I've got rubbish hair. I didn't used to, it used to be in okay condition, if slightly unruly, but since a disastrous dye job courtesy of my old hairdresser earlier in the year, I started dyeing it at home, and made it even worse - months of dark build up and very dry hair resulted.
I took my sorry barnet in to several salons in Croydon, who either refused point-blank to even attempt anything, and told me to go away and grow it out, or wanted several hundred pounds to make it a colour I didn't want it to be because 'it would be easier'. Only Alex at Ice in Croydon was confident that he could put my hair back to an approximation of my natural colour.
And he managed it, too, meaning that I have now sworn my undying (and un-dye-ing) devotion to him. Several of my friends go to Ice, too, and all are constantly delighted with the results for both colour and cut. What's more, it's fairly reasonable money, in the grand scheme of hairdressers. And, first time you go you get a voucher for 50% off for a friend, which in turn entitles you to 50% off next time you go, so if you get everyone in on the act you'll all be quids in. read more
