Review of Toni and Guy

Despite being quite image-conscious, I'd never really gone to a professional hair salon before (apart from Saks for some layers) - instead choosing to stick to my local ones which has always done right by me. However, after noticing how good the hair of two of my best friends - one male and one female - I asked them where they had their hair cut and styled and both replied 'Toni&Guy'. Toni&Guy are a chain of hairdressers - very well-known throughout ...
...cutting the hair of male and female customers. They also have their own brand of hair products that are quite cheap and are readily available in Boots stores/supermarkets etc. With such a good reputation and when my locks became too long and tired and basically in desperate need of a chop 6 months or so later (after a move from Telford where my friends were to Bristol/Bath), I decided to pick up the phone and try out Toni&Guy. I was aware that they ...

Review of Toni and Guy

...virtues of my hairdressing salon, Toni and Guy. I’ve had some bad experiences in the past with hairdressers – there was the time the hairdresser who came to our house when I was about 12 made me look like a mole, and the time when I went to a new hairdresser who’d just come back to work after her mum had died and cried the whole time she blow-dried. Because of this, I had a bit of a phobia for a while, and used to have long hair, and cut it myself ...
...THE HAIR WASH Toni and Guy are well known for their washes, and rightly so. The products always smell amazing, and once again the juniors are helpful and friendly. The stylist tells the junior exactly what to use, and then leaves them to it. You always seem to get two shampoos, and then a gentle head massage with the conditioner. The massage bit always relaxes me, sometimes even making me nod off if I’ve had a hard day – however, I must admit it ...

Review of Toni and Guy

...has made me think of Toni and Guy's. I'm, not sure if I'll be going to them this time, for around £40 a snip, it's not really something I like to be spending on just for a trim. I have basic straight long dark hair, so really, unless I'm going to change it or have something special done I think it's money better spent elsewhere. The last time I visited, I think I was having a bad hair day and thought I looked like someone from Halloween with all ...

...again, at 16 with a Toni and Guy's Stylist who just wouldn't listen to what I wanted at all!!! I left with big, bouffant, backcombed US soap star hair, which surprisingly didn't suit a 5 foot nothing school girl! 2/ I also hate people coming up to me on the street and trying to sell me stuff! So, it was a very bizarre and unusual set of circumstances that found me this morning sitting in the Toni and Guy Training Academy on New Oxford Street, acting ...

The guy introduced himself as Rob, and explained that he was in his 3rd year of hairdressing and currently working on his diploma at the Academy, (just round the corner in New Oxford Street) and was looking for people willing to model particular cuts for him to be assessed on. Now as I have already said I really dislike being stopped on the street, but this pair were so friendly ...

Review of Toni and Guy

Toni & Guy I have visited a few of Toni & Guy salons, so I now feel that I can write this review. In 1963 Toni & Guy first salon opened in Clapham London. From there on in, there was no stopping them, nearly every big town has one. If I am correct they also have or are expanding abroad. If you have visited 1 or more Toni & Guy salon’s you will notice that they are all the same, from the chairs to the sinks, the walls to the floor. Each salon is ...

I then moved to Dorset, but Essex seemed to far from here. I tried the Bournemouth branch which was 30 minutes away. I asked for a top stylist which I was told I got. I got my hair cut; I asked for a trim my inch not yours, as I have curly/wavy hair. 2 ...

Review of Toni and Guy

The stylish look of toni & guy in the high streets and the good looking people that came out every time I passed, always seemed a unattainable for a few years for me. That is, until I read a few reviews in ciao, and decided to take the advice of asking to be a model for a trainee. At first I was weary of this, having had a bad haidressing experience a week before (see my saks review), I was not too keen in putting my hair in the hands of a trainee. ...
...it's how it works in toni & guy. So she was very experienced. Also I was offered a drink and a magazine when I first sat down on the cutting chair. The orange juice was actual orange juice! Weeee Treatment Really, I was expecting to be treated differently and more cheaply than the other clients that paid the high prices. But this was not the case at all. I was treated like a valuable client, all for GBP8. Obviously I booked another appointment ...

Review of Toni and Guy

Booking the appointment I have had long hair since forever and after some recent depressing bad hair days decided enough was enough it was time for a radical restyle. After my lovely hubby offered to pay for my new look I popped into my local Tony and Guy to see what they had to offer. Now, I am not a great fan of Salons - usually opting for my mum's mobile hairdresser to pop round to give me the odd trim once a year - yes I am that bad at keeping ...
...Guy was a somewhat nerve racking experience. My intention was just to pick up a price list, take it home and have a think about what I wanted and then probably leave my hair as it was. When I waliked in I was greated by a friendly receptionist who politely informed me that they had run out of price cards but that she could run through prices with me. After explaining that I wanted a complete restyle she explained that the price was the same for ...

