On the hair side they are beyond great, but Delilah is so much more. They somehow perform magic - my hair looks longer when I leave, I'm sure an inch taller and have a spring to my step . It's a total experience of wonderful.

Phenomenal experience! Upon entering the salon you are greeted by the incredible team and the experience just keeps continuing to exceed all of your expectations. I have tried a few curly hairdressers and Delilah easily wins. Highly recommend! Do yourself a favour and book an appointment

Mr D runs a beautiful salon. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. The hairdressers really know how to cut and elevate my curls. They pass on helpful tips to manage the curls. They never rush and the pre cut consultation is very thorough. I can't sing the praises of Delilah highly enough.

I just had a haircut with Chloe. She was lovely, attentive and really helped me understand what works and what doesn't for my hair. The salon was great, all the staff were friendly and the sea salt curl cream worked really well in my hair. It was a great experience all round. Would highly recommend.

I finally feel at peace with my curls! The best hair cut ever!!!! I have a haircut that works with my curls - great shape, better curls with more definition and less frizz. Everyone was lovely - very polite and very friendly. A good haircut for curly hair is the best investment you can make for yourself - it makes looking after your hair easy. Love this place!!!

I got my keratin treatment done at Delilah and I am so happy with the service and the professionalism of the staff here. Chloe did my keratin treatment after I did not get results I was expecting. I have to say that she was so good and detailed, explained where the most of the product would go, how it would help with fizz..Thank you Chloe, I am really happy with the results!! After the first sitting, when I raised some concerns they were acknowledged and was followed up amazingly. The beautiful lady ( sorry for forgetting your name) and Adrian followed up and tried to book me in for the time that

I have curly hair and was looking for a hairdresser that understood my needs. I found Delilah after looking online, now they're stuck with me for life! I love the vibes in the salon, the people and of course, I always leave with the best hair thanks to George. Highly recommend no matter what hair type you have!
