Got western hair but don't have that Paul Gerrard budget? Tommy is your spot…read more Centrally located in an unassuming second floor storefront on Lyndhurst Terrace, Tommy Hair Design is a simple local salon, well-priced, and deft around a head of fine hair or blonde highlights. Fast and able to accommodate a booking with about a day's notice, this hair hotspot flexes to my impulsiveness with my look. Like many other foreigners in Hong Kong, I've always come to Edmund here. His English is excellent and I usually bring in a couple of photos for cut and color inspiration, but yield to his advice on what's feasible in a single session without damaging my hair too much. His color is always vibrant, his cutting is precise, and his legendary six-simultaneous-round-brush blow dry technique is on-point. Customer service is exceptional for Hong Kong too - I once was unhappy with the match of my root to mid color and Edmund happily took the time to fix it without complaint. While I wouldn't pin Tommy as the most upscale, chic salon or the most creative when it comes to deferring to the stylist's creative vision, it's solidly reliable and the price is right for an entry- or early-career professional who wants to look her best in the +852.

Appalling salon. I wouldn't give it any stars if I could. Don't believe the hype, Edmund isn't…read moreworth the money. On a recommendation, I went to Edmund in July 2016 for half-head highlights. I'd had unsatisfactory highlights at Toni & Guy, so I was looking for a new stylist to fix the orange in my hair. Edmund did a satisfactory job at improving the colour at the roots but said I would have to do a couple more sessions to eliminate the orange streaks that ran the length of my (very long) hair. I returned at the end of August to redo the roots and highlight the remaining orange streaks, but despite discussing this, Edmund only highlighted the roots and then walked away to another client. I asked the girl if I could speak to him again but she said no as he was busy with another client. I persisted and he eventually returned. When I reminded him of the orange streaks, he became annoyed. He snapped that it would cost me more and that my hair would be dry. I explained that I understood but wished for him to colour it anyway. He reluctantly did the majority of the remaining orange sections, but after the wash, he returned to tell me that he would not do that again and he would only highlight my roots next time. I returned again in November to have the roots redone. Previously, we'd discussed going lighter at each visit as I wanted platinum blonde, not ash blonde. At my first visit we went lighter, but my second visit was the same tone. This time he said he would just put in more ash. This time he started in a different section and put in less highlights than before. He finished in half the time he had previously taken, and then walked away. After the wash, I could see large sections where there was no colour at the roots. He had put in less highlights and they were chunkier. I asked him why the highlights didn't go to the roots this time and he replied, "I don't do highlights like that, very bad for the skin." Then I asked if next time he could go closer to the scalp and he said, "No. Please pay, goodbye." He removed my cape, gestured to the front desk, and walked away. In the 15 years I've been getting blonde highlights, this is the furthest from the root that anyone had gone. So I emailed Ivy Sung from The Upper Room and sent her photos. She kindly fit me in a few days later and fixed my hair. Ivy fixed the roots, treated the hair, and achieved the platinum blonde I wanted in one session. She is the best stylist I've ever been to. I regret listening to the recommendation and not going to her in July instead. She is meticulous, dedicated, and honest. I relayed my experience with Edmund and she was appalled. She also assured me that my hair wasn't damaged, that despite having been bleached twice in less than a week, my hair was strong and healthy. She showed me the obvious demarcation at the back of my head where Edmund hadn't done the highlights down to the roots, nor had he done half-head highlights. Instead, he had stopped only a inch from the crown when he should've continued highlights down to the ear line. I contacted Tommy Hair to request a partial refund. They refused and said they would only fix it or give me a 50% discount the next time I visited; I will never let Edmund nor any other stylist at that salon touch my hair again. *At my last visit with Edmund, another client was there having her colour redone. She wasn't happy with their work and said the colour they had put in the previous day was too grey and yellow in parts. You could see large sections of grey mixed with an unattractive yellow (She did not have naturally grey hair). When they were finished there was little change in the colour and she did not appear happy with the result.

