Examples of our Treatments
If you’re unsure what your next hairstyle should look like, be inspired by some of our treatments below.
Cut and Blow Dry
Your hair will be washed and conditioned, followed by cutting using methods that suit your desired result.
Your hair will then finished with a luxury blow dry and/or other styling techniques.
Balayage
Balayage is a technique where hair colour is painted onto the hair to create a graduated, more natural-looking highlight effect.
Balayage continues to be a dominant trend in the hair industry, and is a very popular treatment in UK Salons.
Deep Conditioning
Our deep conditioning treatment is a procedure in which your hair is coated and treated with nourishing products.
This will restore your hair’s moisture, strengthens it and reduces any damage caused by chemicals.
Hair Colouring
If you fancy a change of colour in your life, we offer several options.
These include Whole Head Tints, which are a temporary way to change your hair colour, lasting around 4-12 weeks.
