  • In case no-one has figured this out, you can find out exactly what hairdresser it is by clicking on the location, then you get a streetmap map. at the bottom of the page (under map) it says
    This product includes mapping data licensed from Ordnance Survey

    and it gives a web address, if you click on this, the map reappears but with an arrow to the exact location of hairdresser....

    whizzy eh? :T

    There are three salons near me and they never reply or honour the voucher. I've given up now.

    Ive tried these before and although my nearest salon is only 5 miles away and I was willing to travel there, they said there wasnt one near me, so beware, only send it off if there is one VERY near you
    :hello:

    thanks, I have some free postage envelopes, so I won't lose anything by trying! Worth a go!
  • Its worth a go, but I wouldn't hold your breath...I've tried twice with both the Hair Group and the Beauty Group, both times there was a salon near me (i.e. about 7/8 miles away) that I was happy to drive to but they either said there wasn't a salon near me, or they rang me up to say that due to demand they couldn't honour the voucher but offered me a "free" family group session instead :rolleyes:. However I have read posts on here where people have managed to succeed with the offer, so as I said it may still be worth a go.

    It's not a "no spend" though - you have to pay for the hair washing.

    When I have my hair cut I always have a "dry cut", so no hair washing.
    I've always found the hair washing/blow dry/extras they shove on (mousse, etc) isn't worth paying for.

    I usually go down with my hair wet, they cut it, I walk out. Then I see how it dries and if it's "a bit odd" because it's dried before/as it was being cut, then I simply wash my hair myself again and it's sorted.
  • I have never had any problems with these offers. In fact for the last one, I registered the voucher in my son's name. He is a 'student' with seldom cut, almost waist length hair. They took great delight in making him feel really special- no extras were put on or purchases expected, and he thoroughtly enjoyed being the centre of attention! Perhaps it depends on the local salon though.

    I live in London close to a couple of the salons but have never received a a free cut from the hair group - tried a few times dont bother anymore. Waste of time mostly, but hey could work out for some occasionally.

    This offer seems to come up regularly, but (as usual) there is only one salon in the whole county, nowhere near me etc etc etc.... would love to be able to try offers like this!

    At least your county exists! West Yorkshire doesn't... does this mean I can stop paying my council tax?
  • I have twice used vouchers with the Hair Group, both with excellent results at very good salons. Full wash, cut and blow dry for free - once in Bath and once in Southsea. I'd recommend it any time!
