Vidal Sassoon School of HairdressingNewest Review: ... there are teachers there every step of the way and you are only given what you can handle, so the students who have been there for longer will get the more difficult haircuts and the ones who haven't been there as long will get the so called easy cuts, so please don't have any worries about going there as it is very professional and no more risk in my opinion than going to any ordinary salon. ... more |

I've been to this school 3 times and each time I promised myself to not return and always I get fooled by reading some good reviews online on this forum and I feel like maybe its just me who has this horrible experience each time. Those novices combing your hair a zillion tiimes to get one section right is horrifying while you are sitting there with a sore bum for 4 hours. I am begining to doubt most reviews now. I just want to put in my two cent finally, its worth it to spend 20 pounds at a proper salon rather than 12 pounds at the sassoon trainee school. I'd rather get a haircut once in 2 months, than every month but go to a proper salon from now on.
Wish you all best!

Just wanted to say that i trained in the vidal sassoon school of hairdressing, and to say that having something radical 'isn't worth the risk' is ridiculous, there are teachers there every step of the way and you are only given what you can handle, so the students who have been there for longer will get the more difficult haircuts and the ones who haven't been there as long will get the so called easy cuts, so please don't have any worries about going there as it is very professional and no more risk in my opinion than going to any ordinary salon. Also just for your information (having been a hairdresser for almost 8 years now) cutting a long hair straight is sometimes ... Read the complete review

I have been visiting the Vidal Sassoon Hair School in Davies Mews for about 5 years. For most visits, I have been pleased with my haircut but occasionally it has gone very wrong as it did yesterday. My hair was cut badly, the technician asked the student to correct the cut and it ended up being so short that it is uncomfortable to sleep on. Be warned, do not be afraid to speak up. It may only be £12 for a cut but you have to live with the result until it grows AND, although you are made to feel you have given up the right , IT IS STILL YOUR HAIR!!

My sister and I both needed our hair sorting out and with little money to spend decided we would make perfect models. We chose Vidal sassoon because of their reputation and we knew they would use decent products. After booking our appointment we went along to the school, which is just off of Bond Street. You go in and it is really small, pay your money £20 for highlights and I think a cut is about £5.00. Then you are given a card and have to wait until you are called, there are lots of trendy students walking around the place. When its time to go up you get separated into your groups and led up 1000s of stairs to these rooms and then you wait to be picked by the ... Read the complete review

I went to Davies Mews yesterday (10/04/08) and everyone - including the Australian hairdressing student who washed and cut my hair to the instructor - was pleasant. I came out with a good hair cut at a bargain price. No complaints! And neither should anyone else dare to complain, or make a big song and dance about the experience.
