Walking in to Japonica after a manic week, off a busy road you are instantly transported to serenity. Smells lush, looks calm, beautifully thought out interior and then there?s the consultation and hair cut.
Seiko listened, advised and gave me options. Understood my low maintenance needs. Relaxing head massage and wash and chat with lovely assistant. I got my fringe back, advice on how to dry, chat about hair care and life. It was an uplifting joy. Thank you Seiko and all at Japonica. Sarah

This is the second time I had a haircut by Seiko and once again, she managed to thrill me. She is an amazing stylist, absolutely brilliant! I have tried several places in the past and this is definitely the best. She gave me advice, showed me different ways to style my hair and she really pays attention to detail, which I love. Definitely try Seiko if you are struggling to find a good person to cut your hair.

It's been two weeks since my restyle haircut, and I still can't get over how amazing the shape/silhouette of my hair is every time I see myself in the mirror or in photos. I am really not one to fuss over my hair or make much effort. Being a mum with two young kids and a full time job, I just want to look tidy really.I have had so many compliments about my hair - even from strangers. I can't thank Jack enough and I'm not even sure he knows just how much I love this cut. So I wanted to write a review to show my appreciation (and I very rarely write reviews!).I don't spend much time on my hair (other than a quick wash and 2-minute blow dry), and to be able to feel fabulous and confident about my hair every morning is a new norm for me!I already know that I will ask Jack for the exact same cut again when I get a trim in a few months' time. I've never been more happy with a haircut. Thank you Jack :)

Very cozy and relaxed hair salon with excellent music - gave my fine hair new life.Jack is an incredible artist. He really listens to what you say and what you want, and takes the time to discuss what he plans to do. I noticed he also picks up on personal style to give you a really bespoke cut.I?ve also been in for a recolour with Charles. He also blew it out of the park with a rich copper balayage, and very impressively tone-matched the roots to my natural colour for a seamless regrowth.

I went into Japonica for a cut and colour at the weekend. Jack gave me a nice cut but unfortunately I can't leave a better review because the colour from Seiko just wasn't what I asked for. It's a bit frustrating when that happens given that a full head of highlights takes such a long time (3 hours or so in my case!) and costs a lot of money. I showed pictures of a dirty blonde /or bronde colour, and came out with what looks like a gingery/strawberry blonde that doesn't even go to my roots. So I was a bit disappointed.Luckily I called the salon and explained that I wasn't happy and they very kindly made me an appointment to get it fixed. Seiko proposed several options of toner to alter the colour and make it blend better with my roots, she was very attentive and listened to my concerns.Services: Hairstyling

Finding Japonica is the best thing to happen to my hair ever!It is so much more than a hairdressing salon...it's a space to have your hair cared for....and every time to walk out with your crowning glory truly glorious...The salon is beautifully calm, everything has been considered....the lighting, sumptuous decor, an outside zen space with blossom and acer trees...and a playlist you'll want to make yours.Jack and Charles are artists...and two of the nicest people...thank you both.xServices: Blowdry

I have been visiting Jack at Japonica for several years now and I am never disappointed by the precision of the cut and overall experience. Jack?s colleague Charles has also coloured my hair on several occasions and I am always extremely pleased with the result.The ambience of the salon makes it an enjoyable and relaxing experience and the eclectic playlist is always a joy! Highly recommend.Services: Hairstyling

You must book a haircut with Jack, immediately! I get stopped on the street and asked who cuts my hair, frequently, and someone even loved it so much they left me their number in my local coffee shop (who said romance was dead?!)I will never let anyone else cut my hair again. Its the best haircut I have had twice now, by a country mile, and I used to have my haircut every 6 weeks in London in silly money salons. Attention to detail is incredible, I also had colour with Seiko which was equally phenomenal. A great team, great vibe, exceptionally talented. A real find - it's a bit out of the way vs 'town' but don't let that put you off! Just book it, immediately.Services: Hairstyling
