Michaeljohn reviews
Last week I was at this big event. I was next to the celebrities' table where there were two young ladies with the most amazing hair. I was wondering which famous hairstylist was behind those hairdos, when I overheard one of them mentioning Michele Antiga at Michaeljohn.
On the appointment day I was rather nervous, but Michele made me feel welcomed and looked after right away. I guess his Italian charm helped. He asked me a few questions about my hair, then he gave me some ideas before working his magic! I've never ever felt so wonderful. I didn't think my hair could look so beautiful and he kept it the length I wanted. What a delightful experience.

I am sure friends and family have written some of these reviews. I have been using the salon for some time and Tonia the colour technician is fab. As for some of the others, however, they don't even come close...

Adrianne always manages to make me feel like I have the most improved head of hair of the whole salon! Getting my hair done has become a real treat that I look forward to.

Max has cut my hair for years and is a miracle worker! It always looks 10 times healthier when I leave and the cut grows out beautifully. For colour, I've followed Bruno around London for years and he's back with Max at Michaeljohn. He's enthusiastic, thoughtful, listens to exactly what you want, and then works his magic. I love them both!

I don't know how I would have done without Stefania's help when, after going to a hairdresser in Italy, my hair was completely ruined. I was desperate but Stefania has managed to find the right cut to get the best out of my very damaged hair. Not only that, she encouraged me to change the hair colour I was using and found for me the one which is actually my exact natural colour!
One year later, my hair looks healthy and much stronger, so I can only recommend whoever reads my comment to book an appointment with Stefania Cazora. You'll be impressed with her professionalism and experience. Make sure you book well in advance, as she's normally very busy.

Stefania is great! I let her do whatever she thought was the best look for me and she transformed me with the best haircut ever!! I will recommend to all my friends.

Josephine saved my colour! Another salon had turned my hair black instead of brown and not only did Josephine do an excellent job of making my colour presentable again, she even matched me with a shade and highlights that are more suited to my skin tone than my previous colour (before the black colour incident). I will definitely be going back!

I recently went to Michaeljohn for the first time since it's been refurbished and I love the new look - it's modern and funky without being clinical and the golden finish is so luxurious. The girls were extremely polite and welcoming.
I had a La Brasiliana treatment, which was great as I've got coarse, thick hair. I do still have to blowdry my hair but it is so much more manageable and less fly-away. I'd definitely recommend it.
I also had my eyebrows threaded by a girl called Gita. They look great and very natural. I'd definitely recommend Michaeljohn to anyone as they are all very professional.

I went here for the Brazilian Keratin Treatment and was so disappointed with the result. My hair returned to its previous condition within a couple of washes. The stylist, when I went back to complain, blamed my hair type! I'd had a consultation before the treatment was done and there wasn't any mention of my hair being unsuitable then. Really not impressed, would not recommend this salon. I found the atmosphere quite rude and frosty.

I visited this salon last week and saw Josephine for highlights and Michele for cut. Wow, what a great experience - my hair is fabulous. Highly recommend this salon (which is, by the way, newly refurbished and looks great).

I visited this salon 3 days ago and had the best experience ever. A senior stylist called Shaz gave me a Biolustre treatment and the best haircut. My hair feels soft and silky and very manageable. I highly recommend Shaz and will be returning in 3 weeks or so to see him. Thanks once again Shaz!

Last week I visited the salon to have the permanent blow dry treatment done by a girl call Abbie. The result has been wonderful, my hair has kept its shape and is a lot more manageable. I'll definitely be going back in a couple of months...

Had a Biolustre treatment in the salon and my hair feels amazing. I had a fantastic cut and blow dry too. The salon is being revamped and I'm sure it will be amazing. I will definitely be returning.

If you have blonde hair, there is only one colourist in London to trust and that is Josephine. I have followed her to three different salons for good reason: she is the only colourist I’ve known in London to have the skill, dexterity and patience to do foils fine enough to create a natural blonde with subtle highlights and lowlights. Josephine is not only an exceptionally talented colourist, she’s incredibly sweet and attentive and always takes the time to talk about my colour before she begins. I have no hesitation in recommending Josephine.

I initially went to Michaeljohn to follow my colourist, Josephine, who never fails to get the colour just right. She is a perfectionist and really takes her time to listen to exactly what you want. I'd also really recommend her hair extensions, which have transformed my hair, not to give length but rather volume. Josephine is meticulous in her work and is really careful to ensure that the extensions are well placed so that there is absolutely no damage to the natural hair. Also what's really important is Josephine's reliability - not once in about 6 years with her have I had a cancellation. She takes pride in her work and wants to know that you're happy with the result, which I always am... and that's saying something as I'm incredibly fussy! Highly recommended.

I went to Michaeljohn a couple of weeks ago to see a girl called Bonnie for the Brazilian blowdry. She has burnt my hair so badly and was so rude, I'm never going back. Reception were very rude too. Beware of this salon.

JOSEPHINE! That's all I can say! She's the best colourist in London and I've followed her all over. She listens to what you want and has great energy. This salon is also in a great spot for me. At the end of the day, you have to wear your hair every day, so it's worth it - that's what I've always said. It's the most important piece of clothing a girl needs!

I was very disappointed with my visit. I wanted something subtle but my hair now looks like a tiger, full of stripes of different colours. My cut then resulted in one side being slightly longer than the other - some people wouldn't have noticed, but my hair is very straight so it's actually quite obvious. I was then charged a large amount of money for the look.
On top of this, the salon was a mess and there is building work going on. Overall, a very unrelaxing and horrible experience.

Very disappointed. Asked colourist for a colour to soften my existing hair which was too dark (previously coloured at the same salon). She seemed to know what I wanted, but I left the salon with what I can only describe as orange stripes! The colourist admitted that they hadn't turned out as she had hoped. Surprised then when I was charged the full price when paying. So underwhelmed that I didn't have the strength to complain! Suffice to say, I won't be returning.

I came to the salon to follow my favorite hairdresser Angie M. With afro hair I need a hairdresser that is consistent, and Angie is the best. The salon is great, with a fantastic atmosphere and beauty treatments on hand. As well as a good hair day, what more can a girl want?
