Confession: my hair has never been styled by these guys. However, an ex-​boyfriend got his hair cut there a few times, and since I was the one that had to look at him, I therefore feel qualified to comment!
They made him look good.
Having sat patiently in the waiting area while he was beautified, I can honestly say it’s a really nice salon. I’m not a big fan of the décor, but the staff were really chatty and friendly, and the price wasn’t too bad.
I’m perfectly happy with my stylist in Michael Quinn, but should that ever change, I wouldn’t think twice about giving this place a go.

I don’t ever «betray» my usual stylist, but he recommended I go here to get natural glue in hair extensions in preparation for my wedding hair (I wanted lots of volume and my normal hair is thinner than Kate Moss on a diet). So, at his suggestion, I called these guys and booked in to get myself a new head of hair.
Can we leave all controversial debates about whether hair extensions are morally correct aside for the moment and concentrate on the service? They were excellent. They looked after me from start to finish, gave me advice on how to look after the extensions, and kept me occupied with copious cups of tea and magazines while they worked tirelessly on my tresses. The result was a fabulous mane of hair, double the thickness of my previous sad mop — and it lasted for 6 months.
It wasn’t cheap at all, actually very expensive indeed, but when you consider the man-​hours and the cost of ordering and dying the hair to match mine, it wasn’t a surprise. I went into it with my eyes wide open, knowing it would hurt my wallet. I would more than recommend this place if anyone is thinking of having extensions put in and are prepared to pay for good quality service and product. If they can make me look good, they can do it for anyone!
