Pickles & Co

Now that I have had so many wonderful experiences at Pickles & Co, I simply cannot get my hair cut anywhere else!
The salon has beautiful retro themed décor, with striking black and white striped walls and a comfy waiting area, with a sofa, coffee machine and the obligatory glossy mags. The staff are always to friendly when you arrive, giving a friendly hello and offering to take your coat even if they are busy. I would say that my appointments have been delayed on a few occasions but, as this due to the care and attention the stylists spend on every client’s locks, I do not mind one bit!
I have always had Loren cutting my hair, and she does a perfect job. She talks through my intended style with me, offering suggestions and even finding pictures on instragram as inspiration. Loren has also coloured my hair, giving me the perfect sunkissed look which lasted for a whole year without brassy — genius!
There are so many luxurious touches on offer, from the massage chairs whilst having your hair washed, delicious cappucinos, and range of styling options to finish off your ‘do, that I truly believe that a haircut at Pickles & Co is worth every penny.

Located right next to where I live, Pickles is the go-​to place for me to get my hair done. It’s the only place I’ve been to in Birmingham and I’ve not been disappointed. I booked an appointment easily by just popping in on my way after work and they were able to fit me in at a time of my choosing. I turned up on the day and was offered a drink while I waited (I was early!) so I enjoyed my latte and read some magazines.
After my coffee I was led to one of the chairs and I talked through with my hairdresser Helen about what I wanted. After some discussion, we went ahead. I was treated to a nice head massage while getting my hair cleaned and the chair was a massage chair so it was all very relaxing.
I was very pleased with the cut and I was asked how I wanted it blow-​dried. This time I went for straight hair but I’ve had it curled and styled here before and its always been good.

Pickles & Co is a new hair salon based on Kenyon Street in the Jewellery Quarter.
The salon is large and tastefully decorated, it has a classy feel and is very clean and shiny! The stylists are friendly, helpful and skilled at what they do.
I recently attended a vintage themed night there which was brilliant, they had free champagne & cupcakes (winning combo!) plus vintage clothes stalls and stylists doing vintage hair dos and make-​up. Plus their latest addition, a nail bar, where you can get all the latest nail treatments and nail art plus normal manicures and painting.
It’s a classy establishment, so the prices aren’t cheap if you want the top stylist, but you can save money by getting your hair done by their capable graduate stylist. Prices vary from £26.50 for a cut & style with a graduate, £32 with a senior stylist or £39.50 with the Style Director.
They also specialise in colouring, perms, hair extensions and wedding packages. I heard a mention of a new massage bed on it’s way which sounds good! Keep an eye on the website for updates on new treatments.
Overall a great salon, excellent customer service and skilled stylists and I particularly enjoyed this vintage event so hope that they’ll be doing more of these soon!
