About us

GAUDIONS (Est. 1998) Hair Salon is an ORGANIC, friendly, welcoming salon, catering for all members of the family. We offer up to date colour services such as an ice blonde balayage, but can also still cut your son's hair ready for his first day at school. We cater for everything inbetween.

We use DAVINES products. Founded in Parma, Italy in 1983 by the Bollati Family, Davines Group started as a research laboratory, formulating high-end hair care for cosmetic companies worldwide. After a decade of honing its expertise, the group created its own brand – Davines.

Brendan started GAUDIONS 27 years ago, alone with a single chair and a handful of customers. We love being in the heart of BISHOPS WALTHAM, and consider ourselves part of the village. We welcome clients from all around Hampshire and believe ourselves to be a leading salon for those in Swanmore, Hedge End and Southampton.

The best haircut and haircutting experience I've had for over 20 years!

This was my first visit and I have finally found a hairdresser who gives that good old fashioned salon experience, Brendan took time to discuss what style I was looking for and cut an excellent pixie cut.
I also love the fact its a nice chilled out salon, thank you also to Emily who gave some expert advice on colour 🙂.

Beautiful and friendly salon!! Mia did a fantastic job, I absolutely love my new colour! The cut is probably one of the best I've ever had, I have been considering a bob style cut for a while, but not been brave enough. So so pleased I went for it today!!! Love it! Thank you!! Highly recommend Mia and the salon.

I am truly amazed by my hair cut today, I picked a complicated wolf cut but Leah did an incredible job and was so kind throughout the whole appointment. I would 100% recommend her to everyone, she is immensely talented, really listens and caters to your wants and needs, and she made me feel so confident!! I couldn’t be happier

My first ever time going to a salon and it was increadible,everybody is so polite and caring. Leah was mine and my partners hairdresser and she was just amazing,as an apprentice she was so informative on giving us the best cut for us,with not much experience with men’s hair she absolutely smashed it,my partner is over the moon with his hair. She answered all my questions with a smile and recommended the best cuts to fit my face,constantly checking im happy with the progress and if I wanted anything changed.

10/10 for all the staff!!
