Colour correct / rectify / revamp

Anne-Marie Kelly

Team Member: Samuel

I came into the salon to ask for help to fix a previous colour I was not happy.
I was kindly offered to come back the same day and met Samuel, who really listened as I shared with him what I didn’t like & what I hoped for.
He described, reassured & guided me, also using visuals as to what he could achieve; considering the colour/look I was hoping for.
End result I was super happy, Samuel made a fantastic transformation to my hair colour.
Not easy to find this & I will certainly go back for him.

Lovely atmosphere, spoiled with drinks and niceties 🤍

Usually happier with the service but came home a bit disappointed. Asked for layers shorter in the front and longer in the back but got a blunt cut with two face framing pieces at the front and that’s it. Not really what I asked for.

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.

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.
