Our story

A neighbourhood salon with a craftsperson's patience.

New Cross Hair & Beauty grew out of a simple idea: that a salon should feel like somewhere you want to linger. Warm light, antique mirrors, good conversation — and behind it, a team who treat every appointment as a consultation first.

Our stylists work across every hair type and texture, and our beauty room upstairs is a quiet counterpoint to the buzz of the floor below. Nothing is rushed, nothing is off-the-shelf.

  • Consultation before every service, always
  • All hair types, textures and tones
  • Professional skincare, peels, LED and microneedling
Inside New Cross Hair & Beauty Salon — antique mirrors and warm lamplight

Client love

In their words

I often pop in for a wash and blow dry when I'm in London. It's a really interesting, cool comfortable salon. The ladies who work here are very friendly and professional. I would happily recommend a visit.

Annette · Customer

My favourite salon in London! There is not a place like it. The service is outstanding, the interiors are absolutely beautiful and the staff are super professional! I trust only their opinion when it comes to my hair. If you're looking for a new spot, I would recommend this place above all!

Lily · Customer

Had a lash lift from the lovely Renata. Friendly and professional service and my lashes look great! Nice natural lift - will be returning again! Thanks

New Cross Road on a bright afternoon

Rooted in New Cross

Part of the street, not just on it.

We're two minutes from New Cross Gate station, among the market stalls, record shops and cafés that make SE14 what it is. Our clients are our neighbours — students, families, artists and everyone in between.

We support local makers where we can, stock what genuinely works for the hair and skin we see every day, and keep our door open for a chat and a coffee whether or not you have an appointment.

Good to know

Frequently asked

Yes — for colour, lash and brow tinting, lash lifts and HD Brows we ask for a patch test at least 48 hours before your appointment. It takes two minutes in salon and keeps you safe. Facials that use peels, microneedling or radio frequency need a consultation first (facial consultations are free).

Plans change — just let us know at least 24 hours before your appointment and we'll happily move it. Cancellations inside 24 hours, or no-shows, may be charged as our stylists' time is held for you. You can reschedule yourself any time through our Fresha booking page, or give us a call.

We're on New Cross Road, a two-minute walk from New Cross Gate station and served by many buses. There is pay-and-display parking on the surrounding side streets, free after 6.30pm and on Sundays. The salon is on street level with a step at the entrance — let us know when booking and we'll help you in and seat you in our most accessible station.

Five minutes before your appointment is perfect — enough time for a proper consultation with your stylist before we start, so we're clear on exactly what you'd like.

Absolutely. Tell us who you'd like when you book on Fresha or over the phone. If you're new to us and unsure, call and we'll match you with the right person for your hair or skin.
