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

Had a lovely hair cut today with Nadine. I didn't know what to do with my hair, but thanks to Nadine's knowledge I walked out with my hair looking much more healthy and with more volume! I also had a lovely head, neck and shoulder massage which was a really nice touch. Already booked back in for January! Thanks Nadine & the rest of the Beautifully Gorgeous team for being so warm and welcoming!

Thank you so so much to Amelia for turning my hair from dull to luxurious 😍 i am incredibly pleased to say I am finally happy with how my hair has turned out today. I will 1000% be going back to this salon, very clean and tidy with lovely staff. The salon is beautiful in its self and again thank you so much Amelia for everything today, you have made my week complete ☺️ I would also like to thank Freya for my lovely cut, blow dry and curls makes the look come together🥰 I am sure to be recommending you to anyone that asks for a great salon☺️ Thank you Beautifully Gorgeous♥️

After many years of Natalie colouring and covering my natural highlights I have decided to embrace them. Natalie made a plan and set it in motion, explaining everything and the road that lay ahead. I have trusted her for many years with my hair and she always does a fabulous job. I have had lots of compliments on my hair since my appointment and the scary journey is becoming not so scary. Thank you.

Today was my first visit to Beautifully Gorgeous and it certainly won’t be my last. Claire was so lovely and welcoming and did an absolutely cracking job on my nails. Since my usual salon closed down I’ve had a couple of poor experiences and feel so happy to have found this salon and such a lovely beauty therapist in Claire. Can’t wait to go back!

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.

Friendly staff, always a nice welcome. Highly recommend

Very friendly staff. Really refreshing to have a haircut that is at least as good as more pricey places I've been to, and take literally less than half of the time. They're not messing about!

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

Absolutely fantastic experience. I get my hair done by Michelle. She is a incredible hair dresser and lovely girl. Can tell she really takes her time and make sure I get exactly what I want. Would highly recommend.

Lovely, welcoming salon. Michelle took time to chat with me about what I wanted and thoroughly explained the maintenance required. Couldn't be happier with the outcome. Will definitely be back, thanks Michelle!

I've been going to this salon for 6 years. Excellent service and always happy with my hairstyle.

I live going to Heather Hair Salon in Dorchester. After a several very bad experiences at other hair salons I have found that Heather and her team are caring, friendly and supportive. They have restored my faith in hairdressers and I now look forward to having my hair done. I can't recommend them enough. So glad I found a hairdresser I can trust.

I've been going to Heather's for over 40 years and I can't praise her enough. With difficult hair her advice and knowledge has always left me looking and feeling great.

Lovely salon, super friendly staff and the best haircut ever. Wouldn't go anywhere else. Without a doubt the best salon in Dorchester.

I've been going to Katie Burrows-Kerr for years now and she always does an amazing job. I love the way I feel when I leave the salon, even if it's just from a simple trim. I had my first salon colour last time (previously always home dyed) and I was so happy with the end result, my hair was so vibrant and shiny as well as being super soft! The atmosphere in the salon is always really friendly. I find going into some salons quite intimidating but everyone at MeraKi is so welcoming.

Can't recommend this place enough. I recently got married and was lucky enough to have Jana do my hair on the morning of the wedding. Her skill is incredible and she created exactly what i'd pictured in my head. She's so friendly and did an incredible job on my maid of honours hair as well! 100% would recommend!!

I’ve been going to Meraki for the past couple of years and have always left with dream hair, confidence and a spring in my step. I’ve had styles by Lily, Daisy and Emma and have always been super happy with my hair. I work away but drove 5 hours because I rate this salon this much. Everyone works so hard, even the apprentices and I cannot recommend Meraki enough. Super knowledgeable, full of useful advice on hair care and expert stylists. Thank you for making me feel like a princess with great hair!

I just wanted to thank Daisy for the fabulous hair cut. As a curly haired woman, it’s been a constant struggle to find someone who understands curly hair. Daisy was very engaging and knowledgable, and passed on lots of tips and suggestions. I’m delighted with the results, which is a pretty unique experience for me! Thank you!

Very good. No complaints. Ruth did a good job of cutting my hair as well. Will recommend.

