About us

Hatstand Nelly was created in August 2004 to offer hairdressing with a difference.

It's not just about the cut or colour, although these are delivered with the utmost professionalism. It's also about the total salon experience. Great customer care and individual style advice for individual people, creating great looking hair from brave and bold to silky and smooth.

We listen to you to give you hair that fits in with your lifestyle, is most definitely 'you' and looks great between visits - not just when you leave the salon.

Our aim is to enhance the good stuff and tame the bad stuff!

Our Juice Bar offers fresh blended smoothies, juices as well as Fairtrade coffees & teas while you're here - or just pop in if you're passing to sit in or take away.

Jeni at LiShic Beauty is also based here to help with all your beauty needs - from waxing & make-up to Dermaplaning and Epi 3D brows.

This was seriously the best salon experience I ever had! Charlotte is a truly talented hairdresser! The haircut was even better than what I had in mind! I wear a headscarf so they were very accommodating too! It’s honestly such a friendly place and the whole experience from washing to cutting to blow drying was top notch! Would definitely visit again

First time visit to the salon for a full head of highlights. (When I made the appointment I was asked to arrange the sensitivity patch test required) My appointment was with the lovely and bubbly Brooke, She discussed and helped me choose the colours that would suit me best which I found very helpful and I am very happy with the result. I had a very positive experience visiting the salon today and can recommend it.

So today I took the plunge to get my hair professionally straightened with a relaxer. Why I didn’t do this years ago to tame my unruly curls and prevent so much he’s damage I’ll never know! Wonderful care and attention by the amazing Charlotte. I knew I was in good hands. Absolutely delighted with the results

I had a hair cut , hair treatment and blow dry. I was so relaxed during the whole time. She is skilled and she delivered an exquisite result. I recommended to all of my friends.