Review of Toni and Guy

...hair salon in the UK, Toni & Guy. ***The salon*** The salon was nicely air conditioned and cozy. At the entrance there were leather couches on which customers could wait for their stylists. The salon itself was spacious and clean. The only annoying thing about the whole get-up was the danceclub music playing in the background, which I suppose is part of the 'trying to be hip' generation. While I hated that part of it, some other customers might ...
...me the whole range of Toni & Guy products. She simply asked if I wanted to purchase any products. When I said 'no', she was absolutely fine with that. From previous salon experiences I know that they generally attempt to relieve your wallet of all its contents and max out your credit card in the process. The shocker, however, was the bill. A simple wash, cut and blow-dry of easy-to-cut straight hair, a job that took less than 40 minutes, came to ...

...their time. I went into Toni & Guy to get a price card as I knew this was an upmarket salon, thinking maybe they could help me out. I was welcomed into the spotless salon by smiles from happy staff, which is always a good start. The prices appeared quite high, but looking at the salon, its workers (who had perfect hair themselves) and the reputation the company owns, I thought it was reasonable. Booking I booked the next day by phone and ...
...asked if I had used Toni & Guy before, I couldn't quite understand the motives behind this question, but whatever. Unfortunately, the embarrassment of my then current hair cut was really getting to me, I needed to get it fixed quick, and 3 weeks was too long to wait. I phoned up again next day to rearrange my appointment for 3 days later. In the past I have had nasty attitude from snappy workers when phoning up at other places. This didn't happen ...

Review of Toni and Guy

my daughter is 11 and wanted her hair cut, as we are not the type that bothers with hairdressers I decided that my hair cutting abilities were not up to the challenge of doing her hair completely different - I also decided that I wanted to go to a good hairdresser and given I had no idea of a good one from a bad one I went for one with a reputable name so, we booked for tony and guy with the hair consultant, she was lovely and had a good understanding ...
...that a fringe would be good and some layers, cutting a lot of the lenght off - the hair cut was fab, very well done and my daughter felt like a princess in there, she came out grinning - I however was not smilling after spending £75 on the haircut, a bottle of shampoo, a bottle of conditioner and some sea spray - I have no idea why I bought them, I am usually very strong to turn down products like when you go into a shoe shop and they try to sell ...

Review of Toni and Guy

...regular customer of my local Toni & Guy going every 6-8 weeks for my cut and highlights. Initially I was very happy with the results as I achieved the colour I wanted and my cut had more style to it than it had done for a long time. I have long curly hair and it has a tendency to look hippyish when loose so Toni & guy gave me more shape. On each return my hair became more and more light blonde until it looked like a full colouring rather than highlights. ...
...since I’ve been going to Toni & Guy. This isn’t a problem that I had with other salons. Toni & Guy have a factory approach to hairdressing in that you get different people doing cut, wash and colouring. Your hairdresser may also be dealing with several clients at once. I just felt like I wasn’t being taken care of enough and the price was simiarl to salons where you get individual attention – somewhere in the region of £100 ...

Review of Toni and Guy

...treated myself to going into Toni and Guy’s in the town centre of Hastings. I made an appointment and off I went. The reason I went there was because I was unloved. Ahhh. Nobody wanted to make me feel good about myself, so I was going to have to enhance my appearance so that I’d feel good about myself. As I walked in I was greeted by a funky lady behind the counter, which itself was rather funky. Wouldn’t mind a shorter version as a coffee table, ...
...and she asked me to take a seat. I had a look around, everything was spotless, more to the point, everything was hairless. There were people being served by other people, sat there in front of massive wooden-framed mirrors with shelves in the sides. Some of the customers were just discussing what they wanted with their stylist, others were chatting away as their hair was trimmed with precision, while others still were having their heads massaged ...

Review of Toni and Guy

-My Hair History- Having had a 'Rachel' about 10 years ago and keeping the same style in varying lengths and shades of brown ever since, I decided that my hair needed a bit of pick up. I would generally head to one of a variety of local salons that charge in the region of 25 quid for a wash, cut and dry or 17 for a wash and cut. On these occasions the cut would generally rid me of split ends but I get a constant echo (and have done since I can remember) ...
...soooo much of it, and despite asking for advice and ideas on how to thin it out and take the weight out of it, I invariably end up with the same cut wherever I go. It needed cutting and I wanted it colouring and I wanted somewhere that would sit down and discuss this with me. -My Experience- I nipped into the Toni&Guy salon in my local town centre on a Saturday afternoon and asked for a consultation. I was asked to return a few hours later as ...
