Awful experience

Charlotte

They washed my hair in freezing cold water which gave me a migraine! And I paid nearly £200 to have a girl do my hair who had been at the salon for only 3 weeks!! I am now left with the worst botched ginger hair and all I asked for was a head of highlights. A Turkish barber would’ve probably done a better job than these amateurs!

I’ve only had three hair appointments since moving to Nottingham and two have been here! I loved the aesthetic and vibe of the place, so I took the plunge. Paige did a complete restyle on my hair - it was honestly the best haircut in my recent years! Paige talked me through the process how to style, maintain etc then we discussed colour. I have just returned from my colour appointment and my god! I have never been happier! It was exactly what I wanted, Paige absolutely knocked it out of the park. I will be back in around 8 weeks for my roots! :D I have also recommended my husband sees Paige too! 10/10

Disappointed

I left feeling so deflated.. I saw Simon after waiting a couple of months and I was very excited for my transformation to begin! However I feel like he didn't listen to me at all, he didn't try to get to know me or make conversation with me, I felt like I was just another number to him and I didn't get what I asked for. Something that bothered me was that he left me with a different hairdresser to do most of the work. Which would have been fine except it was clear he didn't listen to me when he gave her instructions for example I asked for colour to be put on the ends of my hair and I didn't get that, I asked for a dark black and got a brown etc.

As for the vibe it was really off, I didn't feel that welcome walking in, no one spoke to me the whole time I was there.. I felt like a burden when I was asked if I wanted a drink and said yes, Simon was just a bit dismissive of me and honestly a little rude to the other staff.. how this salon has got such good reviews is honestly beyond me. I travelled a long way fir this and paid a fortune for me hair that someone else did and honestly felt like he was rushing to get me out of the door so that he could have one less person, I honestly think you need to give each client a bit more time and energy if your going to continue with the amount you take on as I just didn't feel seen/heard/cared for or listened to at all.. I wish you all the best and I hope you learn from this but I will not be returning because of my experience.

I am a pain in the arse when it comes to my hair, very nit picky and like it just so. Sophie has not only put up with me for a good number of years but always does a great job.
The salon and staff are warm and welcoming and I look forward to every visit.

Big disappointment

Michaela
15th Apr 2024

Unfortunately, I did not have the best experience. I absolutely understand that things sometimes does not go right, but even after fixing my hair, it was just not right.
Basically, what happened is that I booked full head highlights, my hair were a bit grown already, but it's naturally blond so usually it is not a problem.
Once done, day after I realise that the part where new highlights were applied was completely different colour than rest of my hair, so went back for correction. They used different toner, that did not really do the job, it was slightly better but still very noticeable. I already felt awful but for that money I wanted my hair done properly. I have been told that it is because of the shade of my hair at the end and that's normal, and if I want to correct it, I have to wait another month for an appointment. I was shocked and told them that I would get it done somewhere else. To that they sad oh cool, bye...
That's about my experience with tuckwell.

I’ve been having my haircut by Simon the man himself for quite a while now. Every visit is painless and everything is well considered, from the greeting, being escorted up to the salon to the consultation and offer of a complimentary coffee. The salon vibe is bustling and energetic which match the design aesthetic and the staff. All one has to do is sit, enjoy the experience of having a master cut one’s hair and leave, feeling like a brand new king.

Worst Experience Ever

I've been recommended this salon by multiple friends so thought I'd try it out. I had a consultation prior to my appointment and was very specific about what I wanted. I honestly have no idea why and how I left the salon looking the way I did, with the stylist thinking they did a good job. I thought it'll be okay after I wash and style my hair myself, but I ended up in tears instead. The cut was wonky, not what I asked for and my hair was a horrible orange-purple colour instead of platinum blonde. I went back to have the cut fixed and the colour corrected which was okay but still not what I originally asked for. My hair has since become very weak and brittle, and the cut is still uneven in places. I will not return to this place again.

Worst experience ever…!
I went to this salon for 3 years religiously because I trusted them completely. The last time I went I was completely distraught with what I received. My hair cut was SO BAD! Like I’d cut in myself…would've saved myself £62 (just for the haircut). And I would’ve saved myself £175 overall…a lot of money for major disappointment. I asked for layers and it was so blocky. When I messaged to ask for a fix or a refund I was ignored multiple times, really bad customer service and I was really upset. Ended up going elsewhere and paying more money. For a student this is difficult, I save up a lot of my money for this and feel completely disappointed by the service given.
