Karen Johnson owner of Review, and husband Gary have transformed their 3 story premises on Nelson Street in Barrow in Furness into a complete "High street Retreat" for guests. Their salon has three floors, a beauty studio on the top floor where clients get pampered from top to toe. On the middle floor you will find a relaxing coffee bar selling fabulous home made vegetarian food and scrumptious home made cakes.

Returned to Review in November after short break and I'm glad to be back!!! Karen is a fabulous cutter as she was trained by Joel she's bound to be excellent!!! Would recommend to anyone! Norma P
Been going to see Sam for my colours for years due to the simple fact she gets it perfect everytime and knows what suits me! Got to say that I've been treating myself this week to the other excellent services Review have to offer; been in twice this week for a super cut by Gordon and just got back from a 'must have' indian head massage from Britney! "same time next week Brit"?! No recession, fuel crisis, government cuts can put a price on feeling great can it! Well done "Team Review"!
