Medusa Teviot Place Hair Salon Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh

Dion was fab, bubbly and gorgeous. Did an amazing tidy up on my hair. Thank you Medusa for the free haircut which I won through NHS benefits. Medusa is always top!

An excellent styling experience as always! Fraser always listens to what I want and taking everything into account guides me to a style that will suit my hair type! Friendly staff.

Very good service, v happy with the haircut.

Excellent stylist : listens to the customer and very satisfied with my hair outcome! Would highly recommend!

I just adore Kate she is so professional and also great conversation and was simply amazing with my toddler today .
An inspiring lady with lots of creative ideas

Great service. Always very happy with cut and blow dry with Dion. She listens carefully and with great results!

Kate cut my hair perfectly to what I requested, and there was absolutely no pressure to converse, but rather relax, which is knowingly an awkward possible situation in getting your hair done. That being said we had great conversation and the complimentary wine was fantastic. Would definitely recommend Kate and Medusa at Teviot Place!

I gave Dion a few ideas of what I was looking for, and she managed to get it just right! Very happy with my cut!

Lucy always does a great job with styling my hair. I’m happy to have found someone I can trust with my hair. Thank you!

Lucy was professional, helpful and a great cutter

Thoroughly enjoyed having my hair cut by Kylie. She was very friendly and professional. The head massage was amazing, so relaxing

I met Kylie when I got to Medusa for the first time and I would never dream of changing her: she is the best stylist I’ve ever met in my life. Her haircuts don’t require anything: I leave the shower with my hair wet and comb, voila! Don’t need to do Anything with it. She is absolutely amazing in her craft, a class of her own. Moreover, she is the nicest person to be around: kind, polite and full of discreet class. She is one of these people so pleasing and kind: when we want to chat we chat, but when we want to be quiet she is never pushy about chitchat, just so gentle and discreet. The other persons of the staff of the salon are also very kind and they all know this amazing head massage. My favourite place to go, this salon!

All my stylists at Medusa are amazing- if one is away I trust their colleagues to look after me. This was true of Kylie today, whom I saw while Fraser is away. A fellow curly hair girl, she gave me advice for new products to bring my curl back, and Fraser would have been happy with the colour. Great team- always on point.

Great experience, really happy with the result

I recently had a bit of a bad experience in another salon (went for a “trim” that ended up a lot shorter than it was supposed to be) and I really wasn’t happy with the way it looked. I made an appointment with Dion hoping to have my hair put up and out the way for a wedding. Unfortunately there wasn’t enough to put up, but Dion came up with a plan B, curled it (while listening to me moan and hum and haw) and assured me it would drop in time for the wedding and look beachy for the rest of the day. She was absolutely right and it was lovely! Thanks for your patience and for being swift and calm with an alternative.

Kati is an amazing artist! She tamed my horrible curly mane and gave me a beautiful cut. My hair is super thick and curly and Kati knew exactly how to handle it. 11/10 would recommend!

Always love the results with kylie! She is also genuinely nice and makes it a relaxing and enjoyable experience.

Honestly it’s not awful, i think this salon do nice cuts but I was baffled the prices. I had my hair bleached and i’ve been left with blisters all over my scalp... Having had my hair bleached for over ten years this is the first time this has ever happened. I won’t return.

Amazing as always. Kylie listens to what I’m looking for, advises me well, and does a terrific job.

The haircut I received from Poppy is great.
After discussing with her what I wanted, she gave me feedback and ultimately the style I wanted. The only negative points from my visit was that the jackets the salon uses were very loose at the neck, so I had a neck full of hair trimmings itching me when I left--despite being brushed down.
Lastly, something I generally like about going to the hair salon is the atmosphere, and the banter. I didn't get any of that on my visit. Fair enough, everyone does their job their, way, but it did seem a bit quiet--just my own personal preference.
Overall good.

I was so happy with my colour by Dion. I moved to Edinburgh a year ago and have been trying to find the right person to do my hair had hadn’t. I have an all over platinum bleach and it’s so rare for a stylist to get this just right (without the yellow and without tide marks from previous colours). Dion did it perfectly and was really lovely too. Couldn’t recommend enough (especially for blondes!)

Amazing left salon feeling fab, Lucy is great thank you

An excellent visit to Medusa at Teviot today as always. Kylie understands my hair type and listens to what I’d like whilst offering her professional input. Never feel rushed and always attentive service.

Amazing service and cut as usual!

