She immediately got what I was looking for, tailored it to suit my face and then showed me more styles that might work as well. She was friendly, efficient and really knew her stuff. I had such a great time with her and her team, and all the anxiety caused by the other disastrous hair experience vanished immediately. I would recommend her to anyone. Thanks so much Shelley!

I would like to take the time to thank Amanda for the outstanding job she did yesterday with my…read morebalayage ... I've never received so many compliments on my hair. She was fantastic from the consultation ( recommending olaplex as a pretreatment which is simply the best hair conditioning I have ever had) right through to talking me through products I might like to help maintain my colour going forward) Her knowledge of the davines products that muse sell is unrivalled, she talked me through them but at no point put any pressure on to buy anything she is just passionate about them ... I purchased products because I genuinely wanted too. Muse I should mention had to be hand selected & approved by davines in order to sell their products which they do exclusively ... The whole team are very welcoming ( I was in the salon 3 times, 1 for a free consultation another to get an olaplex and then my final appointment to get my balayage done) my Appointment was at 2.15pm and whilst the salon is open until 6pm on a Wednesday I was the last client of the day for her, they do this to ensure they can give you 100per cent of their focus, she constantly checked my colour & toner progress. I left 20 mins after closing and didn't feel hurried out the door at all! The salon is very modern and everything down to the coffee was faultless. I'm so happy to have found a hair dressers in Edinburgh I can trust. I carefully read reviews on this salon before trying them for myself and I am pleased to report they are clearly genuine reviews so I felt i should leave one of my own ... See you again soon!

I have been coming into Muse Hair for probably about 2 years or so. A friend of mine recommended…read morethis place and I got a discount on the first visit (as part of the recommendation from a friend) so that plus obviously the good hairdressing makes me keep coming back. The owner, Scott, has continued the family business which started in 1960 as a barber shop called Staynley's Hairdresser. The place is now known as Muse Hair. New clients will be asked to fill out a questionnaire which lists your likes, dislikes and general haircare routine etc. The staff in Muse are very friendly. When my hair is shampooed, they tell you what products they are using and you can also buy them here. It was here that I was recommended the Redken Blonde Glam shampoo which I now use regularly. On my recent visit (yesterday) I also saw a notice that if you check in to Muse on Facebook, you can get 10% off any retail products you buy. I usually just go for a haircut and blowdry, but I have also had highlights done here a few times, and always leave as a happy customer.

We were guests at a wedding in North Berwick and needed to get our hair done - so we went onto the…read moreinternet and picked this hairdresser at random. She fitted us all in on the morning of the wedding about 10 in total and had us all looking gorgeous by 1.30pm. Most were wash and blow drys but she put my daughers hair up in a really funky style and it was amazing. It stayed up all day and in fact even until the next morning. I suppose this had something to do with the dozens of clips in it! Would recommend this hairdressers to anyone.

I've got 99 problems but my hair ain't one of them!…read more Like most ladies, I am slightly obsessed with having good hair. Now what good hair is, will be a subjective point of view, but for me it is manageable and generally shiny and healthy looking as a result of a great cut. I first reviewed Angel Hairdressing about 3 months ago on my first visit. It's a local salon and after standing by it waiting for the bus for 2 years, I decided to give it a go when my budget couldn't stretch to a posh town salon do. So now, it is review No.200 and it had to be a 5 * review. Even though I my last hair cut was 3 months ago - I hadn't actually reached hair crisis point. My style had held perfectly even when growing and it was only as it really started to thicken up again (and growing very quickly) that I decided to cut it back again. It is probably the first hair cut that I've had where I've left a salon, the do has lasted a good few days before I had to wash and dry myself and it has been something I have been able to recreate myself, abet in Claire form, and not hairdresser form. Again - same fab cut. It is a small salon with one sink and 4 chairs. There are two stylists - Lisa who I think is the owner and Kerry who cuts my hair and who I think is fab. Same wet and dry cut as before - still in about 50 minutes even though my shape from last time had still held well, so again, great attention to detail to ensure my hair is perfect. Fab friendly and cheery service and great prices - still £28 for a cut and blow dry and I think it is under £15 for a wash and blow dry. It is not a tea/coffee and a biccy type place but to be honest, I never got the chance to have that any time before as when the cutting starts, that lean forward to get the cuppa could result in hair catastrophe and I'm not stupid enough to risk that. Busy weekend ahead with work and catching up with friends and I'm enjoying my glossy, well cut hair. So Angel Hairdressing, I'm sharing the Yelpy love and making sure my 200th review is a good one :-)

