The flagship site of Trevor Sorbie is a quick stroll away from Covent Garden tube station, tucked away behind the main shopping street. It’s a beautifully sleek, open salon with large windows letting in plenty of light (so you can be sure that colour is just right). All of the stylists here are top-tier, oozing with quality and – importantly – great chat. As a customer, the experience feels truly personalised – they’re crafty with more classic cuts but will also be open to get creative with bolder colours and looks – and are always upfront about what will or will not suit your face and hair type (which, let’s be real, we’re always be grateful for). A lot of these guys have been pros for many years or are hair educators, they’re in high demand, so be organised: you’ll want to book an appointment well in advance to get the hands (and scissors) you’re after.
One thing which feels especially forward-thinking about this place is the salon’s gender neutral pricing: prices start at £89 for a cut and finish for all genders. Oh, and if you take up their offer of a glass of fizz while the stylist snips away, there’s a very high chance you’ll walk out of your appointment with a runway-ready locks that could convinced that Floral Street is, in fact, a LFW catwalk.
