Had my haircut today by David and I have never been so pleased with a salon experience, from the customer service, David’s knowledge and expertise as well as of course the quality of the cut itself. Everyone is so friendly yet professional and the salon itself has a lovely vibe. I can’t wait to return for my Christmas cut and hope I leave once again in as good a mood as I did today - I’m sure I will!

Really disappointed with the zero tolerance approach of missed appointment fee. I don't normally book ahead as my schedule is busy.
The salon encourage me to book ahead so I went along with it.
I realised 2 days after I had missed my appointment, and checked my texts for a reminder. I had missed the text that had been sent at 8pm the night before, which made it impossible to adjust my appointment within 24hrs (if I had noticed it).
I run my own business and I find this lack of understanding given the circumstances extremely poor customer service. This is my first and only time of missing an

Ashleigh did my hair for my wedding and it was amazing. She was so patient with me when I kept changing my mind! I had a great experience and found their prices very reasonable. Thank you, Ashleigh!

Very relaxed atmosphere. Fabulous haircut by John. Definitely recommend The Head Gardener. Might not leave it 18 months between cuts 😜 Even better you can book online 😁
