The home of inclusive hair care
We believe every texture deserves the same level of expertise, care and professionalism.
From 1A to 4C, every head of hair is different — and that's why we take an individual approach to every appointment.
The Curly Coily Hair Company operates from a professionally equipped, home-based private studio in Bennetts End, Hemel Hempstead. Designed for one-to-one appointments, the studio offers a calm and discreet alternative to a busy high-street salon, with professional facilities and dedicated time for every client. There are no conveyor-belt appointments or one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead, we take the time to understand your hair, your lifestyle and your goals.
With a healthy-hair-first philosophy and education-led consultations, our aim is not simply to make your hair look beautiful today, but to help you understand and care for it long after you leave.

Testimonials
"Absolutely stunning results at this salon, turning my mixed Afro curls into a beautiful curl defined creation. Laverne was absolutely brilliant and took the time to advise me on aftercare also.
I love this salon so much and it's worth the hour commute! Thank you xxx"
— Jacob C
"This hair salon deserves 5 stars and more! In my case, I wasn't sure how to take care of my wavy/curly hair and the
hairdresser, Laverne exceeded my expectations. I was shocked to find out how much wavy/curly hair I actually have - she was very knowledgable and answered all my questions. They take pride in what they do and it shows! Keep it up"
— Afroditi T.
"Lovely service from Laverne! Had a wash cut and blow dry. Cut is amazing and blowdry still silky and smooth days later.
Laverne was warm, friendly and thorough making feel really confident she would do a great job, which she did!
Very pleased. Highly recommend"
