I booked myself a birthday treat and came away very impressed with the colour and the skills of my stylist, Jana. I did find this venue a bit overpriced, even for its location, which was exacerbated by the fact that I had to pay £20 more for hair dye since I have Afro, unrelaxed hair. I understand that my hair has more volume and so I don't mind paying more, but i also didn't really get a blow dry because of this same reason, so I felt like the £20 extra should have been cancelled out. Still, the staff were all lovely and the venue itself was sparkling clean, but next time I may go somewhere else more accustomed to handling black hair.
The salon was beautiful and in a fantastic area. I only had to wait a few minutes, and was served delicious coffee. Unfortunately, the "rough blow dry" described on the booking was interpreted differently by two staff members, so there was a bit of confusion. However, my hair (I got t-section highlights), was a great way to touch up my roots at an affordable price compared to the rest of the high streets! I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a quality salon treatment.
Mario was fantastic, I had originally booked for highlights and a cut but after talking it through with him we decided that I only really needed a cut and to leave my colour natural. I'll definitely be back.
