Hair and Beauty by Hummingbird caters well for the expat in search of a professional haircut in a comfortable environment. Perhaps the ‘by appointment-only’ rule appears snobbish, but in fact it means that you are given the 100% attention that you want. And as an undergraduate student, I can say the fair price that you pay is worth every penny.
I came in with a friend looking to dye my hair, but after a consultation with Tom Yuen (the joint’s celebrity stylist) I was advised that a hair treatment would be best to repair my dry and damaged locks. A chat with charming owner May Cheng confirmed his ‘analysis’ despite a dye-job costing a few hundred yuan more. This is to say that these are honest people who put the customer and their hair first, not profits. We had a lovely afternoon in the salon - the hair washes are to die for! The service is excellent and the staff are friendly. I can’t wait to get my next haircut at hummingbird, and will definitely by trying their salon just across the street!
oh, and they have British vogue.

Another review of "Celebrity stylist" Tom Yuen by "I want everyone to think I'm a celebrity stylist" Tom Yuen.
Real celebrity stylists don't need to log onto the Beijinger disguised (badly) as awe-struck customers and post gushing reviews of themselves.
