I thought 35 for a blow dry for shoulder length hair was very expensive and I am used to London prices.

Had a wonderful cut today by India - Thankyou so much! She really listened to what I wanted and gave me fab advice :) my hair hadn’t been touched in a year and now it’s the healthiest it’s ever looked. The… current hygiene practices in places are so sensible and didn’t affect my experience negatively at all :) Thankyou so much India!
