John Frieda Hair Salon London (Mayfair)

I was in serious need of a good hair cut and can only confirm all the positive reviews posted about the John Frieda salon in Mayfair. Joel did a brilliant job and I have really 'difficult' hair. The service was first-rate and very friendly. If you are looking for a makeover or simply a cut that holds and is easy to maintain, don't look any further - just ask for Joel.

I'm so surprised to see so many good reviews! Myself and a colleague have both had awful service at this place. The cut was mediocre and cost the best part of £90! Awful, awful, awful.

I've been a model for cut, colour and blowdry at the John Frieda salon in Mayfair. Cameron was brilliant, friendly and very professional. Am very satisfied - she brought my hair back to life.

I had my second hair cut with Joel at the Mayfair salon and can honestly say that my hair has never been cut and styled better.
He is fantastic - really got my personality right. Thank you Joel.

I just joined UrbanPath's newsletter and was surprised (or not) to see John Frieda listed. I've been going to the salon for 20 years. As another reviewer mentioned, always good to see the same faces. Simply the best hair salon I've experienced in the UK or USA. So professional, inviting, and yet relaxed. The hair products only get better and better. Kudos to all the very skilled stylists (and juniors), particularly Darren. I end up feeling on top of the world when I depart JF and it far exceeds my expectations every time.

Nadia knows exactly how to cut my hair perfectly, and not only that she actually can blow dry hair so that you really don't want to change it when you walk out of the door. I'd recommend her to anyone.

Wow! I just had my hair cut by Andreas, the German guy. I had a very fixed idea about what I wanted, but we had a consultation and he suggested styles I never even considered for myself. I ended up leaving the salon with something completely different than I had envisaged when walking in there, but feeling a million dollars! I will so go back. That Andreas is worth his weight in gold.

Like the previous reviewer, I have been going to Lesley for over 12 years and find her receptive, good company and an excellent stylist (it is a regular event that I'm stopped in the street or in a shop to ask who cuts my hair) but I was always too nervous to have it coloured. Finally, I did and the results are amazing (ask for Bena) - natural, not too yellow and she wove 3 different colours to make my hair have 'depth'.

I've been going to the Mayfair salon since 1990. I find it reassuring to see the same faces still there after all these years and love seeing the juniors progress to stylists. Lesley has been cutting my hair for longer than I care to remember and I cannot recommend her too highly.

Have had great haircuts and blow-drys there. I particularly recommend Paul. Was VERY disappointed, however, by the colourist - hideous highlights which did not look natural at all and did not 'age' very well (very visible roots after only a few weeks). But definitely go for a haircut or blow-dry!

Nadia is absolutely brilliant for curly hair, especially if you let her do what she wants. I wouldn't trust anybody else with my locks and I always get a lot of comments on my haircut. Really, she's one of a kind.

The way they colour, everyone looks like a 45-year-old Stepford wife!

Booked in for a quick blow-dry, but was attended to by Martin, who persuaded me to have a shampoo and set. Well, ladies, he's certainly a dab hand with the rollers and tail comb, and in a matter of minutes I was reading Vogue under the dryer. He then returned to give me a lovely comb-out and finish. Got lots of compliments that evening. Give him a try.

Just called to book, having read these reviews, and was casually put 'on hold' for a couple of minutes. Charming!

Over the years I've had my hair done by Trevor Sorbie, Charles Worthington and Adam Reed. When Adam left to set up Charles's New York salon I asked along the corridors of Conde Naste and one name kept coming up, Joel at John Frieda. I've never known such a fantastic hairdresser. He doesn't just cut your hair, he tunes into you. I can't recommend him highly enough if you want to have best hair cut that's also unique to you. And he's a truly delightful man.

I went to JF in Mayfair and I had my hair done by Giles. He is the most gorgeous guy I have ever met! I totally love him! His work was amazing. I will go back for sure. Thanks, Giles!

I don't know what the raves are about. I had a cut and ended up looking like my mother. These guys need to get hipper.

Had my long hair, which was all one length, cut by the Irish guy called Paul. A consultation first, then he started cutting and styling. Wow, my hair was stunning! I expected to pay a lot more than I was charged. I will make other appointments for every 6 weeks.

I went to see Andreas on a friend's recommendation. He started off with a consultation and completely got what I was after. I was quite nervous but he made me feel completely at ease. I came out with an amazing haircut which has lasted. He was funny, and I later found out that he does Claudia Schiffer's hair too! Amazing. Can't wait to go back.

My first haircut at this salon. Saw a stylist called Nadia. Great consultation and the best haircut EVER! Everybody very attentive and friendly. This is going to be my salon from now on!
