Professional Matted Hair Detangling Service in London

I detangle matted, tangled, and knotted hair without cutting it. One client at a time, however long it takes. Over 1,000 heads restored across London with a 97% save rate, including mats other salons turned away.

What a Detangling Session Involves

Every booking starts with a free 15-minute consultation, in person or over WhatsApp. I look at the hair, tell you honestly whether it can be saved without cutting, and give you a realistic time estimate before you commit to anything. No session goes ahead until you know what to expect.

Free Consultation

A 15-minute assessment of the matting, the cause, and the hair type. You get an honest answer on whether cutting can be avoided and a clear time estimate.

The Detangling

Worked through by hand and with the right tools, section by section. No rushing, no shortcuts, and no scissors unless there is genuinely no other option.

Aftercare Advice

Before you leave, you get a simple routine to keep the hair from matting again, matched to your hair type and daily life. No products pushed on you.

Simple, Hourly, No Surprises

The rate is £100 per hour. Matted hair is unpredictable, so I price by time rather than a flat fee, and the consultation gives you a realistic range before we start. Most cases fall into one of three bands.

2–3 hrs

Surface tangling or a few weeks of buildup. £200–£300.

4–6 hrs

Dense matting through part of the head. £400–£600.

7–10 hrs

A single solid mat or months of neglect. £700–£1,000.

Severe cases can run across two sessions if needed, so you are not sitting for ten hours straight. Home visits are available anywhere in London for a flat £200 on top of the hourly rate.

Cases Most Salons Won't Take

A lot of the people I see have already been turned away somewhere else, or told the only answer is to shave it off. That is almost never true. In six years I have worked on matting caused by depression, hospital stays, chemotherapy, surgery recovery, postpartum exhaustion, autism, chronic illness, and elderly care.

Every hair type, from 1A straight through to 4C coils. Tangling that built up over two weeks, and tangling left for over two years. The hair almost always comes back. The British Journal of Dermatology found fewer than 5% of severe cases genuinely need cutting when a trained specialist handles them, and my own save rate sits at 97%.

There is no judgement here. How the hair got this way does not matter to me. Getting it back does.

Studio Visits and Home Visits Across London

The studio is in London and most clients come to me. If travelling is hard, whether because of mobility, illness, anxiety, or caring for someone who cannot leave the house, I also do home visits anywhere in London for a flat £200 on top of the hourly rate.

People travel in from across the city and well beyond it for this, because there are very few places that do only this and nothing else. If you are not sure whether it is worth the trip, send a photo over WhatsApp first and I will tell you honestly.
