    There comes a time in every brunette's life when she thinks to herself, "Golly, I wonder if blondes…read morereally DO have more fun?". Upon which ruinous thought she embarks on adventures perilous and sundry to turn her auburn tresses into a bleached, straw-like substance, and thus, have more fun. The worst bit is when said brunette thinks to herself, "I shall be a trooper and save the money by piling harmful amounts of bleach upon my head." The result is always, we learn, closer to the colours orange or neon yellow. Now, some ladies (read: many, many ladies who bleach their hair blonde) are fine to walk around with neon yellow, burnt gold hair. But those with a lick of sense and some desire to look more human than scarecrow, will eventually seek out a professional hairdresser. Enter Theo Georgio, stage right. Cue wailing and gnashing of former auburn-tressed maiden as she begs the kind sirs at Theo Georgio to please, please give her "human coloured hair". After literally three hours of testing, scientific deduction and sweat-inducing mathematical calculation, the fine chaps at TG declared a solution to the problem. It would take a further three hours and cost £120. Gulping back tears, I (in case you hadn't clued in, I was the fair maiden with burnt orange hair) acquiesced, shelled over said cash, and settled back with my cappucino to discuss life with my wonderful hairdresser, Anthony. Afterward, my hair looked AMAZING. It looked good enough to eat, soft, supple and blonde. Most importantly, it looked like human hair, not donkey's hair. Gone was the straw bale, and here was shiny radiance I thought Pantene manufactured with a spotlight. Theo Georgio continued to save my hair until, tired of the cost and the fact that blondes (at least this one) weren't turning out to have more fun, but merely to spend more time in the hairdressers, I gave up the idea and returned to my roots (pun fully intended). But this is the best hairdressing experience I've ever had outside of L.A. I felt like a million quid, and was treated exceptionally well, and my hair attended to as if it were rare beluga caviar. You know what I mean. I defy you to get a better hair treatment and better customer service at a hair salon than Theo Georgio.

    Theo georgio is a local hairdressers to me. I have been there twice and every time I have come back…read moredisappointed in what I have received. The first time I went to theo georgio was because my old hairdressers dye never used to stay in my hair which meant I had to keep returning and paying more and more money. I asked the hair dresser for a light brown colour on my hair verging on blonde. 2 hours later I had copper hair (that seemed ginger to me) and a 130 pound bill. The second time I visited theo georgio was for my step-mums wedding. I asked the lady styling my hair for long flowing curls that made my hair look long with small plats on either side of my hair and minimal product used. 20 minutes later I had big chunky curls coated in product with two big plats on either side of my head which were wonky. The third and last time I went to theo georgio was yesterday. The reason why I came back after all of that disappointment was that I had a 20 pound gift voucher from Christmas. I thought it would be cheaper to use the voucher. I had looked at the prices online and I was told for a toner would be 20 pound and a head of highlights would be 65 pound. Once again I asked the lady doing my hair to make it light brown/dark blonde and I showed her numerous photos of what I wanted. She then went to ask me if I wanted streaks in my hair or a full colour throughout to which I answered full colour throughout. 3 hours later and I ended up with streaky hair completely different to what I wanted. I got my 85 pound I was expecting to pay out and was astonished when I was told it was going to cost me 120 pound and I haven't even got what I wanted. According to the hairdresser my highlights were 65 pound, my toner was 30 (10 pound more than said on the website) and an additional 20 pound just to have my hair dried and straightened (which was rushed and poor) I wasn't warned that it would cost this much money by the hairdresser or the website. Every time I have been to the hairdressers I have felt rushed and unwelcome. I would not recommend it as you never get what you are asked for and if you explain you are disappointed they will not make any effort to help you.
