Salim is the most reliable hairstylist I’ve been to; from the moment I sit in his chair, I can fully trust him to work his magic and he never fails to deliver. Couldn't recommend him enough!

I found Salim through google so it’s only right that I post my experience. I’ve seen him 4 times now and every time I walk out with the perfect haircut. He knows my hair better than I do (in the best way) and knows exactly how to cut it. I have a lot of hair and it can get big and frizzy but Salim knows exactly how to cut it to make it look fabulous. I come every two months because I just love the feeling I get with my new haircut. If you have thick, middle eastern hair Salim should be your go to.

This was my first time having my hair cut by Salim, and he was wonderful! I went in wanting a change, and he knew exactly what haircut would work best with my facial shape and lifestyle. It was clear he knew what he was doing as he cut my hair. My hair turned out phenomenal, but Salim was also so friendly and lovely to chat with. I will for sure be returning!
