This is the hairdressers that I've been using for a number of years. It's a family run business -…read morethe father works here on a number of days, and the manager is his daughter Kim. All the staff are exceptionally friendly and well trained. Kim does my hair and she's a great hairdresser. They've recently renovated and extended the premises, and it's modern and welcoming. They've also added a beauty salon upstairs, which also has sunbeds. It's a good idea to book, but you can normally get an appointment at short notice - unless it's close to Christmas!

They always provide an excellent service and are sure to advise you on all the upcoming new trends in terms of style and length. They have a very good range of products, including their own range of products which are great value for money. And finally the cutting, I've had my hair cut by all the girls and the gent that works there and they all did a great job! I would 100% recommend this salon to everyone!!! 5 stars!!

Cowbridge Road is not usually considered as one of the greatest and classiest of streets in…read moreCardiff, but there is the odd business that muddles on through that reputation and pops out the other side in a gleeful burst of high quality. Fortunately, Cat's Whiskers is one of those places. This hair salon is bright and cheerful, and well decorated to boot. It all speaks of a successful business that cares about its appearance, but knows that too much severity (I think we all know the type of salon I'm referring to) will scare away the poor customers. The service here is genuinely friendly, for all appearance they actually care about what you have to say, rather than feel obliged to talk to you while they work. I'm not a huge expect on hair products, but the ones they stock and bright and reasonably priced, and the products used during the cut left my hair soft and smelling of almonds. I really rate this hairdresser, simply because of its welcoming attitude to young and old alike. Oh, and the cut was top notch.

So if your looking for that rare hairdressers that actually listen to what you want go here and you will find just what you are looking for! Thanks Cats Whiskers

It's a professional service and the staff are very pleasant. The best thing is the low cost because a cut costs me only £6 (I was quoted £50 in a different hairdressers in Neath over a year ago!!!) So definitely good value.

I had the worst haircut ever this week. I'd been before and it was okay but a different stylist…read morecut my hair. It's been hacked to pieces with long and short bits all over and shaved at the back so all I can do is hope it grows quickly. It was cheap (£7) and I got what I paid for, well actually I didn't, it was overpriced by £6.50. I'm going to go to a proper salon in town on Monday and hope they can rescue it somehow so in the end it will have cost me more than if I'd gone somewhere decent in the first place. Don't say I didn't warn you, this place should be avoided.

This is a lovely salon using equally lovely Aveda products. They moved from their original…read moreshopfront on St Mary Street just around the corner onto the quieter Bakers Row, which is a better location. I really like Aveda's weirdly earthy, woody fragrances - and their products are more natural than most used in salons, with up to 95% natural ingredients, according to my stylist. Even the colour is up to 99% naturally derived, so it's less damaging to your hair. The staff seem to be proud to work here, and the salon itself is a relaxing environment in which to spend an hour or so. Some of their stylists specialise in hair for weddings, balls or big nights out - and many have worked as stylists on TV and film productions. They also offer little extras such as free fringe trims between cuts, which is great for regulars. Good city centre salon using more natural products than most - and they even offer a 10% student discount with a valid NUS card.

I'm quite particular about my hair. You might not know to look at me, but if I don't have it cut…read moreright, then it just looks even worse. Fine, very straight hair is always tricky to deal with a lot of hairdressers just try and make it bigger. Doesn't work. With fine hair, if the fringe goes a bit wrong then there is no going back, thinning or tinkering. It needs to be razor straight. So. I couldn't see anymore. I needed a trim. I rang some of the bigger names and some of them refused to trim it, even if I paid, if I hadn't had my hair cut there. Eventually, I gave up, wandered across the road and walked into the first hairdressers I could find. Hair Lounge was a pleasant surprise. It doesn't look much from outside, but inside it is plush and the staff are friendly. I tentatively asked if someone could do my fringe, even though I didn't have my hair cut there, and they were more than happy. I only waited a few minutes and a lovely chap came and got me. He cut my fringe, to my specifications (I know, a hairdresser that listens!) and did it all with a smile. I asked who to pay, and he tried to say there was no charge - so I left a tip. Don't know what it would be like for a full do, but if you're fringe has gone awry...

This, I should make clear, is not one of those top hair and beauty salons like Toni & Guy, or anything like that. Instead, this is a locally run friendly establishment. The staff here are quite relaxed which is great, but can mean that you feel a bit like you're trespassing in someone's living room upon occasion. The cut was standard, but you get what you ask for. If you're only after a simple trim then this is great; I can't really comment on the other services they provide. The price was very good though; at cuts starting from £14. Bargain. The best thing is that the shampoo smells absolutely lovely. Perhaps that's just me though.

Since I have moved to Cardiff I have continuously gone to different barbers to try and find one that is cheapish and gives me a decent haircut. This place isn't bad at all actually and despite my worries of it being expensive with the word 'Design' in it, they cut this mans hair for a decent price. It's actually grown in really nice and shall hopefully last me a bit longer than it usually does thanks to this. The hairdresser herself was lovely and the normal awkward small chat fairly pleasant. I can't say for you girls out there about what they can do but from my own experience it's defiantly worth a try.
