What happens under our light

Colour as a considered craft

Our colourists read the room and the hair in equal measure, so a balayage or a full transformation is planned before a single foil is placed.

Cuts with a quiet confidence

Every consultation begins with listening, and every cut is finished with the kind of ease that survives the walk home.

An atelier, not a waiting room

Walnut surfaces, warm gallery lighting, and an espresso within reach make the hours here feel like part of the treat.

Stylists worth following anywhere

Clients return to the same chair for years, and often the same hands, because trust like that is rarely rebuilt elsewhere.

What people say

Visitors consistently praise the skill and attentiveness of Gielly Green's stylists, with colorists like Masha and Lillie and stylists like Jade and Ella all highlighted for listening closely to client requests and delivering well-blended, natural-looking color and precise cuts. Reviewers frequently mention feeling put at ease, receiving thorough explanations of the process, and leaving with results that exceeded expectations, along with a pleasant salon atmosphere. No recurring complaints are noted in these reviews.

I had a really great experience at the salon. Masha did my balayage and I’m very happy with the result, I wanted noticeable brightness and face-framing highlights, and she really listened to what I was looking for. My hair is naturally very dark so it was quite a technical process, but she was very careful and the final colour looks beautiful and well blended. The whole team was also incredibly kind and welcoming. They made sure I was comfortable. The atmosphere in the salon was calm and professional. Overall a lovely experience and I would definitely recommend.

A truly transformative hair appointment with the genius that is Lillie! I arrived feeling really unhappy with my hair, the artificial blonde tone, uneven streaks, and visible root growth had left me lacking confidence and feeling like my hair needed some serious care. Lillie knew exactly what to do from the start. She took such great care with my hair, thoroughly explaining both the process and how she would achieve a more natural colour. I felt completely reassured and in safe hands throughout. The end result was beyond anything I could have imagined the colour, the balance, and the glow is absolutely unreal!

I’ve been a devoted client of Lillie’s for over eight years, and I will follow her to the ends of the earth because no one else can be trusted with my hair. As a color artist, she is unparalleled, she always nails the perfect mix between warm and cool tones, so my color stays balanced and neutral, exactly what I love. Just recently, she gave me a breathtaking balayage with lowlights, and every single time, she gets the exact balance I need. I never leave with hair that’s too warm, she just knows how to highlight my skin tone perfectly. If you’re searching for a color artist who treats your hair like a masterpiece, Lillie is absolutely the one you need. Plus, the salon itself is so posh, I was greeted with a lovely coffee, and during the wash, I even got a relaxing scalp massage. It was truly a top-tier experience from start to finish!

I recently visited Gielly Green for the first time and couldn’t be happier with the experience. I was in the hands of two brilliant stylists who clearly know their craft. Jade did my highlights and, as someone having them done in London for the first time, she completely put me at ease. The result is exactly what I was hoping for, natural, beautifully blended, and really flattering. I’ll definitely be going back to her. Lillie did my cut and gave me one of the best consultations I’ve had. She really took the time to listen and the finished cut is phenomenal - so flattering and I’m absolutely thrilled with it. Both Jade and Lillie are a real credit to the salon. Highly recommend booking with either of them if you can.

I got my haircut with Ella, and I couldn’t be happier with the result. She was incredibly attentive throughout the whole process, taking her time to understand exactly what I wanted. I really appreciated her careful, detailed approach. Every snip felt intentional, and her skill truly shows in the final look. The salon had a pleasant atmosphere, and I also liked the refreshing shampoo scent. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would highly recommend Ella.
