Sue is simply the best! An expert in her craft, and has been cutting my hair for more 30 years - I wouldn’t go anywhere else. She is the best for wavy/curly hair and for a sharp straight style. Irreplaceable! And this visit was as good as ever.

Both mark and Sue run a lovely place. Always enjoyable but sadly retirement beckons them both so had my last haircut today. I’ve been going for 30 years and only once strayed elsewhere but soon came back! Professional and good company so have to now say thanks and bye-bye - and hope to keep bumping into them in the future! X

Just went in for a trim. Have curly hair so it’s different to cut than straight hair, and this is the first time I genuinely feel my curls are better after a cut! Very skilled, professional service and I’m so happy with the result.
