The 30 Best Special occasions in Croydon

“Came after work so quite late but the guy inside, Hamid, was really kind. I didn’t give a really good description what hairstyle I want to have, but even without a description he absolutely nailed it and I love the style he cutted. I will definitely come again and can highly recommend to everyone.”

“Really happy customer. Charlie was brilliant, discussing what I wanted; I'm lazy and just wash and go. She explained what the cut would look like in view of my hair type and what I would need to do to maintain it e.g. how to control fly away hair and how to style it with a brush and hairdryer. I booked an hour before by phone, so was nervous as I've never been here before but she put me at ease, as did the others on reception. A fabulous place, I will definitely be returning. Thanks Charlie, you did what I asked and more. Also thanks for the Xmas special hot chocolate! A very pleasant experience overall.”

Had a burger and a couple of pints of Guinness zero; burger was top notch, proper gourmet stuff and we really enjoyed the quiz, we somehow won! Only downside was that it was a bit quiet, probably helped us win the quiz though. Staff were great, very friendly and welcoming.”

“I had an amazing experience with my stylist, Tina - she is a godsend honestly. I got my hair cut with her earlier this year and she adapted what I asked for to go with my parting and it looked amazing. I went this weekend to dye my hair red and it looks better than I could have imagined I am beyond happy with it and would definitely reccomend. I don't even live in Croydon anymore I came down because I knew Tina was working and would make sure it turns out amazingly. I am so so so happy with it !!! (it wont let me attach a picture which is annoying)”

You could tell he genuinely cared about creating a great customer experience. It’s rare to see service with such a personal touch. Big thanks to the team – especially Vinnie– for making our visit so enjoyable.”

I will recommend Lauren 100%”

She took the time to listen to my needs and really get to understand where I’m at in life and all the factors that may be affecting the condition of my skin, from diet through to stress levels. The experience was more than a surface level facial, I came out feeling totally calm and relaxed. Would highly recommend and can’t wait for my next one!”

Karolina is friendly, kind and very good at her job - she listens to what you want carefully and actually for me, went above and beyond my expectations. I had a balayage and I’m still in shock that this is my hair. Karolina will definitely be my regular hairdresser from now on.”

All barbers are always on time, always professional, and the barber shop banter is legendary. I thoroughly recommend this barbershop. Sammy Creator of The Family Podcast.”

“Rubix Events were lovely, professional and reasonably priced! They provided a compact photo booth with red carpet treatment and props, we requested to print our photos out and the quality was very good - we even got to have custom filter for the party! They also provided number lights which lit up the room! They were prepared with their own lighting as well and were discreet, as this was a surprise birthday set up - it all went smoothly. They also had a person on standby all night to help guests with the booth. From booking to the actual event they did an amazing job and I would certainly hire them again~”

“Had the best eyelashes ever done by Agnes. AB Beauty Studio in 53 Aesthetics. The whole experience was amazing from start to finish. I have a bad back and was worried about lying down straight for 3 hours. When I walked into the studio, I was amazed; the room was luxurious with a really comfortable high-tech bed, which was ergonomic and bent to my design. I was so comfortable. I visited on the hottest day of the year but was actually a bit chilly by the end! As the air conditioning was so good. The experience was relaxing, the decor delectable and the ambience ajouter with the choice of music to listen to. The patience, care and attention that was taken to apply each one of my lashes individually unbelievable. The end result: divine. I love my fabulous new look. I wanted a false lash look, and AB Beauty Studio certainly delivered! I have already booked my next appointment. These lashes have lasted through thick and thin. Im so pleased with them. Honestly best lashes in Croydon. I regret forking out money before for lashes that fell out straight away. 5 stars. Booked skin facial for my Son at 53 aesthetics. It was brilliant, head massage, mask, exfoliating, the works. This place is really the best for self-care, time out, pause and relax. Staff are all polite and adorable. Wonderful atmosphere. Would definitely recommend. I used hyperbaric oxygen chamber. Was a very positive experience.”

“Olivia was extremely welcoming,putting me @ ease. The salon's extremely clean. The lashes were applied with ease, absolutely no stinging following application Advice & follow up discussed with all questions addressed. Lovely experience”
