doesn't recommendsABSOLUTELY HEARTBROKEN, WOULD NEVER GO BACK! Had been going to this salon since a young age. I’m naturally brown and... would go to novo to bleach my hair blonde as I would never risk it myself (hence why I payed the prices on the promise that a professional will know what is best for my hair). When I initially started the journey of going blonde I wasn’t offered a strand test which I did find strange but again I wasn’t a hairdresser so I was not aware of the procedures and hadn’t been to any other salon in my life. My hair had been continuously bleached on the bottoms as a recommended refresh not to me realising that 30% of my hair had broken off and only left many 5cm strands. I only realised the true extent of the damage when I seeked outside professional advice where I was told about the HORRENDOUS condition that my hair was in. So bad that I could not even bleach my hair anymore. I wouldn’t mind if I could just bob my hair most of the damaged hair is so short that that wouldn’t help it. Summarising I am absolutely heartbroken... with your hair you trust someone and expecially when you spend the money you expect to have cared for hair let alone thin, broken hair.read more

She took the time and really made... me feel pampered and looked after, loved the coffee the chat, the massage ever and my hair was the best it ever looked, being stylist myself I’m super fussy but she really did an amazing blowdry would highly reccomend. Cannot wait to come back in may for another blowdry! Thanks again lilly �read more

doesn't recommendsVery lovely staff.. However paid extra for a hair ‘specialist’ who has supposedly been there 18 years, to give me a... balayage, and was given a full head of highlights instead, which left my hair disgusting and left me very upset.. Not forgetting it was an awkward expirence and I was barely spoken to throughout the time of my hair being coloured wrongly, wouldn’t recommend and wouldn’t go back, however I’ve got my refund and am now paying £105 for my hair to be fixed ELSEWHERE�read more
