Savannah

Lisa cuts my hair at Savannah, and she does a fantastic job! She has beautiful curly hair, and since I have ringlets myself, I wanted her to be the one to have a go at cutting it. She gave me a consultation before I even booked an appointment to make sure that I was on board with her vision for the cut, which really reassured me. It can be scary to have a new stylist, but I felt like she really «got» my hair.
She’s done it twice now and both times the results are fab. The color is gorgeous, I get so many compliments on my almost-​platinum blonde locks! While the color sits in, you get a hand an arm massage which is lovely. The girls who do the massages and shampoo you are super friendly and always fun to chat with. People are always offering to bring you tea, coffee, and water. I stupidly brought my own tea last time, but I was immediately jealous of everybody else’s lovely beverages. Will have to take advantage of that next time! Lisa cuts with skill and always lets me know what exactly she’s going to do, and makes sure that I agree before proceeding. No surprises! And she takes a keen interest in her work — she always asks me to stop in sometime after the cut (she straightens it at the salon, but I normally wear it curly) so she can see the curls for herself and get a sense of how it looks!
She has recommended products for me which I’ve just bought, as indeed my hair is as dry as she says it is. I know people don’t like how they try to get you to buy products at salons, but her hair is so similar to mine — yet healthy and shiny instead of dry and frizzy — that I can’t help but trust her! If she uses these products, clearly they work!
Savannah isn’t cheap, but I think you get what you pay for. I think with a cut and half-​head of foils I usually pay around £100. I know it sounds a lot, but honestly in America I pay more than that, especially with the high tipping expectations there. Some people don’t mind a cheap haircut, but if you’re very particular like me, I think you’ll find Savannah worth your while. The relaxing atmosphere and gracious staff always make me feel welcome and really add to the experience.

I used to love going there but now some changes must have happened and the service is suffering badly. Apart from being understaffed the main downfall now seems to be the useless color technicians. This happened now twice after being booked in accidentally with a technician after asking for an appointment with a senior. Just some examples: using the wrong color, patchy and even leaving the color in till my hair disintegrated. They even tried to charge me for it.
