We are looking for someone for our trainee to gain some experience on. The haircut we are keen to do is a short back and sides. All haircuts will be checked and supervised by an experienced member of staff, and may take a little longer than usual. If you’re interested, please send us a message.

Happy 40th to our head honcho 🥳

✂️ A slightly late and apologetic post ✂️

A little while ago, our apprentice officially qualified as a barber 🎉

And we’re late sharing it. 😬

Because… quite honestly, we had so much faith she’d pass. Watching her work hard and give her best every day has simply become part of who she is. While that says everything about her, it also means we didn’t stop to mark the moment publicly like we should have. 🤦🏾

We’re naturally a salon that puts people and face-to-face moments first. Being present with our clients will always matter more to us than being on our phones, and posting updates isn’t high on our agenda.

That said, moments like this should be shared, and our staff deserve the public celebrations.

She worked hard for this qualification, and we’re incredibly proud of her for achieving it.

A huge thank you as well to for their support, guidance, and the work they’ve put into helping her achieve this milestone — it’s truly appreciated.

And because she’s committed to growth, she’s chosen to progress to Level 3 Hair Styling, focusing on more technical work and problem-solving.

Credit where it’s absolutely due — well done, Chloe, on your hard work and determination 🖤

Massive congratulations. ✂️

How to Bounce Back with GLOWA & Kevin Murphy

While crash diets and weight loss injections can offer fast results, they often come with side effects and one of them being hair loss.

Whether you're drastically cutting calories or using medications that suppress appetite, your body can end up short on key nutrients like protein, biotin, zinc, and iron — all essential for healthy hair growth. This nutritional stress can trigger telogen effluvium, a condition where more hairs than usual enter the shedding phase. The result? Thinning, brittleness, and lackluster texture.

The good news: your hair can recover with the right support.

Here’s how to help it:

1. Replenish Nutrients with GLOWA
GLOWA is a beauty supplement designed to nourish your hair, skin, and nails from the inside out. With marine collagen, biotin, and essential vitamins, it helps refill the nutrient gaps often caused by rapid weight loss — giving your hair the building blocks it needs to grow back stronger and healthier.

2. Revive & Strengthen with Kevin Murphy Haircare
Think of Kevin Murphy as skincare for your strands. Their high-performance formulas, packed with natural actives, help repair damage, hydrate dry ends, and restore shine. Whether you're dealing with breakage, dullness, or thinning, Kevin Murphy products target exactly what your hair needs to feel revived.

Consistency is key.
Just as it took time for your hair to feel the effects of nutritional stress, it will take a few months to fully recover. But by combining internal support (hello, GLOWA) with external care (thank you, Kevin Murphy), you're setting the stage for stronger, healthier, more radiant hair.

Your hair is a reflection of what’s happening inside.
So if you're on a weight loss journey — especially with injections or restricted eating — don’t forget to show your hair some extra love. With the right internal and external care, recovery is possible.

For the last six months, Amelia has been taking time outside the salon to develop her skills and knowledge with Kevin Murphy.

She consistently creates beautiful work from day to day, but this latest style she showcased for her final day. has left us speechless—we genuinely can’t figure out how she did it! It’s the kind of look we love: effortless, understated, but incredibly well-executed.

Amelia is easily one of the most creative hairdressers we’ve worked with. She’ll tell you she doesn’t enjoy hair-up styling, yet every time she does it, the results are incredible and shows off the level of skill and dedication she brings to everything she does.

A huge thank you to Amelia for representing us so amazingly well during her training. We’re so proud to have her as part of our team!

Winter weather can be tough on your hair for several reasons:

Dry Air: Cold air outside and heated air indoors lack humidity, which dries out your hair and scalp. This can lead to brittle strands, split ends, and dandruff.

Static: Low moisture in the air increases static electricity in your hair, causing frizz and flyaways.

Extreme Temperature Changes: Moving between cold outdoor air and warm indoor environments can weaken hair fibers, making them more prone to breakage.

Lack of Natural Oils: Cold weather reduces your scalp’s ability to produce natural oils, leaving hair dehydrated and dull.

Hat Hair: Constantly wearing hats can flatten your hair, cause static, or create friction, which might lead to breakage.

To protect your hair during winter, use hydrating shampoos and conditioners, add on a masque treatment to your usual appointment and use masques regularly at home in-between services. Avoid overwashing, and apply nourishing hair oils. Only use and buy salon quality products, and make life easy by speaking to your stylist, they'll know exactly what your hair needs to reverse the effects of winter. ❄️

Returning and reconnecting with the salon family, has been a reminder of just how much joy and laughter our workplace brings. Whether it’s the light-hearted banter with our clients, or the hilarious moments shared among our staff, our days are often filled with genuine smiles and fun.
There’s nothing quite like the sound of laughter ringing through the salon.

As we step into 2025, like many business owners right now, we’re filled with anticipation for what’s ahead.
But with such wonderful clients and a great team behind us we know that whatever the struggle we'll have fun along the way.
