Medusa Bread Street Hair Salon Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh

Such a relaxed and friendly salon. Everyone is professional, no idle chat between staff. Always made to feel important. And great cutters and colour specialists. If you're looking to change your hair stylist give them a try. You will not be disapponted. It's personal service every time.

Great hair cut as usual.

Great experience as always. Kate was lovely.

Once again Sarah transforms me, she always gets it just right from cut to colour, can't recommend her enough!
It's always a pleasure to visit the salon,all staff very welcoming,never feel like anything is a problem and they always keep me stocked up with delicious liquud refreshments (a welcome bonus) won't be going anywhere else for my hair cut and colour that's for sure.

Amazing haircut by Kate! Hair left feeling amazing and perfect. Definitely recommend.

I've been coming here for 4 years now and I've never left disappointed. I tend to give Kirsty creative control as I know she'll be honest and give me a colour and cut that suits me.

As always have a fabulous colour and cut at Medusa hair salon. Helpful, friendly staff and wonderful results from Colin! Love coming here.

I went in to Medusa today not expecting much of a change from my hair as it always seems really hard to get the warmth out of my blonde, although the results Ashley achieved with my hair were amazing! Absolutely in love with my icy blonde hair, will definitely be returning to her soon! The deal they have that if you are recommended to a certain stylist by someone or if you recommend someone to them is really good, especially when you're recieving the service you do. Very happy overall!

Kirsty is amazing as usual. Would never go to anyone else!

I absolutely love having my hair cut by Kate. She always know what to do with my unruly hair. She always does an amazing job and always makes me laugh. Love her to bits and can't recommend her enough!xx

Another great hair cut and most relaxing hour out of my day, thanks to Colin x

First time in salon and really pleased with cut and colour. Everyone welcoming and friendly, with bespoke advice and quality service from Laurence.

Normally, it's my favourite salon and I come here every time I need my hair cut. However, this time it was so poorly cut that I can't do anything with it now and it looks ridiculous. Also, my hair is a lot dryer now than it was before the visit, as if it was burnt. I guess I will have to cut it short now for it to look OK.

Very happy with my cut.
Today was my third visit and I appreciate being so well looked after and having plenty time to discuss how I want my hair done.

Visited bread street shop today for an appointment with Sarah for balayage and cut. My hair looks amazing- thank you so much

I highly recommend Jenni. She's very professional, friendly and gave me good suggestions. Love my haircut! Marisa

I have been a client of Medusa's for a couple of years now and I rate them as the absolute best salon I have ever been to. From my first visit to my most recent (today), Kirsty has always looked after me very well and is a great ambassador for the business. As a hairdresser, she is absolutely superb! However, her customer care is second to none. I have visited salons all around the country and never have I had such great customer service. Kirsty is always very accommodating and offers brilliant advice when recommending products. Any products she has recommended, have always been as effective as described (no upselling for the sake of it). I'd recommend Kirsty and Medusa to anyone in Edinburgh!

Lovely Jenni cut and styled my hair. She was happy to discuss with me what I was looking for and make some suggestions and gave me a terrific new look to leave with. Thank you!

Great advice, colour and hair treatment from Jenny. All the staff really friendly. Hope to sample the complimentary wine next visit!

I had my hair cut and coloured this morning with *****. She has always done a good job and I have had lots of compliments. However, this time I felt the colour wasn't what I expected- too big a leap from previous colour and I don't feel it suits my skin tone. In addition my hair looks dry and out of condition and isn't cut as well as it usually is. So disappointed and would appreciate some response to this. Lorna Nisbet

Amazing love my hair will go no where else Kirsty rocks ????

They just know their stuff and are good, genuine people...Kirsten is best colourist in a long line of colourist I have had over 30 years...

Ashley did a great job!

I can't thank Kirsty enough - her expert hands have guided me from tired, fried blonde to a buttery, rich and natural ash blonde. She was also knowledgeable and honest about recommended after care and products.

She was right on every count and even squeezed me in for a much needed trim. My boyfriend even noticed the cut and said it's my best haircut yet...will definitely be back.

Finally, I can be proud of my hair again, Kirsty put a real spring back in my step.

Extremely good experience from new to me stylist.
Took time to understand my requirements and was very intuitive.
Will be back .

I had an amazing haircut from Jo yesterday.
It was my first appointment with her, I am never very good at describing what I want, but I am quite fussy, Jo listened, gave great advise and suggestions as we talked it all through. I had a lovely hair shampoo,condition and fab head massage from Taylor which all made me feel comfortable and relaxed. Jo set to and sorted my hair.
I am so delighted, it sits beautifully, short, soft and feminine.
So thank you Jo, I will definitely be back, I'm delighted. It's very hard to start again with a new hair stylist, so when I initially spoke to Rhonda to make the appointment I felt at ease and happy.
Thank you Jo, Rhonda and Taylor for a lovely experience.

