Like your hair and beauty done in one place? I do. My…read morecolleague introduced this place to me when she came in to work with hair cut and colour. She raved about the lovely service, and how staff stayed back and assisted the other to get her the colour she wanted. Sweet. So I came in with another colleague, she is there for a haircut and I am there for eyebrow threading. The shopfront is only about 1.5 metres wide so it's easy to walk past or undermine this salon, but once you walk in you will find a long narrow salon with a separate area at the back and beautician of the house Rimi does her magic upstairs. The hairdresser listened to my friend's request and did a good job cutting and thin layering her super thick hair. She was told the story that this salon's specialty is hair extension and they love doing colours. My eyebrow threading+tinting was a lovely experience and both of us walked away happy and with a $20 voucher each for next visit. Friendly staff, lovely service, satisfied clients. If I didn't have to cross the bridge to get here, this will be my local salon.

The hair is of 100% human origin and the hair colour matches perfectly with mine and what is most important I can put the hair extensions alone without any help wherever I want. I follow their rules of care and till today I don't have any problem with my hair extensions. I strongly recommend West End Hair to everyone! They are trusted company with excellent services and professional team who can help to make your best choice!

I have only been here the once…read more I had a trim and also eyebrow wax. The haircut was average. Minimal chit chat, sort of what I wanted, but not quite. As far as haircuts go, it was more than I usually pay, but much less than some people I know pay. Now, the eye brow wax was possibly the best I have ever had. I'm not sure what type of wax they used, but it didn't hurt. Not at all. I'm used to building up what the pain is going to be like in my head before hand, and then thinking 'Well that wasn't as bad as I thought.' But this time, no pain, and only the smallest amount of redness (I usually look like a stop sign after a wax). Don't go out of your way for a haircut, but definitely for a wax.

Hadn't been to a hairdresser salon for more than 5 years because I was a victim of violence which…read moremade me agoraphobic and highly anxious in public spaces. Walked into this place for the first time about six weeks ago on a self dare to actually leave the house. Ended up in High on Hair & beauty. Warwick introduced himself and looked after me. He spent a good 30-40minutes of his time going through styles and cuts from fashion mags just so he could understand what I wanted, and visa-versa, to see whether my type of hair could work with the styles and colour I originally had in mind, and with what would suit the contours of my face. All the while his focus was primarily on me, which meant he wasn't being pushed and pulled over to other clients at the same time as he was taking care of me. And that time he gave me during the initial "interview" wasn't even booked. I simply went in for advice with a view to making an appointment if it felt right, and it did. He booked me in for the following week, and we ended up morphing bits and pieces from two styles that I liked; one would've suited my hair perfectly, and the other suited my curls perfectly. Now, instead of dull, lifeless, colourless hair that I used to chop off via a ponytail every six months or so at home, Warwick gave me exactly what I had in mind but was unable to properly articulate. He was patient, friendly, honest, easy to talk to, educational, and the end result was such a miraculous transformation that even my own son did not recognize his own mother when next he saw me. Warwick gave me a cut that softened and defined my natural curls, took at least 10 years off my haggard, traumatised old face, but gave the cut and colour a modern kind of beachy look, neatly windblown, and beautifully sun-kissed with the colours and toners he used. Six weeks later.... and I was back again today for a touch-up of my roots and a trim, and I have to say it's 2 for 2, fellas. Even the neck basins were comfortable to lay back into, and this comes from someone who suffers major spinal issues and some serious Fibromyalgia. Love the atmosphere, as it makes nervous, anxious people like me feel much more at ease. Everyone is casual and friendly, but highly professional and they know what they're doing. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to all my friends, providing they don't knock me out of my now regular spot on the salon chair. When you find a decent hair stylist, you have to keep him or her if at all possible. Warwick is mine baby yeah! Tote's quiche (coming from a 45 yr old). Ha! Great salon. Great staff. Prices are pretty high, but you get what you pay for drearies. You want quality? You'll get quality here, but you must inevitably pay for quality. Bottom line. Hey! - I have to subsist on a Disability Pension with a 17yr old kid to support, so if I can manage it, surely you can too. Keep up the great art of doing what you do, and I'll keeping coming back to you. Warmest regards, Hope Springs xo.

Based on Yelp reviews, I went to take a look at the salon. It was very busy on a Wed afternoon, which I took as a good sign and made an appointment for Friday. Atsuko did a fantastic job cutting and coloring my hair. Her attention to detail was impressive - she spotted mistakes in my previous haircut that even I hadn't noticed, and was very careful the the color didn't splatter or run onto my skin or clothing. I brought some photos of my ideal cut - she did a great job marrying the style to what my hair actually does. She even gave me some tips on how to blow dry it better when I am doing it myself. Plus, she managed to pull this all off in less than 2 hours! (And it didn't feel rushed). My hair looks amazing and I am so happy with it! And even though they seem to always be busy, they are somehow able to fit people in on short notice so don't be shy about calling them.

My hair wasn't cut as much as I wanted, almost forcing me to have to get another haircut. The stylist (Michela) was friendly but didn't seem that experienced, particularly for the price. Worst of all, she kept trying to up-sell me on products I didn't want, such as a hair treatment and then shampoo/conditioner. It made me uncomfortable, as I haven't had stylists be so pushy before (it isn't like this is a cheap haircut). That alone made me decide I wouldn't go back. If I ask for recommendations, that's one thing, but I did not and being asked if I wanted to buy these things was annoying. As for positives, it was nice having a complimentary hot drink on arrival and the water (cucumber? herbal?) was a perk as well. The space is spacious and has natural light on sunny days. Reception and shampoo people are very chill.
