About SNW HAIR SALON
SNW HAIR SALON is a barber shop on High Rd in Ilford, taking customers on a walk-in basis. The shop opens daily, and a wait of up to an hour is common before a turn comes up.

While waiting, customers can sit on a sofa in the waiting area as staff attend to prebooked clients ahead of them.

Customer Review Summary
Waiting to be turned away is the pattern reviewers describe most at SNW Hair Salon: several recount sitting for around an hour only to be told the barber was booked, then handed a business card and told to call back for an appointment, with more than one calling the attitude rude or unprofessional. Close behind, one reviewer describes being charged an extra four pounds despite having arrived on time and waited as instructed. A couple of reviewers also mention feeling ignored on the sofa while staff attended only prebooked clients, without a greeting. One reviewer separately describes the shop as filthy with garbage collected in a corner and advises against bringing kids, though this is a single account. Against this, a couple of reviewers who did get seen praise the haircut and beard shape up as professional and good value, with one calling the price good. The recurring detail reviewers keep returning to is that business card handed over in place of a haircut.

“I waited 1 hour for my turn. When i took off my jacket to get hair cut i was told that barber is booked. This was very rude and unprofessional. I then left the shop saying i will make appointment. This was very unprofessional and rude attitude.”
