For the whole Murphy Gozzard team, an incredible salon experience is our ultimate goal. We pride ourselves on providing a truly unique appointment, based around our artisan skills and genuine love of our hair community. With our reputation as the best hairdressers in Paddington we strive to create an environment which fosters a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere for each and every individual- with no exceptions. Our long list of five-star reviews and our Tried, Trusted and Tested Gritty Pretty stamp of approval are testament to that! In these challenging times trust between client and hairdresser has never been more important. If you are already a Murphy Gozzard client you will know what we mean, but if not? Here we suggest a few ways to ensure you always get your best cut, best colour and best style at a new salon, whether it is with us or elsewhere.
First up be sure to check in with them on their current COVID procedures and safety measures. Are they maintaining social distancing? Are they ensuring all cleaning is taking place? Are they providing everything they can to make you feel safe and looked after?
Be sure to research your hairdresser and their salon to really get a feel for what they stand for and how well they do their job. Check out their social media and read their online reviews to help form a complete picture. A quick look at our online presence immediately puts our new clients at ease as they can clearly see the people behind the chairs and why we love what we do.
Give clear information about what you are looking for when you call to book. You should never feel rushed off the phone or uncomfortable and they should be happy to listen to what you are looking for and any concerns. The salon should strive to match you to the perfect hairdresser for your needs so be sure to answer any questions honestly and be sure to take any advice.
Make sure you don’t allow simple miscommunication to jeopardise your visit. Even the most qualified hairdresser may see your version of honey toned highlights differently to how you imagine them. Be sure to bring along a few examples of what you are looking for so there can be no confusion about what you really mean.
Your stylist should take the time at the start of your appointment to get to know you and your hair and determine the best approach. This is the time to speak up and let them know things you have and haven’t liked in the past, so they can understand your hair history a little better. Our consultation process is relaxed and thorough and one of our favourite parts of the process.
Don’t forget hairdressers are here to help you and it’s our job to create a comfortable and empowering experience. Feel free to ask questions, get styling tips and if you aren’t happy with the cut, colour or style, be sure to let them know and to keep that communication open.
Perhaps you are looking for a new salon because you have had a bad experience elsewhere. As experts in colour correction and restyling at Murphy Gozzard, we love to be able to restore our clients’ faith in that magical relationship we can all have with our hairdressers in Paddington.
