Cabello Hair & Beauty

"Had a wonderful experience with Angela. Brilliant hair stylist. She was very kind and listened before giving my dry hair an olaplex moisturising treatment, a really neat trim (not easy on my frizzy curly hair recovering from some wonky diy cuts over covid!) I had considered going to a curly hairdresser but I found Angela knew exactly what I wanted and understood the challenges of curly hair completely. The whole experience was really relaxing and the whole team were professional and friendly. A great atmosphere. The prices were reasonable. Left the salon feeling very happy with swishy princess hair! Thank you :)"

"After dreadful experiences at other salons i thought i would try here. We couldn't be happier! Myself and my daughter had our hair cut by Saoirse and Ange and they both did a brilliant job! Polite, helpful and listened and cut both our hairs exactly how we wanted! My son returned a week later and Ange cut his hair and he is extremely happy! Thanks so much both! We’ve finally found a good salon !"

"I’ve been to this salon twice now after my previous hairdresser retired, and at first I was impressed by the professionalism and how seemingly well run it was compared to other salons, but after my latest visit I have completely changed my mind. The first visit I had my hair cut by one of the freelance stylists, Megan, and it went fine, so much that I even recommended her to my sister who also paid her a visit. I decided to come back for my next trim when the time rolled around a few months later with one of their main stylists who I won’t name out of courtesy here but is mentioned favourably in many of these other reviews. I tried to book for a colour and cut but the website booking system doesn’t let you book any colour services other than a consultation, which I’ve already had. I reserved the time for a cut and blow dry and immediately emailed to ask if I could add a colour to my treatment. Waited a few days and received no response. Called up and was told this would be fine only to arrive on the day and the hairdresser tells me she doesn’t have time and this was never communicated to her. I was slightly annoyed but understood she wasn’t to be blamed for the error, so I went ahead with the cut. This is where things started to go wrong. My hair before the last trip to Cabello was a few millimetres off waist length and took a very long time for me to grow. I asked for no more than two inches off. The hairdresser was stone cold and silent throughout the cut, I felt very uncomfortable. She seemed so hurried. When I’d come for my first cut with the freelance stylist she had been attentive to my needs, cut my hair incrementally - a little at first, then a bit more and kept showing me to ask if I wanted more off or was happy. But this hairdresser, whose name begins with B, seemed to cut it all in one go without asking me if things were okay along the way. I was absolutely shocked by how short it was after the cut. She had taken a good 4-5 inches off and I’d never asked for that. I got back to the car and immediately saw my hair was unevenly cut - I’d asked for it all one length but the ends were jagged, some pieces randomly shorter than others and one long piece that she’d clearly overlooked because she was in such a rush to finish - see attached picture. A week has passed now and I washed my hair myself to get it back to its natural texture and I am DEVASTATED. When not straightened, it looks even worse. The ends are uneven and it looks so silly tied up in a ponytail now with that long strand trailing out, and the length is just so shockingly short. I feel devastated that my once-complimented long hair has now been hacked off and it will take me months if not years to gain my length back. All I asked for was an even trim. I don’t know how I can even my hair out now and get a better finish on the ends as I am so hesitant to get anymore cut off. I’ve now read the reviews again and have seen another person mention having an unfavourable experience with this hairdresser too, I wish I had read that before booking but unfortunately I only saw the good ones. Giving 2 stars as my first cut with Megan was good, but the second experience was borderline traumatic and absolutely not worth the £51.50 I paid. It’s a nice salon interior-wise but communication is poor and you definitely need to be careful with which stylist you choose… I’m too scared to get my hair cut for a long time now but next time I will go elsewhere."

"Cabello, well where do I start. Just walked out after having my hair coloured and extensions fitted…and I LOVE it. It’s so refreshing to sit in a salon surrounded some of the most talented people in the business. Not only that, never did I go without a drink, the girls really look after you giving you the best possible glam experience. Highly recommend."
