This location is tiny! And there's no mobile phone reception so make sure to ask for the wifi password if you have to wait. More importantly: Arkin is a hair wizard. I explained that I needed a long lasting style to take me through a dinner that night in London (Tuesday), a conference the following day (Wednesday), and a flight to Phoenix (Thursday). It was a tall order and he delivered. When I took the stage on Friday morning my hair still looked awesome!

I had a total melt down, I've been dying my hair for over 11 years, (level 7 naturally, so it's quite an easy lift) and nothing like this had ever happened before. I called ESHK crying and sent them photos, and they sent me Ricky, who has 25 years + of experience, and a bleach specialist. Ricky made me feel cared for from Day 1 - and assured me that he'd be with me every step of the way to fix this, spending over 5 hours in the chair each session with me to painstakingly correct the broken (and orange!!) mess. Three sessions later and my hair is back on its way to being healthy. The straw like texture I left the original stylist with is - dare I say it- almost silky? I've found my London hairdresser for life. Blondes - go to Ricky! Side note- the entire ESHK team are some of the loveliest and kindest people I've met- the salon is so comfortable, welcoming, and you can tell the people who work there love eachother and their jobs. Can't recommend them enough!

Laid-back is the watchword here, and nothing felt rushed or pressured. The prices are not bad for a London salon. I was really chuffed with my highlights, which I had purchased as part of a special deal, but I will definitely be going back for more!

Unfortunately I never got the name of the nail artist, but she was professional, friendly, and gave me good tips about how to care for my thin nails. It cost a little more than I expected (soak off and French gel nail = 50), but I am happy with the service, quality of the work. I would definitely recommend this salon.

Then, desperate for a last minute hair cut I went to the place nearest to my flat - Whites. I have not gone anyone else since. A great cubby hole of a hairdresser with a bunch of excellent hairdressers. I always think it is slightly strange to review hairdressing saloons as it depends on who is cutting your hair not where you get it cut. However, Mark (who does mine) is great and affable the place itself is central and has a nice vibe. Go (but don't take the evening appointments as I want those)

Tiff did my hair, and I am very happy with the results. My motto for curly hair is, "do no harm" because I have had some really bad salon experiences... until I met my girl Melissa in Pasadena.. but I don't have access to her anymore. I knew once Tiff started cutting my hair that she knew what she was doing. Curly hair cutting is all about the shape and releasing the curls. Once it gets too long, the curls start getting weighed down, so a skilled haircutter knows how to keep the length but release some of the hair's weight. i also had a touchup on my color. I'm very happy with the results. I think I found my salon in London.

After all, a free beer and cool chairs are only short-term, while your new head of hair is a long-term project :) With that said, I felt like I got more of a wham bam thank you man type of haircut. Sometimes I do enjoy a quickly now and then, but not so much for my haircut. The guy before went 15 minutes over into my appointment (totally cool and shows the stylist is about quality over quantity), but oddly enough, my cut only lasted 30 minutes. I actually wasn't sure if my haircut experience was over because I didn't get the hot towel treatment that others received. After I think the stylist was done with my hair, I asked to use the restroom quickly and if there was anything else left to do, we could do that once I was back. When I got back upstairs, the next customer was already in the chair and I didn't even get any acknowledgement, thanks, or even to finish the beer I had next to the sink! I awkwardly paid and promptly left... As for the haircut itself, I'm a pretty talkative and outgoing guy, but I couldn't really click with the person, whom I shall not mention, cutting my hair. But no matter, as long as the cut is good, I'm ok with small chit chat. Now, perhaps I have unrealistic expectations, but if I wanted to go to a place where they cut my hair according to exactly what I tell them, I could easily go to a cheapo place. But if I want to give some freedom to the stylist to make suggestions, take a look at the shape of my head, take notice that the crown of my head much thinner than the front, and basically take lead in ensuring I walk out their door with a smile on my face to match my new rad hairdo, I come to places like Huckle. But sadly this was not the case.... The top of my hair was cut to highlight the thinning parts, I had hair going to and fro in an unnatural parting of my hair, and it was strangely styled in the end. All in all, I felt like the guy cutting my hair could care less and I was just another haircut to get out of the way. Don't get me wrong, I'm not high maintenance or anything so I can easily walk away from these things with no hard feelings, but still... I didn't leave loving this place either. Plus, I'm a dude, so my hair will grow out and I'll need another cut in a month or so. I would give my overall experience and haircut two stars. But my experience is based on one out of many stylists they have there, so maybe it was just my bad luck in the random selection. Plus, I saw many happy customers that day and I do like the establishment and location as well. So adding those items in, I could be nice and give it three stars. I'm still not sure if I will be back to get another person, but we'll see next month!
