Hey hey everybody!

Gosh my final put up was actually Aug 2025?! Sigh! I took an prolonged break from running a blog however I’m again and hope to convey common updates like earlier than!

This yr I wish to check out new salons. While I like Maison type (my regular go to salon) I don’t just like the wait, it’s a small salon so it comes with the territory, nevertheless it simply takes eternally and the close by parking isn’t low cost. Plus, it’s actually in my nature to attempt new issues so this yr I’m bringing again my salon collection and I’ve 3 salons in thoughts I wish to go to.

At every new salon I will probably be going for my regular hair companies: wash, remedy, blow-dry and trim when wanted. I’ll then evaluation the salon and buyer companies.

My first salon of the yr was Elevate based mostly in Brixton. Ive been contemplating this place for a very long time! Again in 2025 after I was desirous about texture releases, it was between Elevate and Maison type and the one motive I went with the latter was as a result of the top stylist there had finished it herself and had so many informational movies on it.

Elevate have 2 areas in Brixton which is about 5 minutes stroll aside. I didn’t drive this time however its proper within the coronary heart of Brixton, I noticed some aspect roads for parking however there’s additionally a number of automobile parks close to by. I received there on time for my app and I used to be proven to a chair immediately! The primary stylist came visiting for a mini session and Latisha the stylist I had booked additionally came visiting for the session. I used to be given some recommendation and a few new product suggestions. I beloved she didn’t simply say to cease every thing and change however to complete them and check out the brand new merchandise(I’ve had that earlier than)! She additionally requested for the merchandise she really useful for use for my shampoo and remedy and I LOVE that! I received to check the merchandise proper there and then- that is one thing I’ve by no means had earlier than.

After a radical wash, I sat underneath the dryer for 20 minutes, was rinsed then again to the chair for my blow-dry. There was a brief wait between the rinse and the beginning of the blow-dry nevertheless it was very brief most likely about 15 minutes or so. ( I’ve waited longer). Blow-dry was light, no extreme warmth or pulling. My hair was trimmed- I didn’t want a lot taken off then I used to be finished

The entire service took about 2 hours and I used to be proud of the truth that there wasn’t loads of ready time in between companies.

My solely situation is that I used to be informed as a result of it was my first go to to the salon, it’s classed as a minimize slightly than a trim I consider that added about an additional £10 to my total- unsure why as a result of it was a trim ???

General verdict

Will I go to once more? Sure, my stylists had been welcoming and educated and I didn’t have to attend round an excessive amount of.  I went on a Friday afternoon, the salon was busy, however I discovered the service to be environment friendly. I like that I received to check out the really useful merchandise , she used the Loreal Absolute Molecular Restore (black packaging) which I’ve simply bought. I beloved how gentle and good my hair felt, even the stylist caught me enjoying with my hair LOOL.

It appeared to be vibe in there. Music and jokes between the stylists made it a pleasant ambiance. Drinks and snacks had been provided which had been a pleasant contact. I might suggest Elevate and I’ll return

This put up could be very late lmao. I went to Elevate in January , wrote the evaluation however by no means received spherical to posting.

Ive already been to the 2nd place on my record twice and I’ll put up the evaluation shortly
