HAIR BY MASTERS 251 Elgin Avenue, London W9 1NJ

"Very happy with my hair cut by Figen. Very skilled and careful like a true artist."

"I almost rarely write reviews online, but I feel like the reviews for this hair salon do it no justice. I go here every 4 or so months to cut my hair and they always do a great job. Although you can only pay in cash, the prices are very reasonable for a wash/cut/dry for living in London. Anthony and the others are also very fast when cutting my hair which I appreciate. You won't see me at any other salon in London!"

"I love this salon. Jess does my shellac mani pedi and it lasts me at least 3 weeks! She is so meticulous and friendly. I have also had a few facials with DOA and its made such a difference to my skin! I go to the salon every two weeks without fail! Highly recommend :)"

"I had a normal manicure with normal polish. The woman was nice but a bit patronising. She removed my existing nail varnish, filed and buffed my nails, applied cuticle oil and then soaked my hands in water. She then helped me choose a colour and applied this on top of a base coat, and then added a top coat. My nails were dried using a nail dryer. There was not a wide range of colours to choose from, mostly reds and pinks. The top coat was applied in a rush meaning that it did not cover the whole nail. When I noticed a chip, the woman blamed me for touching something but I think this was caused by applying the top coat too quickly. I probably would not visit this salon again for a manicure. The salon was downstairs of a hair salon and seemed clean and tidy. *Edit* Changing my review from 3 star to 1 star because my nail chipped in less than 12 hours! And all the varnish came off another nail the next day! Very disappointed."

"The best hairdressers in the town!!! I have been really lucky to be one of the first customers that entered the salon when first open after many unsuccessful attempts in trying to find a good hairdresser. I don't normally trust places after bad experiences however as this was very decent and lovely looking saloon I decided to try. I have not been disappointed, in fact I will never go anywhere else, they are seriously the best! My hair are in the best condition ever (thanks to Anthony:)) and I feel like at home there. Always so friendly and so accommodating. Also so flexible and understanding. From color, haircut to having special requests ( had couple of formal balls to attend) they have been outstanding, and me just being complemented so very happy ;) I have recommended this place to couple of my friends and they love it as much as I do. I would highly recommend to try as you will not be disappointed. Thank you so much to All at the saloon, seriously love you guys :)"
