Hairdressers in Lee-on-the-Solent

Hair salons, barbers and where to get a haircut

Lee-on-the-Solent has a selection of hairdressers and barbers on and near the High Street, covering the range from traditional cuts to more contemporary styling. For a town of 11,000 people, the provision is reasonable, and most residents can find a salon or barber that suits their needs without leaving town.

The High Street hairdressers include salons offering full hairdressing services for women and men: cuts, colouring, highlights, blow-dries, and styling for special occasions. Several have traded from their premises for years and have built loyal client bases. Walk-in appointments are sometimes available, but booking in advance is the norm, particularly for weekend slots and pre-event styling.

Barbers cater to men and boys looking for a straightforward haircut or beard trim. The traditional barber shop model, with a walk-in queue and a simple price list, persists alongside appointment-based salons. Barbers tend to be busiest on Saturdays and before school starts in September.

Prices in Lee-on-the-Solent's hairdressers are in line with the wider Gosport and Hampshire area. A standard women's cut and blow-dry typically falls in the mid-range for the south of England. Men's cuts and children's cuts are priced accordingly. Loyalty schemes and regular client discounts are offered by some salons.

Beauty treatments including waxing, nails, lash extensions, and facials are available from beauty salons and home-based practitioners in the area. Some hairdressing salons offer beauty services alongside hair, while dedicated beauty salons operate from separate premises.

For more specialist services, including hair extensions, scalp treatments, and complex colour work, the salons in Fareham, Gosport, and Portsmouth provide a wider selection. Some Lee residents travel to preferred stylists in these larger towns.

Mobile hairdressers serve the area for residents who prefer home visits, including elderly and housebound clients. These can be found through local directories, community noticeboards, and recommendations.
