I saw Chloe today to have my nails "sorted out".
She was pleasant, friendly, professional and did a lovely job.
Chloe explained the whole process to me and she was knowledgable and confident with all questions asked.
I have booked 2 further aptmts and will definitely use So and Chloe again.

I have been going to So for my nails for about 2 years and have also had waxing, blow dries, cuts & recently HD Brows. I always leave happy, the girls are lovely. Bella is great and I can highly recommend her for nails (she always gives me a good shellac colour combo recommendation ;-)
Dani is super experienced and all the staff are confident & professional.
I'm looking forward to booking in to have a massage with Annabelle - I hear she is ace!

Having been very disappointed with the quality and general experience at my last local hair salon, I decided to give it
a go at SO Hair,Beauty& Nails and I am SO glad that I did! . Zoe highlighted ,cut & blow dried my hair. It is the first time in years
that I have been as happy with the finished look. I look forward to my next appointment, and also to the fact that I don't have
to go home from a hairdressers and wash out the bleach residue and the awful blow dry due to lack of care & poor training.

I can recommend the wonderful facial given by Chloe ,again such high quality delivered by a happy & professional lady.
I have booked in my Mother,myself & my daughter for my daughters pre wedding preparations for Hair,Nails & Beauty
Treatments. I look forward to having my nails done by Danni ,as judging by other clients comments I can expect to be just as
pleased.

Since moving to the local area a year ago, I tried several different salons for hair, beauty treatments and nails in Banbury and I can honestly say none of them match up to the service and quality I receive at So hair, beauty and nails.
The staff are always friendly, helpful and most of all professional.
Zoe does my hair and I have had so many comments from friends about how good and healthy it looks recently.
Dani does my bikini and eyebrow waxing and I honestly haven't had a wax as thorough and pain free before!
I have recommended the salon to lots of new friends in the area and would urge you all to go and try it out for yourselves.
