Irene has braided my hair twice now and each time the results have been beautiful and my hair has been in perfect condition when I took the braids out (which lasted so long!) She has such a fantastic technique and she’s such a lovely person! Feel very lucky to have found her.

I’ve been going to Irene (hairdresser) for over 10 years now for both mine and my mum’s hair, and I honestly wouldn’t go anywhere else. Irene is always welcoming, professional, and knowledgeable especially when it comes to natural Afro hair. I usually get a wash and silk press treatment and my Mum gets her keratin treatment. Every time we leave the salon, we get so many compliments on our hair and always reckoning Irene who consistently does an amazing job.
The salon itself has a lovely relaxed atmosphere, uses great quality products, and you never feel rushed. It’s rare to find a hairdresser you trust for so long, but Irene has absolutely earned it. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable, talented, and friendly salon in South Woodford. - Elsie K··from Google
I have been a customer of Irene for the last 9 years when she started doing my daughter’s hair, followed by my son and then myself. I have always received impeccable service from her over the years. Best investment in hair care for my family. Highly recommend!

I have been a client of Irene’s for years and her attention to detail is what brings me back time after time. She knows her art and I will always trust her as my stylist.

Irene is a great hairstylist who is gentle and provides expert advice on my locs. She started my locs 4yrs ago and I've since introduced my friends to her. She's also cut and braided my daughter's hair. Highly recommended!
