I have been to numerous salons before and I have to say, this is one of the best. I got my hair done by Amelia and she was brilliant! I have quite long hair and trying to get me to cut anything off it is a battle. Amelia was really great. She made sure I was ok with how much was being taken off it, and made me feel so comfortable - she has a wonderful personality! The salon itself it lovely and relaxing, and the complimentary menu makes it feel like a spa. I will definitely be recommending this place to my friends.

Needing a hair cut, I stopped by early and hung around until (conveniently) the shop owner arrived at 10:00 AM. She did an excellent job of clipping away at the hair and keeping up an interesting conversation. I am very pleased with the cut and enjoyed the professionalism. I would absolutely return.

I arrived at about 4.45pm on a Thursday and there was no one else, so I was seen to immediately. The owner was friendly, chatted a little with me, asked me thoroughly about each step and made suggestions on how best to deal with my hair. It felt like being in competent hands. Since it was only a trim, she did a dry cut that cost only £15. Overall: top marks!

I've had a rocky relationship with Headmaster's. It's a nice place and feels very professional as…read moreit's a large chain of salon's in the UK. It's also in a convenient location in the town centre by the Broad street mall. I was first introduced to Headmaster's in London near Paddington station and had consistently amazing results with my colourist Thea. Yet, the branch in Reading leaves something to be desired. The staff have given me both great and terrible results. The worst being some highlights done last year which were so uneven and over-processed. They responded professionally when I went back and gave me a full refund and another colour on top in an attempt to make my hair look normal again. However, it hasn't been the same since and I've been searching for the best hairdresser in Reading for a while now. I wish I could have found someone there I would be happy to recommend but nothing yet. I don't completely hate headmaster's but I can't love them either because I don't know the staff there enough. So, my main recommendation would be to go with a senior stylist or colourist if you decide to go here. I put pricey because the last time I went I felt it was very inflated for what I got. However, you can get good deals if you use the student discounts and recommend a friend or birthday discounts.

After a brief wait (it was surprisingly busy for a Saturday morning), my stylist brought me to a chair and asked me how I wanted my cut.

It was loud, which did make it challenging to understand my stylist at times. Otherwise, it was clean and professional.

The salon is dirt cheap around 15-20 pounds for a lady's hair cut.

You don't need to book an appointment either, so you can go there and if they are busy you can do some shopping in the Oracle and then come back a little bit later.

The second time, I went for a blow dry and as I have long, somewhat curly hair and a lot of it, I asked the receptionist to make sure we booked enough time as in other places they've underestimated this mane and things have been rushed last minute. She assured me Kevin, the stylist, was a pro and would take care of me in under an hour. Kevin is a rockstar. It took him 40 minutes, part of which I slept through as he also managed to be very gentle :). This is magic, I tell you.
