Seham is very professional and friendly, she did a great job of my hair, certainly would go back again

Serena gave my 96 year old mother a wash and blow dry. It was quite hard to get my mother to the wash basin as she is in a wheelchair and had a job standing to reach the basin, but Serena was very patient. My mother was very happy.
