    My friend recommended Vicky here nearly 15 years ago and I wouldn't go anywhere else. My daughter comes now, I get my hair coloured and cut beautifully with no fuss, it is a great place. I can't recommend it highly enough, a hidden gem with very talented, experienced hairdressers.

    I really love having my hair cut by Vicky at Butler and Lawler. She is such a good cutter, grasping exactly what look I am after. She understands how I am often nervous of change but gently encouraging too if she feels a certain cut will suit me. I trust her entirely, which is important. Not only is she a brilliant cutter/stylist, she is also such fun and I always come away feeling happy and uplifted after seeing her. The atmosphere in B & Lawler is warm and friendly - the other staff are lovely too. It's always a treat to go there, I couldn't recommend it enough.

    A very friendly and cosy environment but don't be fooled....this salon houses top professionals with a lot of experience in styling and colouring. I have been going here for many years and have never been disappointed with the cut or colour. Recently, I have started having short and v short hair from previous mid length and Vicky and Debbie have taken me gradually through the process so that i don't feel "shorn" or traumatised by the change. A few celebrities quietly getting their hair done here but not so you would notice.

    Discovering Vicky almost twenty years ago was one of the best things Ive ever done. The salon has a wonderful friendly and easy going feel to it - with great music. It is truly wonderful to be able to go and have a perfect haircut every time which is exactly what Vicky does. Even though I 've been a regular for so long Vicky still takes the time to review my hair. Whats wonderful is there is no need to chat if you don't feel like it so it can be an enjoyable chat or a really relaxing peaceful hour. Over time many of my friends have become regular clients and I still get stopped in the street by strangers to know where I get my hair cut ! Before she moved to NY my daughter was a regular client of Debbie's , who is also brilliant. I can't recommend the salon and team more highly - Mary

    I've had my hair cut by Vicki at Butler & Lawler for years and years now. She is fabulous and all of her colleagues are equally wonderful .You are always welcomed with a smile, a warm hello and the offer of a lovely cuppa. I wouldn't go anywhere else for my haircut. Period.

    I’ve been having my hair cut here every four weeks for nearly 15 years (it grows quickly). Jennifer, Debbie, Vicky and team are all amazing and now snip the whole Gosling family. It’s our West London secret but too good to keep to ourselves. Go there now to sort your bonce out.

    Yvonne has been highlighting my hair for 3 years and she is brilliant. Always listens to what I want and her work is fast and precise. I panic when she is going away! Vicky is an amazing hairstylist. I have tricky hair that needs taming and shaping - she is the best. I love Debbie too. A salon with lovely friendly atmosphere.
