Medusa Teviot Place Hair Salon Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh

6/7 Teviot Place, Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh, EH1 2QZ

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.

When I went into the salon I felt a bit nervous as I haven’t been in a salon for a long while due to Covid, I was made to feel very relaxed by Zara and the girl that washed my hair, I loved my cut and blow dry, I felt that relaxed I booked in again for a few weeks time.

She made me feel that my hair is back to life. I’ll definitely go again and again. I also like the place because it offered me the privacy I need as a hijabi girl.