I've now been to Angel Hairdressing two times, and both of those I was pleased as punch by the…read moreresults! For one, it's absurdly close to my flat, which makes visits and appointments a breeze. Secondly of course would be the lovely staff. I've been served by the same hairdresser both my trips, and she remembered me the second go round, which makes for a pleasant welcome. Size-wise, It's a small joint, but more than enough room for the ladies to perform their miracles, and it feels reasonably homey inside. What seals the deal for me is the prices are totally reasonable--I've seen some places that make my eyes practically roll back in my head around town, and I've never been one to willingly shell out a week's paycheck for my hair. But Angel has fair prices to match the excellent service. My first go featured a simple cut, the second, a full coloring, and I'd give five stars to each venture. This is definitely my go-to salon! Extra perk: I was offered a cup of coffee or tea while waiting for my color to set. Don't mind if I do!

You get a good shot of vodka before she starts with the scissors... :) Which was perfect as I went from long to short so I needed it haha! I have very unruly super curly hair and always wanted it long but it never grew passed my shoulders. So I gave her freedom to do whatever. She made is short and so easy to maintain!!! I am going back tomorrow now three months later :) Also she does not tell me what I have to do, but works around how I treat my hair which is great. She said 'I cant train your hands', which makes sense as I am used to moving through my hair in a certain way for ages now. Having curly hair, I've been traumatised many many times since being a little girl coming from hair dressers. I have to say, this is one of the best experiences I ever had! So happy I found it!

I LOVE Vanity Thrills. Like the previous reviewer, I was super sad when miss dixiebells closed, but…read moreoverjoyed when I found out that Ariana was doing her own thing. It is such a treat getting my hair done, and makes getting ready for a party so much easier, especially since I got my make up done too. I literally just had to step to my dress and decide which handbag to use. Ariana worked her magic and sculpted my hair into victory rolls (caves not tunnels!) and the intricate work at the back of my hair is beautiful. She is a cool gal and knows her stuff. I like getting all my hair up, as then I can sleep in a head square (not the sexiest look I grant you) but I can eek three days out if my up doo as it is firmly in place with setting lotion / lacquer Kirby grips and hair spray. I had my make up done by Cat (freelance professional make up artist) that Ariana works with regularly. She is super fun and I honestly don't know how she made me look so good. My skin was glowing and my flicks were sharp. I kept doing a double take to see that it was actually me! I was so pleased with it. Thank you ladies for working your magic and getting this girl dolled up for her party.

Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, Vanity Thrills has emerged from the recently deceased Miss…read moreDixiebelle. I was absolutely horrified when I FINALLY had a reason to go vintage and Miss Dixiebelle was long gone, replaced by (I think) a cat cafe or a barber shop. Either way, devastation briefly ensued until I discovered Vanity Thrills, lurking on the side. recently launched after MD's closure, and with barely there premises in Abbeyhill shared with Cutie Cool Nails, I managed to get my hair style set in time for my vintage night out. My sister and I spent a lovely Sunday afternoon with Ariana being primped and I have to say, I actually never believed my hair would ever look that good. Mind, there were a million bobby pins in there, but it was an absolute work of art (that I couldn't for the life of me take a photo of). My sister, turned into my grandmother (looks wise, not age!) with a lovely bob set. Utterly delighted, and Ariana is lovely. Highly recommended, and I can't wait for another reason to go back. At the moment, the website is under construction, but there is an active Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/VanityThrillsVintageHairandBeautyParlour/timeline), so check it out to see the Vintage offerings there. VT does home appointments as well as at the salon, but I suspect the tea and biscuits won't flow quite as plentifully there!

It looked great & I felt a million dollars. The do stayed up all day & all night & survived the ceilidh & disco dancing, obligitatory drunken stumbling in huge heels & I was sad to take it down before bed. This time I was feeling brave & in need of a change. "I want to chop it all off", I said. "How short?" she asked. "Well, I need your advice.." I said. And advise me she did. We discussed a few options. The pros & cons of each. My reasons for wanting to go short, my expectations of how to care for each style, how each would look as it grew out. Things I hadn't even thought off. "are you sure?" She asked... ... I was. She snipped & chopped. Then there was a huge pile of hair on the floor. I gulped. I looked in the mirror. Jill had worked her magic once more.
