Best place in Brighton for curly Hair! I went here a couple of weeks ago to get a cut, and I've been getting compliments ever since. Amanda did a beautiful job on my hair, and had great advice on how to style and maintain curly hair, too.

Went here for the first time today for a wash and cut. Lovely ladies, very friendly. Listened to exactly what I wanted and delivered it. They're also good with the curly hair! Will more than likely be back next time I need my hair chopped!

Best Hairdressing experience I've ever had, hands down. Hair turned out exactly as I hoped (maybe even better!). Amanda really listened to what it is I wanted as well as offering her advice and expertise. Both cut and colour were bang on. Amanda, Lynsey and the apprentice are all such lovely people who take the time to get everything done to the best standard, and it shows. Such a gem and so glad it's my local!

Met Amanda today, very welcoming and she fitted me in for a very last minute fringe cut! She cut it so well that I'll be returning at the end of the month for a trim off the ends! The salon has a lovely atmosphere and I'd 100% recommend going here!
