HAIR COLOUR
Do you want to liven up your hair with a new colour? We create a huge range of looks from classic colours, bright and creative shades, to balayage, blonding, grey coverage, and colour correction.
As leading Redken specialist colour salons in Hampshire, we use only the highest-quality Redken products to ensure vibrant, long-lasting results.
If you are unsure which hair colours will complement your skin tone and personal style, our experts are here to guide you. During a complimentary consultation, we can help you choose shades that suit you and reflect your sense of style, whether you’re going for a bold or a subtle change.
We welcome clients of all ethnicities and hair types who are looking to transform their look with a fresh splash of colour, so don't be shy... give your local Strands Salon a call!
Please note: If you’re new to colour, have not had colour in the past 6 months+ or are having a complete colour change, you will need a quick allergy alert test at least 48 hours before your colour appointment. Hair colouring is not available to anyone under the age of 16.


CUTS & STYLES
We offer cutting and styling for women and men, including classic haircuts and the latest trends.
Some of our specialties include bobs and lobs (long bobs), short cuts, and long styles. If you fancy a layered style such as the Wolf Cut or Modern Mullet, we make it our business to stay up to date with the latest trends and can advise you about which styles suit your face shape and hair type.
We love getting creative so if you have a prom, party or wedding coming up, our stylists can create beautiful special occasion hairstyles including updos, glam waves, high ponytails and half-up half down styles.
Those who are ready for a transformation might want to come in for a detailed consultation where we can discuss which looks would best suit you. We will fully understand your vision before bringing it to life. We’ll also provide you with expert advice and tips to keep your style fresh and manageable between appointments.
BALAYAGE & HIGHLIGHTS
Strands Hairdressing specialises in balayage and highlights, two of the most popular techniques for adding volume and brightness to your hair.
Not sure how to decide between them? Balayage offers a soft, natural effect with several different tones subtly blending from darker at the roots to lighter at the ends for a sun-kissed look.
Highlights are added from root to tip throughout the hair to give a more structured, uniform appearance. They create added dimension and an overall brightness to your hair style.
The Money Piece - also known as face-framing highlights - are also hugely popular as they provide brightness around the face. Whatever look you desire, chat with your colourist so we can create a hair colour effect that looks great on you.
Whether you prefer a subtle glow or a bold contrast, our Redken colour specialists will help you achieve your vision with precision and care.
From consultation to application, we approach each step of the process with meticulous attention to detail, making sure you’re happy with the results.


CURLY HAIR SERVICES
We know that curly hair requires extra love and attention. At Strands Salons in Whiteley and Hillhead, we’re experts in cutting, styling and caring for curls. If you have naturally wavy locks or afro coils, book a consultation so we can help you with your hair.
We can identify your curl shape pattern and advise you on the best treatments for your hair type, as well as how to minimise frizz and define your curls, so they look healthy and vibrant.
Redken’s NEW Acidic Bonding Curls range is an absolute game changer for anyone with wavy, curly, or coily hair. It strengthens, hydrates, and helps control frizz without weighing curls down.
So, whether you want a wash-and-go look or protective styles, we’ll help you find the perfect option for your lifestyle and hair needs.
Please feel free to call us or you can book your complimentary consultation easily online.

FABRIQ HAIR SMOOTHING
If your wavy hair feels unmanageable, or you’re struggling with dry, dull or damaged hair, we offer a hair smoothing treatment that banishes frizz for up to four months.
We use the award-winning Fabriq hair smoothing treatment which repairs, strengthens and smooths hair. Fabriq combines proteins, amino acids and polymers, leaving you with a vibrant and shiny look.
This keratin treatment is suitable for all hair types, even bleached and coloured hair. What's more, it’s cruelty-free, vegan, and doesn’t contain nasty chemicals like formaldehyde, sulfates, and sodium chloride often found in other hair care products.
After your treatment, we recommend waiting 48 hours before washing your hair to let the treatment set in, especially for very curly locks. Always opt for a sulfate-free, sodium chloride-free shampoo and conditioner to preserve the keratin.


HAIR EXTENSIONS
If your hair is thinning, or you feel like it’s taking forever to grow out, Zen Hair Extensions are a hassle-free way to add volume and texture to your locks in just a matter of hours.
We offer two types of extensions:
Zen Hair Tapes: These lie flat against the hair and fit in seamlessly with your natural locks. They last up to 8 weeks, with maintenance required every 6-12 weeks.
Nano-Ring Extensions: Made from strands of real human hair, the Nano-Ring is held together with a strong keratin bond tipped with a small metal loop. If properly cared for, this product will last a minimum of 6 months, if not longer.
With extensions, you open up a whole new world of possibilities. If you've always wanted to try balayage, ombre or a brave new colour without colouring your natural hair, why not try it with extensions?
Plus, longer, thicker hair offers some great styling options from cascading curls to a cool high ponytail!
WEDDING & SPECIAL OCCASION HAIR
We know that your wedding day is one of the most important moments of your life, that’s why we’re here to make sure your hair looks picture perfect.
We create beautiful hair designs for brides, bridesmaids, flower girls and the mother of the bride and would be delighted to come up with a bridal package to suit you.
Our wedding hair creations including upstyles, half up, half down styles, wavy bridal hair and vintage looks and our team will work with you to make sure that the style you envision compliments your dress, accessories, and overall wedding theme.
When it comes to special occasions, we also create gorgeous looks for proms and parties. Show us pictures of your dress or outfit so we can come up with a look that ensures you are the belle of the ball.
Please book a consultation in advance so that we can get to know you and your hair vision and keep your special date free just for you.

Redken Damaged Hair range: We use a range of Redken products to treat damaged hair, including conditioners and leave-in treatments that hydrate, soften and increase shine.
In-Colour Bonder: An in-colour bonder is essential with any colouring treatment, in order to strengthen and protect your hair.
