Headmasters Salon

MAKING OUR CLIENTS LOOK AND FEEL GREAT SINCE 1984

We’re an award-winning family run salon based in Leamington’s historic old town offering carefully crafted cuts and beautiful colour treatments tailored to the individual.

Family is at the very heart of our business, flowing through everything we do to make you feel at home and comfortable. We believe the little touches go a long way; a head massage, feet-up shampoo chairs and a drink made just how you like it.

Our team of seriously passionate hairdressers always go the extra mile – we don’t just love what we do, we love who we do it for.

MEET THE OWNER

I’ve grown up around hair so it’s no surprise I’ve made it my lifelong career. Both my parents were hairdressers, and my dad founded Headmasters back in 1984, making it one of the longest established salons in Leamington Spa.

I took over fully in 2004 and since then have grown the team and the space to what you see today. Our loyal customers are the centre of our busy salon community, many of them staying with us over the years and bringing new generations of their family and friends with them.

I like to think we offer something extra in our salon, giving you a little bit more than you expected to brighten your day.

Pop in and say hi; we can’t wait to welcome you.

KERI - SALON OWNER + ART DIRECTOR

ABI - ART DIRECTOR + SALON FLOOR MANAGER

Abi has been hairdressing for 24 years and with us for 11 of those. She specialises in blonde foil work; no-one gets closer to that root! Her trademark cuts are bobs and short hair and she also cuts gents. At home she loves a glass of wine and a good book (don’t we all!). 

NATHAN - ART DIRECTOR

King of the glam blow-dry, Nathan also specialises in tape hair extensions, balayage and the ever-popular pink toners. He’s been hairdressing for 18 years and cuts both ladies and gents. The life and soul of the salon (and the party) he keeps us all laughing.

MEL - SENIOR STYLIST

TOM - SELF-EMPLOYED
STYLIST

Tom has been with us for 21 years and is another homegrown talent, fully trained by Paul and Keri. He’s our resident gent’s specialist and fabulous with ladies’ short hair. A stickler for the detail he takes his time in making sure every cut is just perfect.
