{Review: Hairdressing salon, Kano}

I love nothing more than getting my hair done - a few hours of child-free bliss as I get pampered - what more could a busy mum ask for!? However, as with most mums, it can be tricky to negotiate an appointment that suits my schedule! The other weekend I was lucky enough to have a Saturday day child-free and first stop was the hairdresser for a some highlights and a wee trim.

I've had so many different hair styles over the years, but for now I'm growing my hair and keeping it blonde. Blonde is not my natural hair colour though and it takes a bit of upkeep! Cue Nicole at Kano :-)

I'm fortunate to have found a fabulous salon in Glasgow's Southside that I absolutely love. Kano caters for both men and women (and there are also treatment rooms in the basement). The salon is really relaxed and I'm always made welcome by the staff - they're all lovely. I used to trek into the city centre for hair appointments but the salons I frequented were a bit pretentious and over priced. I'm much happier at Kano.

Colour on - time for cuppa & magazines!

The end result - loving the blunt fringe!

I also occasionally pop into see Nicole for a wash & blow dry for special occasions, like my work Christmas lunch or my daughter's first birthday party. I was also there to have my hair done for my 30th birthday party and before my sister's hen night. 

All ready for my work Christmas night last year!

As I mentioned, there are also some treatment rooms in the basement where Stephanie runs Beauty in the Basement. I can highly recommend her for a spray tan!   

My kids have also had their hair cut at Kano and the girls are brilliant with the little ones. My son apparently doesn't like having his hair cut (please say it's a phase?), but he does like going in to 'have a chat with the ladies!'. His words, not mine!!

I received a complimentary cut & colour with Nicole at Kano in exchange for this post. As always, opinions are my own.
