Lovely relaxed and friendly atmosphere too.read moreElli Natasha Lee2018-11-09T22:45:16+0000Popped in today in hope that someone could sort out a bodge-job that another hairdresser had done on my fringe. I'm up in Edinburgh visiting so it was lovely to walk in and be made welcome when I had not booked an appointment. I explained what I was after and now my fringe is looking great once again! Thank you so much!read moreLisa Cribbes2018-11-07T17:57:21+0000they are very friendly staff very welcoming and Amy who did my hair was lovely and did an amazing jobDebbie Sheringham2018-10-31T13:38:32+0000I went in for a pre-gig '60s style bouffant, and wasn't disappointed ❤️ Tina knows her vintage styles, and being a vintage gal myself, I have high standards - and I wasn't disappointed. As well as the friendly service, the decor is to die for! I will be recommending this salon to all of my gal pals, and returning myself very soon 💋read moreJoanna Bogdal2018-08-20T22:02:08+0000Given all the positive reviews I must have been really unlucky last week. I am fairly new to the city and have been looking for a good hairdresser for quite a while and was pleased to see so many positive reviews here. I have never dyed my hair before so I have done my research and decided to try sombre to refresh my natural dark blonde hair colour. I emailed the salon, briefly explained what I wanted and came prepared with a couple of pictures to show. Sadly, I realised after a few minutes that the girl who was doing my hair was quite new and after working for just 6 weeks, may have not been experienced enough to do sombre. I got a bit worried when she mentioned "bleach" but again, I have never dyed my hair so was not sure if she needed to bleach my hair when doing sombre/highlights. After 2 hours I noticed that the contrast between my roots and highlights was too visible. The ends were really sort of scandi blonde whereas the roots were dark blonde. It did look absolutely awful, especially that there was no gradual melting of the colour. I spoke to, I believe, Tina who tried to convince me that the colour blended well but really, no offence, it looked a bit like one of the "before" pictures showing hilarious hair dye fails. The girl put some toner on but it didn't really help, the contrast was still there so I just asked to have my hair dyed so that it would match my natural colour. The girl tried her best to fix it and actually stayed for about 3-4 hours after their closed the salon, just to fix the colour and I am really grateful for that. Nobody noticed on Monday that I had my hair dyed which was a relief. Probably I would have even left her a huge tip for trying her best to fix it, but the fact that I was offered a "discount" for having my hair bleached and then fixed to make me look the way I entered the salon 6.5hrs earlier (never mind making me look remotely close to the pictures I showed) kind of put me off. I was more upset because of the fact that nobody supervised the girl when she clearly needed it. And I was unlucky enough to have my hair dyed that day. But again, given all the reviews posted here, I may have been just really unlucky. Either way, I will not go back and probably will think twice before I try to dye my hair again.read moreJill Coleman2018-07-29T08:44:17+0000Hey ladies thankyou you so so much for sorting out my hair yesterday .. really achieved the look I was aiming for and would have no hesitation recommending you .

Camille Zimmerman13:33 21 Apr 18Always come out of this salon feeling 100 times better. Lovely personal service that is different from your average salon
H Engleman20:49 21 Mar 18Make-up tutorial from Kirsty was warm, personal, professional, educational and practical at once. Learnt more in 2 hrs than from 4 decades of magazine articles, inc choosing make-up colours and products to suit my complexion, application techniques, and how to emphasise my best features while minimising my lesser-favoured ones. Astounding and a little emotional to see my younger-day features returning to life, without a trace of a mask-like appearance and not a hint of product-selling. Can't thank Kirsty enough for her skills and teaching expertise, and can't wait to try out what she's taught me.
Paula B12:31 07 Feb 18Booked a haircut here firstly for the quirky retro decor. The salon is amazing and everybody so friendly. Wasn't too sure what I wanted done as it was my first haircut in a year - and always a bit scary trying somewhere new! Loretta put me instantly at ease and seemed to know what I wanted even though I wasn't sure myself! I've ended up with a gorgeous style I love and am completely chuffed to bits with. Really relaxing atmosphere, great chat with the girls and a lovely cup of tea to boot. Already booked my next appointment and looking forward to it. ????????????????????
Danuta Orlowska17:39 02 Feb 18Super friendly quirky salon - very happy to have found Tina and her team. Vintage hair styles are her speciality and I have enjoyed every visit to this small salon which has a huge heart. Totally recommended. The orange 1960s typewriter is a great piece of wall art! Can I give 6 stars please?
Aileen Lightbody07:22 18 Dec 17I've been going here for a few years now. All I've ever had is a wet cut, usually when I've let my grow so out of shape it's a mess! Tina though makes an excellent job of restoring it. In fact it's one of the best haircuts I've ever had. Very reasonable prices. Comfortable friendly salon. Would definitely recommend.
