Bang was established in 2007, by husband and wife team Jon and Sarah Cotton, in a small corner shop premises on the outskirts of York centre. Within the first year of business, Bang had gained a solid reputation as THE place to go in York for creative hairdressing, achieving the accolade of Official Hairdressers to Miss England and landing the front cover of Yorkshire Living Magazine with their first photographic collection.
The salon was renowned for it's quirky decor, jukebox and a rebellious attitude towards what a salon vibe should feel like. Bang celebrated their first birthday with a Fashion Rocks style catwalk show to a crowd of 300+ guests at York's Duchess live music venue (pictured above).

First time visiting Bang, booked it based on reviews and took whatever stylist was available. I have to say I'll definitely be going back, Marie did an excellent job and I'm really happy. I often come out of hair salons not quite satisfied - I'm not very picky I just think the stylist hasn't quite got my face shape. But, this time none of that! Will be a repeat customer and look forward to Marie cutting my hair again!!!

I really enjoyed having my haircut with Kirsty. She was very friendly and welcoming and had an amazing way of blow drying that left my hair curly and not frizzy. The cut is just what I wanted. I also had a conditioning treatment that was very relaxing and has left my hair feeling soft. Thank you Kirsty for a lovely Christmas cut!

I visited bang about a month and a half ago and although I went away really unhappy with the result, I was really hesitant to leave a bad review and I wanted to try to live with it. Today I visited a different salon to mend the damage done to my hair, and realised quite how bad my experience at bang was.
I wanted balayage with toners and a cut, and although the overall placement was nice, the toners added very little and my hair was left feeling like straw. My stylist only told me once I was in the chair that she was still training, which she didn't tell me at the time of booking. I wouldn't have

I went in for a complete transformation and was not disappointed. I went from long to short hair with a perm and feel like an entirely new person. I love my hair. I love how professionally it was done. The staff was so sweet. And I can't wait to come back.

Everyone was so friendly and it has a great vibe, very relaxed. I had my hair restyled by Kacey after not having a haircut for an embarrassingly long time, and she was brilliant - she knew what would suit me. She also mentioned that they are baby friendly which is perfect for me next time! Overall a fantastic experience thank you and I will be back.
