Step inside our newly redesigned salon and experience expert colour, flawless extensions, and styling that lasts - all in a space where every detail inspires.
not just a salon - an experience.
We’ve reimagined the salon experience with a modern, Middle Eastern twist.
Inspired by the textures and charm of Saudi Arabia, our space blends natural stone finishes, organic curves, and statement details - from our rock display stand to double-sided “ruin” mirrors and a ceiling divider that feels like history reborn. Every element has been designed to make you feel inspired the moment you walk through the door.
LOCATED IN BILLINGHAM, JUST MINUTES FROM STOCKTON-ON-TEES & MIDDLESBROUGH.

Make sure all products are thoroughly rinsed to avoid product build-up.
Always separate hair extensions from each other while styling to prevent matting.
Comb/brush extensions from the ends, working your way up to the root to avoid shedding; please see stylist on recommended hair extension brushes.
