Ellen Conlin Hair and Beauty

Everyone is very friendly in the salon and you’ll be greeted kindly. Great eyebrow wax and tint! I’ll be back for that but I’m not so sure on the bikini wax and leg wax. There were lots of hairs left after I left. It’s the worst when you get waxed and then have to shave anyway.

This review is based on a recent visit to get my hair cut. I was gifted a voucher for a cut & blow dry from my husband for Christmas as he has used and loves this place for a good few years. Unfortunately I didn’t really like my experience.
For the whole two hours I was there the stylist was trying to sell me other products or services to the point where I felt uncomfortable. In addition to getting my hair cut, I had already opted for a scalp treatment costing £20 and the stylist told me about the matching shampoo & conditioner. I’m pretty used to hair salons trying to sell you pricey products when you are in but this was something else. Even after I said I wasn’t interested she brought the bottles over for me to see, at £20 each for 200ml bottles, that would have been another £40 spend for me. It actually got to the point where she told me my treatment was pretty much useless without buying the additional products. Grrrrrr. The treatment was certainly not explained to be like that when I agreed to it!
A younger girl, Ashley, had applied my treatment, washed my hair etc. and she was lovely.
My actual hair cut was okay, isn’t the best cut I’ve ever had but nothing wrong with it either.
I’m certainly in no rush to go back or recommend after my experience.

I actually signed up to write this for anyone else who’s having a rough time finding a good salon in Glasgow, especially for short hair on women.
After a terrible haircut I got while on vacation, I’ve been suffering through that really awkward short-​but-​growing-​out length. Not only did my stylist listen to my badly worded requests («Could you make it shaggy and bohemian but not cat lady?») but he also somehow managed to give me a cut that makes this terrible length look so cute while I’m growing it out.
Also got my nails done and waxed and the staff were incredibly friendly and fun to chat with even in my post-​classes stupor. The whole salon is really nice and professional. Definitely will be going back and definitely recommend them for anyone looking for a place for hair and beauty in the area.

I’ve had my hair cut here a few times when my flat was across the street. Always easy to pop in without an appointment and they were always able to fit me in that day.
So, when I decided to try a different look, this is where I came. After a chat with the stylist, we agreed some colours (nothing too drastic) and then we were off.
A shampoo, a beer, a cut and colour, then popped under the heater to let it develop (see pic of me with foils in my hair on the business page).
A further trim and style and I was very pleased with the final result.
It wasn’t cheap, and I was there for a few hours having to endure Katy Perry screaming from a small screen next to me throughout — while this didn’t totally ruin the day it could have been better.
And did I mention the dogs? A couple of white fluffy Bichon Frise that frequent the reception desk — über cute!
Too expensive for me to go to every month, but would go back for a change of style and take their advice.