So you can only imagine how I felt when my worst nightmare came true: my CHI died halfway through straightening my hair - and only half my hair was straightened! Although this happened on a weekday, I'm lucky to have a flexible work environment where I can decide to work at home if needed. So while working from home, I took a short break, put my hair up in a bun (so no one would notice the half-ironed monstrosity that was my hair) and ran to Professional Hair Products to see if I could find a replacement ASAP. I found their section of flat irons and though I didn't recognize any of the brands, I chose one that looked legit and had adjustable heat settings. A quick swipe of my credit card and I was able to walk away with a working replacement. I've been using my flat iron for a few weeks now and I'm happy with my purchase! Long story short - this shop is centrally located and has you covered for any hair emergency you might have!

Extremely horrible experience, my hair was cut really short (around 30 cm has been cut because the hair dresser could not speak English well and pretended he understood what I wanted). My hair was origianlly touching my bottom and now, it is slightly touching my shoulder. I am extremely upset. He cannot even understand how my hair texture should be cut, and the way he cut it was totally disastrous and unsuitable. I called and went into the Salon both time speaking in Cantonese. When I sat down, the hair dresser came over and greeted me in English and I thought he could not speak any Cantonese so I continued to communicate with him in English (btw I'm bilingual) so I explained that I wanted to trim my hair to the length that would touch my waist. I had also explained because my hair is naturally wavy so I need a big session and length of layers to increase volume to make my hair looks very wavy, he seemed to understand me well and knew what I wanted. I was led to another area to get my hair washed and I spoke in Cantonese to the staff all way through and then I heard my hair dresser spoke in Cantonese to another staff so I asked him if he could speak Cantonese and why didnt he speak to me in Cantonese in the first place. However he still didn't confirm and ask me again how I wanted my hair to be cut. When I realised, he cut off 30cm of my hair. I paid and left really upset and shock.

I have gone to Technical for several different reasons: nails (manicure and pedicure), hair (cut…read moreand highlights), and full body massage. I make my appointments in advance - sometimes even just a day in advance - and I have always been able to be fit into the schedule regardless of the appointment type. For my nails, I went to the salon, was brought upstairs and was seated in a chair that was in the middle of the room next to the walls of the massage rooms and looking at the stairs. Needless to say, there was a bit of traffic of people coming in and out throughout the process and (admittedly as a westerner) it was disappointing not to find myself in a massage chair with my feet soaking in the basin. Instead, my feet were soaking in a slightly too small wooden basket that had a plastic bag lining. (I know now this is sadly pretty standard around these parts.) The beautician then carefully attended to my hands and feet, but I just wasn't impressed - the nail polish wasn't just on my nails but it was on my fingers too, the nail polish was chipped before I even sat up from my chair, and overall it just wasn't the greatest experience. For my hair, I called to book an appointment and I distinctly remember the woman on the phone saying "hair cut" so I corrected to say "highlights." However, I should have asked again upon arrival, because after sitting in a chair waiting for someone to attend to me they brought me over to get my hair shampooed. After which, I asked, "Normally when I get highlights they don't wash my hair first?" The receptionist then looked horrified and said they had me down for just a haircut. Six hours later, I had my highlights, I had my haircut, I had paid close to HK$3000. My hair didn't look different in the slightest. The stylist encouraged me to come back in May to work on the color more, however, I will never ever be getting my hair done here again - its too expensive, it took WAY too long, and the hair stylist is triple-quadruple booked. The only reason I am giving this place a 3-star review is because of their full body massages. This was the first and only reason why I will ever come here - because the full body massages are HK$280 for 45-minutes and THEY ARE INCREDIBLE. The two different woman I have had do the massages were really good at feeling where my knots were, working them out, and ensuring that it was literally the best massage I've ever had. My only complaint being that one of the massage therapists chose to respond to texts on her phone DURING my massage. That was quite annoying, but you know what, if its that good - I will forgive them just this once.
