I have been visiting power cuts for about 7 years, I have my hair Cut, Coloured and Highlighted, I use beauty as well to have my nails and eyebrows done. I had a baby 5 years ago and he has been having his hair cut at Power Cuts from the age of 5 months and I will never take him anywhere else. I have recommended this Salon to family and friends who still all use it on a regular basis, in fact my older 25 year old son travels miles on a moped to get to power cuts now he has left home. The staff are friendly, the Salon is clean and airy, there is free tea, coffee and biscuits. The place is always busy which is a sign of a good reputation. This salon has fantastic offers on for new and existing clients, regular vouchers for money off next appointments as a thank you for your custom. This local business also plays an active part in helping the local community. I know that we can all have an opinion but I think the bad review below is a bit harsh and as a regular customer I would also say untrue. Well done to the Managers and staff at both Power Cut Urmston and Irlam for continuing to provide a good quality service. Oh and thanks to Louise for doing a brilliant job of doing my Highlights and Cut on Saturday. . read more

I am shocked and saddend by the review about power cuts .I have been going there for years , visiting both salons many times winter and summer and i have always found them both to be clean , warm and bright .There are always lots of books ,posters and up todate magazines along with lots of offers and items for sale . I am always greeted with a smile ,tea or coffe and a biscuit . I found the staff to be very professional at all times but at the same time very friendly chatty , helpfull and kind I love the feeling of having sure a good hair wash and how good it feels after BUT most importantly i have always been more then happy with my hair and never had cause to complain , my cut and colour has always been prefect and i feel for sure that if at any time for any reason what so ever i would have needed to complain about any thing that it would have been put right at once with no fuss at all .( i am not easy to please and if needed to complain would do so at once ) they have always given me good advice on hair care and so on I have been told many times how nice my hair is and asked where i have had my highlights and cut done and i have and always will recommend power cuts to anyone be it young or old . read more

Working in Manchester short term I purchased a groupon voucher to use midweek straight from work saving Saturdays to spend with my family rather than going local to me.Bit apprehensive due to the price but hey, I was very impressed. Lovely highlights which the stylist even targeted to my patch of silver on my fringe (sorry to say that not caught name). I had been toying having highlights for a while as normally go for full head colour but advice was given and taken.The salon was steady during my 2 hrs there, lots of activity and a couple of people going upstairs for beauty treatments. Nice cuppa and a good price list compared to Wirral/heswall. Will I be back yes I will appointment booked. Regardless of travel time I will be back Thanks again Chrissy read more

Very disappointing customer service. My daughter had an emergency c-section so I needed to travel to London to care for her. I rang the day before my appointment to explain the situation, however, I was told that because it was not a full 24 hours before, I would lose the groupon voucher. When I then spoke to the manager she said she could only offer me an alternative appointment up to Saturday, after that I would again lose the full value of the voucher. I do understand they need rules but I would have thought given the emergency situation, they could have been more understanding. The value of groupon for businesses is that I might have become a regular customer, but given the lack of flexibility and compassion I would not choose this salon again. read more

My first visit was with a groupon in feb and I have never looked back! I have just been back to powercuts for the 3rd time and will be going again and again. I have naturaly curly hair and have had years of keeping the style and the way i wash/dry/wear my hair exactly the same. Chris cuts my hair and I can now wear it down without it going frizzy, i can leave it to dry naturally and its no longer a frizzy mess. The salon has a lovely atmosphere and its nice to be able to have a beauty treatment whilst a colour is on! I travel from atherton to urmston to go to powercuts which involves a motorway but well worth it everytime! read more

I have visited both Urmston and Irlam salon for many years and can honestly say I have faith & total trust in all the girls. I know I will never walk out with a style or treatment that isn't right for ME and MY lifestyle they treat each individual as just that & always make you feel an important valued customer even at very busy times. I am always made to feel welcome and there is never any atmosphere which can be very hard to find in hair & beauty salons. There are always incentives & offers on to reward customers. Great team @Powercuts can't beat them :0) read more

Had a great experience here on Tuesday. Having visited for the first time in November by recommendation I rebooked and was given a voucher to use during January. Regardless of the voucher I would have returned. They seem to have a steady flow of loyal customers and there was a range of ages there for the 2hrs I was there. Yet again really pleased with the result and experience - Christine (owner) recommended a reasonable priced shampoo/conditioner bundle and I've rebooked for 7 weeks time. Just what a girl needs in bleak winter months :) Thanks again read more

I have been to powercuts a number of times over the years and have always found the staff at the salon to be friendly and helpful, even if its offering a cup of coffee or advising me on what colour or hairstyle to have. The salon has a lot to offer with its modern decor and welcoming approach from the staff. The service that i have received from the salon have been great and i would highly recommend this salon to anyone looking for a good hairdressers in the urmston area. read more

I have been going to this salon since I used a groupon 2 years ago and I've never looked back. I have naturally curly dark hair which greys quickly. My hair has never been in such good condition. I travel from wigan to urmston every 4 weeks and I have the best colour and cut I have ever had hence a motorway journey each time! The staff are friendly and professional and the salon is spotlessly clean. I can't recommend highly enough! read more

My whole family have used this salon for a good few years, and would highly recommend them, the girls are always helpful, I tend to go just for a trim and an eyebrow wax but have been advised and reassured in the passed re my middle age hair line. The ladies in the family visit regularly for highlights and restyles and always leave very satisfied with the results, the staff are friendly and very welcoming, would highly recommend read more

Have been using both the Urmston & Irlam branches for years now, and I have to say that both are well run, friendly and professional in the service that is provided. Anybody wanting to go in for the first time should have no worries about being treated in a friendly manner as this is always the case. All staff are always helpful and accomodating and on this basis I would have no hesitation in recommending to others. read more

myself and 3 friends travelled over to manchester for the weekend, and we all had our hair done at this salon, not only were we all happy with what we had done, the staff were all very friendly and chatted to us whilst we were having our hair done, we were all offered tea or coffee on arrival, overall we were all very happy and the next time we are over we will definately be back! read more
