The hairdresser was lovely, the salon really nice, the coffee really good (and free) and the haircut is still getting compliments two months after it was done. I paid £55 for my cut and blow dry but it was totally worth it. Oh - tips can't go on your credit card bill so they need to be paid in cash. FYI.

Now then, I've said I'm a fan of this place, however my purse is not. As a birthday treat, my mum…read morebooked me in to this stylish hairdressers to get a bit of an overhaul. She was expecting to pay around £50-£60 for me to get my colour done. The final price was actually £108, and that was with a 25% reduction! (I later found out that the reduction was just on the cost of the hair dye as opposed to the whole shebang). Let me tell you what was good about the place though. Firstly, I met with one of the stylists, Bev, who discussed exactly what she was going to do to my poor ravaged hair. Then, as it was quiet, I had two hairdressers working on my head whilst listening to the Cheryl Cole album and attempting to join in their discussion on how if Cheryl can't keep a man, no one can. Then a couple of Vogue's were handed to me and I was left under a space-age looking heater while the dye did it's thang. Now comes my favourite part. I went over to the sink to get my hair washed. Wait, it gets better. I sat down in a comfy leather armchair and tipped my head back into the sink. Then the girl said "just watch your feet" - 'why am I watching my feet?' I thought. Well, next thing the chair started to recline and I'm pretty sure it heated up too. And then it started to massage me. Now, I'm a typical girl - I like people messing with my hair anyway; but when you're on a reclined, heated, massaging armchair getting your head massaged and lathered the £108 almost seems worth it!! After that it was back to business and I soon forgot the chair as my hair was primped and tousled and various people tried to explain what products were being thrown onto my head. All in all, it was very professional, if not a little try-hard. After all, surely the best bit about going to a hairdressers (other than getting your hair done) is having a good gossip? And even though it was only my first time there, surely I could still have participated in a bit of friendly banter? However, it was evidently not a social visit, and I was soon blow-dried to within an inch of my life and standing in front of the reception desk looking dazed and confused and trying to pretend that paying over £100 for a hairdo was normal. I was informed that if I came on Tuesdays it's 25% off colour, even though it says Mondays on the pack I was given, and also handed a pack of sweets with their name on as I was a first time customer. I was offered a range of haircare products but managed to fob them off with an "oh no I've just done a big shop!" line. I was also given my hair plan of what was done to my hair and was used on my hair so I could repeat it next time I came back.... I think I managed a weak smile at this point and just wanted to sit down with a strong drink. They evidently take hair very seriously. As a nice finishing touch, they asked me where I was parked (I couldn't admit that I'd come on public transport) and offered me an umbrella in case it started raining - as I didn't want to ruin my new hair. Stupidly I declined the umbrella, even though looking at the expensive furnishings and Bang&Olufsen phone, the umbrella was likely to be worth a third of the cost of the haircut and I could've sold it!!

Bobbers is a lovely place, the staff are excellent considering my stereotype of hairdressers (which…read moreI'm sure I've previously mentioned). I went along for a colour and cut with Stacey. She was really friendly and reassuring as I was a bit concerned about the new style. She talked me through every stage, explained what she was doing - unlike in some salons where all you see is huge clumps of hair falling onto the floor whilst the hairdresser is shouting to her friend on the other side of the salon, not even looking at the back of your head. The massage chair alone is worth the visit - but maybe not the price. I agree with the review below... very expensive.

It's like a movie set or maybe like you'd imagine Elton John's toilet to look like! It's got a crazy yet elegant interior with lots of gold and leopard print designs, as well as lots of thrones for clients to sit on while they read the latest issue of Hello magazine and wait for their foils to finally dry! They have a range of services on offer including haircuts, perms, colours, highlights, trims and various skincare and tanning advice and products. Their prices are quite middle of the road in terms of salons and stylists in the area. Although I've never had my haircut here, the customers and staff are always laughing and joking as you walk past and it seems to have a really friendly vibe to the place!

Wow. Well, Posh by name, leopard print chairs and ornate decor by nature it seems!…read more Quite possibly one of the most tongue-in-cheek salons I've ever encountered in my life, Posh is like the heaven Bet Lynch or Liz McDonald (what is it about Coronation Street characters and... unusual fashion sense) would wake up to had they died and been forgiven of all their sins. It's simply paradise for anyone remotely enamoured with the 1980s, or leopard print, or big sparkly chandeliers, or anything kitschy cool. Yes, the stylists are very good, and the prices are reasonable, nails, tanning, yada-yada, and there we go, that's the review essentials over with. You're coming for the experience, the banter, and the sheer incredible sight of all the gold and sparkles and animal print and madness. Seriously, just peeking in is a spectacle in itself. Amazing stuff, really unique and they haven't half tried to make it that little bit different to your average salon.

The first time I went the girl didn't do much to my hair and forced lots of products in my face for me to buy. A few months later I thought I'd give them another go! Oh no! My appointment was at 6, they assumed I was getting a blow dry only I had to tell the girl I was meant to be getting it cut halfway through the wash She then cut more off than we agreed to and the layers she put in look awful and unpolished! She then went on further to give me a fringe way shorter than agreed and it looks horrendous. It was a rushed appointment and not worth the money! I will not be going back here. She ruined my lovely locks! :( It gets two stars for the beautician! The hairdressers however gets a 0!

Aura Hair salon is a small salon on Aigburth Road, close to Lark Lane. It is a classy looking salon…read morewhich is clean, tidy and well decorated. The staff are very friendly, greeting you warmly when you enter. They have a range of options available for a hair cut to match your budget. The Senior Stylists are the most expensive as the Junior Stylists are the cheapest. The shampoos and conditioners used and on sale in Aura are the expensive Tigi range. They smell delicious and make your hair feeling amazing. I've bought products from here when there has been a special offer for a shampoo and conditioner set and loved them. The stylists are very professional and really take the time to ensure you, and they, know exactly what you want. The trainees wash you hair in preparation for the cut and give you a lovely head massage when they apply the conditioner. The stylist then takes over to begin your cut. Again they take their time making sure they give you an excellent cut, blow drying it exactly how you want it. They also give you tips on styling your hair when you've washed it, and different ways you can wear your new style. They ask if you want any products and if you say yes they will recommend the best products for your hair, but if you decline they do not pressure you into buying anything. An excellent professional salon.

I was a regular at this salon until my most recent visit. Whilst getting my hair cut, the stylist…read moreknocked my glasses off her station and then stepped on them breaking them beyond repair. She was apologetic, but still, my glasses that are integral for me to see were broken. I couldn't see the end result of my haircut and was still charged the full price for it. (I needed assistance home/to cross the road because I could not see.) No manager was at the salon so called I the next business day to speak with one, but the person I spoke with was very suspicious and only after a lot of pressing was given the name of the manager. I also had to post to Facebook to try and get more information. I called again when I was instructed to, but again no manager was in. Finally after leaving my name and number did a manager finally call me back. And she was neither friendly nor willing to resolve my issue... I was not only blamed for my glasses being broken, but accused of knocking them off myself and causing their breakage. I challenged the manager; when one gets their haircut they tend not to move, but the manager was still defensive and blamed it on me. Finally it was agreed she would talk to her stylist and call me back to "verify" my story, but after two weeks I have not heard anything. It is shocking and I can't imagine what would happen or how a customer would be treated if an actual hair styling mistake was made. Customers beware.