Excellent, felt very safe, I was the only customer at the time and we were well protected re covid.

Lovely hairdressers based in Piddlehentride. All staff are friendly, welcoming and highly skilled.

Lovely ladies, great atmosphere

Lovely staff, all friendly. And do a fantastic job. Wouldn't go anywhere else.

My friend and I had our first intimate wax done here by Shannon, she was so friendly and put us both at ease and made the whole process very relaxed and professional. Would definitely recommend and we will be back :)

I was so impressed with the salon; such a warm and friendly atmosphere and lovely ladies looking after everybody. Overall great quality, professionalism and staff...I will be returning for more treatments soon!

I have been a client at Pure Poundbury for many years and have got to know the team very well. I receive a range of treatments and always come away feeling happy and nurtured. Yesterday was an update for my nails. Brittany is just the right shade of Pink to uplift my spirits. Thank you Steph I always enjoy a catch up while you work on my nails. When I visited this site I was saddened and somewhat appalled to see a negative message. I don't think this is the vehicle to write such messages. It came across as vindictive and I would question if it was initiated by a young girl. A review needs to be honest but a rant is a very different matter. All I wanted to do when I decided to post a review was comment about my Nail treatment at Pure and the professional standard of the Staff. The staff are always very friendly and immediately offer you a drink on arrival. It is an oasis of calm for the stressed! The rooms are well maintained and there are some excellent treatments. I especially like the the Anti-aging Caci which I receive once a month with Kate and Chrissie.There are also excellent monthly offers and this month I have taken advantage of a 10% discount on a block of Caci treatments. Which is a good saving. Over the years I have seen many apprentices start their career in this salon. It's a challenging time at 16 joining the workforce. Expectations may differ but I would have said from observation and Dorect knowledge as an ex Secondary School teacher that it a very supportive team at Pure and a young trainee can learn a lot from all the combined experience. Thank you Pure you have always provided an excellent service and I can thoroughly recommend you to new clients.

Emilee is the best hairdresser ever, she's the only one I like to cut my hair, and always cuts it how I want it, just had my hair cut and highlighted and I'm so pleased with it. Thank you so much.

Afina Hair and Beauty is a lovely salon - it's stylish, friendly and welcoming. It has a bright and airy atmosphere. Eleanor is a great stylist - very happy with my haircut and highlights. Amy did a fantastic job with my manicure and pedicure. Highly recommend

Emilee is the best hairdresser I have ever been to. Used to have a lot of anxiety after a bad experience at a different hairdressers, but since going to Emilee for the past two years - i have never felt more confident in myself or my hair. Couldn’t recommend her more, followed her from different salons and now she’s bossing her own!! Incredible hairdresser and the pics speak for themselves💜

Having visited Alfina for the first time yesterday, I cannot recommend it enough. I booked in to get colour, a cut and a blow dry with Emilee and she absolutely perfected the look I was going for. I arrived with hair that had been left for over a year and a half, that really needed some attention and I left feeling so happy with my new style. Thank-you Emilee! The salon itself is such a wonderful, calm and inviting space. There’s lots of complimentary drinks to choose from and if you’re caught off guard - they even have tampons, deodorant and other toiletries in the bathroom - such a nice touch! If you’re looking to find a hairdresser that makes you feel super comfortable and listened to, I cannot recommend Emilee at Alfina more. I will definitely be back!

Such a confident and positive experience from the minute I walked in. Lucie is so kind and supportive on a hair change( with a dash of Tiggys help!) I left feeling so confident and happy with my new hair! Thanks Luce! Xx

Had such an amazing time today in Thomas J Williams. Couldn’t recommend Georgie enough. He was so lovely, patient and funny. 10/10 service and experience.

I’ve been going to Kira for a few years now and wouldn’t go anywhere else. She’s so professional and friendly, let alone an incredible hair dresser. She always listens to my needs and is so accommodating, my hair has never been in better condition thanks to her. I would recommend Kira & TJW salon to anyone!

Incredible experience for both my daughter and I. My daughter had a balayage colour with a cut and blow dry, I had a cut and blow dry. Made to feel welcome from entering to leaving. We'll definitely be back!
