When I booked the appointment online I didn't realise I was booking a graduate stylist. The initial page said prices from £97 so thought when I selected any stylist that it was going to be a more experienced stylist for £97. It was only when I arrived for my appointment that I realised my stylist was a graduate and paid for the graduate stylist but would have preferred to pay more for the experience. My stylist was very lovely but don't think she had the experience I was hoping for to provide advice on the best cut for my hair. My stylist only cut my hair whilst dry and then trimmed a few pieces once it was dried but I observed more experience stylists cutting hair whilst dry and then checking through the cut when it was wet to check it was even. I appreciate I booked a curly cut and so the idea is to cut it dry to see the shape etc but I think it could have done with further shaping and graduating whilst wet. To be honest, I'm not very happy with my cut. I agreed to have layers put in but the layers are very short and blunt and stick out and not sure if its longer on 1 side than the other once styled. Since having my hair cut and styled on friday, I've washed my hair twice (today is sunday) to see if I can style my hair but it was easier to style before. My layers are too short and chunky and so I'm contemplating booking an appointment in another salon to just get a normal cut as don't think the curly cut was for me as my hair is more wavy than curly. ITs a shame as I've been looking forward to my appointment in preparation for a holiday

I had followed the ‘brand’ on Instagram for a good few months and was really impressed with the content and transformations of clients that have travelled from near and far. As special birthday treat I booked an appointment. My expectations were high, especially considering the cost of the service, so expensive! I already have a good curly pattern but I not had a ‘curly cut’ before, so was really looking forward to it as I thought it might enhance my curls. I booked a full set of highlights, root tint, curly cut and finish. I have grey/white roots which I always get tinted, it’s important to me. I had a good inch worth of root showing. Ali ‘creative director’ was my stylist, we briefly discussed cut and colour of the highlights, well when say discussed it was more that she had already decided what I should have. I asked about the root colour but she advised against tinting them. I disagreed but she insisted that it would ’blend’ much better. So I had a dilemma, do I get up and walk out and still be charged anyway or go through with the appointment? I stayed. After the highlights had processed Ali passed me over to Thomasina, a junior to wash my hair. Thomasina was lovely she also dried and finished my hair, I did not pay junior rates though but Ali was clearly busy with another few clients. Hair dried I was sat up in front of the mirror and I really was very underwhelmed with how the front of my hair looked and you could clearly still see my roots. Ali came over to show me the back of my hair, I said it was ok but really nothing special, the colours were pretty. I told Ali how very disappointed I was that my roots were still visible, she said she how you get on?? I’m really not sure what she meant as I already knew how disappointed and upset I felt and there is no way I would go back. I have never come out of a salon with the same roots showing that I went in with. What a total waste of a lot of money. Sadly it seems it’s all about the brand. One to avoid.

A little disappointed with the service given the cost of an appointment. I was hoping to discuss how to make the best of my hair but this didn’t really happen. I have a real mix of wavy, curly, and straight hair. My stylist didn’t seem to have any advice or recommendations and my hair has been cut in a way that feels difficult to maintain. Such a shame because I was so excited to finally get some guidance on what my hair wants to do and how to work with it.
