A VIP experience for your beautiful curls
Your curly hair is as wonderfully unique as you are – and, just like you, deserves the very best care and treatment. Anna Balcombe is here to transform your curls, one at a time, with specialist advice, curl-by-curl cutting, colouring, product recommendations and more, helping you to enjoy, love and celebrate your glorious curls more than ever before.
Curl transformation
Let your curls live their best life with Anna’s Curl Transformation. Essential if it’s your first visit with us, you’ll begin by having a detailed curl consultation, which will inform your curl-by-curl or Deva Cut. We will then ensure your curls reach their potential through a process that could include a hair detox, steam, cleanse and deep condition. Next, we will educate you on how to use your products and create reliably defined curls, every time. Finally, we will dry and style your curls to ensure you leave the salon feeling like the queen you are.
Curl-by-curl cut
A bespoke cut – working with one curl at a time – and your unique curl pattern. Only available as part of a Curl Transformation to first-time clients and as a maintenance cut to returning clients. Your curls will enjoy a cut, a cleanse, a condition, style and dry. They will leave revived, restored and renewed.
Deva Cut
A methodised sculpting cut working with the weight distribution and shape of your curls. Only available as part of a Curl Transformation to first-time clients and as a maintenance cut to returning clients. We’ll cleanse, condition, style and dry your curls – all as part of a technique that creates volume, definition, and a balanced shape tailored to your curl type and texture.
Colour
Colouring your curls the right way makes them pop! Let’s elevate your look with ribbons of colour using considered placement and techniques. We promise to make your curls shine like never before!
Consultation
Are you particularly nervous about having your curls cut? We get you. Many of us have had terrible experiences in the chair at the hands of someone who does not understand how to cut curls. With this consultation we will meet you and your curls where you are right now, giving us a chance to learn about your curls, and you the chance to build trust in us – leaving you free to choose whether to come back to us for a Curl Transformation.
Kids and teens curly cut
Let us show your kids and teens how to celebrate what they have and start to really own their curls. Anna will teach you and your children how to embrace those curls with tailored education and a next-level haircut.
Frequently asked questions
Why do I need a specialist approach for my curly hair?
Every head of curls is beautiful and unique – your curls have their own structure, texture and pattern. As such, you’ll never get the best results from a ‘one size fits all’ haircut. Cutting curly hair in the same the way you would straight hair means you have no idea where each curl will land and what shape you’ll be left with. But with the right expertise and cut, sculpting and styling, your curls will really pop! Get in touch to find out more.
What is the benefit of cutting curl by curl?
Curl-by-curl cuts involves assessing the natural shape and texture of each curl, while they’re dry and looking their best, before cutting and sculpting every curl one at a time to create an overall balanced, flattering and defined shape that’s personal to you. This is the best way to enhance your natural curl pattern and flatter your face and head shape, achieving unique results that really celebrate your individual curls. The transformation will amaze you!
How do I prepare for my appointment?
In order to assess the nature structure and texture of your curls, we ask that your hair is washed, dried and detangled when you come for your appointment. It’s fine to use your normal products but your hair should be down (we’d request you avoid tying it up at all after washing and drying). Essentially, we need to see your curls on their ‘best hair day’ – so that might be the day you washed your hair or might be a day or so afterwards. If you’re unsure, do get in touch in advance of your appointment to check.
