Nice place to go and relax, but definitely better places to go. Unless you get a deal online, I find this place extremely expensive for the service that you get.

Very enjoyable and relaxing at V for Hair. The staff are lovely. Well looked after and pampered. Loved the Pedicure and Henna Brows that I had done and would highly recommend.

DO NOT GO HERE! PLEASE READ!!! I never make reviews but for this I had to make an exception so hopefully nobody else has an experience like mine. I went here last week for a barber cut (I have a boys haircut and always prefer a barber to do it) and as I went here earlier on in the year and got a decent cut that cost me $45 I decided to go back and get my hair done by the same barber, but had the worst experience ever. I called before I arrived to book an appointment, the lady asked my name, found me on the system and quoted $45, same as the last time...until I got there and sat in the chair ready to go ahead with my cut when she decided that she now (even after confirming over the phone a couple of hours before) wanted me to pay $85, double the amount of last time! When I questioned this and asked her to explain how she could charge me twice the price she ripped off the cape from around my neck (literally) picked up my bag and screamed at me to get out the shop, shouting that I had said on the phone I only wanted the sides shaved (which in fairness I did AFTER she quoted me $45 because I thought that's all I needed until the barber told me otherwise, although this is irrelevant as I paid $45 for the entire cut 4 months ago) she also shouted about me being female and a female short hair cut is $85 but this does not explain why she charged me $45 last time and I think it was pretty obvious on the phone that I was female AND when she looked me up on her system (I mean please tell me if I'm wrong but I think my name is pretty feminine). I have never in my life dealt with someone reacting in this way, I was absolutely shocked, her behaviour was disgusting and I cannot for the life of me believe that someone with a temper like hers can work in any form of customer service role. I felt sorry for the guy who was about to cut my hair who just repeatedly kept apologising, if I were you bud I'd get a job elsewhere.
In fairness the reviews aren't great and it's been quiet both times when I've been in here so perhaps I should of known better but whoever this woman is, im not sure if she's the manager or the owner but she shouldn't be either.
A week later and I still cannot believe it. Save yourself a trip, go somewhere else, anywhere else.

Came for just a consultation to see what the best colour/treatment for my hair would be. My time had been booked in, I had an appointment and I arrived five minutes early. Was told I would be seen to shortly yet minutes past and I was kept waiting for 35 minutes, at which point I was told to come back the next day. I stupidly came back, waited another half an hour again and then gave up and walked out. What an absolute waste of my time, considering I drove 20 minutes each way to get here as I was told this place had excellent service! Ha! What a joke. Definitely wouldn't go back!
