A Good Haircut

Hello, has anyone tried  http://www.toppersofhackney.com/ ? They do seem on the pricey side but if they come very well recommended I’d like to give them a try.

  2. @londontheinside it’s also not in Hackney!

  3. If (like roughly 50% of people) you happen to be a fella, I can reccomend no greater pleasure than to visit a Turkish barber. My usual haunt is Pascha on Stoke Newington High Stret (opposite Tesco). It may be a bit daunting at first, what with the Turkish TV blaring and not much to read while your waiting other than the Turkish football news, in Turkish, but for 25 quid or thereabouts you’ll get a good haircut (which they take time over), a cut throat shave, a head, neck and shoulder massage, a face pack (if that’s your thing), your ear and nosehair burnt away with what looks like an oversized earbud and a good going over by the wierd foot massager thing they have at every chair. Altogether a great experience and you’ll leave feeling totally refreshed.

  4. Toppers of Hackney are great! I had my hair done by Michael and loved it! If you fancy coming along to Toppers to meet the stylists and not hae them cut your hair yet, take a look at this… http://theamazings.org/2011/10/quick-up-dos-with-michael/

  15. I had my hair cut recently at Kontakt and I had a pretty good experience. I saw Emma and she was great in understanding how lazy I am with my hair which always seems hard to convey to stylists sometimes (“I don’t own any hair products or a hair dryer. I like having messy bed head that really IS messy bed head.”). Recommended.”

  18. What a great hair thread! I’m also a hairdresser however after working in Soho for years have decided to become more local in my work. It’s a great way for me to get involved in the community and I come to you so it’s super convenient!http://www.facebook.com/pages/Nancy-Gibson-Hairstylist/405650392829176

  19. I’m rather desperate to find a curly-hair specialist in Hackney… Preferably someone who knows the \Curly Girl” method or was trained in the early 1990s by Toni and Guy with dry twist cutting…  Any suggestions out there? Thanks!!”
