I booked a last min appointment, as was attending a family function and wanted my hair nice on the day. I had let my hair go severely I felt so embaressed. Kevin cut my hair styles nice, with my hair is a challenge. He didn't talk much bit actually i prefer that a bit and shows he's focussed on his work. I would like to go again but I love in Kent. Bit recommend that salon. Good value for money.

A first visit, taking the opportunity to have a haircut and shop. My hair needed sorting and I felt embarrassed about it! Thank you to Romina for an excellent cut and for making me feel comfortable from the minute I entered to leaving. Much appreciated the chit chat - and helpful tips, my daughter did too! Will come again!

Had my hair done by Zahra Sah today and cannot fault her at all. She was really friendly and really reassuring - it was almost like she knew that I had been nervous about letting a stranger near my hair! I needn't have worried as she was lovely and I left the salon with fresh ends, soft and silky hair having gone in with my hair unbrushed and in a bun. What I really liked most is her knowledge of the treatments, I had booked a Kerastase scrub and she advised against it and recommended the Fusio Dose instead. I'm not in Reading often, but I will definitely go back to her if I can!

I've been going to Rush for nearly 7 years. Always a great experience in this Rush in Reading. Samanta is brilliant for colour, blowdries and knows exactly how to cut my very curly hair. There isn't a nicer team in a salon in Reading, they always go over and above and are so friendly and welcoming. Wouldn't go anywhere else!

Coming out of lockdown I had the pleasure to treat myself to a highly professional, and friendly haircut session at Rush Hair. After working with the hairdresser about the details of the style I wanted to go for, and losing about a pound of hair, I feel like smiling whenever I look into the mirror.

Just had an appointment with Romina and honestly have never been happier with my hair. The salon was very clean and I was given clear instructions on where I could sit and the procedure to follow. I have not had my hair cut since lockdown begun and was feeling a little nervous but Romina made me feel welcome and relaxed. After planning to have a wash and cut I got talking about styles and colours and decided as Romina had time to to dye my hair as well as restyle. I am so glad I did. Romina was chatty through out giving lots of helpful hints and tips on keeping my hair look amazing. I can't recommend Romina enough 5* service and an asset to the rush team.

I had an amazing experience with Romina, who is a very nice and kind person and also a high level professional. I had an issue before with my hair and I was very unhappy, but the costumer service gave me so much attention and effort to solve my problem. I’m very happy and satisfied about the service and quality offered. I truly recommend.

Andi did a flawless job with my hair colour and styling. I had asked for a slightly unusual style (black and silver) that I was worried I wouldn't find a stylist willing to do. However, he did it with complete enthusiasm and I absolutely adore it. Would highly recommend him to anyone wanting any 'out there' styles. Everyone at Rush is lovely and the whole salon has a great atmosphere too :)

Had an amazing cut and colour with Consultant Remina this afternoon. Have never walked out of the hairdressers so happy. Went from blonde to copper and Remina listened, understood and gauged what I wanted perfectly! Even stayed back later to get it perfect when the first take wasn't quite bright enough. Great chilled out vibe in the salon. 100% Going back and making this place my go-to. Thank you Remina! Had the best evening thanks to you <3

I've been visiting Rush Reading for almost a year and I couldn't be happier with that decision! Andy has done my hair all 3 times I've visited and he has completely transformed my hair each time. I've been going for crazy colours, and everytime he's completely taken in my ideas and worked with my hair to achieve the best possible outcome, I always leave feeling like a star! Andy is so talented at what he does, I couldn't reccomend him enough, he's also honest with what he is able to do with your hair, (I have naturally very dark asian hair), he's always taken my specific hair into account when I want to try a new colour! Super friendly too, the hours fly by while chatting to him about anything, again I couldn't reccomend the salon enough; The staff are lovely, professional and fantastic at what they do!

Had balayage & a cut with Louise today and my hair has never looked so nice! Louise is a perfectionist and spent almost 4 hours ensuring that my hair was exactly how I wanted it which did include a colour correction - thank you so much, will definitely be back!

