Appointment verified by Phorest

Having moved to the area recently I needed to find a new hairdresser and I’m so pleased that I found Cindy.
On my first visit I had gone for a brave transformation cut, from long to short. Cindy put me at ease straight away and listened to my ideas and I love the style she created.
On my second visit I asked for a slightly shorter fringe and Cindy knew exactly what I needed. I love it!
Friendly, welcoming, professional staff and a lovely setting. Thank you.

Just to say my third time with Cindy J & as always a really good experience. She listens carefully to what you’re asking & trying to achieve - does all the relevant professional tests necessary & will tell you ( politely) how achievable it is with your particular hair type & in it’s current state.
The atmosphere seems calm & unhurried & everyone is friendly & most importantly, it is non threatening & (crucially for me) “non pretentious” unlike SO many salons in the area & yet you still get an air of confidence that they are very professional & know exactly what they’re doing!
So refreshing & I wish Id found Cindy years ago!!
I love the products used especially Davines hair colours & how much better I feel when I leave!!
Thanks so so much Cindy & colleagues!
