Services
Haircutting
Our precision cutting services form the foundation of every great hairstyle. Using professional-grade tools and techniques refined over decades, we create shapes that complement facial features and lifestyle. Clients receive expert advice on maintaining their style between visits. The service includes consultation, shampoo, and styling to ensure complete satisfaction with the final result.
KeraStraight Treatment
This advanced keratin treatment permanently transforms frizzy, damaged hair into smooth, manageable locks. The formaldehyde-free formula strengthens hair while eliminating frizz for up to four months. Ideal for thick, curly, or damaged hair types, the treatment includes straightening with professional tools and a glossing finish to enhance shine and longevity.
Hair Colouring
From subtle highlights to dramatic transformations, our colour services utilise premium products for vibrant, long-lasting results. Options include root touch-ups, full foils, and creative techniques like balayage. The service includes a thorough consultation to determine the most flattering shades and includes toning to achieve perfect colour balance.
Blowdrying
Our blowdry services create polished, camera-ready styles using professional GHD tools. Choose from classic straight styles, voluminous waves, or bouncy curls. The ultimate package combines a nourishing gloss treatment with expert styling for hair that looks salon-fresh for days. Each session includes a customised finish to suit individual hair types.
Balayage
This freehand highlighting technique creates natural-looking dimension with soft, graduated colour. The service includes custom colour blending and a gloss toner to enhance shine. Clients receive advice on maintaining their balayage between appointments. The process takes approximately 2-3 hours depending on hair length and complexity.

Mandy absolutely saved my hair. After lockdown I'd tried several different home colours and several salons, and I just couldn't get the colour I was after at a reasonable price. Mandy seemed to get exactly what I wanted, did it perfectly, and doesn't charge the world for it. I won't be going anywhere else now!

Gorgeous Hair Boutique is a real gem. Mandy and Shanon really listen to their customers needs. Mandy has been cutting and colouring my hair for a number of years and has helped me keep it in fantastic condition. Shannon puts my hair up if I am going out and every single time I have received so many compliments. I have witnessed amazing hair transformations being created at Gorgeous. This may be a small boutique compared to the large salons but in all honesty we all just sit in a chair so why do you need all that extra space. The team at Gorgeous genuinely care about everyone who steps in their

Firstly the stylist was not forthcoming with an offer to fix my hair, when pressed she agreed to fix it but would not give me a convenient appointment time. If I wanted it fixed I would have to take the appointment. Then they changed the date of the

Had my hair washed, cut and blow dried by Zara and can't praise her enough! My hair was damaged and neglected after lockdown and having a baby but leaving the salon I felt a different woman! Zara is an outstanding hairstylist with high standards looking to create the perfect look. I've had nothing but compliments since having my hair done. I can't recommend the salon enough it was a lovely experience from start to finish. I didn't I have a regular hairdresser but I certainly do now :)

Shannon did an amazing job transforming my hair, i had a colour and cut and could not be happier with the results. She then cut both of my daughters hair, she treated them so well and they both enjoyed the special treatment. We felt fantastic afterwards and LOVE our hair! Thankyou Shannon

If I could love this place (instead of like) I would! They literally saved the day after my appointment elsewhere got cancelled a few days ago! they squeezed me in the same day as my other appointment and were absolutely AMAZING! I suffer with severe anxiety so going to a new salon is extremely daunting for me but the girls here are so lovely. it was a pleasure and I'll definitely be going back! Thank you again! xx
