Salon Assessment

Every Good Salon Guide recognised salon is assessed against a set of criteria that has been developed with the general public, industry and trade bodies.

The criteria are constantly under review, so if you've got a suggestion as to something we should add, please let us know here.

Salon assessments are carried out by our team of highly-trained professionals and recognition is awarded at Registered, Three Star, Four Star and Five Star levels.
More information on what the ratings mean.

After the first inspection, salons are formally reassessed through an annual visit from the assessor to ensure standards are being maintained.  A dated window sticker and certificate can then be displayed in the salon.

In addition to this, salons are subject to 'Mystery Client' visits and client feedback.
