I saw the amazing results on instagram of the curly designs so I thought finally I can get a hair cut and style that will suit my frizzy wavy hair. Unfortunately my experience did not live up to my expectations. The curly haircut taken off so much of my long hair, which the hairdresser lady warned that it may seem more than it actually is because of the layers and the hair will jump up etc, so this was fine. Then hair-wash and style, about 5-6 different product was put on my hair, then dried with diffuser for about 30-40 mins in a very uncomfortable position which would not have been a problem if my sacrifice results in curls. At the end, my hair felt hard to touch dry with products, and looked almost exactly the same wavy as when I sit down except 4-5 inch shorter, crusty and smelly. My hair was weighted down and looked like I haven’t washed it in a week… this was not the ‘just been to the hairdresser’ look or feel for me. At next wash, I used my own products and advices learnt on social media, trying to style my own hair hoping for curls and the result came out better than the actual hairdresser/stylist work (see photo). I used a few curling products as well but my hair is not weighed down or hard (slightly frizzier but wavier too!) which confirms that the hairdresser could have done better.

On the phone when booking I was originally told it would cost £80 for highlights and a cut however when it got to paying it was £135 on top of the deposit I had paid earlier. I like my hair and happy they managed to squeeze me in before lockdown but can't really afford to come again.

I was quite disappointed to be completely honest. I had originally booked in for a colour service (after travelling 3 hrs to get there) but they said that the wrong service has been booked in (even though I had checked through phone calls and had asked when I came to collect my colour start kit). This meant I couldn’t get any of the colour that I wanted because they said they hadn’t put enough time into my slot for that to happen. I was really upset to be honest cause this was my first experience with the salon. I had to wait 20 minutes into the consultation for them to tell me this. I asked if I would get my 50 pound deposit back because I didn’t want to split the service into multiple different appointments as I live far away and had agreed beforehand that all the colouring would be done in one session. The stylist said they weren’t sure if it would be possible to do so to not lose any of my money I said I’d just get a haircut done while I was here. I wasted a lot of money doing their Colourstart patch kit which they said I needed to travel to Bristol before my session because it ended up nearly being 5 days before my appointment but I didn’t even need it in the end when they couldn’t provide me with the colour service I wanted. After getting my haircut done which was okay I don’t think I would recommend this salon to people travelling far or if you want an intricate service. Just honestly disappointed and will be going back to my old salon.

When you have to shimmy down in the chair for the hair drying there is no lower back support which is really uncomfortable. I think some cushions of lumbar supports to offer people would make a huge difference for comfort. The phone line is awful. Whenever I have called up it’s really hard to have a conversation.

Pricing was £40 more than stated on booking confirmation, lack of information on website and in booking confirmation led to an unexpected charge at the till for a blow dry costing £40 The stylist was lovely, happy with hair colouring, definitely more clarification needed on curly colouring pricing.
