CV Hair, Marchmont St Bloomsbury
I highly recommend this salon. I had a haircut on Tuesday, as my hair has grown like the hedgerows in the past 6 weeks. Looked as unkempt too. I'm liking the slight asymmetry we agreed on.
I visited this salon in 2011, where I had a very good haircut also. This time I also had a deep conditioning treatment involving a 10 minute scalp massage. Bliss.
They also introduced me to a new & wonderful hair product. Ssrbastian Potion 9. It gives shape without crunchiness. I thought that was a mythical attribute! It doesn't make my scalp itch.
One of the perils of long trips is ahead management. A bad haircut can have a long tail. Not something you can plan ahead for, except by being shorn really short or leaving it really long. In the middle you have to hope you can 'read' the local salons & be desperate enough to try.
So now I have another reason I have to come back to London.
