People who regularly read my posts will know I have a weakness when it comes to beauty salons, this…read moreplace proves to be no exception. It is very light and clean studio, with the distinctive smell of nail polish remover you get in nail parlours. I opted for a pedicure and the girl doing it was very sweet and chatty. I opted for bright red varnish which was applied quickly but accurately and last for weeks. http://beautytruthsnotuglylies.blogspot.com/

Got a spray tan for this shop off Wahanda and went on 8th March for my appointment…read more Very chirpy staff who took my booking. Even though I was late (about 5/8 mins) due to traffic, they honoured my appointment, did a great job on my tan and were very friendly and professional. Spray tan was a very nice & even colour and lasted nearly 10 days! Would highly recommend.

Highly disorganised, very poor service…read more Booked an appointment, I turned up a few minutes early from the time booked. I was told by the lady I booked that she is with another client and is running slightly late, and will be with me within 15 minutes. I let her know that this is fine, but stressed that I must leave to pick up my daughter and it cannot be later than this, to which she said that this will be fine. 35 minutes after the booked time she still wasn't finished with the client. Another hairdresser offered to cut my hair, but it only left me with 10-15 mins before I had to leave. Had no choice but to walk out. I definitely would not recommend using this salon based on my experience with them.

A year or so ago I endured a terrible incident with my hair. I fancied myself a platinum blond, so…read moreI did what any creative, determined (idiotic, foolish and stupid) person would do and I decided to dye it myself. I trotted down to the pharmacy and bought two packets of peroxide hair dye. Don't even know what brand. The instructions allowed me 90 minutes of development time, so I stuck in on and settled down. After 45 minutes (I can almost hear the cringing) I was a tad concerned - it felt like *ages* and my head was getting rather warm, shall we say. So I put my head under the shower and began to wash it all off. Oh. My. God. If you've seen that scene from The Craft, the scene where the blond girl's hair begins to come out in her hands when she is in the shower - yep. That was me. It was the most horrendous experience, my hair when wet was like chewing gum - it stretched and then snapped, and when dry it just snapped. So. Bad day. My house mate tried to console me by getting me to put avacado in the mangled nest on my head and first thing that morning she booked me an appointment at the only hairdressers she could find open on a Sunday - Hana Lee. Despite the fact that I was in tears for the whole appointment, which lasted a good two and a half hours, Hana Lee did the most wonderful job. My hair went from being almost waist length to chin length, as there was just no way of saving it. She put two coats of natural hair dye on it, a dark blond shade, to hide the scalp white roots. She was friendly and kind and did her best to distract me, despite the fact I was distraught. Finally she gave me all the advice she could to save the hair that was there from falling out or getting any more damaged. I purchased some specialist oils and mousses that I had to use every day, I was only allowed to wet my hair once every two weeks to wash it and I couldn't use any straighteners, hairdryers or curling tongs lest they destroyed my hairs. Not only did Hana Lee save me completely from one of the worst accidents I'd ever had with my hair, but she made the fix job look stylish and natural. She was so lovely too. The only reason I can't offer 5 stars is that on returning to her salon another girl cut my hair, and didn't do nearly as good a job as she had done. And, sadly, as Hana Lee is the owner and manager I simply can't afford to have her cut my hair each time since her prices are the most expensive of all the staff. If you want a great, stylish cut and a decadent experience (and you've enough to treat yourself) go to Hana Lee, just make sure you ask for the lady herself!

Yet another Living Social Voucher brought me here and I'm very thankful that it did…read more My hairdresser was lovely, chatty enough without being tiring and gave great advice on what to do with my hair when I asked for colour tips. Most important I love my hair, which is a big change in style and the colour seems great so far - again a change from before. Attentive with drinks and they even have a massaging chair when they wash your hair, lol. The tip of the ice berg is once you go with a voucher they offer a reduced rate for EVERY return, only £50 for cut and colour.

Bought a Groupon for a full head of colour rang them in April to check this included bleach to…read morewhich the reply was yes but would cost me £15 extra which I had no issues with. I went into the shop a few days later as already bleached my hair at home to ask how long to wait before booking appointment again explaining what I wanted & the fact I had a Groupon had more telephone conversations & booked appointment all the time explaining what I wanted & how I would be paying yet they waited until I turned up waited half hour & sat in the chair to tell me they don't do bleach on your scalp on a Groupon. After not getting an apology for wasting time & bus fare I contacted Groupon who say I might not be entitled to a refund & have to wait 10 working days to find out. After some thought I wondered if they will use bleach on your scalp if you pay full price are they using a cheaper bleach because you are paying less & dare not put it on your scalp. DO NOT BUY GROUPONS FOR THIS SALON IF YOU HAVE ANY SENSE OR BELIEVE ANYTHING THEY TELL YOU
