Chose from 14 colours - 7 to dial it up for vibrant bolds and 7 to dial it down for pastel shaded kisses of colour! Traditionally, brown and blonde have existed separately. On the one side, women who favour rich, natural brunette tones in their hair and on the other, blondes who prefer a lighter, brighter colour result and sometimes switch between the two looks.

Had a complete colour change and highlights with Sadie who worked her magic on my hair and I am absolutely delighted with the result and can’t thank Sadie enough for going above and beyond and really working hard to give me what I’d asked for.
The salon has such a lovely atmosphere and all the staff are friendly, welcoming and extremely knowledgeable. I am particularly impressed with the extra lengths that Clare (owner) has gone to to to make the salon more environmentally friendly, she is doing her bit to make the planet a bit greener!

I went in with brown&black box dyed hair. I knew my hair would lift but did not expect it to lift as much as Claire& the team managed too, using metal detox my hair is even more shiny and soft than it was when I walked in. I absolutely love my hair! Can’t wait to go back and get more .

So just before Christmas in 2018 I arrived at Utopia, having never used them before with a disaster hair cut and colour from another hairdresser. I had not asked for the balayage colour which had taken all the blonde from my medium length hair and was in a panic with Christmas looming in a couple of weeks. I looked awful. Utopia fitted me in upon seeing my distress despite the busy run up to Christmas for them, they found me space.
Sadie then took time to discuss what it was I wanted to achieve and with her team we trawled over colour samples. So much care was taken to select the right colours
