I don't know what the first two comments are talking about but I've been going to Shimi for about a year now and I've never considered going anywhere else since. I have my hair cut by Shimi and she always takes however long is needed to cut my hair right. She has a brilliant understanding of the way my hair works and what suits me and, as I am only young, I haven't really experimented much with my hair and don't know much about what would be the best for me and so I literally trust Shimi to do whatever she wants with my hair and have never regretted it. The staff are all lovely, welcoming and friendly and seem to really care about you and what they are doing with your hair. Absoultely wonderful. 5 stars.
What a fantastic find - I have had a great cut (by Shimi), a half head of highlights (by Kinga), also my daughter had a fantastic graduated bob cut (by Choi). Surbiton is flooded with mediocre hair salons at the moment, but this one is just outstanding.
I have just come home from having a full head of highlights and cut and blowdry at Shimi. I can honestly say that at 29 years old and having visited alot of salons in my time (including Michaeljohn in Mayfair!), I found this to be 1st class. I was warmly greeted on arrival and made to feel completely welcome. The colourist(I can't remember her name, early 20's, blonde) took time to question what exactly it was that I wanted and made helpful suggestions. I didn't feel like she was rushing the job which I have felt in so many salons previously, and the result was exactly what I was looking for. My hair was then cut by Bruno who again took the time to make sure he knew exactly what I wanted and I left the salon with a perfect blonde 60's mod haircut. Even the junior was very good and didn't have the robotisism that alot of the juniors in salons have when washing your hair. An overall perfect experience and I would strongly recommend anyone to try out this salon. having just moved to Surbiton I will definately be making this my Salon of choice. They are currently offering 30% off colour for 1st time clients too, which is a bonus!!
Please don't go here!!! I went in for blow-dry and came out looking like Pat Sharp! Not good if you don't want to look like Pat Sharp! When I complained, they did nothing to rectify the situation. God knows what they would have done if I would have let them at me with scissors!
