Oh my goodness my hair was shoulder length and very dull for 2 years since I started growing. People kept saying to grow out my hair as the pixy style wasn't for my age (I am 39) I wasn't happy self and wasn't myself for over a year as my hairdresser said I should keep it long as it looked better.My hair had no life no style it's just didn't suited me. This morning I walked pass tusk( I had my haircut here in 2008 and I loved it) I was seen and looked after by Peter he listened to my opinions and I showed the photos of my pixy hair style and said just do what you think it would suit me. And he did he cut it short but I can't explain how wonderful and cool my hair looks now . Within that hour I was back feeling my old /young happy self. And I can't thank him enough. Peter was lovely attentive, professional and friendly. And before I left I had booked my following appointment. I couldnt be more happier read more

I've found the one and her name is Casey. No, sadly, not romantically have I found 'The One' but in terms of hairstylist, I'm done searching. Casey at The Tusk is my new girl. I had a random hair to get my shoulder length locks cut off into a graduated bob (as I do every year or so) yet everytime I go someplace, they just cut it all of, apparently not understanding how to leave the front long and that IT WILL look good with curly hair. Casey listened to what I wanted and clearly knew how to cut curly hair. The end result was exactly how my hairstylist in Phoenix used to cut it and I'm super pleased. Everyone in Tusk was super friendly and joked around with me without being overly gossipy. It has an edgy feel without being TOO Camden High Street, if you know what I mean. The prices were about average for London, if not slightly on the lower end--I paid £36, which in Camden is what I expected to pay. Fortunately, I got what I wanted and what I paid for, so I shall be making this place my go to for hair time. read more

I relocated to London 3 days ago from sunny and warm Barcelona. Yesterday on a Sunday I decided to spend some time meandering through the wild and wacky world of Camden Town. I also was in desperate need of a haircut. My long brown tresses, albeit irresistibly sexy and alluring for all the hot -blooded species of the opposite sex that appreciate that style in the female gender, were becoming a tangling unruly mess for me to maintain well groomed. I searched Yelp and found Tusk. Great service. I walked in and the place was practically empty, not to say this is a reflection of their business, but rather likely a result of it being a sunny, sunny Sunday mid-day in dreary gray London. The staff greeted me with kindness, from the color specialist seated at the front, to the buxom receptionist who took my coat and hat. As an aside, I can only assume that the hair stylist seated at the front was the color specialist as she herself sported a fantastic due of lavender blue, a color so unique on hair that it must take an expert with the dye bottle to understand how to manipulate the rainbow to such a hue. My stylist was was a spritely girl in her twenties hailing from Ireland, with likewise a prismatic of hair color, a sweet shade of strawberry blonde. Her hair, slightly touching to the tops of her breasts, was styled with soft tendrils cascading and framing her face and it inspired to want the same. It looked so healthy! She was attentive, asked the pertinent questions about my desired cut and style and worked nimbly and quickly to the achieved results. She happily blew my hair out as well and was able to reproduce the same wavy effect that she sported. Needless to say, for what could be a really boring experience, I found the visit pleasant and would encourage anybody looking for a good chop, a bit of a trim or even a total transformation in color to patron Tusk. Oh yea and the green tea I was offered with my service was great too. read more

After an expensive, mediocre cut at another salon (http://www.yelp.com/biz/hob-salons-london-2), I was walking by and saw an ad for hair models. I set up an appointment, put a £10 deposit with the promise of getting £5 back after my cut. So, a hair cut for £5?! HELL YESSS! The stylist in training was Daniela, a very sweet chic rocking a shaved head. I initially was only going to cut off 1" but I realized the bad bleach job by the other salon left my hair looking like crap, so I had her cut 5-6"! She had great shampoo technique and did most of the cut but the finessing was done by the lead stylist, John while she watched. And holy shit, it is the best cut I've had in a while! I'm thrilled! Just because the stylists are edgy doesn't mean that you have to get the same look. My style is classic while the lady who sat next to me had a conservative style and got a terrific root touch up as well. Hair models are needed on Mondays. The cuts do take time, my took 2 hours but if you have the time, it is very worth it. I do agree that the cleanliness could be better, there is some hair on the floor, I also saw it around the loo. But it is not bad enough to make you not want to come in. I guess after a series of expensive and basic cuts, I'm willing to overlook some details in exchange for low cost, quality, amazing cuts! read more

I asked for chunky grey/silver highlights & ended up with nearly a whole head in platinum blonde. It doesn't necessarily look bad, but is very much not what I asked for. Hob Salon has always done well for me, but they were booked when I was available so I was trying something different. I won't be back. read more

On the hunt for a new hairdresser, after my move to London. It will take a while, because this shop will not be the one. The location is great, but its not very clean. I sat down and was very reluctant to put my bag on the floor, as it was covered in hair. I get it... its a hairdressers, but they can clean up after the clients. Secondly I was given dressing gown that also was covered in somebody else's hair. Very disgusting. The actual haircut was well done and quite nice (always too short), but the level of cleaning is a big concern. read more

I couldn't be more happy and satisfied with my hair, they're beautiful, healthy and shiny. Daniela did something magical: she achieved the PERFECT grey. She was so nice, professional, meticulous and accommodating. As soon as I walked in the hair salon I was offered a cup of tea, everyone was so nice to me. I received the best head massage ever by Korina. 10/10 totally recommended read more

