Hair that still
looks like you
six weeks on.

A small studio of four, built around unhurried appointments and colour that grows out softly. We'd rather do six clients properly than twelve in a rush.

We don't do trends you'll regret in a fortnight. We do the version of your hair you'll still like in the spring.

Colour

Grown-out shouldn't mean grown-tired

Most of what we do is colour, and most of that is fixing the same problem: a hard line four weeks after a tint. We work with softer transitions so the regrowth is part of the look rather than a deadline.

Whether that's a balayage, a lived-in root smudge or just a gloss to knock back brass, we'll tell you honestly how often you'll actually need to come back.

01 Free colour consultation before you commit
02 Olaplex included in every lightening service
03 A written note of your formula, kept on file
04 Complimentary fringe trims between visits
The team

Four of us, and that's on purpose

Small enough that you'll always see the same person, and that they'll remember what you said last time.

Reviews

In their words

★★★★★
First time in years I've left a salon and not immediately restyled it in the car. Elena actually listened to the words coming out of my mouth.

She talked me out of the thing I asked for and gave me something better. I've since sent my sister and my mum.

Priya is the only person who's ever cut my curls without me crying afterwards. That's the whole review.
