Why Reinvent Hairdressing At All?
22 years ago, after returning from traveling and working in a wine bar in Tunbridge Wells, Amanda noticed that outside of the hair salon in a relaxed environment, women would open up in several ways...
"Firstly, nearly all women shared the same dislikes in their typical hair salon experiences; confusing price systems, the lack of privacy and being passed between several people, feeling like they're on a conveyor belt."
The second way was most unexpected, happening in the wine bar where Amanda was working. One evening, while chatting with a customer about bad hair experiences over a glass of wine, she asked the woman how she 'wanted to feel' rather than how she wanted to look. From this conversation, Amanda was able to gain important insights into who she really was as an individual, and ultimately, create the perfect style.
With these discoveries we opened our first salon. We created a separate, calm space with sofas to have a relaxed one-to-one conversation (before even going near a salon chair) which builds trust and enables an understanding to create the perfect bespoke look, all whilst relaxing in beautiful surroundings.

Why Charge By Time?
Instead of strict, confusing ‘menus’ i.e‘ half-head of highlights OR Root tint OR all over tint etc.’ our team are free to unleash their creativity and work with their guest to create the best possible bespoke look, using any of the products at their disposal - all without worrying about additional costs and charges.
So how does it work? Our stylists each have an hourly rate from £50 upwards and segments of time in 15-minute increments are discussed with you before making the appointment. That way you already know exactly what the service will cost before coming through the door. We’ll only ever charge less than quoted, never more.
