Multi-award-winning creative brand experience agency N2O is transforming an existing hair salon into [Salon X](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pepsi-max-cherry-x-townhouse-salon), a destination where consumers can book free appointments with [expert hair stylists](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/on-your-wavelength) to experience a secret product line. The four-step experience includes shampoo, conditioner, serum and an oil before the service is completed with a blow dry and style of choice.

During their service, guests won't know what brand helped to create their finished look until they go downstairs to the reveal tunnel. To help them maintain their freshly salon-styled hair and uplevel their at-home hair routines, the [mystery brand](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/enigma-launched) will be sending guests home with a goody bag featuring all products used.

Free appointments at Salon X in Soho, London can be booked for a limited time in April, while limited spaces are available.
