Written by our customers, so you know what to expect at each and every venue.
Amazing as always, would highly recommend
great experience as always, many thanks Guler!
Alex is great. As always he is very friendly and knows what I want
I went in for a partial balayage. The colour was too bright, not blended very well, and had an irregular bright stripe that stood out. Great staff and offered me the chance to come in to redo the toner, which I did but then that was too dark (left on longer than the previous toner). The staff are lovely but I definitely wouldn't come back for colour.
Wouldn’t trust anybody else with my eyebrows!

About

I’m Miranda. I’ve worked in Barbican/ old street as a stylist for the last 20 years. I love my job. And I love my clients. Gender is not important and I will charge you for my time, not your gender. I believe any client is a person rather than a client. You are who you want to be, your hair is important, and I will take time with every single one of you, to figure out your particular hair. I love any hair, whether it’s curls, blondes, dark, short or long hair. And I’ll mix you a great G&T.

About

Hi, I am Jon, I have been doing hair for 33 years and 25 of those in the city of London. There's nothing like the feeling of giving someone a boost of confidence by doing their hair just the way they like it. Hairdressing is everything to me and I show that passion in my work and the service I give to my clients which I guess reflects in their amazing loyalty to me.
