Cheryl has learnt her trained whilst working with some of the most renowned figures in the world of hair. After completing her initial training and qualifications with Charlie Miller, she then went on the do further training with Toni & Guy and qualified with them too. She specialises in blow drying hair, and refuses to use straightening irons to finish a blow dry as she believes you should be able to achieve a sleek, smooth finish with a hairdryer and brush alone. Cheryl also likes to focus on the condition of hair and ensuring that clients can achieve the same salon finish at home. She achieves this by giving them a style they can work with and maintain, and by teaching them how to blow dry and style their own hair while she works her magic.

There is a Starbucks coffee bar available in the hotel, from which you can order any drinks and Cheryl also has a food menu available so you can nibble away while you have your hair done.

There is lots of hotel parking the clients to utilise and the salon is on many bus routes. The Gyle shopping centre, Edinburgh Airport and Maybury Casino are all very close, as is the city bypass, so CM Hair can be easily reached from all over the city and beyond.
