Blue Tit Peckham Reviews Summary

Stylist Expertise

Pros:

• "She was able to give me exactly what I wanted, making any tweaks I asked for on the way."
• "Leanne gave me a fab balayage on my brown hair, using lighter natural colour already present at the ends of my hair."
• "Michelle was lovely with great advice on the process of lightening my hair without damaging it."
• "Connor was so great, gave me such a fab haircut."
• "Alfie knows exactly what I want, even introduced my mum to him!"
• "Perry did my colours and it was exactly the silvery blonde colour I was hoping for."
• "Millie did my cut and and it was the best hair cut for my style and face shape I’ve had."

Cons:

• "Due to double blow-drying, yanking, ripping and overall rough treatment, my hair has been left damaged."
• "Ultimately, it was clear I would not be able to achieve the look I was hoping for."
• "The balayage is brassy, striped, does not match what it was blending to and has harsh lines at the top."
• "He spent 10 minutes actually cutting it, genuinely the quickest most lazy cut I've ever had and it's come out way shorter than I asked for."
• "The result is uneven, the ends are jagged, and there are random longer and shorter parts, where bits have been missed."
• "The stylist... cut layers in chunky steps rather than graduating through the hair."
• "I felt like the color application was rushed, a bit coarse and honestly sloppy."

Salon Atmosphere

Pros:

• "It was also a super lovely atmosphere throughout the whole appointment - everyone was really friendly and the salon itself is beautiful."
• "The salon has such a nice relaxed atmosphere, and I'm looking forward to coming back!"
• "The whole salon was following really good social distancing procedures, and it felt like a really safe experience, whilst being very luxurious."
• "The salon is beautiful too, very good vibes."
• "Beautiful salon with great vibes and all the staff were so lovely and friendly."
• "The salon itself was lovely and super relaxing."
• "Lovely characterful space, they play punk and new wave, good coffee."

Cons:

• "A hairdressing salon in Peckham that does not deal with afro hair!?! I enquired about getting a shape up for my mixed sons, afro hair - and was told that none of the stylists in the salon work with afro hair!! Disappointing to say the least."
• "I had large patches of dye stains on the back of my neck."
• "I was not given a chance to look at the back of my head with a mirror before being rushed out."
• "I had the dye (dark red) on my fingers and forehead which would have been ignored had I not asked to remove it myself in the salon."
• "The stylist did not know how to detangle wavy hair."
• "I wasn't expecting to look like I'd been growing out a bleach job for 6 months either!"
• "I've had problems with three bookings over the last year."

Value for Money

Pros:

• "Been seeing Alfie since he was training and followed him here, thought I wouldn’t pay more than training prices but Alfie knows exactly what I want."
• "It's a bit pricey but you get what you pay for and it's definitely worth it."
• "I’m always made to feel so at ease and relaxed- gives me so much confidence."
• "Got great service from start to finish from all the other staff too."
• "I always love my hair when I’ve had it done at Bluetit peckham. It’s worth the cost to have colour done there as the stylists are very skilled and attentive to the details."
• "Worth the money, spoilt as soon as you are in the door and added bonus that they work hard to be eco conscious."
• "The best hairdresser in South London! My stylist Silja is very knowledgeable, she has a great understanding of hair types and can give the best advice."

Cons:

• "Something that takes 5 minutes should not be more than a £5 -10 surcharge to my regular appointment."
• "I was told to rebook for ‘clipper cut’ on another day, but I find a £35 price tag for a small triangle patch on the back of my head is frankly overpriced."
• "Beautiful haircut and amazing highlights. Very happy with the result. Only 4 star because it's ridiculously expensive."
• "£51 is very pricey for someone like me."
• "£150+ down the drain!"
• "First time here, defo won't be returning."
• "While they did send a text message as a general reminder for the test, they failed to explicitly convey that it was an essential prerequisite, and failure to comply would result in appointment cancellation."
