Kind words
Rated 5.0 — here's why
I had my hair done by Kirsty and I honestly couldn’t be happier! She gave me a gorgeous cut and added highlights that turned out absolutely perfect. She really listened to what I wanted and made sure everything suited my face and style. The colour looks so natural, the blend is beautiful.
Tracey
Joana did my hair last Sunday, she was very gentle with my hair. She not only listened to what I wanted but also advised what cut would be good for me and also advised on how to care my hair. She was the first hairdresser that understood what exactly I wanted for my cut to be.
Mercy
I went to MJ hair for the first time yesterday for a full head of highlights and cannot believe the transformation! I had dark brown box dye in my hair so was worried I wouldn’t achieve the blonde colour I was wanting, however my colour is better than I could’ve ever expected!
