Went from long, boring hair to complete makeover, Short & Sassy, knocked years off. Husband loved the look. John knew the restyle that could suit my hair and faceshape and the results were Amazing. I felt like I'd had a therapy session and the the results gave me my bounce back. More than just a haircut. I highly recommend these guys.

Amazing! Went in with a tired head of hair and came out looking fresher and younger. Ed advised on colour and it was spot on. Natural tones that really lifted my look and then John did an amazing cut. He really listened to what I said and also gave my tips on how to get the same look when I style it at home. Will def go back and have no hesitation to recommend. One happy lady x

Ruined my hair, dyed it WAY to dark at the front. Very embarrassed and have to try hide my hair. Shall never be coming again. I had come to get my hair fixed but i left with worse hair than what i came with. Made my hair look matte rather than shiny. Staff were nice but my experience was not overall great.

Wow! This is the first time I used this fantastic Hairdressers. It certainly won't be my last. Ed and John are an absolutely brilliant team, with Ed doing my colour and John doing my cut. Louis is fab and helpful too. Which all results in a really relaxed atmosphere, with a lot of laughs, so right up my street. The end result, needless to say is utterly amazing, both the cut and colour is wonderful and I literally bounced my way to the car! Highly, highly recommended.
