I know the salon does dome cause dome themselves reccommended them!!!

I never had an issue with the way the extensions were applied it was the poor quality of the extension hair!!!

AS I ALREADY SAID I WILL NOT NAME AND SHAME THE SALON BECAUSE THERE WAS NOT FAULT WITH THE WAY THE EXTENSIONS WERE APPLIED, THE DOME HAIR WAS SIMPLY S**T!

WHY SHOULD I BADMOUTH THE SALON WHEN THEY WERE NOT AT FAULT, THEY SIMPLY CHOOSE WRONGLY WITH THEIR CHOICE OF HAIR EXTENSION SUPPLIERS

Monofibre hair

Postby Denise D on Tue Aug 21, 2007 11:10 am

Hi, i'm new on this, I found it a while back when I was researching extensions after having two disastrous sets (one Great Lengths, one Racoon) both expensive and done by top High Street London salons. They damaged my already fragile hair so badly that I had to wait 8 months for the damage to grow out enough to be able to do anything with my hair.

Then I had Monofibre put in at Antenna. After all the problems before I wanted the best, so I had Julien Guyonnet the Creative Director do them, and I have never seen a hairdresser so skilled in all my life. He had two of his girls spend 30 minutes just blending the colours, then he took less than 2 hours to do a complete transformation, and I mean complete, I look totally different and I am amazed at how good they look and feel.

Plus, even having the top stylist put them in, cut them and give me a complete care pack of goodies, they cost over £100 less than when I had a junior stylist with very limited experience put in the Great Lengths extensions at a High Street salon in suburban London.

I'm not a PR for Antenna, I work in the international property industry and I have to travel a lot, with Monofibre extensions I have never had a bad hair day while travelling as they are very easy to maintain, and I have never been to a meeting feeling like an old dog because of my own awful hair (which made me look and feel like a frumpy middle-aged woman).

Each to their own, but for me, I will never go to any other salon than Antenna; they really are the experts and Julien is incredible. And the extensions themselves don't itch at all, which was a big problem for me with the glue-in human hair, as the top of the bond is a fold of soft Monofibre so they are really comfortable. My advice would be to try a few different methods and see which one suits you best, but definitely give Monofibre a try, you might find it really works for you.

Is this the salon of Simon Forbes? I have read about him and his developments within hair.

I read how he was ridiculed in the eighties when he came up with hair extensions and he was thought to be a maverick.How interesting if this Antenna is his.

Yes it is. He is still around,but has been producing T.V. programmes recently.

I worked with him last year on a series with Lee Stafford.He never mentioned to me about what he done all those years ago.Shame ,because
I'd love to have known what he must have gone through in those early days.

He's a very quiet and private person,but totally motivated when he is working.

I met Simon Forbes ten years ago. What a sweety!!

When I asked him what should I do about my hair....he laughed.
Don't blame him in hindsight,I suppose everyone asks him that rather boring question!!

He's a very powerful man and very charismatic,and very modest too.

I,too am not a PR for Antenna,neither have I met Simon Forbes,but I have met and had my hair done by Julian,what a treat.

There is nothing nicer to walk into a salon and feel frumpy and jaded and walk out feeling just fantastic.

Having read some of these rather snidey comments from,I presume ,other hairdressers,I am somewhat disappointed in them,that they do not repect their mentors.

He has changed my life,I wear extensions,they are short,but as he tells me they have transformed my look,and I agree wholeheartedly,they have.They are a sinch to look after,no more bad hair days and I enjoy going back to Antenna,just for the buzz,(and coming out looking ten years younger!).

I also enjoy talking to other clients there,who have gone through similar experiences to myself and we all feel enlightened.

Next time I go,I will surely talk to Julian about Simon Forbes.Watch this space.....

I was having Monofibre Extensions the other day and guess what,Simon Forbes came in. Nacho my stylist pointed him out to me and then introduced me.Charming man,as is dear Nacho.

I forgot to thank him for changing and transforming my life....I have very,very,very fine hair and the extensions have changed everything for me. I have so much more confidence about my looks and I don't feel everyone is looking at my scalp!!In fact they can't see it now.

In hindsight....thank you!!!

I came across this site whilst trying to find a more local salon to one im currently using and with that hopefully slighty cheaper, as it did occur to me that part of the expence may be down to location.....
However this search has not been easy and i'm finding it difficult to find people who campare. I think in this day and age you should have a decent website as to me if you site is rubbish it gives me the impression that you will be to (just in case their are salon people on here!)

I read afew pages ago a name and shame on my current salon and even though as above i admit to looking for more local salon i felt compelled to let you all know that my current salon IS fantastic! I am due to go back to Mark Glenn in Mayfair for the third time and in my experience the hair DOSEN'T MATT! My hair is in lovely condition after three months of wear. It cost £450 for long perfectly blended extensions. My only problem is not spending the money i save for them! I went to them originally as i was stupid and had used clip in hair continuously for many months leaving me with bald patches that make you cry and weak hair so i was willing to have the best money could buy and i still feel i made the right choice it's just i cant afford to pay that much forever.

Sorry to go on just feel very strong about this as read so much rubbish on here!
