At £30 for half a head of highlights, this is my ‘go to’ place for hair colour, That’s a quarter of the price of other(wildly overpriced) London salons, and to my mind the quality is no different. The lady who did my highlights last told me that she used to work in Toni and Guy, but the reason Tomato was able to charge so much less is because they were flat out busy all day long. Apparently in more expensive salons, they have fewer clients so need to charge higher prices which I thought was interesting. They also keep your colours on record meaning you can have the same ones next time, or change them if you weren’t happy with them or want to try something different. The location, right opposite Putney train station, is super convenient and my appointments have always run to time. I’ve docked one star as the incense sticks aroma in the salon always leaves me feeling a little light headed and the grungey décor isn’t really to my taste either, but at these prices I will be coming back time and time again!

Love this place — I have paid a small fortune to get my hair coloured, highlights and cut. I am very grey so I have to keep it up and now I can afford it! I am shocked with the price after I have left and so grateful there is a great place that is reasonable.

Excellent hairdresser. Best highlights/colour(and I am usually very fussy). Friendly staff and very reasonable. Would definitely recommend this place!

Best value haircut in London… Granted it’s the only haircut I’ve had in London, but as a lady with rather long locks, I have had a few haircuts in my time. And at £25 for a wash, cut and blowdry, it is half the price of most the hairdressers in SW London. And they do a good cut. The air is thick with incense and accents, I had a fellow Australian do my wash, and a lovely Irish lady do my cut. She even complimented my at-home ombré dye job. I will be returning.

Simple and budget place. Good for your everyday no frills hair cut. Not recommended for special occasions though. Strangely enough many of my girlfriends are actually going there regularly.

Definitely give this place a miss, no stars from me from us. Paid only fifteen pounds for a cut, but would have only paid fifteen pence or less given the choice, i should have asked for compensation from them for what they did to my hair to be honest. We are in the hairdressiing trade so we know what is what and what isnt what, what they did to my hair was very very poor, wouldnt ever go back. Dont know how this place has stayed open-in business for so long, have been open-doing business for at least five or six years that i know of, hmm. In my opnion your much better off giong to Headmasters or Rush or Toni And Guy ect ect, you might have to pay a bit more, well twice as much as this place, but by enlarge you can trust them with your coiffure(barnet). Or better still, if you ever find a good hairdresser that will cut your hair well for a reasonable price stick to him,(or her), a far as we are concerned this establishment wasnt that.

Tomato is a very hit and miss hairdressers. That doesnt sound very appealing but when you are on a budget it is worth the risk! If you want an elaborate haircut then i wouldnt suggest this place, but for a simple cut its a bargain and worth the slight discomfort of noise. Don’t be fooled by places like Toni & Guy, Rush, etc They rip you off!

I don’t see what the fuss is about with the previous reviews and the one stars. I just rocked up to get a hair cut because it was across the street from where I’m staying temporarily. I asked if I could get a hair cut and the receptionist said no at first, but then told me she could fit me in about 45 minutes later. I went back, got an excellent haircut by a very nice young lady. There is definitely music playing, but I didn’t find it overbearing. If I had to say one negative, it was the incense burning, but that’s just me.

I went here on a whim and hoped they could fit me in without an appointment luckily for me they could. A ladies cut and finish is £25, that includes a wash. Its the set price for the haircut whoever cuts it [i like that] They are always busy on the weekends with the younger clients, very trendy. They dont do kids hair but I brought my toddler with me and they were cool with that even when we had to stop cutting for a toilet break. Claudio did my hair, he was very patient and his lovely tattooed bicep kept me mesmerized in the mirror while he did his thing
