Well spaced out and stock was clear and organized. My girlfriends after a wig so ive seen a few of these places and im starting to wonder how they could do things differently. It hit me in this one: Customer Service. Out of all the shops we've been in this might be the first one with a shop keeper to ask what we were looking for an engage in a conversation. Made all the difference. Still no wig though.

Beauty Supreme is a shop in Erdington, selling mainly hair products and cosmetics. They have some…read moregood deals on eyelashes and also sell Crazy Color hair dyes for just £2.49. I went in to have a look at the wigs. The lady in store was quite friendly and helpful but they didn't have what I was after. There are all kinds of hair products and many colours and styles of wig. They also sell oil burners, which you an smell as you enter the store.

This large, diverse toiletries store is sort of like a cheaper, smaller version of Bodycare, which…read moreloses nothing whatsoever over the high-street chain in stock, customer service or cleanliness. Graham's stocks a vast range of shower gels, shampoos and various other bathroom essentials at remarkably low prices and the store's interior is very impressive, with spotless floors, meticulously neat shelves and ultra-wide aisles, all of which make for a very enjoyable, comfortable shopping experience. There are lots of great offers and a handful of bargain bins inside, and members of staff of more than willing to help when prompted. Mellow music is piped throughout the store and everything feels pleasant and laid-back, even when the store is busy, thanks to fast checkout assistants and a relaxed store atmosphere. I personally was very impressed by this little number and they'll definitely be seeing me again soon!

This shop is similar to Beauty Supreme, around the corner, in products and price but it doesn't…read morehave the same personal feel to it. It's much more of a generic wig and cosmetic shop. For some reason, most of the wigs are black. The last thing I want is a wig in the same colour as my hair but I guess if you want it to look natural then it makes sense. I suppose I shall have to look elsewhere on my quest for a ginger wig...

Now a balding asian man isn't expected to have great hair but if your surrounded by wigs all day im sure you'd give into temptation eventually and put one on. This shop is cramped to the point where if there is someone else browsing you have to keep moving down the isle as getting 2 people next to each other would push over the shelving. All the hair products and treatments you could wish for, with all the fake hair you'll never hopefully need.

Y'all know how important a good hair salon is to a Southern woman (hello Steel Magnolias). I spent…read moresome time trying out different salons since moving to the UK and am pleased as punch to have found Sixth Sense. Every person on staff is so friendly and welcoming. They really live up to their company values of making each customer feel special. I see stylist, Kimmy. She is fabulous. I can take in pictures and swatches of colors and she creates my vision. There is a reason the Sixth Sense stylists keep bringing home national hair awards. Every time I leave Sixth Sense, I feel like a million bucks without having to shell out a ton of money. Sixth Sense offers student discounts and have a loyalty card offering free products after just a few visits. Check their Facebook page for last minute booking discounts as well. The salon space is small but very well laid out. The staff always greet you promptly when entering and offer you a beverage of choice straight away. They make a great latte to boot. The styling chairs are comfortable as are the hair washing stations. While you don't get a massage at the washing station, you do always get a nice scalp massage and a perfectly coiffed 'do. If you're near the Sutton Coldfield area and looking for a salon, I cannot recommend Sixth Sense enough.

This pleasant Chemist's store is incredibly popular with locals and offers all of the usual…read moreproducts you'd expect to see in your local Boots or Lloyds Pharmacy. The staff are clued-up and always willing to give help when prompted and there's a clean, friendly atmosphere inside, deriving from the store's spotless shelves, simple layout and quiet location. Unfortunately, things are a little cramped inside due to excessive stock and narrow aisles. On busier days, I can never seem to shake off the fear of knocking things over whilst attempting to manoeuvre around customers. I'd definitely recommend Mitchell W. Phillips', but try to avoid school coming-out time, as that's usually when things are at their busiest.
