Your Trusted Hair Salon in Edinburgh
Established in 2007 by Yuk Ching Mathieson, known as Jenny, our salon was founded to address the lack of expertise in handling Asian hair textures among British hairdressers. With over 25 years of experience in Edinburgh, Jenny brings a unique blend of cultural understanding and technical skill, offering services tailored to both Asian and Western hair types. Our team combines traditional techniques with modern innovations, ensuring clients receive expert care regardless of hair type or complexity. We specialise in challenging hair textures, including thick and unruly hair, while maintaining equal proficiency with finer hair. Our commitment to continuous learning ensures we stay at the forefront of hairdressing trends, attending industry conferences to refine our skills.Multilingual communication in English, Cantonese, and Mandarin removes language barriers, enhancing client satisfaction. We pride ourselves on delivering personalized attention, ensuring every client leaves with a smile and a memorable experience. Our services extend beyond standard hairdressing, including niche offerings like Japanese Digital Perms and Permanent Hair Straightening. We maintain transparency in our processes, requiring consultations for specialized treatments to guarantee optimal results. Our dedication to quality is reflected in our use of premium products and equipment, alongside expert post-treatment care advice.
