Appointment verified by SaloniQ Software

I have been a client of the lovely Caroline for over 30yrs (neither of us look a day over 21 😆). She listens, advises & you leave feeling like a million $$.
From the moment you step through the door until you leave, whether it's your first visit or you are a regular, you are greeted with a smile from everyone. Nothing is too much trouble and whoever your stylist is, you are in great hands.
I really look forward to each appointment as the whole process is so relaxing (a head massage is a must) & when you are offered something to drink, I highly recommend a hot chocolate!
Love the variety of products and so helpful when the benefits of them are explained for what is best for individual clients & how to get the best result at home.
Looking forward to my next appointment already 😍

I have visited this salon previously and then moved out of the area. Tried more local stylists but never got the quality I was looking for. Now travel back and take MIL with me. Rachel is amazing! She listens, comes up with ideas and works with us both to give us what we both want. Quality counts here and they treat you like family which is best of all. Always a warm welcome, a tea or coffee if wanted and a smile throughout the visit. Have decided we are never moving out the area again just so we can keep going back. Thank you everyone!

Left the salon disappointed, dident get the colour I requested, toner left on my scalp too long which left my scalp red and sore, and also made me hair looking like I had no highlites a very dull colour, had to put more in which lifted the look, refused another toner as my scalp was hot and sore by then, paid £234 which I felt was a bit high considering the outcome, then was being charged for a cut which I dident have, girl at till very sullen when I told her , so not a good experience
