About us

When Kim Le-Neveu and Steve Jones opened the doors at Boilerhouse Jesmond way back in 1985, who could’ve predicted that business would be such a success and that hairdressing would very much become the family trade?

Now over 30 years on, after much renovation and expansion at the Jesmond site, and with son Felix and niece Saskia a firm part of the team the time has come to branch out with a brand new Boilerhouse to add to the family!

Felix certainly inherited his parent’s passion for business and hairdressing and has long dreamed of opening a new site for Boilerhouse. Now, alongside cousin Saskia and a small, hand-picked team, this dream has become a reality and the new generation of Boilerhouse has been born.

Colour and blow dry

Appointment verified by SaloniQ Software

I had previously had my hair coloured by Hope a number of months ago and once before by Felix. My hair is thinning due to age and grows slowly. I have started to lose pigment in my hair and wanted to go a chocolate brown. The hair colour after treatment is auburn and does not suit me and am disappointed.
Paying £80 for a colour treatment I expect the stylist to finish the blow dry but my appointment was given to a junior stylist. Not happy with that. Lovely coffee though. Hope is lovely and this is no way a personal criticism, easy to talk to and friendly and warm. Just not happy with my hair.

This was the first time I was visiting the salon and needed a haircut to improve the shape of my hair but not reducing the length. Hope was amazing and listened to what look I was trying to achieve. Even though I was her last client of the day, Hope carefully cut and styled my hair perfectly and exactly how I wanted it to look! I'm so happy with my hair and feel great. I will definitely be back in the trusted hands of Hope.

Nicole was fab. She listened to me, what I wanted in terms of colour and style, how my hair is, how I like it to look, problems I have. She showed me the best way to deal with an unruly fringe when drying my hair.
She was so friendly, as were the staff there. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Nicole and the salon. On the pricey side but you get what you pay for, I think. Thanks.

I travel miles to get my hair cut by Saskia. I always want something a bit different to the previous time and she listens well and properly discusses the options to make sure we know what we’ve both got in mind. I trust her and she cuts and styles my hair in a way that makes me feel great, not just when I leave but for weeks, even months after…. I highly recommend Saskia and the salon staff and surroundings..

I have been going back to Hope for my balayage and cut for over 6 years now. Although I have naturally dark hair she achieved a bright blond colour whilst keeping my hair in top condition. I get complemented on my hair regularly and always feel like I got more than I asked for. She’s an absolute professional in what she does, always makes you feel taken care of and listens carefully to what the customer expects. The salon itself is modern, clean and is a luxury place to relax. I used to be apprehensive in the past when I was getting my hair done and now it it is a relaxing day.
