Broken nail 3 days before Xmas ...........aarrggghhhhh !!! Got an appointment the next afternoon. The nail technician was very warm & friendly. Complimented me on my nail polish and even though it was only a build-up, I was treated as if I was spending heaps in the salon. After spending the previous week in hospital, it was great to be made to feel special and pampered.

Approximate cost: $5

We're always happy to help, so we're glad we could accommodate you at the last minute and even better that you were pleased with the result and felt special.

I went for my 1st visit, just yesterday. Scamps were very professional and of great service.
I will be returning to this friendly and helpful group of staff there :)

Approximate cost: $40+

Hi Catherine, I'm glad your first visit was a happy one and we look forward to seeing you again soon.

Hi Catherine,
It's always good to hear positive things from our 'first time' clients because it tells us we must be doing things right. We hope to see you again very soon.

I have been in Adelaide for over ten years and to finally have found a hairdresser that listens and then cuts your hair exactly the way you ask is fantastic. On the spur of the moment I decided to try Scamps and was promptly seen by Lauren. The whole experience was friendly and professional. I even got a discount when I mentioned that my friend had been the week before.

Approximate cost: $33

Hi Sandra,
I'm so glad you were happy with what Lauren did for you because it's always nice to have positive feed back about a staff member. Lauren did her apprenticeship with me and is currently the assistant manager, so I'm very proud of how well she has done, not only with her hairdressing skills but in her customer service too.

I've been coming along to get my hair cut and/or coloured at Scamps for about 20 years. I travel from town to get there. Kim is an absolute champ and I wouldn't get my hair cut by anyone else. I met her when she first started working at Scamps and have followed her progress over the years. People often compliment me on my hair cuts & colour. Even though it is a bit of a drive to get to Scamps, it is worth the effort.

Great to hear you're happy with what we offer. Kim served her apprenticeship with me and was a pleasure to train and has now worked with us for over 15 years. Hope to see you again soon.

Clair is just an outstanding hairdresser and knows exactly how to cut and colour my hair. I really notice when sometimes one of the others do it. But the whole salon always seems so busy that you have to book well in advance

Scamps has been my salon now for many years and every now and then i have been tempted to try elsewhere, just for a change, but i have never been 100% happy and always return to Scamps. The salon is always clean and modern, I LOVE the girls and over the years have seen young girls start their apprenticeships at Scamps and everyone of them have received top training and experience and have all turned out to be fabulous hairdressers and friends. Never been happier! Thanks gorgeous girls!

They always listen to what I want, and provide me with what best suits my needs. When I am complimented on my hair I usually find myself raving about the service and strongly recommending people to go.

Hi Natalie,
Thanks for the nice comments. I notice you say you often recommend people to us so I'm hoping the girls have given you one of our referral packs so we can thank you in a big way.
Cheers,

My daughter and I have been clients for a long long time with Emma (previous Manager) when Emma left to have her baby it was a concern to continue at the same place - not really needing to get to know the other staff before - so it was all risky. We booked for our usual 6 weekly appointment and Lauren took great care of us. then for our next visit Lauren was going to be on holidays. Once again this was a concern. But to our delight Delia, Jess and Mel took great care of us today and we are booked in again with this team in 6 weeks. It does take a long time to establish a good relationship with hairdressers but it is pleasing to know that skills and friendliness is an important part of the Scamps team's . service. Thanks. by Jane

Approximate cost: $350

Hi Jane,
Thanks for the very kind words. I will pass them along to the girls who looked after you and your daughter so well. By the way, Emma will be returning to work soon on Thursday night's and Saturday's, so you can catch up on all the baby news about 'Hudson' then.

Always get a great colour or cut at this salon - all highly professional. Friendly welcoming atmosphere - always come away happy and feeling swish :) Always being asked where did you get your hair done - it looks great and even when I was travelling overseas!

Staff that care about your hair experience, love hair and keeping it healthy, and willing to listen to what you want. A friendly atmosphere in the salon, specials, and even a birthday card! A VIP card means every 8th service is free! Oh, yes, and great coffee too!

I cannot speak highly enough about this "gem" hairdressing salon. The staff are highly trained and the service given is second to none. I personally travel 3 hours (living on the Yorke Penninsula) to attend my appointments......why you may well ask....well the answer is simple, I receive professional service with a smile, the staff make me feel special each time I go to the salon...but topmost I always receive a beautiful haircut and/or colour.I have no hesitation in recommending this Salon to anyone who wants quality and it comes at a very reasonable price. A hairdresser is indeed an asset to any woman and to have one who knows just what they are doing is such a joy... I have been told many times "your hair looks great".....immediately adding the question "where do you get your hair done?" and I proudly tell them that it is Scamps.......a gem indeed.

I have been going to Scamps now for nearly 20 years and would not dream of going anywhere else unless I literally physically could not get there! The staff at Scamps have always been competent and friendly and nothing has ever been too much trouble for them. Additionally, the staff take their time explaining what is available and they give honest and professional advice to their clients regarding options and whether it would suit. I would recommend Scamps to anyone who wants a great haircut and/or colour treatment etc. with superior service by consumate professionals with a smile.

The service at scamps hair and beauty was fantastic. The staff were very warm and welcoming and they really went out of their way to make me feel like I was being pampered. After being laid off at work, I decided to get my hair cut at another salon to make myself feel better, but what I got was a complete hair disaster. I walked into scamps a teary mess (as if things couldn't get worse for me at that time) and was greeted by sympathetic staff who went out of their way to, not only fix my hair, but made me feel fantastic during the process. I will continue getting my hair done at scamps and highly recommend it to anyone wanting a hairdressing salon that listens to your needs, makes you feel a million dollars and pampers you from the moment you walk through the door.

Love the staff and the cuts. At times it is a little hard to get a booking but I suppose it is because everybody just wants to get a hair cut from them.

The price of haircuts is value for money, the staff are very young and are very friendly, ideal for the whole family. The place is a no frill, but is very clean and you are in and out very quickly especially if your time is valuable.

lav 22 Jan 2010

Hi anonymous,
Thanks so much for your positive feedback and I don't know how long since you've been into the salon so you might be surpised, because we had a full make-over a year ago and it's definitely not a 'no frills' kind of salon. The clients think it's great and they really appreciate the FREE cappuccino and the FREE services they get using their VIP card, so I hope you'll check us out again soon.
