I am very impressed with the level of service offered by the salon in Hitchin. I was seated immediately and offered refreshments, my hair was washed by a lovely young lady and the dried and styled by another who was not only an expert in her trade but excellent company. Overall I would give my customer experience a 10/10. Thank you

I'm really unhappy with my cut today. The wash was very rough and painful. The cut is fine itself but it's not at all what I asked for - and showed a reference picture. My hair is about 3 inches shorter than I was expecting. I specified that I dry my fringe with a round brush a hair dryer - so the stylist straightened it... This means it'll be wonky when I blow dry it. She really didn't listen or seem to care about what I wanted.

Feeling really self conscious about the cut and won't be returning.

This is my 3rd cut at this salon, with the same stylist and I am absolutely thrilled.
The salon itself has a lovely environment, great facilities and talented staff.
Chynna restyled my hair the first time and took me from a drab lacklustre ignored mane to a really flattering and easy to look after style. I've been back twice since in 9 months (which is a record for me) and I plan on returning for my next trim.
I highly recommend this salon and Chynna for their service and skill.

I've been going to the hairdressing company for over two years and they are absolutely great. I work mainly night shifts so sometimes I have to cancel and rearrange if I'm covering shifts which they never get annoyed about.

But the thing I really like is how well they cater for my sulphate allergy. They actually advised me when I first went it might be sulphites and it was! They use sulphate free products and they don't mind that I can't have a full blow dry (makes my skin react) it's so good that they are so accommodating to my hair and scalp needs and if it wasn't for them I wouldn't know that I had the sulphate allergy! So they have also saved my skin from lots of problems. Chynna cuts my hair and does a fab job even though I'm boring and just have a simple cut. Would 100000% recommend.

I have been here about five times now and while I was initially really pleased, the last few times I felt like my hair cut was rushed. I always make a point of saying exactly how I want my hair cut but I have felt the last few times that not enough has been taken off and after about 3 weeks I am ready for another cut. It never seems to last very long. At the end of my last appointment I wasn't even shown the back of my hair in the mirror so I had no idea how it looked at the back till I got home. The stylist rushed off to another client.
On the positive side I have always been very happy with the colour though.
Another hit and miss thing is who washes your hair. If it's a stylist it's fine but if it's the younger, trainee staff I sometimes end up covered in water or have endured quite painful hair washing and a so-called relaxing head massage which was anything but relaxing from a male member of staff.
