I chose this hairdressers as I was attending an event at the Hilton Metropole and needed an urgent hair cut ahead of flying out on a business trip. I was really pleased with the cut, I did direct the hairdresser on what I wanted, but she totally got what I meant and I was very happy given I didn't know much about the salon. There was scaffolding outside, but this does not reflect on quality of service esp for cost which I thought was very competitive.
