Services

There's no unified system of Job titles in Hairdressing. A hairdresser in a small quiet Salon may title themselves as a "Creative Artistic Director" but may be less skilled or experienced than a "Stylist" in a Salon where the culture of training and expectations of the required standard of hairdressing are at a much higher level.
At HAC we offer the full range of hairdressing services that you'd expect from a professional 5 Star Hairdressing Salon including Hair Cutting, Hair Colouring, Colour Correction, Hair Styling, Hair Treatments and Wedding Hair. We want to make people look and feel fantastic.

My first visit to HAC. 15 months since my last proper haircut so I was really looking forward to it. I was not disappointed. Covid precautions made you feel very safe. Lovely salon and most important Shannon, my stylist took time with my cut and helped me with how I could style it myself. Left feeling such better...can't say more. Thank you HAC.

First time appointment today with Alex at HAC. Being new to the area I was a little nervous finding a hairdresser I was happy with.
I need not have worried, Alex was friendly, and professional. I came away happy and reassured that I had made the right choice in choosing HAC. Thank you Alex.

I have visited the salon twice in the past month. First as a competition win and secondly as a paying customer. The service I recieved on both occassions was outstanding. I generally feel quite awkward when visiting a salin but both Alex and Hollie made me feel really relaxed. My hair looked amazing after my blow dry and again after my cut. Thank you so much, I will definitely be back.

My bridesmaids and I went in to get our hair done at HAC for my wedding in June. Alex did mine and she did an incredible job - it stayed in perfectly all day and she really took on board exactly what I was after (a natural half up half down look with soft curls and a flower piece in the back). The bridesmaids also absolutely loved theirs! The team made us feel so welcome.. giving us prosecco and tea and made it a really special experience. Thanks so much HAC!

I don't go often for a haircut and with quite wild curly hair usually dread it, but coming to HAC is a wonderfully different experience. Sara and her team are so friendly, seem upliftingly enthusiastic about their work, and have a fascinating wealth of experience. I live in London and just can't find a hairdressers there that makes me feel so happy, so I'll keep getting my hair cut on holiday and looking forward to it! Highly, highly recommended.

Love, love, LOVE my hair! These exceptionally talented hairdressers are nothing short of miracle makers! After years of getting a hairdressers inch (4 inches) chopped off my hair from most hairdressers in kingsbridge despite only wanting a real inch and getting awful dye jobs that shattered my confidence, I finally came to the highly recommended HAC for a trim and colour worth every penny. I will never go to another hair dressers again and I recommend anyone who has suffered at the scissors to come to this welcoming and wonderful hairdressers, you will not regret it!

I may be a man, but as a wedding photographer I think I qualify to review this amazing little business. The team at HAC were amazing, looking after the bride, her bridesmaids and both the bride and groom's mums. They couldn't have been more helpful and professional. The hair do's on all involved were gorgeous and they even gave the bride and crew their own room to get ready in (above and beyond just doing the hair) I can't rate them high enough! 😀
