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

    • In just two days, we’ll take to the streets to show Donald Trump that he and his politics are not welcome here. On Saturday the global far-right mobilised their biggest protest for decades. We want to show that supporters of Trump and fascism are not the majority – far from it. Here are all the details you need for the day. The march assembles at Portland Place, near the BBC, at 2pm (see assembly blocs below). After speeches here, the march will move off at 3pm. It will then march down Regent St, through Piccadilly Circus, on Whitehall (past Downing St) to our rally at Parliament Square. The rally at Parliament Square will begin around 5pm and finish at 7pm. If you can’t make it to the march, feel free to join the rally after work! (Nearest tube: Westminster). The short, accessible version of the route assembles at the top of Whitehall (SW1A 2DY) at 4.30pm to march to Parliament Square for 5pm. You may also prefer to just join the rally directly at Parliament Square.  Join a bloc – and make friends! Our movement is diverse, and various elements are forming ‘blocs’ on the march to emphasise their visual presence collectively. You can join these blocs or form up behind them:   A) Palestine, near BBC, W1A 1AA B) Climate, W1B 1NS C) Amnesty, around junction with New Cavendish St, W1B 1LU D) Migrants' rights, W1B 1LS E) Jewish bloc, W1B 1QQ F) Ukraine, around junction with Weymouth St, W1B 1JL G) Europe, W1B 1NR More stewards still needed Stewards are a crucial part of keeping the protest safe for everyone to participate. They are a visible point of contact for attendees who may need directions or other assistance. Experience of stewarding is useful but it's also fine if you haven't done it before. You will be issued with a hi-vis jacket and briefed in advance and on the day.  Sign up to be a steward Staying comfortable on the day The demonstration lasts for several hours, so we suggest you should:     Bring a bottle of water and snacks (and eat beforehand)     Charge your phone fully the night before, and bring a portable charger if you can     Go to the loo beforehand (really!)     Buddy up with someone, or stick together as a group – it can be hard to find people easily if people wander off     Coming alone? Protests can be a great place to meet like-minded people. If you feel unsure, you can always talk to a steward     Consider the weather: bring a waterproof jacket or wear suncream where necessary     Wear comfortable clothes and footwear, and use our accessible route if you need to (see above) Bring your friends and family on Wednesday. Let’s make this massive! In solidarity, Stop Trump Coalition
