Was on the hunt for a vegan friendly, cruelty free salon and this place came highly recommended by…read moresome fellow vegans. They don't have a sign up yet, but it's really easy to find. Just diagonally across the road from the Sparkle Horse. My appointment was on halloween. They had a horror movie playing in the background, bottles of fizz and had all gone to the effort of putting on face paint and getting into the spirit. Lovely girls, really chatty and listen to exactly what you want. I went for my usual Sombre/Balayage colour with a cut and blow dry. It only cost £65, which is very reasonable. They even told me where I could buy the vegan products they used on my hair (Sally's). My hair is in great condition, even after having colour done. Can't wait for my next appointment with these gals!

Since she started getting vegan clients Ashleigh who owns the Style Bar has been investigating…read morewhich hair products are suitable for vegans, and now she has her own salon she's introducing a make up person who will also have vegan beauty products. One of the staff has been trying to wangle a discount for clients across at the Sparkle Horse, which would be great if that comes about as I've enjoyed my time in there too the few times I've been in. She's also looking at getting in someone to do Botox - which is not my thing for a few reasons, but it might be there some time soon if you want it. The one thing I wasn't keen on was that the sinks seemed a bit low when I was getting my hair washed - I think I remember one time I was in a place where the sinks could be adjusted for height, but I only go to the hairdressers two or three times a year so I can cope with that.

Ok I have to update my review from 11 years ago(!) - just for fun…read more I've been having my hair cut by Meg since... 2009 I think? I've been getting my hair cut at Rainbow Room salons since about 2005, though. I moved away in 2016, but Meg is still there and I still stop in whenever I'm in Glasgow because she just knows how to work with my hair better than anyone else. The salon has been remodeled recently and it looks fantastic. It's really modern, super bright, and they've made great use of the space. You still get a great view of George Square, too. The stylists seem to enjoy how functional it all is. Now that they have reopened they've continued to have strict protocols - minimising contact, spacing out appointments, and requiring masks. So much has changed, and so little. They still take the time to sit down and get to know their clients, consult on what they're looking for, and include some little luxury extras like a head massage before they wash your hair. They use good products and tools. My hair always looks and feels great once Meg is done with it. She also takes into account how it will grow out. Honestly, I usually leave thinking it's a bit short, but then 2-4 weeks later it sits exactly how I had hoped. With other hairdressers I often find I have split ends after a few weeks, but my most recent cut still looks great 6 weeks on and I'm still getting compliments on it. If you're looking for a hair salon in Glasgow, look no further.

I had never even heard of a blow dry bar before coming here but apparently they are very popular in…read morethe US (New York & California) and slowly catching on over here. The concept is pretty simple: get your hair washed & blow dried into a choice of about 8 styles for £20. You can add on special hair treatments (a BLODeluxe they call it here) using L'Oreal Professional products for an extra £8 or throw in a relaxing hair massage too for £12. You can also request a special up-do (bring in a photo) and that with the blow dry costs £35. They also provide a make-up & party lashes service too (again for extra). I was here alongside my fellow bridesmaid & bride the morning of her wedding and she had paid for us all to have our hair blow dried exactly how we wanted. I chose to have mine big & wavy. Having never been somewhere like this before I was unsure how it would go but upon entering the salon the staff were all super friendly & welcoming and they wasted no time in getting our hair washed straight away. The lady who done my hair was very lovely & chatty and I soon felt at ease there. I always enjoy getting my hair done so having a cheeky wee blow dry for this special day was a real treat. I was offered a drink whilst getting my hair done which was lovely and this salon, being quite new, is bright, airy & modern. I always wish I could recreate that special hairdresser/stylist blow dry...it's magic! The amount of volume & body she managed to give my hair was great - it is now 2 days after my blow dry & my hair still feels fuller! She used big curlers through my hair & also curled it using the straighteners (a technique, I admitted, I can never master being the total straighteners novice I am) and asked if I was wearing a flower of anything in my hair so allowed for that too. Really nice attention to detail. Unfortunately it happened to be an incredibly windy day the day we came here so I did find after about an hour some of my curls had dropped a bit but that's just my hair - it tends to refuse to be curly! Haha! Luckily a fellow bridesmaid had a curling wand on hand so she re-did a few strands for me & I hairsprayed it some more. I had many compliments on my hair that day (and even today I did too!) so I know they done a grand job and the other bridesmaids also looked lovely not to mention the bride herself who looked beautiful. BloDry is a great idea & perfect for those who want that 'just out of the hairdressers' feel but not want to get their hair cut or coloured. I can see by how busy they were that day that this place is going to be, if not already, pretty popular.

This was a whole new concept to me! I was really excited booked in advance and paid a deposit. When…read moreI got there I got a pretty dry unprofessional greeting,then taken over to get my hair washed, which was neither relaxing nor lasted any longer than 5 minutes tops with no additional asking for head massage or conditioning treatment. No mention of a cuppa or refreshment offered. So then i got my make up done now this was great the girl was friendly and listened to exactly what I wanted and spent lots of time creating my look I wanted the full HD make up.My hair was a bit of a disappointment I asked for big hair look, and out came these metal barrel brushes which were sort of rollered on to my hair and left to hang so I had like 10 brushes hanging off my head which 1 cant be good for my hair as it would surely break it and 2 really uncomfortable and tangled when it was being unravelled. My hair looked okay but no idea why 10 brushes were hanging off my head when some professional heated rollers would have done the same job more professionally with less damage.So going to pay I was charged extra for the HD and lashes which was fine no problem at all but my deposit hadn't been taken off and the pdq card machine was working but they had run out of till roll for it. So about 1 and a half hours later yes my make up was wonderful my hair was okay but it really really lacked professionalism and enthusiasm. Not sure if I would go back which is a shame loved my make up.

