Alpha Unisex Hair & Beauty Salon

"I got acrylics done by Abby, and she was so great! The nails were done so nicely and with precision, not rushed. Definitely recommend!"

"I had the worst experience. I got gel nails, and they started chipping the very same night! As if that weren’t enough, most nails started to break in the same week! And gel nails are supposed to protect nails from breaking! I went on a holiday after getting my nails done, so I wasn’t able to go back there and complain about the poorly done nails, or get them removed, I had to watch my nails chipping and breaking. And when I finally got the gel removed, I have notices that my nails were, and still are very weak. I’d never go back to that place again. The staff were nice but I think the product they are using is really cheap."

"Was desperate for a haircut during one of the lowest points of my life. Walked in and had one of the best haircuts (and wash) ever by Aster who was very kind, thorough and skilful. Prices are very affordable, great place to go especially if you are starting out new in London. Lots of love for Aster."

"I should start by saying I have been waiting 6 months to treat myself to a nice pedicure and selected Alpha because they had availability tonight. I Booked an hour long luxury pedicure, but received a 35-minute rush job with no luxury included. First, was told to sit in the massage chair, where a dirty towel was already draped over the foot bath area. I dipped my feet into frigid waters just as I was told to get out of the chair and pick a colour from the selection on the back wall. I awkwardly put my now wet feet back into my sandals and walked over to pick a colour. I was then told, “no, actually, you paid for luxury, so pick one of these” (from the swatch sitting at the chair I had just left). So I picked a colour and sat back down, again dipping my feet into the water that barely covered my feet. I couldn’t sit back in the chair to enjoy the massage settings without pulling my feet out of the water, but they never added more water to make it comfortable for me. Then commenced a very fast, rough, and unpleasant experience -cuticle cutting should not be painful; and typically for ticklish feet there should be some care when grating callouses. Not so at Alpha! No warm towels, no wax, no massage until after my nails were painted, then a very quick 10-second lotion application before declaring “ok, you’re done!” And leaving me to perform a manicure on a woman who had just walked in. Absolutely atrocious service and no way in hell will I be returning."