Medusa has to be the best hairdressing salon in Edinburgh. Before coming to live in Edinburgh it was recommended to me and I have been there ever since (4years). Colin (the owner) is a fantastic stylist... who always asks what I want, listens and advises accordingly...... in 4 years I have never once had a bad haircut and have changed my style often. The service is warm and professional, the salon is modern and comfortable and the team of stylists and staff are always friendly and welcoming. Look no further........

Had a great visit to Medusa Bread Street today. Went in with a picture of what I wanted and Kate explained that it would've caused some damage to my hair with bleaching etc. She suggested an alternative and it's turned out fab! Love my new red colour. Great customer service from everyone and will definitely be back!

Excellent very happy with cut and colour

Fantastic service as always

WOW - What can I say another fantastic experience at Medusa Bread Street courtesy of Colin. Wanted a change and change is what I got. It is refreshing to know that you are going to leave the salon looking fantastic with a hairstyle that suits your type of hair and your face shape. Everyone at the salon is so nice and you are treated like you are the most important person to them - cannot recommend this salon highly enough.

Great haircut as usual

Had another great wash, cut and blow dry by Taylor and Jenni. Left feeling and looking just lovely. Thank you x

A really nice and friendly atmosphere. Kirsty who does my hair is absolutely amazing. My hair always looks better than I could imagine everytime she works her magic on it.

I first tried this salon in 2016 after coming across the positive reviews online. The cut I received from Sarah beat all expectations I had for a hair style. With previous hair dressers I always got the feeling they were moulding to their image rather than what I showed them with pictures. Isn't the the case here. It's a shame as I've since moved from Edinburgh but the service is so good that I had to come back during my recent trip to Scotland.
if I don't find a new salon in London soon I guess coming back for the occasional hair cut is also a great excuse to visit the city.

I had a cut and half head highlights by Colin today. I'm delighted with the result. I've been going to Medusa for 16 years and it's always been a positive experience from start to finish. The premises are spacious and fashionable, reception staff are welcoming and friendly, the coffee is great, the head massages a real highlight and the hairdressers (I've had 5 different hairdressers from Medusa over the years) are professional and really care about hair.

I recently went to another unrelated salon due to a clerical mix up and decided immediately after the event that this Had been a poor decision on my part. I returned to Medusa today and it was the best decision I've made. I will keep going back to Medusa.

Had my haircut by Lawrence today very pleased with my new fringe lovely salon friendly professional staff and ty to Chloe aswell for the wash and cuppa ...????????

I had a good chunk of my hair chopped off with Ashley! normally hate getting my hair cut but i felt so comfortable with her, and absolutely loved how it looked after. Will 100% be back, thanks!! x

Always a pleasure to visit Medusa at Bread St. The salon has a very professional air to it, and the staff are so friendly and chatty, it's a great place to visit. They are great with colouring my ridiculously-long hair and it always looks fantastic afterwards - I always get compliments about it in work, and sometimes on the bus too!!

Excellent as always!!!

I have been going to this salon for over a year and have consistently had great service. All stylists are very friendly, helpful and of course brilliant hairdressers. The salon itself is spotlessly clean and they always offer you tea/coffee. I feel in good hands when I am in the salon and have never had a bad experience. I would highly recommend Medusa Bread Street to anyone.

Always excellent service and brilliant haircut and colour by the amazing Sarah!

Really great job yet again dyed and styled beautifully!!!

Fantastic shop, welcoming staff. Have been a customer for many years now and enjoy every time I visit. There is always a lot of attention to detail especially when it cones to your hair.
Colin McAndrew and his team are amazing.

Been to medusa bread street a few times before. Had quite a good chunk chopped off in my appointment today but I am in love with the outcome, service is always extremely good and I have always walked out very happy with the standard, service and money I have spent. The atmosphere is great and the staff are lovely and chatty. 10/10 feel mint, would return again and again.

Staff are all very friendly, had an amazing haircut and colour and was clear the hairdresser truly cared about you and your hair. 100% will be back and couldn't recommend it enough!!

I've been going to Kirsty to get my hair done for years and wouldn't trust anyone else. She understands how to work with my curly/ sometimes frizzy hair and her knowledge of the science behind hair colouring astounds me, you can tell she's really passionate about her job!!

You always get a lovely reception from the staff who work there and nothing is ever too much trouble. I highly recommend this salon!

I'm really pleased with the experience that I had at Medusa. Kirsty was so knowledgeable and friendly. She instantly made me feel comfortable and at ease. She was great at working with curly hair, and I am so happy with the haircut that she gave me. Will definitely come back!

Always get my hair dyed from Kirsty! Love her!! She's honestly a star. can't recommend her enough if anyone is looking to get colour! Especially if you are planning to go from very dark hair to light!! All the staff are lovely at Medusa- bread street. And a special thanks to the lovely girl who stayed back yesterday to finish off blow drying my mega long hair! Xx

Thank you
