Ethical Hair & Wellness Salon in Wiltshire
Sloanes Bespoke Hair was founded in 2004 by stylist Ellie, who envisioned an unpretentious space for ethical, cruelty-free hair care. Her sister Louise, with a background in business and marketing, joined shortly after, strengthening our commitment to creating wearable hair shapes and colours while prioritising guest well-being. Over two decades, we expanded to two locations in Salisbury and Shaftesbury, fostering a sanctuary for creativity and wellness. Our partnership with Aveda aligns with our environmental ethos, offering products that are vegan, sustainably packaged, and free from animal testing. We introduced yoga and wellness classes to complement our beauty services, reflecting our holistic approach.Our team of experienced stylists and technicians deliver personalised bridal services, advanced hair treatments, and beauty-on-demand options. We prioritise work-life balance for our staff, ensuring a warm, professional environment for guests. Our salons blend historic charm with modern chic, providing an unforgettable experience. We continuously evolve to meet client needs while maintaining our core values of ethical practice and exceptional service. This dedication has earned us a loyal clientele who appreciate our attention to detail and sustainable philosophy.
