Not if, like me, you get your hair washed in stone cold water and then cut by a trainee who has never done a bob before. Plus it all took hours.


I'd rather pay thanks!

Hi guys


As I'm such a nice person I thought I'd share this link with you ! ;-)


The deal is for:


Men's Haircut (?15), or Ladies' Haircut and Blow Dry (?18), with Half-Head of Foils (?35)


at Willis B on Lordship Lane


I bought the women's haircut and blow dry yesterday, think it's a bit of a bargain, especially as I have such ridiculously long hair!


I was going to buy the men's haircut for my son, but I think Headnizm do a haircut for men for about the same price so it's not really worth it... Willis B seems a more upmarket salon?


Oh and tomorrow is the last day of the deal so I'd get in quickly!

I have been living in Dulwich for 15 years and spent the first 2 years traveling 125 miles to get me haircut and colored, then decided to give the Hairdressers in Dulwich a try. Went to Village Way but they put me off when the stylist left and they just put me in with somebody else without asking me if this was ok. Went to Willis B - Just plain rude. Partridges didn't care who you were or what you wanted. Have now defected to town and have the best hairdresser with awesome service. I think they have the best customer service ever!! They could easily teach others and over ?100 cheaper! they work late nights and all I have to do is jump on the bus to get there.
Village way hairdressers do not charge anything like the prices you posted .Do your homework properly next time and don't try to give eastdulwich hairdressers such a bad name.We have been here for over 20 years and have always provided affordable prices for the community of east dulwich.
I didn't name which hairdresser charged me that much. But my last hairdressing bill in Dulwich was ?185 for a cut and colour 5 years ago. My last bill from my current hairdresser was ?95. I try and support local buisness all the time even if it cheaper for me to buy from chains or get big companys to building work for us we always ask local buisness to quote for work. They are normally more expensive but we go with them to support the local economy. What you failed to pick up on was the comment about poor customer service that I recevied and the lack of customer service. I don't mind paying extra if I get good service.

Shame quality and price don't go together though. no not looking for an argument it is simply an observation over the last 20 plus years you have been in business.


As I've said in the past prices in ED are incredibly high for the service given. One would expect a hairdresser to be able to do a decent job regardless of the price being charged. No?

What is the quality you're asking for, the haircuts ,colour ,your Service. it's obvious you can't please everybody from your post. if you had a problem with this salon it would be better to come in and speak to the manager rather than air your moans on here

The moans are in general aimed at the high end salons in ed that are charging nearly as much if not MORE than some high end west end salons that have such high levels of customer service, high award winning standards of cutting and colouring and truly great professional customer service... I just think its robbery charging the same or near prices when offering nowhere near the levels of service... And by looks of things MANY agree with me... I myself am mobile when I'm home from the ships but was thinking about opening a salon but feel it would be very hard with so many local salons.


this moan is not aimed at the budget/ cheap end of the market in ed but the high end who prize themselves on being the best and according to their prices also thinking they are in the west end or even on the same level when they are not.

Cost me ?168 to have half head highlights and cut in GM's last week. I love my hairdresser but not that much. After 5 years of going there I've decided to stop now as that's just daylight robbery. It just makes me feel they are being too greedy now as much as I like going there.
  • 4 weeks later...

Where are Headmasters near here?


The salon Lawler Steel in West Dulwich nr. Cafe Rouge charges ?95 for a half head of highlights with the owner. Full head ?135. The haircuts with her are ?65.


Think they were raved about when they opened but those prices are eye-watering.


They did have some good offers on, but no longer.


Edited to put correct prices.

Balham (train from forest hill), Clapham South (you can get the 37 to clapham common and walk down, or train to clapham high street from denmark hill/peckham rye and bus it down the high street), Clapham Common or Bromley are probably the easiest to reach from the various parts of ED.

Am considering them again, but they no longer have any offers on.

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
    • Oh dear, hope you are OK, I've had it three times and it was worse each time, but not a patch on many of those who got it before they vac' role out. Not commenting on the discussion as I got confused many days ago beyond the reminder that Corbyn would not compromise and the harm that could lead to him, the party and regards Brexit pre and post referendum the country.  Starmer goes too far the other way at times.
