Kuki Hair on Bellenden rd

Another vote for Kuki.

I have been going there for years. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Loads of recommendations on here, if you do a search.

I have only ever had Shingo, the owner, but to the best of my knowledge everyone else there  is very good.

I’ve been there a few times in the past.  It’s shocking to me that a woman’s haircut is £20 more than a man’s - £40 vs £60.

Charlotte Cave on Blackwater St, East Dulwich SE22 8SD Award-Winning colourists. They have just opened up their ED branch.

The entire team can be trusted, unlike other local salons (won't mention the others that have totally destroyed my hair over the years).

Just go to a professional:

I imagine this is because of the average  additional time involved, due to the styles.

You could have asked the reason?

I will ask, next time I'm in there. 

Many salons have this differential pricing.

I use Adam in Forest Hill (opposite the swimming pool)

Another recommendation for Adam on the Dartmouth Road. Have been going there for years. I will never go anywhere else (unless I move home to somewhere far away!)

No faff, very reasonal price and nice atmosphere 👍

What is the name of his business/salon?

Azalea, it is Hair & Beauty at 79 Dartmouth Road, Forest Hill. Next door to the Alex TLC charity shop and opposite side to Forest Hill pools.

The salon used to be further up the road towards FH station but moved to current location a few years ago.

Closed on Mondays and Sundays.

Phone number is 02086992020

My sister also goes to Adam, for cuts and colours/tints.

If you choose to go there, tell him that Sue (and Jenni) recommended him 😉

Thanks so much for the information. I called Adam and he sounds extremely lovely and  I asked what his hair cut prices are.  They too sound extremely lovely if you are on a budget and are more than fifty percent cheaper than the places quoted on this thread.

To be fair, it depends on the style you want, what texture of hair you have and  how much of a precision cut the style needs.

I have very thin fine hair (or did have, before it started going grey) and it needs a really excellent cut to make it look good.

I'm on a pension, but I don't mind paying more for a cut which I know will make me feel good.

Shingo at Kuki works wonders (though I'm presently growing my hair in preparation for a particular style, so if anyone knows me please don't judge his talents by my present "halfway" cut!)

I think it's a matter of trying people out until you find someone who suits you and your hair. If that person is also relatively cheap, then that's great!

I've had some truly awful cuts over the decades, and in the past whenever I found someone good, they at some point moved on,  and (a bit like dentists) you could never find out where they had gone.

At least Shingo owns the salon, so is unlikely to leave!

 A friend went to an ED hairdressers and was charged £40 for a trim only with no wash.

That sounds extremely expensive!

Where was it?  Why did they not wash the hair?

Was that the advertised price, for a trim (not a restyle?)  with no wash?

    • So stop all transferring of funds out of the UK. Have you had a thought as to why people may be doing this, they've had enough of thieving Reeves and want to protect their funds, hence moving it over sea's and out of the reach of Reeves. The 26th November will come around really quickly, then we'll become aware of what other actions Reeves is planning on taking to plunder all of us. The pot is only so deep and you can't get blood out of a stone. She'll actually create more austerity if she continues with her tax grabs. Rather than doing that, spend on essentials and not vanity projects. The employers NI hike has had a detrimental effect with employers reducing vacancies and shedding labour. Does she not see that business creates growth and not the Government directly. Her, Starmer, Streeting, Lammy and the rest of that motley crew need booting out of Government and be replaced by Badenoch and Stride who will stop the rot. Before Starmer and crew came into office inflation was down to 2%, since then month on month it's increased to somewhere around 3.8% and is expected, nay predicted, to reach in excess of 5% at the current rate. as a result employment will further increase and that has to be paid for through DWP. We are being gradually crippled by Reeves.   
    • Which think tank?  Why no link to what they have to say?
    • If not taxing remittances, then something should be about reducing the scale of these remittances. It represents negative investment in the UK to the amount estimated to be £28 billion p.a. That's equivalent to half the UK defence budget at a time when the fiscal deficit is massive and increasing. It is a crisis. The last time there was a crisis similar to this was in the post war period. For 3 decades post ww2, the UK enforced strict exchange control measures. These were designed to conserve foreign currency reserves, particularly U.S. dollars, which were vital for post-war recovery. The system restricted the movement of money abroad and tightly controlled foreign investment, overseas travel allowances, and imports. British citizens needed official permission to externalise funds. Exchange controls reflected the economic difficulties of the time, including balance-of -payments pressures.
