The customer service you get here is second to none. Your appointment time is just that “your appointment time”, not anyone else’s. You are talked through your treatment every step of the way. Your leave feeling satisfied and pampered. This is the best hair salon I been to in my 40 years of being going to hair salons.

I have been coming to Dare Academy for a few years now and am always pleased with the results. Both Sharon and Sydney are helpful, professional amazing hair stylists who I trust with my hair completely. I even bring my teen to get their hair done. Would highly recommend their services and will be back in a couple of months. Many thanks ladies.

Love my hair, family members were complimenting me on my hair colour. Love how smooth it is after the olaplex. Would have been nice if straightening was part of the service, since my hair gets fizzy quickly, the straightening would have held it down for longer. Also that's what most salons do after blow drying. So thought would be the same here. But overall, Love the outcome, will visit again in the future.

This was my first time getting a silk wrap and I made sure to read the reviews before visiting the salon. Sydney made me feel very relaxed and looked after me well. A great consultation. Talking me through each step that would take place. She also trimmed my hair. I was worried but in the end she hardly cut anything off. Also told me how to maintain my hair and how to wrap it up with a silk scarf at night. A lovely hairdresser and salon. Will definitely be revisiting.

I believe the Italian lady who did my hair was “Mille “ she’s amazing . She listened to me and gave me 100% what I wanted . Superb cut and blow dry and u had a groupon deal but still was booked in on a day and time if my choice and was well looked after . Thanks so much Mille it was so nice to meet u and chat and I appreciate the cut you gave me as it’s lovely !

Sharon is an amazing stylist and I always leave happy with what she has done.
She always offers advise/suggestions on styles which are always honest and helpful as I’m so indecisive.
Sharon has a very kind friendly nature she makes her clients feel comfortable and it’s always lovely to have a chat whilst getting my hair done.
The salon itself has a friendly, happy atmosphere and staff are always pleasant and helpful.

Sharon did an amazing job with my hair!
Didn't know whether to have highlights or full colour and I'm so glad I listened to her advice.
Sharon chose the perfect hair colour for me along with a fantastic cut and blow dry, which I just love.
Lovely clean salon with a great chat.
Thank you so much!
