Martina did my half head of highlights and cut She was excellent and took the time to really understand what I wanted. I was really impressed with the result. I liked the complimentary popcorn. I wasn't offered any wine, which other reviews mentioned.
I liked the products Martina used on my hair and I went to buy them at a later date.
Martina had had worked all day and didn't get a lunch break till just before I arrived at 5pm, she mentioned this twice and I was left feeling guilty for being there although I don't think this was intentional.
I turned up and was told that I would not be getting the 'full head of highlights' which I had paid for (£75) but instead they would be dispersed throughout my hair because it would 'look better'. I know that my hair is thick and that I had previously dyed it and so would need toner, but I had paid for the highlights and that is what I was expecting/hoping for. I did go along with what the hairdresser was saying though, I didn't feel as though I could argue with him.
The haircut took about 5 or 6 minutes, it was just a trim but I felt as though it was very rushed.
The offer of orange juice was nice, as was the popcorn, the lady washing my hair was very patient.
I don't know whether I would do a voucher again as the I felt as though I was rushed through the appointment. I didn't get what I wanted, getting your haircut is so expensive, and I didn't feel that great after it.
Stage Door is a salon that strives to make your hair treatment a relaxing and really pleasant experience. I walked in the door and was offered cold juices, water etc - which on a hot day was really needed. All the staff were really friendly. I then met my hairdresser, Martina, who was amazing. She spent a lot of time consulting me about my hair (which needed a lot of TLC to be honest). She put three colours through my hair and spent ages getting beautiful fine highlights. She is chatty and fun throughout. I was offered a glass of wine - what a great way to start a weekend!! and then got a great cut. I had a really stressful week but Martina and the staff at Stage Door more than made up for it. I would definitely recommend it. My hair looks 100% better and I have enjoyed finding an honest and talented hairdresser too.
I was looking for a new hairdresser and I think I have now found one. Alex is a great hairdresser and really did a fab job on my colour. Will definitely be going back!!
This was great value for money - £50 for Half a head of highlights and a cut and blow dry.
Alex was great fun and has a really bubbly personality - we chatted throughout.
He was a bit slap-dash with his technique, some of the highlights were a bit too thick.
However what I really liked was that he was happy to fix what I wasn't happy with - he applied a bit of extra colour on a streak that was too blond for me - which took a bit of extra time but he made sure I left happy. So I would say that you should try this salon, the offers are great VFM, and Alex is really fun - just be clear with what you want.
