I saw Ylenia today as Ryan was fully booked. Ylenia is new but clearly very experienced. Usually I’m a total Ryan devotee as he always does a great job, but he told Ylenia which colour he usually uses mixes and she followed his advice to the letter, whilst bringing her own expertise.

I’m absolutely delighted with the results. Ylenia blended away my scruffy roots and her hands were so magically relaxing whilst she did it I had to fight to stay awake!

Ylenis is really sweet and I’d be very happy to see her again. I switched to Moose from
Aveda for the convenience of its location after becoming a mother a they have always looked after me brilliantly in the years ive been going to them since.

This place is a local gem, with great stylists and Sean the owner is super lovely and also a brilliant and massively experienced stylist. I’d trust anyone in his team.

Also they were playing a wicked mix of music today!

Today I had Leanne, who is a brilliant colourist and a quick worker too. Being blonde it can take an age, but she’s swift yet precise!

It’s the first salon I’ve found that I would be happy for any stylist to do my hair though, they are all great.

Love this place!

Colour and cut at Moose London

Delighted with my colour. Ryan is a brilliant colourist who has been looking after me for more than 3 years.

I trust him implicitly because he listens to what I want and then does exactly that but better! I always feel fantastic after sitting in his chair.

Either Ryan or Sean cut my hair and I’ve been a regular at Moose for 7 or 8 years. My previous salon was Aveda in Holborn. I was delighted when moose opened and I could stop trying to schedule time with young kids to schlep into town.

Very happy to recommend Moose. They’re all talented stylists and there’s always a good vibe in the salon. I always leave ‘swishing’ my hair! 🤍
