I’ve been trying to find a creative and skilled stylist for the ten years I’ve lived in the UK, and I’m so very pleased to have found Gary and Wilde about Hair! Every other salon I’ve tried has been so boring and conservative and gender normative. I finally got a great haircut and a style that isn’t the same as every other woman in the UK (long and straight).

Natalie was amazing as usual. Very talented.
However, the assistant did not give a very good wash. She didn’t wash under the back middle and bottom of my hair. No massage offered either.

I stumbled across Wilde about hair after going to a well known salon nearby for years. Luke gave me a different slightly shorter cut and I loved it. On my 2nd visit almost 3 months later, Luke remembered the previous cut so was really pleased. Also the young female receptionist is very welcoming and helpful. Thank you

Have been sorted out by Stacie for years now. Colour, wellaplex and finish. Colour is gorgeous and it feels great. But the style is out of this world. Lots of curls and a sweet little plat!
I am non-binary and Wild About Hair are wonderful understanding and caring people. I cannot recommend them more.
