To say I am not an easy customer when it comes to hairdressers may just be the understatement of the year. I find the whole process hugely stressful. So having decided to make a big change it was with some trepidation I visited FEEL. Even though it had been recommended to me by a friend I still had my reservations... would they listen nod and then do their own thing? or try to talk me out of having such a big change - so that I ended up with a sad compromise? But No!! Chris was bloody marvelous!!! I'd decided I would tell him about my anxiety and he could not have been more understanding, accommodating or friendly. He did a great cut and really put me at ease. So much so that the next day, when having played around with it at home and not being quite comfortable with the length on top, I actually felt comfortable calling up and popping back in for a tweak here and there... which again he could not have been more lovely or accommodating about. I have spent the rest of the day on cloud nine thanks to him, quietly smiling to myself every time I catch my reflection. I had reservations.. the friend who recommended the place to me has quite edgy hair and I have had experiences in the past where a salon has just put a slightly edgy cut on to my not so edgy shoulders, or just not understood who I was. Talking to Chris it was completely different.. I could tell he really cared about who I was and wanted to get the best cut for me that would make me really happy. I'll be honest when I booked this haircut I booked it as a bit of a treat and a one off and had every intention of returning to my local hairdressing academy for my next cut.. but as I was talking to Chris and he was working on my hair and saying things like "because this is the first time I've cut your hair... I'm still getting to know you and how your hair behaves" I really started to understand (probably for the first time) the value of an ongoing relationship with your hairdresser. I think so often in the past I have been left disappointed that I had almost come to the conclusion that it didn't matter who cut my hair - I wasn't going to enjoy it and it was always going to be not quite what I wanted. So.. I think my one off treat may just become something of a habit.. and that feels really nice.. knowing that when I do want to have it cut again I know where I can go, who will cut it and that they will really care about the outcome. Thank you so much Chris - you really have made my day/week/month

Eryk did a really great job, and I’m very satisfied with the way my hair looks now. :)
