EXCELLENT Based on 20 reviews Sinan Sandal2025-08-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve read so many horror stories about the damage chemical straightening causes but I think it really depends on the stylist… it turned out AMAZING and my hair feels like silk. Faye really knows what she’s doing and once I saw how good my girlfriend’s hair looked after Faye’s YUKO, I had to get it done too!! Maia Bown2025-08-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve had the Yuko treatment a few times now, and I’m amazed at how my hair keeps improving with each session. The first time, I loved the smoothness and shine, but now it’s even better so much softer, healthier-looking, and easier to manage. Every visit leaves my hair feeling stronger and more polished, and the results last beautifully. I’m so happy with how it’s transformed my hair over time! So impressed my boyfriend has even had his done! Faye came highly recommended from a colleague, and I would never go to anyone else. Mary Asanga2025-08-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Faye's website was professional and informative, and the consultantion call sealed the deal as it was clear she was very experienced with this specialist treatment. On the day, Faye listened to my concerns and goals then tailored the treatment to my hair type and took care in protecting every inch. She used both the gel and cream solution which requires extreme skill and no one else would do. I couldn't be happier with the results. Faye is very charismatic and hospitable. Her teas are fantastic too! Olivia Anna2025-08-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was my second Yuko treatment, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! It has made a huge difference. I’ve had a range of straightening treatments, none have worked long term for me before, I wish I had found Faye sooner. I can confidently say this was one of the best decisions I’ve made for my mixed race hair, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with it. The care, expertise, and attention to detail from Faye throughout the process is outstanding . Truly the best hairdresser I’ve been to for my hair, and I highly recommend her highly. Denise Rose2025-07-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After weeks of research for a Japanese hair straightening specialist I discovered Faye! Faye absolutely understood my Afro corse textured hair and achieved an excellent result leaving my hair sleek and healthy. Faye makes you feel so relaxed and comfortable while paying close attention to details. She makes sure you get the best outcome. I have booked my colour with her in a few days time as I know I’m in safe hands and can trust her as she totally transformed my hair and exceeded my expectations. I never thought my hair would be this long with so much natural movement . The best decision I have made in years is to choose Faye to do this treatment. 😊 Stephanie Sherlock2025-06-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been a customer with Faye for 18 years! I used to come to the Yuko salon in London when she first started doing my hair. And now Faye conveniently comes to my home to do my yukos. I have extremely thick, curly hair and having the yuko makes my life so much easier and the results are amazing every time. So smooth and straight, saves me hours of blow drying time every week. I would never trust anyone else to do my hair. Peri Asim2025-06-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Faye has been doing my Yuko for many years and she honestly is the best! My hair is always healthy and silky smooth. I love the convenience of having the treatment done at home. Her service is literally perfect…. Convenient, professional, efficient and genuinely friendly. Rahima E2025-06-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My mum and I first had our Yuko done with Faye when she was working at the Yuko Salon & Academy in Mayfair, now she does our hair at home which is extremely convenient. Faye is an expert in her field. When it comes to our hair we wouldn’t go to anyone else. Pakize Aksoy2025-06-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have had many many different straightening treatments in the past but Yuko is by far the best. The Yuko treatment makes my hair super manageable and my life so much easier, I couldn’t live without it. A couple years ago I ran in to a friend whose hair looked incredible - She told me Faye did it, so of course I had to book with her too! Faye is the best technician I have ever had. The first time I had my hair done with her she clearly explained the entire process and gave lots of advice on aftercare and maintenance. She is extremely honest, professional and meticulous when doing the treatment. Her results are outstanding which really sets her apart from the rest. E2025-06-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Faye has been chemically straightening my hair twice a year for over 20 years and her results are perfect every time! Although I have a full head of bleach hi lights that dry out my hair, once I have my Yuko done the health of my hair is restored and feels silky smooth and shiny. Faye is incredibly thorough when it comes to the application and her method, she always does a fantastic job. She truely cares about the health of her clients hair. I trust her implicitly… she will be doing my hair for years to come.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
