Re: Edward James or Charlotte Cave in Balham?

I went to Edward James for the first time on Northcote road last week, and saw Pedro. He did my colour, cut etc and was simply amazing. would thoroughly recommend him, and I love that you get a relaxing massage before your treatment starts. A lovely treat.
