Price
Pros:
"A very good place for an affordable haircut."
"Booked an appointment to make sure I didn’t have to wait, £6 more than a walk in but still really cheap!"
"Love the crop shop, it's extremely busy so you might have to wait, the prices are very reasonable and the hairdressers are very experienced."
"Most walk in appointments are £15 and excellent value for money and I can understand the popularity of this salon as many people were waiting for their turn as I left."
"Great haircut for £15, especially given my cut was on a Saturday morning."
"You can book appointments and other treatments are available, such as colouring. All are good value for money."
"Excellent value for money."
Cons:
"Had a colour highlights done here. On website it said one price. The hairdresser then proceeded to charge me £20 more than stated."
"Went in on Thursday morning for a colour, which was £38, got charged £50 without being informed of the price increase until after the blow dry and style was done."
"I booked online being told a set price. When I arrived they advised me not to book online as it's incorrect and I was given a different hairdresser."
"I walked out paying £22 for what seems like a wash & blow dry. Won't recommend & won't go back."
Cleanliness
Pros:
"Thorough covid hygiene measures in place with screens around all stylist and wash stations."
Cons:
"The amount of hair on the floor was disgusting."
"As an observer I found the place to be very dirty, cramped, hot and didn’t feel particularly professional."
"To which I then noticed how appalling disgusting the entire area was."
"The place was just dirty and hair brushes were full of previous clients hair, and nobody there apparently knows how to sweep a floor either."
"Conditions are appalling, the equipment is unsanitary and none of the towels actually get washed between clients."
"The salon, however, is absolutely FILTHY."
"The place is really, really dirty, please clean the stations and tools."
Customer Service
Pros:
"I really enjoyed my experience at the crop shop."
"No complaints about the staff - the girl who did my hair did a great job."
"Paul is not just the most skilful hair stylist but the most approachable, respectful and friendly."
"On a positive note, I have to say the stylist who was doing my hair was really professional and friendly. His people skills were absolutely excellent."
"Everyone busy busy, friendly and smile & have a chat with you."
"Excellent customer service, super friendly, clean atmosphere and the lady I had (Emma) was really good with helping me decide how short I wanted to cut my hair/what would be a good hairstyle for my lifestyle. :D"
"The staff are understanding, caring and extremely helpful."
Cons:
"Owner/ host is extremely rude. I was waiting for my friend and he made me very uncomfortable and unwelcome."
"Walked in and was told it would be a half an hour to 30/45 minute wait. Hour and 15 later I finally get seen."
"To get a text saying I was double booked, so I got postponed."
"Really bad experience. I'm an international student and my English is not very good. I was trying my best to explain but that woman barber was so rude that she kept blaming my slow and a bit unclear explanation and got angry."
"Didn’t even want to put one star! Specifically telephoned the shop today to ask if I need an appointment...was informed no, come in anytime we are open until 7. Get there at 5, having driven in from Aylsham, to be told no staff sorry and would I like to make an appointment!"
"Rude and lazy staff. Arrived at 6.15 asked for a hair cut only to be told no as they were closing at 7pm."
"The manager is an absolute bully. He has picked on staff in front of customers and has reduced some of them to tears."
