Hair that feels like you, only better.

A small studio of senior stylists giving each guest the long consultation, considered cut, and quiet hour they deserve. No music too loud, no rushed chairs.

A Philosophy

“Good hair begins with a long conversation. We study head shape, hair density, the way you actually wear it on a Tuesday — then we cut slowly, the way the hair wants to fall.”

Considered

Every appointment opens with a thirty-minute consultation. No surprises, no upsell.

Quiet

Five chairs, soft light, and an unhurried pace. Phone calls are taken in the back.

Custom

No formula repeats from chair to chair. Colour is mixed for you, in front of you.

N°02 — The Menu

Services & pricing.

A short, careful list of what we do well. Every service is preceded by a full consultation so the result feels considered, not assumed.

All pricing starts at — final quote provided at consultation.

Cuts

  • Women's Cut £85
    A long consultation, a dry-cut shape, finished wet — refined for how you live in it.
  • Men's Cut £55

  • Children's Cut £35
    Twelve and under. Quiet, gentle, and never rushed.

Colour

  • Single Process £120+

  • Balayage £260+
    Hand-painted, lived-in. Grows out for months without a hard edge.

N°05 — Notes from the Chair
The consultation alone is worth the trip. I have never had anyone ask such careful questions about my hair before they touched it.
— M. C., Hackney
Naomi gave me the first balayage I have actually liked grown out. Six months in and it still looks like it did the day I left.
— J. T., Stoke Newington
Walking in feels like exhaling. The salon is quiet, the chair is warm, and you leave with your hair feeling like itself.
— A. R., London Fields
