Horsforth

Uh-oh. I'd done my usual hair thing and left it far to late to try and get an appointment somewhere…read moreto get my tresses chopped and re-blonded! It was Monday and with a day off work the next day, I was trawling Yelp! for inspiration for somewhere new to try, and I also put a call out across various social networks asking my chums for recommendations. A couple of people recommended Auriole to me, but I faced the same problem that I was facing with everyone else: most hairdressers appear to be closed on Mondays, so I wasn't having any luck ringing round trying to see if there were any appointments free. As luck would have it, I tried Auriole's Facebook page and noticed that a new post had just been added by a member of staff so thought I'd try my luck and message her. She messaged me back and - ta daaa! - I had an appointment booked for the following morning! Auriole is a small but stylish salon in the middle of Town St. It's not one of those intimidatingly swanky places that makes you feel insecure, but it's really pretty and has a lovely welcoming atmosphere. The staff are all really friendly and you could tell by the chatter in the salon they have a lot of 'regulars' which is always a sign of a great local hairdressers. Horsforth seems to be packed to the rafters with salons too, so it's clearly testament to the place. I got a warm & friendly greeting when I arrived and discussed the colour & cut I wanted with my stylist Vicky. As she did my hair the level of chat was just right: I'm not one for regaling life stories while I'm having my hair done, but a bit of friendly chatter is nice. As for the resulting 'do, I'm very pleased with the colour, and pretty happy with the cut (I'm always really unsure about new haircuts in the first few days - no fault of the hairdressers, just my own nervousness!) So why not 5 stars? Hmm I'm probably being a bit harsh here, but there were a few little niggly things that hold me back from awarding the elusive fifth star, not all of which were the salon's fault, but still affected my overall experience. I'd said when I booked that I needed to be done by 12.30 as I had to pick my kids up from school for a trip at 1pm, and I didn't leave until 12.45, which meant I had to literally run the length of Horsforth to make it on time. Obviously the hair cut & colour took as long as it took, and it's not like she could have just stopped before it was finished! Also, a rep turned up to discuss ordering products for the salon with the manager, but she was in the middle of cutting someone's hair, however the rep continued to have her discussions with the manager while she was clearly busy, and I thought this was a bit rude of her (the rep, not the manager!) Finally (and I feel a bit of a wimp just typing this!), my stylist did scratch my neck a little bit with the point of her scissors when she was cutting my locks. In total, it cost £65 for a restyle and half-head of highlights (2 colours) with Vicky which is pretty reasonable. I'd recommend Auriole to my friends, and I'll definitely go back again.
