Just to clarify the direction of this review: This place is a disaster. I would never go back there again.

I had purchased a deal for a Brazilian Keratin treatment, which I was having for the first time ever. From the way this salon sells itself as a place for pampering and relaxation, I was surprised to find myself in the McDonald's of hair salons, designed for quick touch-and-go, high turn-overs. The staff were friendly enough upon my arrival, offering me a drink, but then it all turned sour. The stylist told me that I would have to pay £10 extra if it was found that I needed extra treatment. I have two hairs and a half on my head, so I was certain I wouldn't need it. But lo and behold, I did! However, I was soon to discover this was all a big hoax as while my treatment was setting in, another client with thicker, longer hair came in and was sat next to me. She was sold the £10 'extra' thing too, but she immediately caught them out and said she'd had Keratine treatment before and she was certain she didn't need anything 'extra'. Clever woman, unlike me. I'm not the confrontational type, so I let it be. At the end, they told me that I needed to use special parabin-free products and sold me their own line products for £50!!! Like an idiot, I took them, only to find out later that I could have purchased them from any Boots for significantly less than half the price! I know I sound like I only have a single brain cell, but as someone who had never had this Kertain treatment before, I had no idea how things worked and I just went with what I was told. I'd like to think I am now wiser.

It gets worse, though: a week or so ago, I went to a proper salon for a hair-cut and the hairdresser was appalled by my hair cut, although only 3 months had passed since my visit to the hellish gf salons. The layering was all wrong and the hair cut was among the messiest she'd ever seen.

Avoid this salon at all costs. They're just going to smile at you while they rip you off.

Irolis Removals is the most unprofessional company I have ever had to deal with. I booked 3 weeks in advance of my house move, after having struggled for days to get anyone to answer the phone. On the day before I was due to move they canceled out on me, supposedly because one of their drivers was ill. I suggested that surely as a serious company they had back up plans in such circumstances. After supposedly trying, they called me the next day to say they couldn't find anyone. I was put in a very, very awkward position. Last minute cancelations are very amateurish. A serious company would always have a back up plan. I would suggest Irolis Removals is avoided at ALL costs!
