Award-Winning Men's Hairdressing in Chelmsford
Established in 2004 by world and five-time British Hairdressing Champion Craig Hubert, our salon has redefined men's hairdressing in Chelmsford, Essex. We moved to our current location at 3 Rainsford Road in December 2021, providing enhanced facilities for both our team and clients. Our innovative model supports self-employed stylists, allowing them to work independently while benefiting from a collaborative environment. Every service begins with a comprehensive consultation to ensure your desired look aligns with your lifestyle. We prioritise safety with mandatory skin and strand tests for colour treatments, requiring 48-hour advance notice for cancellations to maintain our high standards.Our premises also house The Snip, a dedicated men's hairdressing space operating since 1970, and Mr Cavendish Coffee House, offering refreshments in a dog-friendly setting. All appointments require pre-booking, with no walk-in services available. Our commitment to excellence extends to our team, who are trained to provide expert advice on cut, colour, and hair condition tailored to individual needs. The salon's relocation created a larger, more versatile space to enhance client experience while maintaining our reputation as a leading hairdressing establishment.
