Star stylist in the making!

Appointment verified by SaloniQ Software

Mia C did an absolute blinder on my very long and very thick hair! She cut it beautifully, and patiently balayaged it to such a high standard.
At every step of the way, her trainer was on hand to guide her, which made me feel confident of the outcome.
All the girls in the academy were very pleasant, and I would highly recommend you pay a visit.

You are made to feel at ease and you are listened to when discussing what you would like done to your hair. And the stylists may be training but they are always professional and caring.
Can’t speak highly enough of the service I receive from all at the academy.
Thanks you.

Once again really pleased with the cut and colour. My hair isn't easy as the front is pure white and metal grey at the back. They put semi permanent colour on the back and toner on the front and the silver grey colour looks very natural. Really good cut as well and i feel so much better.
Love the care and attention here

As always Ali, Michelle and the girls are a delight. They always make you feel so welcome and take their time to teach their students in a kind and patient manner. The salon feels like one big happy family as does Otto's other salons that I have visited over the years. Well done to everyone you all work so hard and make my six weekly visits always a pleasure. Keep doing what you're doing girls! Xxx

I've been going to Hair Ott since Otto first opened in the 70's in Portsmouth. I've stayed a customer since then and have had a perfect haircut every time. Every one is so friendly and kind and take care in their work. If I was Otto I would be very proud of my staff. Thank you to everyone for great haircuts over the years!

I've been having my hair done at the Masterclass Academy for a while now.
The service is excellent.
The trainee hairdressers are very keen, and willing to learn. They treat the customer very well, and are overseen by experienced professional and qualified hairdressers.
I allow extra time in my appointment so that I am not rushing.

Once again a brilliant cut and toner completed. Even though still training the young girl who cut and coloured my hair knew exactly what she was doing and was very confident. It may take a little longer but the tutors check where needed, thoroughly recommend Haur Ott Masterclass Academy.