I don't think there's ever been a time I've stepped foot in to this salon and not walked out a…read morechanged woman. Mainly because I always do something drastic with my hair, or have a lovely massage. This being my favourite salon because it's an Aveda Salon, I try to come in here as much as possible. The amazing thing about this place are their Last minute deals on their website. I managed to scoop up a cut and style and a manicure both at discounted prices, both perfectly last minute before new years eve! I started my day of beauty with a shellac manicure. Typically, I go to these wham bam thank you ma'am kind of nail salons that are looking for a quick turnover. I was in shock when i was led down to the massage area of the salon and was given a manicure in one of the massage rooms. It was so peaceful and relaxing and the nail technician was friendly to boot. It's a rare occasion that any nail technician is chatty, let alone honestly seems like she cares about what you're saying. It was a nice touch. Next, she did my eyebrows, which were in desperate need of a good shaping. Again, another relaxing experience, everything was sanitary and clean, unlike other places in Glasgow that I've been to before. After I had my nails and brows done, i was led back upstairs to meet Jade, the stylist who did my hair. I always go in to Aveda when I want a change, and this time was no different. I was taken by an assistant who offered a complimentary head massage while I waited for Jade. Usually, I can take those or leave them, but I'm glad I took her up on the offer. With just enough pressure, she massaged my head and it was like heaven. I was just getting over a chest cold that was holding on for dear life, so it felt really nice to be pampered for a bit. She then took me over to wash my hair, which is always a treat, because Aveda products are by far my favourite and I always love using them. After that, the magic happened. My hair was just about past my shoulders and I decided to get an inverted bob. This style suits my face shape and it really brightens up my features. Jade is an amazing stylist, who is chatty and very confident when she's cutting hair. In between the cut and the styling, she blow dried part of my hair dry to get a better feel for how to cut it. While that was happening, the assistant offered me a hot bevvy, which I chose Hot Chocolate. She also gave me a complimentary hand massage. I was on cloud nine by the time I walked out of there. Of course I loved the end result and so did my guy, who I met for drinks after. It really was an amazing experience as always and I would highly recommend Jade as your stylist and James Dun's House as your salon!

One of their main selling points is the fact that they use Aveda - a totally organic and natural hair product. It smells amazing. If I could eat my hair, I would.

This Glasgow branch is very nice, very trendy and modern, but it's very much in the shadows of the Aberdeen branch and so has higher prices to boot. Although it is a lovely salon and the staff are brilliant, the prices are a bit steep. The Aberdeen branch is brilliant, however!!

I'd always wondered what this south side salon was like, but I was content in my long term relationship with my hairdresser. Unfortunately she up and moved to Australia earlier this year with just a letter in the post to let me know (heartbreak!) so I needed to find someone new. It took me an exorbitant amount of time to even book for a haircut and so by the time I made it here I was well in need of a cut. The salon is nice, if not a bit wee. There's an area downstairs too which is the beauty area which is good for privacy (they also do nails). I had my hair washed and massaged (a little more firmly than I'd normally like) and then my hair was taken care of by Lindsay. I wasn't looking for anything drastic, just a simple tidy and that's exactly what I got as well as getting my non-existent fringe sorted out. She was great at styling my hair just how I liked it as well, which was appreciated. They also have a loyalty card which gives you your 4th cut for 1/2 price, as well as an app which seems like it might have some good offers on it from time to time.

This was about 18 months ago and it's now become my go to place. It's open throughout the weekend and late some evenings so it's an achievable place to go if you have a busy job like I do. Price wise I think it's reasonable £30 - £40 for cut and blow dry depending on the level of person you go for. And they don't try to push lots of extra products (treatments?!?) when you are getting your hair washed etc. Which I like. Recently had quite a drastic cut here from very long to a bob and felt like the staff talked it through well with me and that I could speak up about how I wanted it. Rather than that awkward squeaky yeah I like it when really you don't. Would highly recommend - not gone for five stars as not had any other treatments from here

Emma is absolutely world-class, combining professionalism, artistry, and warmth in a way that's rare to find. On top of that, Emma went out of her way to adjust her schedule to fit me in as a last-minute client. She came to Cameron House to do hair and makeup for me, my mother, and my godmother. That kind of dedication meant the world to me on such an important day. I can safely say she is a top 1% practitioner for hair and makeup, on par with the very best I've worked with in Hollywood. Whether it's a wedding, elopement, special event, or professional work in film, television, or personal styling, Emma brings the same level of excellence and care that top industry professionals do.

I would also like to mention that my daughter, who is on the autistic spectrum has tried many hairdressers in the past but found it very difficult as she suffers anxiety, it got to the stage where I was cutting her hair myself. I persuaded her to try Taylor Ferguson's, she hasn't looked back, now visiting regularly and really enjoying her experience too! The customer definitely comes first in this salon.
