Took my mum to this salon as she’s been looking for a new place, and I can honestly say we had a wonderful experience from start to finish. Booking the appointment was easy and stress-free, and the entire team made us feel so welcome. A special thank you to Floris – my mum absolutely loved her hair! It’s such a relief to know she’s in good hands moving forward. Friendly, professional, and genuinely caring staff. Highly recommend!

Embracing Your Natural Curls
Proper care is key to maintaining healthy, vibrant natural curls. We use professional products designed exclusively for textured and curly hair to nourish and hydrate your curls without weighing them down. These products help maintain moisture balance, define curl patterns, and reduce frizz.
Our stylists provide personalised hair care routines tailored to your curl type, including advice on gentle cleansing, deep conditioning, and protective styling. We also recommend regular trims to prevent split ends and maintain curl shape. With the right care, your natural afro curls can remain strong, bouncy, and beautifully defined every day.
If you are ready for a new look, we use specialist cutting and styling techniques to enhance your hair’s natural shape and bounce - creating a look that’s both flattering and easy to maintain.
Our salon provides expert advice and customised care plans to help you embrace your curls with confidence and pride.
Understanding Your Curl Type
Knowing your curl type is essential for effective styling and care. Afro and textured hair comes in a wide range of curl patterns, from loose waves to tight coils and kinky curls. Understanding your curl type helps determine the best products, cutting techniques, and styling methods for your hair.
Our afro hair specialists will assess your hair’s natural curl pattern, porosity, and density to create a tailored hair care and styling plan. We educate clients about the unique needs of their curl type, whether it requires more moisture, protein, or specialised cutting methods to avoid shrinkage or frizz.
With the right knowledge and expert care, your curls will look defined, healthy, and full of life.
The Benefits of Keeping it Natural
Choosing to keep your hair natural offers many benefits beyond just style. Natural hair tends to be stronger and less prone to breakage when cared for correctly, as it avoids the harsh chemicals and heat often used in straightening and relaxing processes.
We support natural hair by providing treatments and cuts that encourage healthy growth and reduce damage. Keeping your hair natural allows it to retain moisture better and maintain its natural elasticity, which also contributes to overall hair health.
Let's also not forget that there are many different styling options for natural hair. You can enjoy the freedom of experimenting with different looks - from afros and braids to twist-outs and protective styles - while maintaining the integrity of your hair.
Transitioning To Natural Curls After Relaxers
Transitioning from relaxed to natural hair can be a rewarding process. It often involves managing two different hair textures during regrowth, which can feel difficult to style or maintain.
The stylists at Hiikuss Salon are here to help you through the transitioning process. We will provide specialist advice and services to help you through this transition with minimal damage and maximum confidence.
Our stylists can recommend the best protective styles, trims, and treatments to ease the process and keep your hair healthy. We also educate clients on how to blend the new growth with the relaxed ends and can gradually cut and style your hair to reveal your natural texture.
With patience, care, and expert support, transitioning to your natural curls can become an empowering experience.
