  The hairdressers always advise me on what is best for what I want and what is best for my hair (and how this impacts the long term condition/maintenance of my hair) rather than telling me everything I should do. Also, after colouring or toning my hair always feels super healthy. I could use semi permanent dyes bought from the shops to tone but they never work as well and always seem to damage my hair, whereas Hobbs seem to use really high quality products so I don't mind paying a little more. The salon also has a fun and friendly vibe.

  I had been searching for a new hairdresser and saw Hobbs had excellent reviews, so I booked with Doug - thinking he would surely be a great hairdresser. I showed him photos and tried to explain what I wanted but he was not very interested. He said "people usually trust me to make those decisions" he didn't give me the haircut I asked for - it was 1-2 inches longer than I wanted. I politely asked for more off, but he insisted saying I could come back again free of charge. It looked bad but i judged that returning would likely be super-awkward and might not end up getting what i wanted again- he had a friendly manner but also was also very confident that he knows better than the customer. I found it condescending. When I got to the register the woman told me it was going to cost extra because it was my first visit. £71. What a waste of money. To top it off, it was such a bad haircut I was teased by my co-workers a few weeks later as it grew out to be even worse.
