And as you may be aware from my former Mufti review, I badgered a friend of mine into visiting them. I booked myself an appointment for Saturday with very high expectations, and they were met gallantly. Mufti is cool, there's no denying it. It's in the Northern Quarter for starters, it's run by guys, the music is unbelievably mellow and lovely and it's simple, clean and relaxing. They had me at the film magazines by the sofa. You might not be able to pick a hairdo from them but you can read through which films should have been TV shows. Agreed, journalists! Empire Records should SO have been a series, as should Watchmen. Ahem, where was I. Not that I'm leaving Salvation (http://www.yelp.co.uk/biz/salvation-hair-ltd-salford#hrid:iRY12h4CSS4gugZ1e-S2Pg), it just feels a little weird to walk in there without Alex, but I was more than intrigued to see what Mufti could do with my stupid hair type. Over the years I've tried and failed to make it more manageable, the only thing that really worked for me was a pixie cut. Now I've ill-advisedly grown it long again and its natural wave and supposed 'thinness but lots of it' have got the better of me. Hair, meet Karl, a genius, a lovely guy who washed my hair himself without getting some floor sweeper to do it and asked me questions about my hair routine throughout. I think he could tell from the clobber that I'm something of a vintage junkie, and my resulting style reflected that. A snip, a tweak, some conversations about Alex (he knew him very vaguely), advice on hair products and a confirmation that my hair is indeed thick (take THAT, Headmasters) and that short layers are fooling me into thinking my hair's manageable later, I looked in the mirror and was greeted with a silky head of waves worthy of a 40s movie star. I'm a convert.

The prices aren't too expensive either, so for the exceptional standard of service you're getting I think it's very reasonable.

The barbers are friendly enough and give a decent cut, but costing a lot more than my usual haunts in the city centre by around 36% for an average experience, I probably wouldn't return here unless I couldn't go back to Sergeant Ceasar or Joseph Lazante's Men's Room. 3*

Until my discovery of the brilliant Mufti this was the only place in Manchester would I would consistently get my hair cut. This was for two reasons: 1. Because, at £5 no matter the length of your hair, it was incredibly cheap. 2. Because the hairdressers who work there are so resoundingly, unrepentantly cheerful. They will talk to you about anything and not in the way that some hairdressers will, talking at you about the weather or what kind of mobile phone their boyfriend is getting. They will talk to you about what you're doing and be genuinely interested. They will tell you about interesting things that have happened to them. They will be interesting and interested and even though I don't usually enjoy making small talk with hairdressers I will find myself enjoying talking to them. The haircuts are nothing fancy; just a simple trim; a short back and sides; a buzzcut, if you're that way inclined, but you're happy with it in the end because they're happy and that makes you happy. And you'll walk up the stairs in a little happy daze, maybe doing a little happy jig, until you realise there's hair in your collar and now you'll be itching all day.

I arrived for my appt and was given one of their robes and was offered coffee. Carmen and I discussed my hair and what I wanted. As well as what I usually get done to it. She took her time washing it and making sure it was squeaky clean as well as added a little scalp massage. Then she went to work with the blow dryer, straightener while using some non heavy oils while I sat there and drank my coffee while chatting with my friends in NYC. It was a great experience overall. She didn't rush me and did an amazing job. Def worth 5 stars.

It's barely a £6 for a cut which is dead cheaper than a £25 at Razor Edge for a guy! My friends have vouched for always having a great conversation with the person cutting their hair, about politics and the Curry Mile! Quite the contrast from women, who are always talking about the anticipation of how the end result would be! Anyway, coming back to it, it's quite spacious and runs very quick. They people are friendly and very efficient at what they do. So all you boys out there, looking for a cheap hair cut and don't mind the spikes et al, give this a shot!

But lets face it if I hadn't had the discount card I would not have been able to have afforded Pierre Alexandre's prices. And no-one's even heard of him. Whose hair does he do that I want? Hmm. To get the hair I want I'd have to have extensions put in underneath so that is a lost cause but anyway - overpriced for what it is because to the untrained eye (mine) there was no difference between this and a cheaper salon.

Using the treatwell app I was able to book my appointment at Pierre Alexandre, completely hassle free. As I was booking last minute I got a really good deal so I felt it was really good value. You could pay upon booking but I opted to pay in the salon. So in terms of booking this place was great, really easy and affordable for last minute appointments. Overall my whole experience was ok, nothing to massively complain about, my haircut was good at the end of day and that is the most important thing. But the little extras you expect from a salon these days were lacking. The customer service was ok, nothing to rave about. The whole place felt a little bit unclean, it was late on a Saturday afternoon so I understand they were busy but it's quite a basic thing. I would go back, it was good value and my hair was good so happy days. I wouldn't, however, pay the full price. To warrant that they really need to up there game with their customer service.
