The salon itself isn't anything special, and if it wasn't for the quality and skill of the hairdresser I use (who I believe is also the salon manager) then I probably wouldn't bother as it doesn't have any other appeal. In its defence, it was refurbished fairly recently and is a very nice place but then so are most of the salons in the town - good, but the haircut is more important to me, and that's where they score 5 stars. Although they mainly do ladies hair, I've seen the occasional gent or child there, and they have a full complement of services available. It's nice to feel confident in the abilities of your hairdresser, and trust them to actually do what you wanted with your hair without any nasty shocks. Fiona is well spoken about in the local area, and I'm sure I'm not the only person locally who uses this salon because of her scissor skills!

I am delighted with my new style. One of the main reasons I picked this place is because they have a website with the prices outlined and some shots of previous work. They don't take card so it meant I knew how much I needed to bring with me before I left the house. They're a small salon but you're not on display for all the word to see so the place feels intimate and friendly. Ohh and also they do just the best coffee. I really do recommend them to anyone who's in Galashiels and nearby.

You get a good shot of vodka before she starts with the scissors... :) Which was perfect as I went from long to short so I needed it haha! I have very unruly super curly hair and always wanted it long but it never grew passed my shoulders. So I gave her freedom to do whatever. She made is short and so easy to maintain!!! I am going back tomorrow now three months later :) Also she does not tell me what I have to do, but works around how I treat my hair which is great. She said 'I cant train your hands', which makes sense as I am used to moving through my hair in a certain way for ages now. Having curly hair, I've been traumatised many many times since being a little girl coming from hair dressers. I have to say, this is one of the best experiences I ever had! So happy I found it!

I received a voucher for Byron Hairdressing a couple of years ago and despite living through in…read moreEdinburgh, I always do my best to pop back in for a cut whenever I'm back through in Kirkcaldy visiting family. What really sets Byron apart from other salons I've tried is the attention to detail. It's clear that Ronnie the manager has incredibly high standards and it feels as though there's a real collective effort from all the staff (senior stylists to trainees) to exceed those standards. The service is second to none, the salon is impeccably clean, and while it's certainly pricier than other salons, the whole experience really makes you feel like you're getting value for money. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Byron - just make sure you book in advance as it fills up quick!

I've got 99 problems but my hair ain't one of them!…read more Like most ladies, I am slightly obsessed with having good hair. Now what good hair is, will be a subjective point of view, but for me it is manageable and generally shiny and healthy looking as a result of a great cut. I first reviewed Angel Hairdressing about 3 months ago on my first visit. It's a local salon and after standing by it waiting for the bus for 2 years, I decided to give it a go when my budget couldn't stretch to a posh town salon do. So now, it is review No.200 and it had to be a 5 * review. Even though I my last hair cut was 3 months ago - I hadn't actually reached hair crisis point. My style had held perfectly even when growing and it was only as it really started to thicken up again (and growing very quickly) that I decided to cut it back again. It is probably the first hair cut that I've had where I've left a salon, the do has lasted a good few days before I had to wash and dry myself and it has been something I have been able to recreate myself, abet in Claire form, and not hairdresser form. Again - same fab cut. It is a small salon with one sink and 4 chairs. There are two stylists - Lisa who I think is the owner and Kerry who cuts my hair and who I think is fab. Same wet and dry cut as before - still in about 50 minutes even though my shape from last time had still held well, so again, great attention to detail to ensure my hair is perfect. Fab friendly and cheery service and great prices - still £28 for a cut and blow dry and I think it is under £15 for a wash and blow dry. It is not a tea/coffee and a biccy type place but to be honest, I never got the chance to have that any time before as when the cutting starts, that lean forward to get the cuppa could result in hair catastrophe and I'm not stupid enough to risk that. Busy weekend ahead with work and catching up with friends and I'm enjoying my glossy, well cut hair. So Angel Hairdressing, I'm sharing the Yelpy love and making sure my 200th review is a good one :-)

I've now been to Angel Hairdressing two times, and both of those I was pleased as punch by the…read moreresults! For one, it's absurdly close to my flat, which makes visits and appointments a breeze. Secondly of course would be the lovely staff. I've been served by the same hairdresser both my trips, and she remembered me the second go round, which makes for a pleasant welcome. Size-wise, It's a small joint, but more than enough room for the ladies to perform their miracles, and it feels reasonably homey inside. What seals the deal for me is the prices are totally reasonable--I've seen some places that make my eyes practically roll back in my head around town, and I've never been one to willingly shell out a week's paycheck for my hair. But Angel has fair prices to match the excellent service. My first go featured a simple cut, the second, a full coloring, and I'd give five stars to each venture. This is definitely my go-to salon! Extra perk: I was offered a cup of coffee or tea while waiting for my color to set. Don't mind if I do!

I have used this Salon a number of times as it's the closest to my house and I've had hugely mixed…read moreexperiences with it. Previously they could just not keep hold of stylists - everytime I went they had different ones meaning it was impossible to build any kind of relationship with a given stylist. This seems to have improved a little of late. My last visit to the Salon was approx 4 weeks ago. The stylist did an all but fantastic job - pretty much loved the cut. My BIG problem - and it's been one for quite some time is the truly horrendous attitude and total lack of customer service given by the receptionist/trainee. She all but grunts at you and this last time I had the hairwash from hell. It was agony - raking her fingers through my hair really hard, water that was plain cold, the level of the neckrest (ouch!). She never once asked if I was comfortable, was the water temperature okay etc. The 'head massage' part of the shampoo was torture. I asked her to change water temp, said my head was sore from the 'brutal' technique but all to no avail - she didn't take a blind notice to anything. On getting into the cutting chair again my head was subjected to a going over with the towel and brush that was really painful. To add insult to injury she didn't ask if I wanted anything to drink. Honestly - her attitude was appalling and the salon should be ashamed if they have failed to notice the continuing poor performance and utter lack of interest in the role. They really need to work on making the salon 'come together' - something is missing...... Would I recommend - hmm in all honesty I just don't think so - which is such a shame as it could be great given its location, captive market etc.
