Advantages: fashionable

Disadvantages: expensive service and cuts vary wildly

Toni and Guy can be quite hit and miss. It is a very large chain of hair salons which pitch themselves to the modern young women who want up to date well cut hair. This can depend on where you go - I have found soho, portsmouth and clapham toni and guys excellent - they gave me exactly what i wanted, cut in well fringes from long hair and gave me a maintainable style which whilst fashionable was not too funky for my job (which interestingly two both asked for before cutting). However, Stevenage, Wimbledon and WGC gave poor cuts - i felt the staff had done their training but were not managed well - all individuals came out with a few "set" cuts the team seemed able to do and I would hazard a guess the management were not too demanding of the standards their staff gave. I think the morale of the story with Toni and Guy is go to one in an area where fashionable people are, where there is a lot of "trendy hairdressers" for competition and where you get a good reception manner; other wise you just end up with an overpriced average cut you could have paid 20 pounds for elsewhere.

Summary: An easy choice if you cant be bothered to hunt a smaller one down
