First time visiting Bang, booked it based on reviews and took whatever stylist was available. I have to say I'll definitely be going back, Marie did an excellent job and I'm really happy. I often come out of hair salons not quite satisfied - I'm not very picky I just think the stylist hasn't quite got my face shape. But, this time none of that! Will be a repeat customer and look forward to Marie cutting my hair again!!!

I also had a conditioning treatment that was very relaxing and has left my hair feeling soft. Thank you Kirsty for a lovely Christmas cut!

I visited bang about a month and a half ago and although I went away really unhappy with the result, I was really hesitant to leave a bad review and I wanted to try to live with it. Today I visited a different salon to mend the damage done to my hair, and realised quite how bad my experience at bang was. I wanted balayage with toners and a cut, and although the overall placement was nice, the toners added very little and my hair was left feeling like straw. My stylist only told me once I was in the chair that she was still training, which she didn't tell me at the time of booking. I wouldn't have
