A lively and modern hairdressing and manicure salon, packed full of talented hairdressers. Many of…read morethem have been there several years, clearly demonstrating the loyalty and friendly atmosphere there. It's well priced too, and they never try to force a style on you that doesn't suit.

I went out of my way (and away from my usual amazing salon) to support this new business... I even…read moretook a good luck card & gift. My hair was then destroyed by, a very pleasant, but unqualified Junior who i found out had not even completed the 2 year minimum training to be a hairdresser... i believe he has since left. He cut my hair 3 inches shorter on one side at the back & kept asking me to check his work as he was doing it, put a load of unsuitable greasy product in my hair (had to wash it as soon as i got home) & i had to ask him to stop when he burnt my scalp attempting a blow dry; if you can call holding the dryer in between his knees whilst rolling my hair over a brush by hand a blow dry... obviously hadnt been trained or skills tested. I received a feedback request which i answered honestly, constructively & a lot better than i should have. Instead of an apology or a refund I received a nasty personal message from the owner on Facebook... it then became apparent a little while later that the salon manager had started going round contacting people out of the blue in the town that i had known as a teenager 20 years back spreading malicious gossip & lies about me. I sent a cease & desist defamation of character notice to the salon directors... she responded by calling the Police out to my correspondance address. They apologised & confirmed i should go ahead with legal proceedings... i am also writing public reviews where possible to warn you all not to touch this amateur, overpriced salon who have no idea of customer service or how to run a business with a bargepole. You've been warned!

The first time I went to Dean he went all out to impress me. The second time was a bad experience…read more it reminded me of being at Marc Antoni because they overbook so you get less attention, and consequently I had to even up my own hair when I got home. They have hidden costs and you don't find out until you pay. I saw the way one member of staff was treating her customers badly, as she was definitely in a bad mood, and Dean ignored it. The receptionist needs reminding when products are on offer and a friend of mine didn't get the discount that was advertised, and was told it's too late after payment had been taken. Dean seems to know how good he is, but the service was poor and after my first visit attention to detail was not given. I'm not going to return as I have since found more honest, and customer-friendly hairdressers in Reading, who I actually pay more for and travel further to, but I'm much more confident in their service and haven't been disappointed once.

Pros Dave Alan is situated out of the way above some shops on the High Street in Bracknell. The…read moresalon looks quite old fashioned but the staff are friendly and seem to know what they are doing and the prices are very reasonable. Cons The staff aren't particularly friendly or willing to chat through requirements before starting a cut.

Get real - the "seedier" part of town! There are some empty shops around here, but that's all they…read moreare - empty, not "seedy"! Haven't used Dave Allen so can't comment on the end product, but I can tell you I think he is expensive. £14.50 for a mens haircut is over the top. Especially in Bracknell. Please drop your prices.
