About Shanghai Greater China
Shanghai Greater China is a hair salon in London, located on the first floor of its building. The salon operates on a walk-in basis, so no appointment is needed before stopping by. It opens daily, giving visitors a consistent window to get a haircut without planning ahead. As a hairdresser, the salon focuses on standard salon services rather than a wider range of treatments. The first floor setting means clients head upstairs to reach the space rather than entering directly from the street.

Customer Review Summary
The caveat is substantial. One reviewer says a perm left hair over-processed, brittle and straw-like, tangling painfully, and reports an unexplained extra charge afterward with no real apology from staff. Another asked for a simple fade and says the stylist thinned the hair out without discussion, leaving it uneven. A third says the fade and taper fade came out bent and half-finished, so they fixed it themselves at home.

“I am extremely disappointed with my experience at this salon. I went in for a perm, but my hair was badly over-processed and burned. It is now extremely dry, brittle, and feels like straw. Brushing my hair is painful because it tangles so easily, and it has become very uncomfortable to manage. My hair was healthy before the treatment, but it has been left severely damaged. To make matters worse, I was unexpectedly charged an extra £20+ after the perm without this being clearly explained in advance. I felt the pricing was not transparent. The staff’s attitude was careless and dismissive. Instead of showing concern about the condition of my hair, I felt they were more interested in charging additional money. There was no genuine apology or effort to resolve the problem. I cannot recommend this salon based on my experience. I hope they improve both the quality of their treatments and the way they care for their customers.”

“I asked for a simple fade, but instead they took it upon themselves to thin out my hair without any discussion. It’s honestly shocking how far off they went from what I requested. My hair looks uneven and damaged, and it’s going to take a …”
