The Cutting Room (1088 reviews)

The environment is lovely, and I really like the feel of the salon. However, if I come in and say I want a choppy layered haircut then it's what I expect. Instead I left with a minor chopped in layer, and pretty much looking the same. I really like the lady who did my hair, but it maybe felt like she was scared to chop too much off. Even when I said it felt a bit too heavy still, she just went in with thinning scissors which hasn't given me the choppy look I was aiming for unfortunately.

Advice on cut, cutting and blow dry was fine. No issues. For better "special" experience an offer of a beverage, some pleasantries and follow up on showing me how to blow dry a fringe as had been offered would've made it more of a special experience.

It was a pity that the salon was just too busy for anyone to give the level of service that I have come to expect from past experience, which had always been good, and why I had returned. The stylist was curt and distracted, and failed to introduce herself. I felt uncomfortable, and I eventually gave up trying to make conversation. The cut was well executed but rushed; I wished I had the courage to ask for some adjustments in the layering. I regretted asking for an unscheduled blow-dry, clearly I was taking too much time already. I paid up and left with my tail between my legs.

Quite disappointed with my visit today. My hair cut lasted 20 minutes!!! My hair wasn’t blow dried professionally - literally just how I do it at home - rough and ready. My hair wasn’t combed prior to straightening and therefore kept pulling with little knots - really quite uncomfortable. The lady did change my appointment meaning I paid less but, honestly £30 for 20 minutes is still not good. Honestly, very underwhelming today.

I was put in the corner, the mirror looked like it hadn't been cleaned in weeks. Splash marks and dust covered the mirror and the 'table' in front of me. The Whole salon felt dirty. The hair cut it self wasn't great, the lady seemed nice enough, but didn't seem confident in what she was doing. The atmosphere was cold and unwelcoming, no music was played and I wasn't offered a drink. I will not recommend this salon to anyone, and I certainly won't be going back.
