The Best Beauty Salons And Hairdressers in Crossways, Dorset, United Kingdom (2025)

Deb never fails at giving top quality service and beautiful nails every visit. I don’t know where I’d be without my regular appointment with her. We always have the best chats and she’s most certainly cheaper than a therapist!!

Absolutely love having my nails done at Panemorfii nail boutique. The salon is pretty, with tasteful décor & healthy beautiful house plants that add to the lovely ambiance. Debbie is always welcoming and friendly… and I enjoy a good chat with her. And of course my nails always look fabulous.

Very professional, 2 different hairdressers in the last few years. Both excellent! Always a good experience xxx

I use here regularly to see Anna who i have been with for a couple of years, she is really good and i'm always happy with my hair on leaving.

Was very impressed withe service my lovely hair cut.

Absolutely top service, a great team, you really feel looked after

Can’t recommend Salon no.12 enough. After a horrific colour experience by a well known Salon Suzannah saved Christmas for me and not only corrected my yellow hair disaster to a beautiful ash natural looking blonde. Having had my hair turned purple then put in a bleach bath my hair anxiety was high! Suzannah worked with confidence and made me feel immediately at ease that she knew exactly what was needed. New movie title the Hairdresser that saved Christmas! 🎅

A lovely relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, in an immaculate salon. Stylist was very helpful and talented. First time I've actually enjoyed getting my haircut. Will definitely be back.

I love this salon! Suzannah is wonderful, knows exactly what to do even if I don’t know what I want, she listens to my ideas and adds her own so I get the perfect haircut every time. The salon has a really nice vibe, everyone chats to you and you’re made to feel so welcome. Very reasonably priced too! Thank you for a lovely haircut!

I could not have chosen a better person to ask to do my hair for my wedding and also my bridesmaids. Communication with Suzannah was an absolute breeze and she was so calm and patient with my lack of decisiveness! We had a hair trial a few weeks before the big day, which made it all the more exciting and I visited the beautiful salon a couple of times prior to the day for my daughter and I to have a trim. She was also brilliant with my daughter who is 4 years old and not usually great at sitting still! On the day itself Suzannah travelled to our wedding venue and managed to do not only my hair, but six of my bridesmaids (with some help!) and timings couldn't have gone smoother. Suzannah is also such an easy person to chat to and she was just a great personality to have amongst us all. We were all so pleased with the outcome, especially me; I couldn't get over how lovely my hair looked. Thank you for all your help, I couldn't have asked for more. (Photos: Hollyhock Photography)

I'm new to the area & was recommended this salon; Amber did a fabulous job, I had a very good consultation to discuss colour options, I am so pleased with the outcome, thanks Amber, see you again soon!

Just had my hair cut here for the first time today. Beccy was amazing and talked me through step by step of what I wanted my hair to look like - I didn’t even have to show her a picture! Lovely atmosphere and great service. Will be back again. ❤️

Wow! I messaged to have my hair done, with in 24 hours I was in the salon for a consultation, that evening all was in place and a few days later my hair was transformed I wanted it done ASAP and it was and saying that! A TOP job was done and couldn't fault the service and just how amazing the salon was . Thank-you for making me feel great!

I maybe classed as being biased as my wife owns the business but please make a booking visit yourself and make up your own minds on how good of an experience you will have. Covid compliant saloon.

Really good salon. Have been going there for years. The staff, who are lovely, do their best to fit you in.

Friendly staff, always a nice welcome. Highly recommend

Great hairdressers, always listen to what I want and very good with my hair highly recommend.

Had my lashes done today from the lovely Loren. 10/10 experience. The salon is a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Absolutely love my lashes so thank you Loren & the team🤍

Kelly & Hope recently did the makeup for my Wedding and we were all over the moon with the service we received! I had a makeup trial before the Wedding which was really enjoyable and helped to give us an idea of what we wanted to do on the day. Kelly & Hope were amazing on the day and made us all look incredible! We received so many compliments and they provided (as always) a professional and friendly service. It was lovely having them at the venue with us as we were getting ready and everyone’s makeup looked amazing all day long! I cannot thank Akemi Spa enough for helping us ladies all look fab on my big day! Thank you!

The pride of Dorchester, Akemi Spa is a treat for the mind, body, and soul. Upon entering the spa I was immediately engulfed but the warm vibe. The owner Kelly has an infectious smile that says, “you’re in good hands.” The massages are more than enjoyable, they are a health necessity if rejuvenation, balance, and relaxation are your goals. I highly recommend a day of pampering and self care. Get a mani and pedi! Slump in and prance out, you won’t regret it! Prices are reasonable, service top notch, staff professional, and welcoming. Don’t go to Dorchester without visiting Akemi Spa.

