About the Knightsbridge Hair Salon

Our salon is situated on the fourth floor of the luxury department store and London landmark, Harvey Nichols. Pioneering cutting-edge fashion and delivering luxury services since its inception in 1831, the flagship Harvey Nichols store was the perfect choice for establishing our first-class salon services in another district of the capital.

Conveniently positioned in central Knightsbridge, our newest salon occupies an ideal location nestled between the underground stations of Knightsbridge, Sloane Square, and South Kensington. This area boasts numerous world-class 5-star hotels, including The Berkeley, the Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, and the Bulgari Hotel. Renowned for its vibrancy, this London district offers an array of shopping boutiques, delightful eateries, and several cultural institutions, such as the V&A Museum and the Serpentine Galleries.

Nestled in the heart of Knightsbridge, the Harvey Nichols salon is a luminous, spacious, and airy setting meticulously designed to provide ultimate comfort and a luxurious experience. Similar to our flagship Mayfair salon, every detail has been carefully curated to ensure your complete comfort.

Behind the Scenes

At our Knightsbridge hair salon, the behind-the-scenes ethos revolves around more than just styling; it's a commitment to sustainability and altruism. Sustainability is ingrained in our daily practices, evident in our eco-saving taps and partnership with the Green Salon Collective to ensure maximum recycling within the salon. We are proud to transform our hair clippings into booms deployed along shorelines to halt the spread of oil spills—a small yet impactful contribution to environmental preservation. Another initiative we are delighted to support is a scheme which means leftover hair finds a new purpose in the hands of farmers, enriching their compost with its protein and nitrogen content, fostering healthier plant growth. Recycling isn't limited to hair; we conscientiously recycle all our foil too.

Beyond sustainability, philanthropy is a cornerstone of our salon culture. The team passionately supports charitable initiatives such as the 'Little Princess Trust,' Teenage Cancer Trust, The Big Breakfast, Macmillan, and Pancreatic Cancer Research Charity. It's not just about styling hair; it's about weaving together a fabric of care, responsibility, and compassion behind the scenes.

The Services We Offer

Our hair salon offers an array of comprehensive services catering to diverse hair care needs. Our consultations serve as the cornerstone, where our experienced professionals engage in in-depth discussions, understanding individual preferences, and providing personalised recommendations for the perfect hairstyle.

We also offer hair extension services for those seeking volume, length, or texture whilst our straightening, anti-frizz, and curl-enhancing treatments are tailored to achieve sleek, smooth, or beautifully defined curls. Additionally, our diverse range of hair treatments aims to rejuvenate, nourish, and restore the health of your hair, leaving your hair with vitality and shine
