Allaine recommended a Nioxene product for my thinning hair. Her persistence and thorough tutorial encouraged me to commit me to an 8 week programme. When she checked my scalp with her specialist equipment even I could see the excellent results on the screen. My hair growth has increased dramatically. I'm very pleased with the advice and my regular hairdresser, Lynsey. Thank you ladies.

Really pleased with the result.

Both Lynsey and Emma were absolutely amazing! I have long hair and usually dread haircuts, but they both made the experience a dream. The color and cut turned out gorgeous—beyond my expectations. I truly hope Santa brings them both something special this year! ❤️

As usual my hair was cut perfectly. In addition this salon has strength in depth in its stylists. Whilst I tend to favour the same one I know there are at least another two who can do a quality job if my preferred time is not available. I always come away feeling I’m genuinely appreciated as a valued customer

Had my son’s hair cut this morning. I wasn’t really impressed by Chloe this morning. Loads of different long bits & could have been blended better. I took Kaiden to another barber after this to sort the problem as I already mentioned to chole.but didn’t seam to sort it . Plus I was £34.50 for 1 gift for myself which on the box says hair care essentials repair rrp £19.50 so why have I been charged by chole £34.50.

I’m happy enough with the haircut I left with; no problems there. Staff were all pleasant. Made 11.30 booking as there was availability on the website. I got a phone call just before 11am to say my chosen stylist was delayed and could I make it at 1.45 instead. Not ideal but I agreed as I really needed my hair cut. This doesn’t come across as very professional. Couldn’t the website have been updated to reflect the stylist’s availability? Things were quite slow to progress once I was in. 45 mins into my appointment and I was still sitting there with wet hair after having waited so long for the appointment. Overall, I felt like my time wasn’t important to them. I will think twice before returning because of this.
