I had the mud treatment again today. My hair feels so soft and looks a million times better than before. I love how I’m given multiple options by my stylist when I arrive, I never feel like my treatment is rushed or I’m pressured into going for the most expensive treatment either. I recommend this salon and its treatments every single time to everyone. It’s so worth doing if you need your hair looking silky smooth or you just want to treat yourself!

Really happy with my new haircut which I got as a last minute special offer and was booked in the very next day.
I’ve been trying to grow the colour out so have been pulling it back and not showing it off anyway. Now, however, very pleased with the face framing layers.

I have now had two mud treatments and am so pleased with the results so far. My scalp is not so red and inflamed, it feels more alive now. I have very fine hair and already it is looking better and feels thicker. I wish I had known about this treatment a long time ago. Anna is so knowledgeable and explains everything about what is happening to your scalp/hair. I cannot recommend this treatment enough

Visiting Unique is like being pampered for an hour
Anna gave my tired dry hair a divine fragranced mask which made it feel amazing so light and soft. We discussed how I’d like my hair trimmed and me and my hair could feel the difference and tried a more modern and natural looking style. As always it really suits my face my hair and my personality. Anna is so brilliant at what she does and always makes me feel great for the rest of the day and beyond because my hair looks so good, and this is not exaggerating as I’m writing this review in the evening and despite being out in wind and rain twice my hair still looks and feels great.
