Her and all the staff were lovely and created a really welcoming environment. Show all reviews - C Cheryl Anderson > I received a very warm welcome from the staff, and the salon itself was very inviting. Syd, who did my hair, was very efficient and did a brilliant job. I hope to be back soon - J Jo 12 > Excellent, my first visit, Katie was very welcoming. Would recommend. Thank You. - R R > Loved having my hair done by Syd. I have wavy hair so wanted a cut that suited both straight & wavy hair. Turned out perfect. - A Ashley Todd > I had an amazing experience with Syd last week. I’m a new client and we had a great conversation about my hair needs and wants, particularly as my hair has become wavy/curly over recent years and I wanted to know how to best take care of it at home. Syd gave amazing communication, explaining what she was doing cut wise to compliment the curls, and then showed me how to use styling products and a particular brush which I was able to purchase from them for a reasonable price. I’ve since given the tips a go at home and I’ve noticed the difference with my hair! The salon itself was lovely, well kept, and all the staff were very friendly. I went in to book my appointment rather than do it online and this was really quick and easy. Thank you for a great experience, look forward to coming back! - B Beverley Williams > Change of colour. Love the results. Salon has a lovely atmosphere. Friendly and professional. Thanks Sid, amazing as always x - G Georgie Thompson > I had a phone call the day before to confirm my appointment and discuss the details- this was really helpful as I was nervous attending my first appointment. At the appointment, Katie was really friendly, answered any questions I had, and was very efficient! Excited to continue my nail growth journey with them- and use the vouchers they offered me as a first time customer! - S Sally Gray > This salon was the most friendliest I ever had the pleasure to walk into. I had a facial and it was wonderful, they took time to assess my skin and talk to me about options. I would certainly recommend this salon. ## Services - Japanese Head Spa - [Japanese Head Spa – Celestial Scalp & Body Ritual](/services/japanese-head-spa-celestial-scalp-and-body-ritual-90-mins) £90 -
