You get a good shot of vodka before she starts with the scissors... :) Which was perfect as I went from long to short so I needed it haha! I have very unruly super curly hair and always wanted it long but it never grew passed my shoulders. So I gave her freedom to do whatever. She made is short and so easy to maintain!!! I am going back tomorrow now three months later :) Also she does not tell me what I have to do, but works around how I treat my hair which is great. She said 'I cant train your hands', which makes sense as I am used to moving through my hair in a certain way for ages now. Having curly hair, I've been traumatised many many times since being a little girl coming from hair dressers. I have to say, this is one of the best experiences I ever had! So happy I found it!

As someone who used to go to Cheynes and spend a LOT more on the same treatments, I think the prices are completely reasonable - especially for the quality of dye/cut that is provided.

I've used this hairdresser for years, When George and Peter moved from Buddies in Bath Street I…read moremoved with them. Unlike most hairdressers, George doesn't talk about holidays he talks about planning regs, gabby cabbies and the state of the world. They have a big plasma telly and like to watch the racing. As they are not city centre they don't charge city centre prices. George can really cut hair. I straighten my very curly hair and this really shows that he can cut well. They'll tell you if you've messed up your home colouring but they never make you feel bad about it. George will come in early if that's the only time you can make. I'm always having fringe emergencies which he fixes without complaint. I can't say enough about the Jon Paul experience.

Maria gave new life to my hair, she had also applied Fibre Clinix, a very nice hydrating oil from Schwarzkopf, which I ended up buying for myself too. I felt Maria is a well trained hairstylist, she took into consideration, my desired length and shape. I am very pleased with my revived hair and I will definitely go back to Maria.

The appointment was booked with a designer (mid level price) and I have to say 3 1/2 hours later she looked amazing. She was pretty pleased too :) Well worth checking out.

I LOVE Vanity Thrills. Like the previous reviewer, I was super sad when miss dixiebells closed, but…read moreoverjoyed when I found out that Ariana was doing her own thing. It is such a treat getting my hair done, and makes getting ready for a party so much easier, especially since I got my make up done too. I literally just had to step to my dress and decide which handbag to use. Ariana worked her magic and sculpted my hair into victory rolls (caves not tunnels!) and the intricate work at the back of my hair is beautiful. She is a cool gal and knows her stuff. I like getting all my hair up, as then I can sleep in a head square (not the sexiest look I grant you) but I can eek three days out if my up doo as it is firmly in place with setting lotion / lacquer Kirby grips and hair spray. I had my make up done by Cat (freelance professional make up artist) that Ariana works with regularly. She is super fun and I honestly don't know how she made me look so good. My skin was glowing and my flicks were sharp. I kept doing a double take to see that it was actually me! I was so pleased with it. Thank you ladies for working your magic and getting this girl dolled up for her party.

Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, Vanity Thrills has emerged from the recently deceased Miss…read moreDixiebelle. I was absolutely horrified when I FINALLY had a reason to go vintage and Miss Dixiebelle was long gone, replaced by (I think) a cat cafe or a barber shop. Either way, devastation briefly ensued until I discovered Vanity Thrills, lurking on the side. recently launched after MD's closure, and with barely there premises in Abbeyhill shared with Cutie Cool Nails, I managed to get my hair style set in time for my vintage night out. My sister and I spent a lovely Sunday afternoon with Ariana being primped and I have to say, I actually never believed my hair would ever look that good. Mind, there were a million bobby pins in there, but it was an absolute work of art (that I couldn't for the life of me take a photo of). My sister, turned into my grandmother (looks wise, not age!) with a lovely bob set. Utterly delighted, and Ariana is lovely. Highly recommended, and I can't wait for another reason to go back. At the moment, the website is under construction, but there is an active Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/VanityThrillsVintageHairandBeautyParlour/timeline), so check it out to see the Vintage offerings there. VT does home appointments as well as at the salon, but I suspect the tea and biscuits won't flow quite as plentifully there!

I've got 99 problems but my hair ain't one of them!…read more Like most ladies, I am slightly obsessed with having good hair. Now what good hair is, will be a subjective point of view, but for me it is manageable and generally shiny and healthy looking as a result of a great cut. I first reviewed Angel Hairdressing about 3 months ago on my first visit. It's a local salon and after standing by it waiting for the bus for 2 years, I decided to give it a go when my budget couldn't stretch to a posh town salon do. So now, it is review No.200 and it had to be a 5 * review. Even though I my last hair cut was 3 months ago - I hadn't actually reached hair crisis point. My style had held perfectly even when growing and it was only as it really started to thicken up again (and growing very quickly) that I decided to cut it back again. It is probably the first hair cut that I've had where I've left a salon, the do has lasted a good few days before I had to wash and dry myself and it has been something I have been able to recreate myself, abet in Claire form, and not hairdresser form. Again - same fab cut. It is a small salon with one sink and 4 chairs. There are two stylists - Lisa who I think is the owner and Kerry who cuts my hair and who I think is fab. Same wet and dry cut as before - still in about 50 minutes even though my shape from last time had still held well, so again, great attention to detail to ensure my hair is perfect. Fab friendly and cheery service and great prices - still £28 for a cut and blow dry and I think it is under £15 for a wash and blow dry. It is not a tea/coffee and a biccy type place but to be honest, I never got the chance to have that any time before as when the cutting starts, that lean forward to get the cuppa could result in hair catastrophe and I'm not stupid enough to risk that. Busy weekend ahead with work and catching up with friends and I'm enjoying my glossy, well cut hair. So Angel Hairdressing, I'm sharing the Yelpy love and making sure my 200th review is a good one :-)

I've now been to Angel Hairdressing two times, and both of those I was pleased as punch by the…read moreresults! For one, it's absurdly close to my flat, which makes visits and appointments a breeze. Secondly of course would be the lovely staff. I've been served by the same hairdresser both my trips, and she remembered me the second go round, which makes for a pleasant welcome. Size-wise, It's a small joint, but more than enough room for the ladies to perform their miracles, and it feels reasonably homey inside. What seals the deal for me is the prices are totally reasonable--I've seen some places that make my eyes practically roll back in my head around town, and I've never been one to willingly shell out a week's paycheck for my hair. But Angel has fair prices to match the excellent service. My first go featured a simple cut, the second, a full coloring, and I'd give five stars to each venture. This is definitely my go-to salon! Extra perk: I was offered a cup of coffee or tea while waiting for my color to set. Don't mind if I do!
