About Smart Beauty Salon
Smart Beauty Salon is a hairdresser in London, at 344 Harrow Rd, that offers hair and nail services under one roof. On the hair side, balayage is a recurring service, and colour and treatment work for damaged or previously coloured hair begins with the stylist assessing the hair. The nail menu covers acrylics and infills, including repairs to a broken nail that avoid a full new acrylic set. A lead stylist works alongside other hairdressers on the floor. Visits are by appointment. The salon is open Monday to Saturday and closed on Sundays.

Customer Review Summary
Balayage is what reviewers return to most, with several describing a soft, natural colour that came out exactly as they hoped. They credit the main hairdresser for listening, assessing past colouring, and testing a sample before suggesting a different option. One reviewer with very dry, multi-toned hair also praises the colour, and another says damaged hair was transformed after repeat treatments. Others mention long-standing loyalty, including one who travels a 2 hour round trip, and a nail client who says broken nails are fixed without charge and infills are done without removing acrylics.

“Amazing service! I came to this when my hair was extremely damaged and in an extremely bad state. The ladies talked me through what i needed to do and steps I need to take. I then did my treatment with them and continued returning and my hair is completely transformed. Most importantly I feel super confident with my hair now. They did an amazing job and I have continued to return on many occasions. A huge shout out to Fatima and Fatiha they are the best and I will never go to another salon again. Thank you so much ladies. You are the best in the industry. Xxxxxxx”

“No point booking appointment, booked for 2 and she started my hair at 4 and didn’t finish until 8-9 as she kept tending to other customers. I have the number saved and wanted to look at her experience before going in. Seeing her before and after pictures made me think that it was quiet good, however i have come to a realisation that she lies after the after picture and uses picture from google/pinterest and acts as if they’re her own. As a result of trusting these lies i went in with high expectations and left really unsatisfied but the horrible colour of my hair and went elsewhere to fix it. I will attach some proof. I am extremely disappointed.”

“Have been using this salon for many years despite it being a 2 hour all round journey for me. There isn't anywhere better. Fabulous staff and results. Can't get there as often as I would like but well worth the visit! 💖”

“I’ve been going to Smart Beauty for a long time now & they never fail to make my hair look so good. Fatiha always goes above and beyond and I always leave feeling happy with the results.”

“This beauty and nail salon truly deserves more than five stars. It’s the only nail shop I’ve been to that doesn’t charge you for fixing a broken nail and doesn’t force you to remove your acrylics and get a full new set when you only need an infill. That alone says a lot about their honesty and professionalism. Their prices are far better than any other place I’ve tried in London, and the quality of their work is exceptional — incredibly neat, natural, and long-lasting. Even though it’s not on the way to my home or work, I still come here every time I need my nails done because the experience is absolutely worth the trip. Sanaz, the manager, is genuinely lovely and always makes the place feel warm and welcoming. A rare gem in London. If Google allowed 6 stars, I’d give them 6 without hesitation.”
