I've been here 3 times and never struggled getting an appointment or had any issues. They saved my hair when another local salon did a horrific job.

She was not only very sweet and friendly, she TOTALLY got got exactly what I was looking from the look at one photo I had saved on my phone. She didn't ask a whole lot of questions other than ensuring that I understood and was comfortable with just how short my hair was going to be. She did it exactly as I asked! Sometimes I've had stylists work on my hair and then at the end ask which direction I part my hair even though I walked into the salon with the part on the right! I know it's minor but how could you miss that if your business is hair? Jennifer didn't ask, not only that, she cut it dry which is great when you have wavy to curly hair so you can tell just how short it will look when the hair is dry. I will totally back next time!

The owner has some mental issues. He is loud, extremely rude and very bad manner. He commented on…read moremy English understanding when his own English is just the beginner standard. He yelled me when I reflected I will never come back. All these behaviour is because I changed my appointment time. I am lucky that he did not cut my hair. I would never want him to have my money. This attitude of running business is completely wrong and I am sure he would not be around very long. He is nasty. His language and behaviour is abusive. I should report him to consumer affairs department. There are so many hairdressers around, no one should need to experience what I experienced today. I did not let him upset me, I went to another good hairdresser who cut my hair to my liking. Nasty people are always the losing themselves and they will never be happy in this world.

When you move to a new city, it can be terrible to find a new hairdresser! I've recently found…read moremyself in this predicament, and got brave and tried a new place. I was drawn in by the online bookings & reasonable prices, and got super lucky when I found Kylie at Miss Gertrude! First of all, they treat you to coffee or tea upon arrival (yum!) and Kylie really listened to me and gave me the exact cut I was after. Now, i've had very short hair for a very long time, and it is obvious when someone doesn't quite know what they're doing with my hair. In fact, I got my hair cut at a beauty school/training place for a few years, so I know what a bad cut looks like! Kylie gave me a technically excellent haircut, and what's more, she books in complimentary tidy-up appointments after three weeks. Highly recommended.

I've traveled the world and this was one of the best most well rounded experiences I have had at a salon. Aesthetically, the space is fantastic. Excellent design, modern but inviting, and everyone is incredibly friendly and genuine. Added to this the level of tailored professionalism by my stylist- Giovanni, Ugh- I can't recommend this salon enough! I'll be going back for sure and I highly recommend that you go to Miss Gertrude for all of your hair needs! (Giovanni is exceptional)

Based on Yelp reviews, I went to take a look at the salon. It was very busy on a Wed afternoon, which I took as a good sign and made an appointment for Friday. Atsuko did a fantastic job cutting and coloring my hair. Her attention to detail was impressive - she spotted mistakes in my previous haircut that even I hadn't noticed, and was very careful the the color didn't splatter or run onto my skin or clothing. I brought some photos of my ideal cut - she did a great job marrying the style to what my hair actually does. She even gave me some tips on how to blow dry it better when I am doing it myself. Plus, she managed to pull this all off in less than 2 hours! (And it didn't feel rushed). My hair looks amazing and I am so happy with it! And even though they seem to always be busy, they are somehow able to fit people in on short notice so don't be shy about calling them.

The team is beyond amazing, and their kindness, attention to detail, and warmth make every visit feel like self-care for your soul. Getting my haircut here is like therapy, so gentle, so relaxing, I almost fall asleep every time. It's not just about looking good when I leave (which I always do!), but about feeling good too. That's rare. I will never go anywhere else. This place is special, and the people here make it what it is. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for always making me feel seen, valued, and beautiful. I recommend this place with all my heart. Love you all!
