Totally awesome cut this morn by the gorgeous Tessa❤️my mum suffers with Alzheimer’s so “haircuts” can be tricky. Thanks to Tessa's skill, kindness and understanding, my mum relaxed and chatted happily throughout our visit.
Very impressed !

Colour was amazing, Ryan is great when advising on best options.

Hair wash was weak could hardly tell my hair was being washed. No head massage either. In my opinion it needs to be more intense and pleasurable that's what we look forward to, .

This was my first time at UBU and I'm incredibly happy with the service. Booking an appointment was incredibly easy and I was sent a text reminder and email confirming my appointment. I was booked in with Holly, who was absolutely lovely and put me at ease straight away. After discussing what I wanted, I was taken to have my hair washed and a hair mask applied. When my hair was ready Holly got to work on cutting my long and damaged home bleached hair into a short bob. She made sure I was happy with the process all the way through and I felt well looked after. Holly has done an amazing job, and I'm over the moon with the style and how healthy my hair looks. I will definitely be going back in the future.

Penny was very friendly and equally attentive. My 11 year old was very well looked after and left the salon an extremely, happy girl.
UBU have always given my girls the same attention they give to the adults, and this is why it was my 11 year olds first choice when she needed a hair cut.
Penny is extremely professional and Anna-Arissa's hair was given a lot of time, and it looks amazing.

So ive been to UBU on and off for years and have never had a hair cut ive not liked! I go to Penny now and travel from Tamworth. She is amazing. I always show her what I want done..she advises on the up keep so I know hiw to style it. She listens to me and is by no means scissor happy with the length. I arrived 30mins early due to quiet roads today and Reception sat me down with a coffee and I felt totally relaxed and the staff included me in their chat whilst I was waiting. What genuine lovely staff and super hair cuts on my long hair...Thankyou to Penny ..you are a star! Xx

Sam is such an asset to UBU! She cut and styled my hair *exactly* how I wanted it. She is warm, friendly and a perfectionist. I had a bad experience with a different hair dresser that left my hair in quite a state and she took the time and effort to make it perfect again. I booked my Christmas appointment with her before I left the salon. So pleased with UBU's service and Sam in particular. Can't recommend Sam highly enough.

One of the most caring and kind hairdressers I have ever had. We’ve moved away from Sutton Coldfield but had to come for a cut because she knows exactly what to do. I’ve not been very well but she makes you feel better and cuts my hair just how I wanted it-totally recommend!

I’m pretty new to having my hair coloured so I was nervous but instantly Holly put me at ease, she asked just the right questions to achieve my desired look and oh my life I’m so happy. A natural brunette honey balayage, I’m in love with it. Holly you are amazing thank you.

The other hairdressers are also so friendly and welcoming, I feel really at home here and can’t wait for my next visit. Every customer walking out of here looks like a million dollars. Incredible salon, I highly recommend!
