I went for a drastic change of style and was given top class treatment, great support and a really chic cut.
Customer service was fantastic, personal care and warm welcome from all staff. It's a bit away from the other central shops etc but well worth the walk.

I am extremely happy with the service very warm,welcoming,and friendly. It was a lovely environment and they were so welcoming and offered me refreshment. My stylist Ella was great she was so friendly and also gave me a great haircut and also explained everything what she was doing and also gave me really good advice on styling my hair. The Essential at the mailbox is great and im really glad ive found my hairdressers. The service is outstanding and i will keep comming back and highly reccomend it to everyone.

Rubbish

Rubbish!!! Hair dresser was scared of cutting hair! Had to ask her when she will be cutting my hair, as all she was doing was blow drying it and straightening it. I even said I don't mind the length being shorter as long as it has good layers! When she did cut couple of hairs, It was like she was cutting an end of a thread.

As always my experience at the salon was a positive and friendly one! (it also involved a nice coffee!). I went in to have something different and I was given friendly and honest advice on how the new look could be altered to suit me...I went for a daring undercut and I am really happy with the look! Many thanks!

As always, staff are incredibly professional and remember who you are which is important as you feel valued.
There had been a mix up when I rebooked my cut and colour and my cut had not been organised. However, everyone went above and beyond to sort this out and I am extremely grateful for this.

Lovely hair - thank you stayed in all day. Fantastic show - 5 star reviews young Frankenstein at the Garrick - opposite the national portrait gallery. All the cast were amazing. The leafs were superb. Ross noble - a great link in all the scenes. Fabulous costumes & belted out songs.
A good many stars there too. Joan Collins, Maureen lipman, Alan yentob, Paul Merton, a newsnight reporter and Mel Brookes himself, Christopher boffins. Superb preparation by Susan stronman.
