professional- always great result!

I had such a great experience at Edward James in Balham… Emily made it very special, she did such a fantastic job with my hair. Really grateful!

The hairdresser (Elle) who did my hair was lovely. I hope she gets the job! I’m super pleased. And the rest of the staff are great too. Many Thanks xx

Another fantastic experience, I was treated like the Queen! Jessica is just wonderful, always gets my highlights exactly how I want them, wonderful head massage and a treat of a hair mask!!

A very good cut!! Thank you Becca!

The service wasn’t as expected for the price paid. A little disappointed and wouldn’t be paying that again.

Emily is such an amazing hair stylist. She listened to what I wanted and interpreted what I asked for to ensure I got exactly what I was looking for. She was diligent and meticulous and I absolutely love the results.

I have definitely found my new go-to hairdresser in Balham, and I will be telling all my friends!

Emily is the best hairdresser I’ve never had! She is so lovely and warm and my colour (blonde highlights) is always perfect!

Fantastic service - very happy!

Gitanna is utterly brilliant both as a stylist & colourist. Has a lovely nature. A consummate professional!

Excellent haircut as always. Happy making! Thank you Natalie.

The colour is always perfect. The cut is great, style as well. Great experience, lovely people and space.

I was pleased with the overall result

Emily always does an amazing job and I recommend her to all my friends and often get asked by other blondes”who does your colour”?

Came in to get my roots done? Paid an extortionate £76 and the colonist didn’t even bother checking the colour was ok especially given I changed from my normal
Shade. It was just onto the next customer. The colour isn’t ok - my roots aren’t completely covered.

Best hairdressers in UK. Harriet is brilliant and all the staff are friendly.

Carrie is a true class act. With her extensive experience, she has an incredible understanding of color and light, effortlessly transforming hair into something that looks healthy, flawless, and professional long after you leave the salon.

I left the salon feeling so revved up, refreshed and rejuvenated! From the lovely massage to the beautiful colouring, treatment, cut and style! I was floating and feel great about my new hair!

As always had a great experience at Edward James.

Ed is a brilliant stylist and he gave me a fab new hairstyle which I love.

Balham is a lovely, bright airy salon and the massage at the start of your appointment is a,lovely touch.

I highly recommend Edward James.

Really blown away with my first Edward James appointment. Emily is such a talented stylist and really listened to what I wanted, as well as providing great suggestions. Her attention to detail is fantastic and I'm so happy with my colour and cut. She also made me feel very welcome and had great conversation. I really appreciated the small touches too like the prosecco, which really made it feel like a luxurious pamper session. Beautiful salon too! 😊

Very friendly and profesdional service as always .

Perfect result
Very pleased

Harriet was absolutely fabulous as always. She a real star and the reason why I keep coming back despite moving away from the area. She does a brilliant job and can’t recommend her more highly.

Harriet is amazing.
She always works hard to ensure we get the right colour which is always difficult as a greying red head customer! She additionally is always so personable and her team are an asset to her.

I've been seeing Ed for 12 years now. Every time, it's a pleasurable experience in the salon, and I always get compliments on the day, but right through to the next time.. considered colour, cuts that age well. I always leave in a great mood.

Wonderful service as ever and great colour results. Chelsea does the best massage ever!

Chris is nice, and so professional.
His colour is always bang on!

Good work and speedy service. Happy with the outcome

I have been going to Edward James since I came to London 2 years ago based on a recommendation I got from a friend. She had been seeing Natalie for around 10 years and had followed her from her previous salon. I can see why!!

Every visit is such a joy and I always feel a million times better when I leave. My hair has also NEVER been better - I even get stopped in the street with people asking where I get it done.

On top of the great chats and great hair, I love the whole experience. Everyone has always been so kind to me and it really feels that everyone genuinely cares for the clients - even if they’re not their own.

LOVE LOVE LOVE!

Very happy with the resul

Carrie is amazing. She always makes my hair look stunning! The colour is beautiful and perfect to what I want every time.
BEST HAIRDRESSER EVER

The best salon in Balham! Great experience, really pleased with my colour and cut. Highly recommend Edward James salons.

Very happy with my tape extensions that Hayley did for me, Hayley & the team are really friendly and professional!

Really good haircut. I am very pleased with it and I very much enjoyed the company of Archie at my feet

Very happy with the result

Lovely atmosphere as always. Loved my hair with golden hands that Chris has. Loved loved every minute of it with him doing magic with colours and styling!!!Just awesome and you are so lucky to have him as he is so talented!!!ps.Loved the tea he offered with herbs, I even said I will pop in only for a cup of tea!!!

Always such a wonderful experience coming to Edward James, I’m very loyal to the salon as nowhere else is quite like it!

Jessica (Italian J at Balham) did a fabulous root tint, she is extremely professional and has lovely, relaxed personality, just what I needed at the end of a long stressful week. I left the Balham salon looking and feeling 100 times better! Thanks!

As always it was a great experience and I leave so happy. All of the staff are professional and great. But Emily is my go to!

Edward gave me a great cut. He knows what style suits . His colouring technique is second to none. What I like is that he listens and is great at interpreting client wishes. Very friendly salon with pleasing decor. Great staff.

I’ve had both a balayage and just a cut/blow dry with Rebecca now and wouldn’t dream of going elsewhere. I’ve never had so many compliments on my hair and my balayage is growing out beautifully after 4 months. Can’t recommend enough!
