For as long as I’ve known, I’ve been afraid of hairdressers. Yes, laugh if you must. But they have mastered something which eludes most women, having fabulous hair ALLTHETIME. I envy their perfect, well maintained styles and feel like an urchin child in comparison. So with this phobia I find it difficult to like a hairdresser, especially when they want to engage in mindless chatter about holidays and other such crap. As West End hair salons go, Haringtons is as sleek and glossy as the next but much quicker to drop in a 20% discount if they feel you are going to walk out the door. I also discovered that the staff of Haringtons are actually quite nice and not that intimidating. Yes of course there is the quota of bitchy queens, but the girl I got was so sweet and friendly. So I let her cut all my hair off while we chatted about boyfriends. If you are a new customer you get a welcome pack with discounts. I probably would actually go back here, just not any time soon of course.

Only place I’ll go for my highlights! I’ve tried other cheaper places but always end up back here just because they are so good! Always had decent hair cuts here too. The nice thing about this place is I relax when I’m there because I feel confident in their abilities and they always do exactly what you ask.

The best salon in London! I have tried other(cheaper) salons but have never been as happy with the results. The stylists really know how to cut hair here and I always feel totally confident with them — will always go back!

I had a friend who said he knew blonde. I had a colour disaster and returned to work streaked with dispicable brass, down 80 pounds and suitably depressed. Lyndsay who I later followed to Dappa Hair sorted me out, after my friend’s colourist Emma was too busy to take me. Lyndsay and student of hair Victoria, made my hair perfect. Victoria is still studying and also does cuts. We used to chat about indie bands(which she likes) her boyfriend down the street and the joy of shopping. Victoria cut my hair really well for 7 pounds on her school training night. You should go see Victoria too. Haringtons is a glamourous salon and they serve you hot drinks and juice and let you read magazines whilst you wait for your roots to take. This salon uses Loreal products and Keratase, which they sell along with Redken. I left because Lynsay left and she is my hair wizard. I may go back and get cut by Victoria and talk about Pidgeon Detectives. Go see Victoria for a cut!
