Medusa Hair Salon Stockbridge, Edinburgh

31 Raeburn Place, Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh, EH4 1HX

About us

Medusa like to do things differently - we're an award-winning Edinburgh hairdressing salon consistently creating new styles at the vanguard of fashion, but all the while exuding a genuine warmth and welcome. And that's because we obsess about hair, and equally, about how to make every minute of your time with us memorable (for all the right reasons). Sit back, have a cappuccino, have a wine, or have a funky organic tea if you fancy. From the second you step in the door, we want to make you feel at home, and get to know you, your hair and how you want to feel in your new hairstyle.

No rush, no fuss, no problem.

Let us make your hair rock.

I was a bit apprehensive about going back after so long, but everything was very well managed, from meeting me at the front door, taking my temperature and generally making me feel at ease.

SO relieved to be looking like my usual self again. It was lovely to see Kat after such a long lock-down, and she provided her usual five star-plus service. Totally impressed with the measures Peter and the team have taken to keep us all safe. Thanks, Medusa!

Nicole is a complete tonic! I really didn’t want to pay that amount particularly with the £7.50 Covid charge which I think is extreme! We have all lost money we are all struggling! However seeing Nicole is always just medicinal for me why has no hair dresser before ever thought to take a before and after she did that the first time I went to see her and made me feel like a superstar. It’s not just that though.... with Nicole you get down to earth honest banter in the new town and that’s refreshing. So if she works for Medusa and their extortionate prices then I’ll pay them and stick it on my credit card because she’s worth it for my mental health x
