Have not been back to Jo Partridge since having a fringe cut which made me look like Friar Tuck ....


Shingo at Kuki is brilliant, have always had an excellent cut there. I have very thin fine hair and it's important to me to have a good cut.


Kuki is also very reasonably priced.

Try Marco at Studio Salon Education, 515 Norwood Road West Norwood, 0208 670 6825, he used to be a Vidal Sassoon director and has just set up his new salon, he's great and really deserves to make it a success. I've got thick curly hair and he manages to make it look lovely... no mean feat!

My vote goes to Miguel at Rocks Hair http://www.rockshair.com/

He has lots of glowing recommendations here on the forum (how I discovered him) and has bags of enthusiasm and experience as a salon and session stylist.

I have really bog-standard, long, straight hair and always thought that it would look the same post a cut from most decent salons. However, I really notice the difference with Miguel. It just seems to frame my face better and - crucially - still looks good if I don't blow dry (like 90% of the time - two children under 3years isn't conducive to lengthy styling...)

Prior to Miguel, I flirted with lots of Japanese salons in the West End at the City and also a stint at Brooks & Brooks and Daniel Herscheon Jnr but Miguel is the best I've found.

I don't normally post recommendations for my hairdresser here as she's not 'close by local' (she's at London Bridge at the back of Guys) but she does do an amazing cut - she's one of the owners of a Japanese salon and the focus is really on cut more than anything else. As others have said, it depends what you want and need from a hairdresser. I keep my hair quite short and she's excellent at coming up with a shape/style that works for me even when it grows out a bit, but I quite like a strong/fashion type cut.


If this is the sort of thing you're looking for, and you don't mind a short train ride, I would certainly recommend her - Mariko at Malishi Hair Design - http://www.malishi.com/prices.html

Another recommendation for Shingo at Kuki on Bellendon Road. I have struggled to find a regular hairdressers to go to after moving to the area 3 years ago. Shingo is very precise, makes his own recommendations on what he thinks will suit you but most importantly listens to what you want.

I wouldn't go anywhere else now!

I use Angie. She has worked for Rush and other big names. I have used her for 10 yrs and she is a brilliant colourist and stylist and in particular she gives great subtle cuts for my long hair, which has stopped me taking drastic action on occasions to chop it all off! She is personable and is an ol' pro. I miss the salon experience but she fits into a working mums schedule because she comes to my home. Everyone thinks I'm still a natural blonde too. Her prices are really competitive too.She doesn't know I'm recommending her either so say that Brigid recommended her; her number is 07506130249

    • I personally, just lost respect as this is not the time to.disrupt hospitals and put additional strain on stretched resources.  BBC News - Doctors vote to go ahead with this week's five-day strike https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c246dnyjylqo
    • I'm guessing that most people with pets would not bring either the pets or fireworks into their day to day conversations, to complain or otherwise. Are you suggesting that only "timid" pets are scared by fireworks? What evidence do you have for that, exactly?  Or are you equating being scared of fireworks with being "timid"? And what about the foxes and other wildlife? Is it ok for them to be scared? Firework noise is not a noise that "comes with normal city living" ! What a very strange thing to say! Are you one of the people who have been constantly letting off fireworks recently? I'm assuming you don't have any pets yourself, or you wouldn't have these opinions, but if you do have pets, please share how they react when they hear loud bangs. Unless they are goldfish, in which case you probably wouldn't be able to tell.
    • Well, I know a lot of people in London with pets and I've never heard any of them complain about fireworks.  Maybe what's not ok is keeping timid animals in a metropolis when they are scared of the noises that come with normal city living.
    • We git a ticket when we tried to park there to watch the fireworks.  Anyways we didn't even get a space and so we didn't actually park.  But we got a penalty notice.  We just paid up.  And we won't be taking our car their ever again.  You probably needed a Southwark council visitors permit.  I imagine it would have needed to be booked online B4 or by the end of the day that you parked. Beat thing to do is contact Southwark Council Estate parking to clarify the situation.   I hope your freebie was worth the value of your penalty.
