I see Becky for a massage here regularly, and have done for years, and it's fantastic! Including pregnancy and post natal and hot stone. Can't recommend Becky enough.

Thanks Carmen, will pass on your kind words.

Had a great haircut at Shine today - my hairdresser was Marius who listened to what I wanted, but also made his own suggestions. I last visited here more than 15 years ago when I lived nearby. Really happy that Shine is still around and I'll definitely be back.

Thanks Kaye, we will pass on your message to Marius. We are very glad to still be around and we look forward to welcoming you back again soon.

Went for massage with Beth who was amazing. She listened to what I needed. Have had many underwhelming massages but she did back, arms and head releasing tension and left me feeling brilliant. Would highly recommend when you feel in need of some care.

Thank you Francesca. Beth is amazing and we are so grateful that you took the time to share that.

Loved Benedetta and the davines products.

On more than one occasion I have made a hair apt here and it’s been cancelled at short notice - really unprofessional.

Lesley - a year ago - Review Provided by Google Maps

Hello Lesley, I am sorry to hear you were cancelled today, I have spoken with the stylists and receptionist. Unfortunately Daniela needs more than 1 hour to do your service and so requested the reception team to try and move you to a longer appointment time. Unfortunately these things can sometimes happen when clients book online at the last minute. Had you called, there is a not on your profile asking the reception to always allow 90minutes for your haircut. Unfortunately our booking system is not advanced enough to know this.

Response from the ownera year ago

Knocking stars off for recent bad experiences, including a haircut that was confirmed over email which actually wasn't booked in (wasted trip to a difficult part of town to get to, with no real apology). I've come here for both massages and haircuts (cut'n'colour). It's very clean, with a tray of mini-pastries at the weekend, a great selection of fashion and design mags, and the staff are universally friendly. Angela, who does my hair, is lovely, and seems to really get what I'm after - I usually leave feeling great, with my long straight hair how I want it. Also sells Aveda products, although these tend to be pricey.... (Show more)

Went for a massage - excellent. Skilled practitioner who responded to my needs. Went back for a haircut. Both times, text and email alerts were gratefully received. Smiley, helpful staff. Excellent haircut, friendly attitude, good chat! I'll be back.

I have been going there since the last two years, I love this local place as their team is lovely, the practitioners are amazing ( I had great treatment and some help me recover after injuries) and the prices are really decent.

Thanks Marion.

Response from the owner2 years ago

I have been going here for nearly ten years because they offer superb services at extremely reasonable prices. I would also say they also go above and beyond for their clients. I've had several hair stylists and beauticians in the past many years and every single one was fabulous. Fantastic rapid and clear communication, and always a warm welcome.... (Show more)

Thanks so much for the lovely review Jo, always a pleasure

Response from the owner2 years ago

Have been going here for years and the ladies are lovely and the services always a high standard. Sad that so many had to leave because of the pandemic and brexit but still keeps a good quality and it’s a great local place.

Hi Elise, thanks for your kind words, brexit and Covid have been tough on us but we are doing our best to survive.

Only shopped here the shampoos and had a massage here (with Beth) who was excellent!

Julia Hoffmann - 2 years ago - Review Provided by Google Maps

Thanks Julia, Beth is one of our favs also.

Response from the owner2 years ago

Have had a few good haircuts here over the years by stylists who have seemed to left, but yesterday’s was the worst cut I’ve had for £70 and all I wanted was a trim.. sadly wont be returning.

Leanne Nguyen - 2 years ago - Review Provided by Google Maps

Great services but unfortunately have to mark down for totally over the top Covid practices. Asking patrons to use a new, disposable mask is extremely wasteful and unnecessary. Taking temperature was also deemed inaccurate ages ago for knowing if someone has Covid. I’m mostly concerned about the excess waste though.... (Show more)

World ThroughWine - 3 years ago - Review Provided by Google Maps

To mark us down (as you say) because of your opinion of our covid measures seems rather odd. Our measures are stated clearly on our website and in the communication you receive pre your appointment. We have a large team who we stay in close communication with around their realities. Our teams have chosen to keep measures in place until we are confident doing so is of no benefit to the wider community. We have vulnerable staff and clients and as a close contact business we have taken our responsibility seriously. None of us like wearing masks for 8 hours a day but we do so to protect the vulnerable around us. As a business who has spent thousands protecting itself and been hit incredibly hard financially by this pandemic, your review is harmful and unkind, your opinion is yours and you are welcome to it, but it is just that, an opinion. From someone who does not need to take into consideration the entirety of our business reality.

Great salon, fantastic hair dressers and very safe covid rules.

My first time visit to the salon. Unfortunately, it was a very lukewarm experience. The receptionist deserves 5* as as she very kind, welcoming and generally attentive. Sadly, my hairstylist had no opinions on his own. I came in to discus my new colour and hear what he thinks about it. He didn’t even checked my hair quality, structure, the colour before wash. No comb through to see the scalp. He had nothing to say. Nothing to recommend me. There was no discussion. Not even bloody shampoo to offer me. I was so willing to spend money and have a finally done some rewarding treatment after hard work. He was nice and polite, don’t take me wrong but I expect from the stylist a bit of creativity, opinions and advises through my visit. I was not even offered a water no he did not massage my head which I was so looking forward to it (that was the worst of all). He did a decent cut but blow dry was a bit boring. I wanted a nice volume but received just a generic blow dry (picture is taken right after visit). It was a bit rushed (salon wasn’t busy). Just nothing special. I would not recommend it. There was no difference between £25 cut in Turkish hair salon or this £69 one.... (Show more)

Hello, I am sorry to hear your experience was less than you would have expected. I would very much like to understand more, who you saw, where you feel it should have been better. Please feel free to contact me personally Carla@shineholistic.co.uk Carla

Fantastic cut, they really took the time to work out what I wanted. The setting and ethics are also wonderful. Everything has been really researched and planned.