Louise has totally transformed my hair in the two years I’ve been coming here. Started off with dry, tangled, couldn’t get a brush through it hair, complete with splatterings of stuck in oil paint and a faded home dye job. And now, not only do I have a lovely balayage which complements my natural hair colour but can actually get a comb through it..She’s like my fairy godmother! Couldn’t recommend more!

One of the best cuts I've ever had!I went into Rush hair to have a trim after some serious chlorine damage to my hair. When I arrive the manager was super friendly. My hair stylist was SJ and she was an absolute saint. She was so nice to talk to and gave me one of the best cuts I've had. Great styling for face shape and hair weight.I was really worried about the damage to my hair and SJ was able to recommend a number of great products. She even brought manager over to give a brief consultation on how to continue treatment. I really appreciated how attentive they were.I would recommend this salon and SJ's services. I will definitely be back!

The salon is bright and clean.I went in to have a wash, cut and blow dry, and I'm extemely pleased with the results.The wash was not rushed, and also received a mini head massage when getting my hair conditioned, which was very relaxing.From start to end, Samantha was polite and courteous, and took me through every stage of my cut.It's definitely a place I would revisit when in the area again.

They staff were so friendly and amazing.I had such a bad experience in a different hairdressers where they ruined my hair and Ruben completely transformed it for me meaning I could actually walk around with confidence and it restored my trust in hairdressers again. He tested everything and did it all properly, he put me at ease and talked through everything and I can’t wait to go back to have my next treatment and complete the transformation! He’s great and knows exactly what he’s doing. I wouldn’t go to anyone else for my colour now.

I went to the salon last week to do highlights. I never had any highlights in my life so I was quite concerned how it will turn out. I have long hair and I am very fussy about my hair. I had an appointment with stylist Sam. She was friendly and professional. I loved that she is knowledgeable and she suggested sombre, which turned out awesome. Very happy client. I would recommend Sam 100%

I had my hair done there yesterday and it was a really good experience. I arrived some minutes before my appointment and I barely had to wait at all to be attended. All the stuff was su-per nice and the woman (I hope I remember her name) that cut my hair was super chatty and profesional. She was genuinely interested in what I wanted to do, she offered me a drink... All in all a really good experience. Also it was my first visit to the saloon, therefore I had a 50% discount. As a suggestion I would may be recommend to lower the prices, the haircut without the discount would have been really expensive and I don't think I would have gone there without the discount. But it is a really nice place!

I have been a customer at rush for approximately 5 years, and have kept to the same stylist, Louise, everytime. Louise remembers how I have my hair done, and provides an exceptionally amazing service! The staff are extremely friendly, understand what you want done to your hair and I have never left unsatisfied. I would highly recommend Rush, especially Louise!

I had my hair highlighted, coloured and trimmed today by the lovely Louise... I must say I was extremely nervous as I am one that prides my hair but more so my lengh.. I expressed this with Louise who was so calm and understanding she made sure I was happy at every stage... Louise provided me with loads of knowledge on product information and took time to explain the product not just suggest! Needless to say I am VERY happy with my end product and finally happy to know that there is a hairdresser that listened and DIDN’T cut loads of my hair off.. I highly recommend rush and even more so Louise 😊

Always a great experience in Rush Reading. From the moment you walk through the door you're welcomed with warm smiles. I had to wait a little for my appointment, but not to worry as I was served a lovely glass of red wine. Before long I was whisked to the chair where Lauren listened intently and offered suggestions to insure I had the haircut I wanted. Washing my hair was an amazing experience with a head massage that almost put me to sleep! Wasn't long before my wine glass was topped up and Lauren was cutting away.I've got crazy curly hair and Lauren was able to deliver the right balance of a trim, but making sure the style was on trend. The styling products (Kerrestasse) were perfect keeping everything in place.Highly recommend Rush Reading. If you have curly hair, then this is the best place in Reading. I am sure it's also good for other hair types, but I don't have experience of that!Worth joining Rush and booking via website to make sure you take advantage of their special offers (50% off for new customers)!BTW, there is easy parking close.

Great customer service and most importantly I left very satisfied with my hair cut. I'm very fussy with my hair and have had bad experiences with other local barbers, so having an open dialogue about the cut and nailing what I asked for was much appreciated! Felt very welcomed in the salon and all the staff were friendly. Definitely booking again. Thank you Lauren!
