"Very average Salon"

A review of Hairdresser by Anonymous written on Thursday 5th of July 2007

I've been going to Stripes for almost a year now. There are about only 2 really good hair stylists. The rest are average stylists. If you're a male looking for a fashionable trendy look then I recommend going to another hairdresser. My significant other has gone a few times with different hair stylists and he's come home unhappy with his cut.

He tried getting a good cut with different stylists, so that just shows you they're not that qualified/trained.

I had my make-up done there and was stunned at how amateur their make-up artist was! I left with an orange face! I looked like a clown!

Last time I ever have a "professional make-up artist" do my makeup from this Stripes Salon.

Regarding facials, there is one particular facialist worth seeing. Other than that, good luck. The facialist I usually see was unavailable at the time, so the unfriendly receptionist set me up with someone else without consulting me.

She was a smoker and her hands smelled like smoke. She also took a smoke break whilst I was having steam put on my face.

The receptionist isn't friendly at all. She sounds as if she doesn't enjoy talking to people. She must not take down notes because she's messed up my appointments a few times by scheduling me with different hair stylists, facialists, etc. Her unfriendliness makes me not want to return to Stripes. Pity since it's close to my residence.

You'll see what I mean when you phone Stripes to make an appointment. .
