Where can I find well-reviewed salons popular with locals in Portsmouth?

Albert Road and Southsea's Elm Grove are home to some of Portsmouth’s most trusted salons. Locals often mention stylists who remember your name, and results that last through coastal weather. Many places get high marks for friendly chats and genuinely listening to what you want, not what’s trendy.

Do I need to book in advance or are walk-ins okay in Portsmouth?

It depends on the day, but weekends definitely need a booking. South Parade spots tend to fill fast on Fridays and Saturdays, especially for colour work. Weekday mornings are usually quieter, and some smaller salons near North End still take walk-ins if you pop in early enough.

How much does a women’s haircut or colour cost in Portsmouth?

Haircuts usually start around £28, with colour from £50, though highlights and gloss treatments add extra. The closer you are to the seafront or Gunwharf Quays, the more you’ll likely pay. If you're after something more affordable, look out for weekday packages or voucher deals online.

What are the most requested hairstyles in Portsmouth right now?

Beachy waves and natural-looking balayage are all over Portsmouth this summer. Sleek keratin treatments are also big for those tired of the sea air frizz. For nights out in Guildhall or a day at the marina, lots of locals go for shiny blowdries or soft layering that keeps its shape between visits.

Got any advice for someone nervous about their first time at a Portsmouth salon?
