The Salon

Craig Bolam Salon, established 2013, is an award-winning space located at Dene Workshops, Mickley, Northumberland. Known for a more considered approach to hairdressing, the work is quiet, refined, and designed to last beyond the appointment.

We specialise in modern colour and effortless, wearable hair—created through a process that is intentional, informed, and never excessive. Influenced by culture, art, and fashion, but not led by trend, each result is tailored to the individual.

Our goal remains simple: exceptional hair, delivered with precision and care. In partnership with Alfaparf Milano, we combine performance with a more responsible approach to beauty—supporting the long-term condition of the hair as well as the experience itself.
