Client Testimonies


I have just had my second successful appointment with Freedom Hair, the skill and professionalism of my stylist, Irving, was superb. The style was exactly what I wanted and the quality of finish was perfect.

The staff are friendly, approachable and extremely well trained. The premises are stylish and immaculately clean,

I will continue and look forward to using Freedom Hair in the future.

Donna Mitchell, Angus, January 2008

I am writing to express my sincere thanks for making my visit to your salon so worthwhile and enjoyable. Your care and attention and resultant hairstyle gave me such an uplifting feeling of wellbeing.

My thanks, also, to your staff for their attention and welcome.

Joyce Duncan, January 2008

I recently came into your salon for a cut and blowdry. I found the whole experience very professional and a great service. I liked the fact that you sat down with me at the beginning for a consultation and went over exactly what I wanted to do with my hair. I found this to be very helpful in finding the exact cut. I am now hoping for a perm in the future so know where to come!

Thank you for a great service provided!

Carrie Anderson, February 2008

I am delighted with my recent hair re-style and especially pleased with the colour. Irving’s experience, innovative ideas and advice gave me the confidence to have a change. A number of my friends have commented positively on both the cut and the colour. I would highly recommend a visit to Freedom.

Margo Murray, February 2008

The service is very personal and I love it.

Your staff have the knack of making you feel very comfortable and that they care about you. When they welcome you into the salon you really feel they mean it and they remember who you are when you return for your next appointment.

My hair has totally changed – it’s great meeting friends I haven’t seen for a while as I can see that initially they don’t realise that it’s me and then I get “you look so different” “love the new look”

In addition the condition of my hair has been greatly improved. Going to the hairdresser is something I really look forward to. Thank you.

A Testimony from a Nervous, but satisfied Client


Lynne McGinnis at Freedom Hairdressing

With hair that required special attention I was a nervous customer visiting Freedom for the first time. I was immediately struck on entering the salon by a sense of calm and peace. This was achieved by clever use of light and space and décor.

After consultation with Creative Director Irving Miskell-Reid I was put into the capable young hands of Lynne McGinnis. A kind and caring person, Lynne put me at ease by explaining the procedure to me. Because of the coarseness of my hair and its condition it would take two or three sessions to get it up to scratch. Once I knew what was required I was able to relax and talk freely to Lynne.

I was impressed that even though everything seemed to be going well Lynne noticed that an area of re-growth had not taken and she immediately set about correcting this. She worked diligently and quickly and nothing was too much trouble for her. I can heartily recommend Lynne, not only to the shy and nervous like I but to anyone who wants to be made to like good in a warm and caring atmosphere.

Thank - you

Male Customer Perspective

Going into Freedom Hair with Irving is a really worthwhile and relaxing experience.

After years of having my hair cut in other salons I have found this salon friendly and comfortable to be able to have a chat, a cup of coffee and my hair cut in these surroundings.

Although my wife has had her hair attended to by Irving for many years I had reservations about getting my hair cut here but this has all changed because

Irving and his staff are very helpful, friendly and hake it a pleasure to return on a regular basis

I have been a client of Irving Miskell - Reid and Freedom Hairdressing for many years. I am always relaxed and confident when I go to have my hair done, as I know the result will be first class. More recently, it has been interesting watching how Irving has transformed the new premises into a bright modern salon with his own personal and artistic style.

On a recent salon visit, after a consultation with Irving, I was pleased to find out it was Sarah McDonald who was to be colouring my hair. In the year that she has been there, I have often chatted to her as she did my hair, and found her to be helpful with advice, and very enthusiastic about being a hairdresser. It must have been quite difficult putting two colours of highlights and then a semi – permanent on my hair, but she did them with ease, and the results were amazing. They had been positioned so well, I could not wait to show my hair colour to my friends.

My hairstyle was completed when Irving cut my hair into the new style we had discussed. As usual he gave me advise on how to style and care for my hair. I always recommend Freedom to my friends and its heart warming to see a new generation of hairdressers being trained by Irving’s experience and commitment.

Many thanks

I have been a very satisfied customer of Irving for many, many years. I can guarantee if you make an appointment to have a consultation with Irving you will not be disappointed.

You will be welcomed as you arrive, listened to and advised on every detail to absolutely make sure you style, cut and colour suits you and your lifestyle to perfection. You will never be persuaded into walking out with a hairstyle you are uncomfortable with. You will be given advice on styling and should you need to have a little cut from the fringe, Irving will encourage you to pop in.

Irving has worked extremely hard to achieve the ambience in `Freedom` and its excellent reputation which is second to none in Dundee and the surrounding area.

The products which the salon uses are first class and he is totally in touch with the environment.

Irving gives back to hairdressing as much as he receives, he is constantly training the next generation and he himself updates his skills through the numerous training seminars and training courses.

His reputation and commitment to fundraising for good causes is exemplary.

I have no hesitation in recommending Irving and his staff

Go on give Freedom a try, you won’t be disappointed.

Thank you
