It's so risky to try out a new hair salon because your hair is something you can't even hide. But…read morewhen I came across a fantastic permanent hair colour treatment at a bargain price, I found myself lured in to Kai Ko's. I've avoided colouring my hair because I've found that hair stylists treat you generically during the consultation. Kai Ko's was different. When I went for the test patch, my stylist took her time work out the exact shade I wanted and showed how it would look in my hair. Colouring is a lengthy process but you're made to feel welcome. I was asked numerous times if I needed another magazine or hot drink. When styling the hair, I was given a fabulously glamourous finish that suited my hair and face. I left the salon feeling a million dollars and couldn't believe I got the treatment for such a reasonable promotional price.

That was three years back, and even though I now live outside of Birmingham, it is well worth the trip back every time my hair starts to feel out of control! The interior of the salon is neutral and modern, the greeting on arrival is always friendly. A nice stack of glossy magazines to read while you wait, and a welcome offer of a drink. My stylist was a refreshing change to the uniformed young trendies who used to cut my hair in bland city centre salons, where you'd think you were treating yourself, but always ended up with something not quite 'you'. The key here is that they listen to what you want, and somehow know what suits you and your hair. I had my wedding hair done here, and trouped my bridesmaids in too, so sure was I that the right look would be found. For classic styles this is THE place. Over the years I've spoken to my fair share of hairdressers about their holidays, and experienced the awkwardness as you try to work out what to say next above the din of the blow dryer. Not so here. Conversation flows easily, and I always leave feeling on cloud nine, not just because I'm delighted with my hair, but I feel so up-lifted having received a stream of non-stop compliments and thoughtful comments about whatever it is that is on my mind at the time. Fantastic! The salon is very reasonably-priced. I pay £24 for a cut and blow dry. Do remember cash or cheque book though - as yet they don't take credit cards or Switch.

Phase 2 is a cute little hairdressing parlour situated in Northfield. It's very well presented with…read moregreat and professional hairdressers that work there. They're very friendly, informative and good with recommending what you should do with your hair type and how to care for your hair. I would say it's the best hairdressing salon throughout Northfield and would definitely suggest that you take a look at what they can offer and for what prices before going to any other hair salon in Northfield. It's well worth the money and the outcome of your hair (I would say) will most likely be in a better condition than if you were to go elsewhere in the Northfield area.

I came here a few weeks ago for a simple manicure, my nails were not looking great and so I thought…read moreI would give this place a go as I had heard it was good and not too pricey either. Well I called to book ahead just in case they were too busy for walk ins and that was pretty simple and I had no trouble in getting a date and time that was convenient for me. When I went for my appointment the staff were really friendly and very welcoming. I did not have to wait too long before the nail technician was ready. I really liked the décor inside; the walls are simple but detailed with red and black pictures inside, which I think looks really good! The manicure itself was good and they had a nice selection of colours to choose from. Overall, I was very pleased with my nails and the quality of the service. I will definitely go again.