Tusk - Hair Salons Near Me - London, XGL

Tusks is a hairdressers with a difference, located on Camden High Street, the nearest tube station is Mornington Crescent. The one thing you will notice about the staff here is they are all so individual and funky looking with their own amazingly fabulous hairstyle. It can be hard to get an appointment here sometimes as it's a very popular unisex hairdressers so I would recommend booking in advance. Anytime I have come here for a trim or hairstyle change I have been really happy as the hairdressers here really listen to you which results in red hot hair. read more

I came into Tusk with a crisis: I had gotten hair extensions put in at a salon outside of London and after a month they were a complete mess! I had so many matted knots that it was impossible to run my fingers through my hair. The whole ordeal was traumatic and so I went on a search for professionals who could repair the problem. The hairstylists at Tusk are incredibly experienced and after just two hours all the extensions were removed with relatively little pain. I left the salon with a gorgeous haircut that I am immensely satisfied with and my confidence has been restored. 5 stars for the atmosphere inside and 5 stars for the quality of the service! read more

Tusk is an excellent hair salon based in Camden. The staff are friendly and actually listen to what you want! It is not a 'one style fits all' place - they really do take into account your hair texture, your facial features and your preferences. I've been going there for years (and used many of the stylists there) and I've never been disappointed. read more

I am so happy with my new cut! I've been to Tusk twice now and both times were all I could ask for in a hair salon. The stylists all have their own unique and flattering looks, which is always encouraging, but they're super sweet and down to earth and made this less-than-adventurous reviewer totally comfortable, too. This most recent visit was a bit spur of the moment--I walked in on a Thursday afternoon hoping they'd have time for me--and they took me in, no problem. Price is also pretty darn reasonable! read more

Love this place, been going here for a year now and always leave very happy and feeling fab!! Staff is very friendly and very good at what they do.. Sean is my favoritt! Even brought my sister here last time she was viseting and she loved it. read more

Avoid! although nice people, know nothing about hairdressing, use old techniques, need to maybe go on some courses? spent hundreds of pounds here trying to get a look which they told me in the end was not achievable, they got fed up with me always complaining why it didnt look like the picture and i got fed up with their excuses and my empty purse, they should have refunded me money for sure but didnt. finally went somewhere else paid 100 quid and they got it right first time.... GO FIGURE?! read more

Daniela took good care of me, a walk in from Canada, very happy with my cut. Always stressful to go to a new stylist but I just couldnt go any longer on that trip. She was didnt take too much off and was very lovely. And for the record, my hair is just regular blond shag, nothing fancy like some of the pix I've seen on their site, so they are good at all sorts of styles. read more

Like many people, i have a lack of trust in previous hairdressers I've gone to. However, this place was great! Chris did an amazing job at my hair. Highly recommend!!! read more

I visited Tusk in July with a friend and got everything I wanted. Carol is friendly and talkative so you won't be bored with her. My hair is still gorgeous and that was three months ago. If I was in London I'd go back to redo my hair here. read more

Would definitely recommend this hairdressers. I had quite a lot of my hair chopped off a few months ago and was really pleased with the result. I feel terrible because I keep forgetting the name of the girl who cut my hair but she is a trainee and lovely! She really listened to what I wanted and was keen to make sure she created a look that would work for me at home, and not just look nice for the day. I went back about a week ago to get my fringe trimmed which they very kindly did for free. When I've had my fringe cut at hairdressers previously they've rushed me in and out but at Tusk, the girl really took her time to make it look good. I've never had a regular hairdresser before but I'm so satisfied with my experience at Tusk I'll have to return! read more

I had the hair long and wanted to cut just the tips. I have been in three different hairdressers, one after another to try to repair what the one before had done to my hair and it was always worst. Finally I went to Tusk and I passed through the hands of Peter. I was really terrified, because there wasn't too much to do, my hair was horrible and short. He understood very well what I wanted and now at least, even with the hair short, I am very happy. He will be my only hairdresser from then. Thank you Peter read more

Have been going for about a year now, I book with Peter who is really funny and cool but always professional and gives great cuts. The boss & all the other staff are really nice. Yes they can do any colour of the rainbow and use high quality products including Aveda, Fudge and Bumble & Bumble. Can't fault TUSK. No recent reviews which surprises me as TUSK is always busy when I'm there. They opened in a different location in 1984 and are independent, hence the reason I wanted to check them out in the first place. read more

When I am in London i always go to see Carole at Tusk as she is an amazing hairdresser. I cant speak for ladies haircuts as I am a man (although everyone there always seem to walk away more than happy). She has never ever let me down. Even David Beckham himself would use her regularly if he only ever tried her once. 6 stars to Tusk if it was possible - no one comes close to her in Camden. Don read more

My initial reaction when I first walked in was to run away because the staff each have their own individualistic style with an edge of punk. Not that I'm against being individual or punk, I was just worried that I might end up with pink spiky hair. However, my first impressions were squashed. The staff are brilliant, lovely and talented and there are lots of them. I have had many haircuts with them and the results have always been to my liking. The bonus is that they take on a lot of trainees and offer haircuts for a fiver. Sure, it takes a little longer but considering the price of haircuts these days, it's worth it. Don't worry though, as the senior staff always offer their guidance and a beady eye on the trainee cutting your hair. Quite often, if you are lucky enough to have someone who's never cut hair before, they will just watch and you get a haircut by a senior member of staff teaching them for a ridiculously low price. Brilliant. read more

3rd time I had my hair done at a non Asian hair salon in London and my first time at tusk. Having tried rush and tony&guy, I have almost given up hope of using non-Asian hair dressers because most of them just don't know how to cut Asian hair (rush staffs were also quite rude). But Peter at tusk was fantastic! Very good service and nice staffs. Def go back there again. read more