I support a resident to have her nails done here. All the staff are so lovely and treat her very well. She always feels good when she leaves there and shows everyone her nail. Would recommend these lovely people to anyone.

Booked in a nail appointment, prior to my holiday, two weeks on going strong! I also booked in very last minute for eyelash curl and tint. Wow!! Stayed late to fit me in (as I’d been let down and had limited availability. The care, kindness and attention to detail is outstanding. Kind, thoughtful and genuinely a wonderful human. 110% recommend. (Picture attached is nails after two weeks of application)

My first visit. I had a beautiful gel manicure with Lena. I’m really impressed with the finish. The salon is lovely, very welcoming, as are both Lena and her Mum. It was a real treat. I can highly recommend. I’ll definitely be back.

I highly recommend Beau’s Beauty as I have been twice to have my nails done and a pedicure. Lena and her mum are lovely and make you feel so welcome. Ive never had a pedicure before and it was amazing so relaxing and will definitely have more done there. It’s a warm welcoming and relaxing place to get all your beauty treatments done.

The most wonderful experience as always! I have been to Beau’s Beauty & Aesthetics four times and will continue to return especially for my Manicures and Pedicures. Lena is so lovely and my most recent autumn nails are stunning! Every treatment Lena provides is exceptional and to the highest standards. I also enjoy our conversations; with Lena and Helen (her Mum) such a welcoming, friendly and homely-feeling salon! Absolutely recommend!

My first CACI facial (got a block of 10 as a birthday present) and Sharon was brilliant. She talked me through what the process and checked I was OK throughout. And it was great - restful and pampering. I don’t look twenty years younger (yet!) but my skin is glowing and I feel very relaxed. Can’t wait for session two.

I am new to Salon on the Square and Georgie cut my hair really well. I actually felt for the first time in ages the person cutting understood my hair (fine and a bit sparse!) and listened to what I wanted and what didn’t work. I will be booking another appointment. Thank you!

First time visiting today. Lesley came highly recommended, and as I found out, for good reason! Lesley treated me as an old friend, whilst remaining professional - which really put me at ease as I was very nervous coming to a new place. She did a super job on my hair, listening to what I wanted whilst giving her own opinion on what would look best. Thank you so much.

What a fabulous salon!!! I moved to Dorset from West London last year, and was concerned about the quality of hairdressing in a country village, being used to going to Trevor Sorbie. I needn't have worried when I chose the Salon on the square.... A beautiful environment, highly professional stylists and colorists... I had balayage and a really sassy bob cut.... I look fantastic!!! I had my first cut and colour with Claire.. She's brilliant (and sweet and funny), then, as she wasn't available for colour next time, I was looked after by Poppy, who was equally accomplished, and so, so lovely! Back again today for an even sassier and shorter bob with Claire again, and, after cutting my hair beautifully, I asked for shorter she obliged with a smile - even though she missed her lunch, due to me being THAT customer... You know, the one that's a bit of a pain in the A**. Bless her. Go.. Have a great experience!

I had a scar on my eyebrow from cancer removal. I can honestly say you can barely tell now. So pleased with what has been done. Louisa is very warm and friendly and put me completely at ease. I would highly recommend!

I have just had my shaded eyeliner topped up by the lovely Natasha and I love how beautiful the results are. She is so passionate about her work and ensures the entire process is smooth and comfy throughout. Always an absolute pleasure coming into the clinic as the whole team are so friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend and a very well deserved 5* ❤️

Stepping into clinic for a totally different treatment was very exciting! & what a lovely welcome I had, as always, welcomed with a smile. Catlin, as she could very much tell.... I carry the world on my shoulders, but worked those knots out with the most wonderful neck shoulder and back massage. I feel a sense of relief, super relaxed, and 2inces taller. Forever grateful for all of you beautiful souls in clinic, it takes a warm heart, patience & kindness to do what you do, and you never fail! Thanks a million and more! .x. Kerrie .x.

I had another lovely visit to The Highbrow Clinic, always greeted with a lovely warm welcome and whenever I visit it always feels like a treat. I had my nails done with Caitlin and she was fantastic, such an amazing eye for detail, thorough and I walked away with the most perfect nails. She was engaging and chatty and it was such a treat. I've been going to nail bars for a while, but today having had BAIB nails at The Highbrow, I won't be going back to nail bars. The whole experience was just a treat, start to finish and with a great end result. Thanks Highbrow x

Amazing

Fantastic talented and creative hair dressers, Debbie gave me a brilliant cut & colour, would definitely recommend.

Ian cut my hair exactly as I required.

Beautiful hair & charming company
