Ellie in Upper Richmond Road and ask for Shah. 020 8780 5444. I have been very happy with her cutting and colouring. Good luck

Well I have tried a few salons in Putney now and in the Autumn decided to give Headmasters a go.  I have been there twice now and had 2 different stylists and have been really pleased with the result both times.  I have a friend who thinks they are good too. I went the one on PHS, not the academy on URR.

Thank you Martine and Jane.

I can highly recommend Headmasters too. I have used the salons in Fulham, Ham, Twickenham and PHS at various times but for the past 20+ years I have been a regular client at the Wimbledon Village branch and my present stylist Jodie is fab.Headmasters is a franchise and all the branches are run along the same lines with the ethos focused on great customer service.

Headmasters is great. If you ring up the morning of, or the evening before you can get a wash & cut for £30 'stand by' appointment with anyone there. I sometimes get someone who would cost £90 for £30!

They do great colour sales as well. Minimum 3 times a year you can get your highlights, lowlights etc done for 50% off the price. Great saving!

I also went to Headmasters and had a very good stylist but then she was promoted to management and was very rarely in the salon. Stand by appointments with anyone there are probably good value but I suppose it depends on whether you prefer to have the same person each time. The advantage is that they get to know your hair. I assume that's the case with you, Sue.

I am very pleased with Sandra at Renee Rose on the corner of URR and Parkfields. She's a sole proprietor so she always does my hair. The salon is not far from me, so it's very convenient.

Yes it is Jane. I've had several stylists at the Village over the years; two left to have babies (very inconvenient lol) but Jodie is now back p/t 👍🏻 and a couple moved elsewhere, but overall the staff tend to stay which is a good sign.

Hello Jane,Thank you so much, but so much, for your suggestion of Shah at Ellie's.  I saw her today and she is absolutely fabulous, as a person and a hairdresser.  Very pleased indeed!I used to go to Headmasters, sometimes in Wimbledon and sometimes in Putney.  I have had incredible staff doing my hair but alas, they all left for whatever reason (one was to return to Scotland).  But I think paying £90 for a cut and blow dry is rather excessive!I had not heard about the sand by appointments - they sound good.
