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

First time visiting this salon,definitely will be back, best haircut in a long time, Tash was brilliant explained everything one very happy client

Theresa did my hair on Saturday for a wedding, and I couldn’t have loved it any more! They were so lovely, and totally understood that I didn’t want a super structured look, but something more natural and fun and she completely went beyond anything I had in mind - just amazing talent.

I've been trying to get my hair how I wanted it for a long time haven't been happy, then I went to head to head and Thersea got it perfect, very happy and booked another appointment straight away, lovely friendly hairdressers thankyou 😊

I can't rate this Salon any higher, just amazing! Bethany and Theresa chatted to me with advice first before I booked my appointment. I happened to do a big mistake with a hair colour change and nothing was too much trouble from Bethany with my hair. The end result is outstanding and I'm so very happy after my colour re-correction. Lovely atmosphere and I will now always go back as they all are just brilliant at what they do and so friendly and welcoming. Thank you so much x

Lovely friendly atmosphere. Theresa took care and time with wash, cut and blow dry. Was very pleased with results. Even had a few laughs during visit. Very professional.

Jayda is so lovely and made me feel really comfortable. The atmosphere was super friendly, and my brows have never looked better. They’re full, perfectly shaped, and just what I wanted. Can’t recommend her enough xx

I always receive the best treatment from Jayda and wouldn’t go anywhere else for my eyebrows. Jayda is so talented and skilled, I highly recommend her for your beauty and aesthetics needs!

Jayda is super professional and makes the service I had super comfortable. I was recommended to book with her, and I definitely will recommend Jayda to all my clients as she offers such a wide range of services. Thank you Jayda. I am very happy with your professionalism.

Jayda is an amazing beauty therapist with very good eye for detail! I’ve always been a bit funny with who does my eyebrows but I trust Jayda 100%, she does a beautiful job on them 🤩 She’s the kindest person I’ve ever met and she makes you feel at ease as soon as you walk in the room. I highly recommend!😁

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

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.

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

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* ❤️

Love going to the Highbrow. Beautiful salon with Beautiful ladies to make you glow. Highly recommended especially if you want to spoil yourself. Very professional. Every treatment I have had there has been perfect.

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'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!

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!

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. ❤️

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 recently took my 3 year old daughter here for her first trim of her slow growing curly locks. I also had my 6 year son in tow. It was just before Christmas so the salon was very busy. We arrived just in the nick of time and were made very welcome. Although it was crowded, space was quickly made for us to get seated and Kate was attended to with professionalism and care. My son can be a little energetic at times and did wander down the salon a couple of times to be rapidly called back by me. At no time did I feel that there was any negative feedback from that by the staff. In fact the children were offered a sweet as a treat and the staff enaged with them when they could particularly Natalie the owner. Kate left feeling very happy. While I was sat there, I was able to observe the quality of the work that the team were creating for the clients of all ages. I would highly recommend and look forward to taking Kate along in future.

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♥️

Great stylists, all very welcoming & attentive! The management & staff really go that extra mile to keep their clients & themselves safe in these trying times, which is very comforting. Would happily recommend!

Had my hair done on Saturday by the lovely Jodie, as always they were so friendly. Felt fabulous as I left following my much needed cut and colour. So glad to see the team back again

Jodie was amazing great haircut so happy, really took the time to listen to what I wanted & executed it perfectly, lots of professional hair advice, great chat & lovely friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend & will definitely be booking again.

Popped in for the first time last week. I don’t live in the area but Stevie did a fab job of a restyle cut on my rather difficult curly hair. I will definitely go in again I love my hair now!

Kayleigh is an amazing hair stylist. I love going to her and each time her work is absolutely amazing. Would definitely highly recommend

Kayleigh is an amazing hair stylist and professional. As a women with very curly hair I always struggled to trust anyone to cut it the correct way. Not only that she helped me when my hair was a horrid colour and took it back to the way it was before when other hairdressers would turn me down and say it wasn't yet possible. One hundred out of ten would recommend

Kayleigh is absolutely incredible at what she does! I love my hair every single time and would rather wait to see her than go anywhere else. Amazing service, amazing atmosphere and absolutely unreal hair ⭐️

Cannot reccomend Kayleigh enough! Before my appointment I had severe anxiety of going to hairdressers (after a really bad cut and dye 4 years ago). She called me up prior to my appointment put me at ease within minutes of being on the call. When entering the studio she supplied me with a a fantastic cup of coffee and assured me that she could bring my hair back to life. Kayleigh is just so lovely and accommodating, she really listens to what you want and has amazing professional knowledge on what will suit you best! She is absolute magic! It has been a long time since I've felt this confident and good about myself! Again kayleigh you are amazing! I cannot wait to book back in! Thankyou so much!

Everything happens for a reason and in my case this couldn’t be more true. After a previous booking with another hair and makeup artist got cancelled, I contacted Bex in a panic to see if she had any availability for me. Bex was so helpful and accommodating and when I went for my hair and makeup trial, I couldn’t have wished for anything better. Bex has such a calming presence about her and this was definitely something I needed on the morning of my wedding day. How my hair and makeup looked was so much more than I could have dreamed off and she made me and my bridal party feel so beautiful. Shout out to any future brides, book Bex, you won’t be disappointed.

Bex is amazing at what she does! Hair, make up and even helping out with other little details. I loved my hair and make up in my trial but loved it even more on the day. I cried when she showed me my hair because it was just so beautiful! Bex helped the morning run smoothly and stayed right to the very end to do finishing touches. I cannot thank her enough for getting myself and my bridal party ready x

I couldn't recommend Bex enough! We booked Bex in August for myself (bride) and bridesmaid, mother, and mother-in-law. We all loved our hair and make-up on the day, she is truly talented at what she does and made us all feel so beautiful! My bridal party looked stunning! Bex fit in so effortlessly the morning of our wedding and made us feel so excited, she has been so friendly and professional from start to finish. From the trial, Bex instantly brought my vision of my bridal style to life and was everything I expected, I would recommend to anyone. Thank you Bex!

It was an absolute pleasure having Bex do mine and my bridesmaids hair and makeup for my wedding. She is a true professional! so friendly and efficient but also incredibly talented. She easily adapted to each of our chosen hairstyles and makeup looks and executed them all beautifully. We were all delighted with the end results and better yet!... they lasted all day/night. The makeup was so tasteful and classic and it stayed in place all day and didn't crack or crease. I opted for a half up, half down hairstyle with a Hollywood wave, which for someone with very heavy and thick hair, I was nervous about but it honestly was perfect and stayed in place so well all day. I couldn't recommend Bex enough! she's just FAB!!! xoxox