Wanted a refresh style, but still easy to maintain. Fraser listened to what I asked for, really happy with the result

My 5 years old daughter always like to get her haircut from Dion.
Dion is so experienced, she knows what she’s doing. I’ll definitely be going there again for my daughter and for myself too.

Style just as I wanted. Very helpful and friendly. All staff extremely nice

Another lovely cut and colour by the wonderful Kate! Thank you!

I've been a client at Medusa Teviot Place for years, and Kate is the best stylist I've had there. She always does a great job of cutting my thick, curly hair. She is warm and friendly, I always enjoy out travel chats!

Fraser knows what I want and does an amazing job with my colour and cut. His staff are very friendly and helpful.

Totally excellent

Initially when I emailed the Salon I got a very short non detailed response from ***** asking me to come in to talk through what I wanted. His email left little to be desired but in person he was friendly and understanding and put my mind at ease. He then booked me in with *****.
I was nervous about getting my hair dyed and I tried my best to explain what I wanted. When ***** walked away I saw her look at a female colleague and look at me and roll her eyes when she walked to get the colour downstairs - the Salon is covered in mirrors, your customers can see you.
I had asked for a balayage hair with a prominent orange streak at one side and showed ***** images of how I wanted it to look.
What I had specifically asked was that you would see my natural hair colour at the top and for it to get lighter at the ends but for the orange streak to start at the roots. I said the blonde should be warm and surfer chic.
What I got was blonde cold hair almost grey starting nearly at the roots - making it look like I had simply died my hair blonde and it had grown in. The ginger streak colour was excellent but did not start at the root. I'm not sure if I got charged for the blow dry but I was just sat under the heater and there was no styling or blow dry just left till my hair dried naturally. ***** was only excited or showed any interest when the orange streak colour was developing as I doubt she gets to use such vibrant colour that often.
Overall I was made to feel unwelcome and as though I was a nuisance to the team not a customer who was paying a lot of money for their services. I went to the Salon because they have won awards and looked as though they would understand my quirky request.
I panicked when asked if I liked my hair and said yes but in reality it's not at all what I asked for.

Great hair cut and colour and service!

I'm always really pleased with Poppy, she gave me the best haircut I've ever had in August last year and I always go back to her to maintain it. She's really friendly and great at her job.

Good cut and colour

Absolutely fabulous! A truly wonderful experience! And the icing on the cake is that my hair looks and feels terrific!

Overall it was a wonderful experience. I got beautiful caramel balayage. Lucy was really sweet and nice. She knew exactly what I wanted and I was very happy with the final result.
It was a bit pricey though, even with the student discount.

Always have a great cut and colour here. Fraser always lets me decide on the colour and I trust him not to let me go to far out. My cut is always beautiful and I go away feeling really good

Fantastic hairdresser love my cut will be getting my hair done again from Kylie thankyou so much

Dion was amazing- thank you so much! Would highly recommend, especially for people like me who can barely articulate what look they are going for but she managed to do exactly what I wanted :)

I had a wonderful first experience at this salon and left perfectly happy with the haircut and service.

Love my new haircut, Lucy cut my hair exactly how I wanted it, also asked for advice on highlights and got the advice I was needing, thank you for excellent service.

Discussed how I wannted my hair cut asked for it to be bobed can't weat it down as it is a mess there is absolutely no style to it

Very happy with the service, Dion was very professional and helpful with her advice.

Dion, thank you for doing my hair beautifully. I love the way you read my mind and did exactly how I wanted. I'm very pleased and happy with the style. I will be visiting salon whenever I visit Edinburgh.

Great job and you deserve 5stars <3

Hair stylist Dion is fantastic. She cuts my hair exactly as I want it, or better! Highly recommend.

I had the pleasure of Dion cutting my hair and I have to say she understood exactly what I wanted and truly delivered!! Super happy with my hair!!

Dion at Medusa Teviot is amazing. She always spends 3+ hours on my hair and gets it right every time. She is attentive and thorough and I won’t go to anyone else. Always checking in with me to make sure I’m comfortable and liking the color/cut.

Great salon with a hairdresser whom I trust. Fraser knows his stuff and has made going to get my hair done enjoyable. Thanks

I was really happy with how Lucy highlighted and styled my hair and how she listened to me and what I wanted. However, I did feel a bit out of place in the salon and the assistant washing my hair seemed to want to soak my whole face but I’m sure that will come with experience. Overall, I’m happy with the colour and cut I received and will come back.
