KEI HAIR STUDIO
Clients who'd sat with the director for years followed him to this small studio. The stylists talk you through the whole cut, which won't suit you if you'd rather sit in silence. Most of the work is cuts and colour, though they perm, rebond and put hair up for events. Someone brings tea and a biscuit to your chair.
Come here if
- You've never had colour, or haven't had a cut in years, and feel nervous
- A past colour left your hair blotchy or brittle
- You're getting married and want your colour sorted first
Maybe not if
- You want to walk in without booking
- Small talk in the chair wears you out

What guests come here for
What people say
They explain what they are doing
At the start, the stylist goes through your photos with you and talks about what will suit your hair and face.
Styling it at home
Before you leave, they ask which tools you have at home and show you how to blow-dry the cut with them.
You get what you asked for
Bring a photo and that's the cut, or the colour, you leave with.
With no picture to show, describe what you want and the director keeps asking questions while he cuts until it matches.
Patient, unhurried staff
Book the last slot of the day and the stylist will still go over the same section more than once, changing a little each time.
Your first visit
On a first colour, the stylist checks you're happy with the shade before mixing it, and again once it's on.
If it's been years since your last cut, they take your questions before they pick up the scissors.
Hair that needs fixing
They even out patchy dye and over-bleached ends left by other salons.
If your hair is too fragile for more bleach, they'll steer you to a colour that doesn't need it.
Weddings and events
Bridal makeup studios and a gown shop send brides here to get their colour right before the wedding.
On the day, they put up the bride's hair and the bridesmaids'.
