I’m so grateful to Sam today. She listened carefully to the ideas / preferences I had, made helpful suggestions for the cut and pointers for care, and gave me an amazing style. Couldn’t have asked for more!

THE BEST.
Honestly if I could give more stars I would... I am absolutely over the moon with my hair. Yoyo is honestly a magician, she is precise, delicate and you can really tell she gives everything more than 100%. First of all, I didn't ask for an easy hair style (transitioning from 3 years dyed black hair to suddenly bleach red hair) Yoyo made sure that everything was exactly how I wanted it to be, I have never had such a patient hairdresser. Poor thing even stayed till end of close, I was so grateful. The Point have such an incredible team, 2 absolutely lovely assistants- Crystal (sorry if

Had my gel nails done here a couple times with Ashlin who is incredibly talented and took so much time and care over every detail. Will definitely be becoming a regular there and 100% would recommend. Very good value for money. Cheaper than other salons I’ve visited and a super nice and friendly atmosphere 😊

Everything was fantastic - from when I walked in I was made to feel very welcome. Really happy with YoYo - felt very heard and involved with what I wanted for my cut and very happy with the result. I loved that there was a salon dog 🤩 and the lady who washed my hair gave a great head massage. All in all a very positive experience was had.

Great attention throughout my experience: from the young woman who washed my hair (telling me at each stage what was going to happen - great communication skills); to Ian being attentive to my hair - its quality, how it falls, what would suit my face. I left feeling very soothed and happy with my hair cut and tips for looking after it.

I had my hair cut by Cleo this morning and I’m genuinely delighted. She listened to what I wanted and delivered a beautiful long bob, which looks so healthy. The salon is very clean and stylish, and has a lovely relaxed ‘green’ feel, without pretence. All the staff I dealt with were very personable, friendly and professional.

Ian really takes time to listen. He considers what will work for you taking into consideration face shape, hair texture and lifestyle. Best hairdresser I have visited for many years (including a recent trip to a top London salon). Love my cut and looking forward to next time. Thanks Ian!

I have been going to The Point for so many years now ! great place for a cut and colour ! A big thank you to Ian the owner for sorting out my hair last year and giving me a good style after overcoming losing half of my hair due to illness ! I do love the cut now it is so easy to manage ! Another huge thank you to Sam today for colouring my hair literally from scratch after me doing home top ups because of lockdowns ! I am so happy with my hair now ! looks amazing ! I would highly recommend this salon as it seems no matter which staff member you have an appointment with they all do a fab job very

Just had my hair done by YoYo. And I love it! She listened to me and created exactly what I wanted, she also gave me advice about styling. And she has such a soft touch I was falling asleep! I am very happy and will go back to her (probs with more courage to cut even shorter!)

Visited today, staff are all very friendly and hard working. My stylist Yo-yo, was lovely and attentive. I am very happy with my cut and blow dry. Due to lockdown my last visit was nearly four months ago! I feel human again, thank-you 🤣😁.
