Came here when i needed a quick trim before holiday as there is no need to book an appointment. My…read moreboyfriend joined me as he needed his hair doing also. To start with i sat in the waiting room listening to how the stylist hated doing bob cuts (her previous customer) i should have taken this as a warning and left then but i was assigned to another stylist and decided not to worry. As i sat in the chair i was informed that as my hair was thick it would cost extra so the total would be 30 pounds not 20 as advertised. I accepted because i needed it done and i know my hair can take more time than others. After a quick wash she cut my hair in a matter of minutes. I have never had a haircut so fast. She just went over my hair with the thinning scissors. Even though some people like a fast haircut i prefer them to take their time. But i was glad to get up because the stylist went on massive rant about how she hated students after i mentioned i was in uni. And this is where the fun started when me and my boyfriend left he told me of his experience. When he sat he asked for his hair to be cut with scissors not the clippers as this is the look he prefers and his hair does not suit clippers because of the way it grows. She complained that it was easier for her if she used clippers... How professional. But he insisted on scissors because that's what he wants. So she got on with the cut face like thunder and said it would cost extra. When we got home i looked at his hair... Which did not look great. The girl had butchered it. It was uneven and messy, but too late to complain. Luckily hair grows and two weeks later got this rectified somewhere else.... With scissors... And the barber was shocked by what a professional had done to his hair. Not worth any money. Bad haircuts and staff that complain about customers in front of customers. If they are not comfortable cutting hair in a particular way they should speak up and not attempt it themselves. Avoid

Alistair was recommended to me by one of the girls that worked in the Gym I go to. Her hair looked amazing so I set up a consultation with Alistair to talk through what I wanted. At first I wasn't sure I'd made the right choice. But as soon as I started talking to Alistair and got the feeling he would do a good job. He asked lots of questions and showed me picture of all the different cuts and colour he had done recently. Then he left me for 10 mins to Have a think about it while he attended to another customer. Once we agreed on what would look best for my hair type and skin tone he saved the picture down so next time we had it to hand. I booked an appointment and Alastair even offered me a discount as I was a new customer. I had my hair done yesterday. I was in the salon for over 3 hrs as I had both cut and colour done. The girls in the salon were very friendly and Alistair made sure at every step along the way I understood what he was doing to my hair and made sure I was happy with it. Alistair is very professional and great at what he does. He is down to earth and cares about his clients, wanting them to look their best and making sure they are 100% happy with Ur hair. I would definitely recommend him.

Alistair Cook is fantastic. I can't rate him highly enough. He is a very well known name, but…read moretotally down to earth. My waist length hair fell out due to illness and he was understanding, encouraging, thoughtful and sympathetic whilst still business like and 100% professional during a very traumatic time for me He cut my hair in to a style that suited the state it was in and covered any embarrassment. He showed me exactly how to recreate the look myself perfectly. As it has started to grow back he has been great, discussing my preferences, making suggestions on what suits me best and spending as long as it takes until I am entirely happy. He is so highly skilled and gives the most amazing up to the minute haircuts using the latest techniques and methods. Make an appointment with him, ask for him by name, you won't be disappointed, although be prepared to wait some time as he gives everybody such great service he may take a while getting to you - but it's worth it!

I need to mention that Sam's nails are brilliant. My one star review is a consequence of her lack…read moreof professionalism both in person and online and her attitude. She cries CONSTANTLY for "not having enough clients" and that "she's one of the best nail techs with so many awards that she should be piling up with new clients". Truth is: she hardly ever replies to messages, is unprofessional on social media, when you're in the salon she's unprofessional there too. Talking about other clients, getting involved in other people's business and not minding her own business. If you want to get your nails done at a place where you'll be made to feel inadequate to have your own opinion and that no one has had it worse than her then maybe it's a place for you. She plays the sympathy card all the time and it gets to the point when you think "is it then or is it you that's something wrong with?". No doubt this review will get screenshotted and posted on her Facebook for sympathy (without actually calling it that) and the "aw love don't worry about the haters". Word of advice Sam, you'll get a lot more clients and less of them leaving once you change your attitude to your own business. You expect people to come to you without you trying to keep them. Good luck Sam.

They also sell a good range of professional hair care, shampoo's and GHD's etc. I honestly cant imagine going anywhere else to get my hair done for a long time.
