Escape Hair & Aesthetics

Very happy with my experience. I had to bring along my two kids (7 months and 4 years), and they couldn't have been more accommodating and friendly. The hair cut was excellent too.

I have been twice on the recommendation of a friend and love it. I had an unusual colour that the stylist matched exactly and she is definitely a precision cutter. Love the massage chairs and the head massage that comes with the shampoo. Pats of her dog Bruno, a Doberman-wannabe-lap-dog who was in residence were an added bonus! A relaxed, happy, unpretentious salon that Id definitely recommend to others.

I love this place!!! I have been going there since I moved to Newtown in 2009 and have never had a bad experience. Love the massage chairs, love the environment, and ALWAYS love the result.

Do not go here! They ruined my hair. I had long, straight hair and asked for a cut past my shoulders with layers around my face. They cut the top half of my hair in a Chicago-esque bob, with the bottom half of my hair past my shoulders. The layers aren't even blended, just two different chunky lengths. Even my friends admit it looks awful, describing it as though it's two haircuts on one head. And the worst thing is that the top layer is far too thick and short (about ear length at the back of my head) to have it fixed at a different hairdresser. I just have to grow it out. For the love of god, don't let them do the same to you.

This place is great for kids or babies - they have a play pen with toys and videos out the back, and they are very patient with small children, as well as treating older children like grown-ups, which my 8yr old daughter loved. She got such a fantastically stylish cut I'll get mine done like hers next time!
