Hiya!
I had my hair cut by Martin today. Feel the need to tell you something…
What an absolutely wonderful experience!!
I am always nervous having my hair cut ( equivalent to some people’s fear of dentist). He was amazing!!
I am so very, very pleased with the results! He listened… gave his input, but allowed me to dictate what I wanted….
I got EXACTLY what I wanted!
Please can you pass on my sincere thanks to Martin? I’ll def be coming back to him

Always have an amazing experience at the salon & this time was no different. From the time I walk in Kris takes charge & I feel properly pampered. He is absolutely brilliant with his clients and I’m always confident to leave everything to him and have never been disappointed. I love my time with him. Also had a fab shampoo with a lovely young lady, I can’t remember her name, one of the apprentices, tall. A 5 star experience all round xx

I moved to the area in 2015 and it took me a long time to find a stylist who cut my hair the way I liked - I’d even resorted to doing a 400 mile round trip to go back to my old hairdresser before I found Jenny!

I’m sorry to see Jenny leave and I know she leaves behind big boots to fill but I have every confidence Lizzie is up to the job!

Good luck Jenny, I wish you all the best. X
