Hair & skin on Alder Street, Bellhaven

Good haircuts, lived-in colour and an hour to yourself.

We’re a small independent salon of five. We take time to listen, cut for the way you actually wear your hair, and never rush you out of the chair.

Open Wednesday to Sunday · (555) 010-0142

It starts with a proper conversation.

I opened Luma in 2016, in what used to be Alder Street Florist. After eleven years in a busy downtown salon I wanted somewhere slower, where nobody is double-booked and everyone gets a real consultation before the scissors come out.

We still work that way. Five of us, seven chairs, a wash room full of plants and a very good espresso machine.

Our team

Nobody here works on commission, so nobody is going to talk you into a treatment you don’t need. Most of us have been here for years.

What clients say

4.9 average from 212 Google reviews

“Maya is the first person who has cut my hair so it actually dries the way it looked in the salon. I’ve moved across town and I still come back.”
Priya S. · Google review, August 2026
“Claire talked me out of going platinum in one sitting and she was completely right. Three appointments later it’s exactly what I wanted and my hair still feels like hair.”
Harper L. · Google review, June 2026
“Calm, friendly, no upselling. Nadia’s facial was the best hour of my month.”

The small print

Not many rules, but these help us keep appointments running on time for everyone.

Cancelling or moving
Please give us 24 hours’ notice. Late cancellations and no-shows are charged 50% of the booked service, because someone else could have had that time.
Running late
We can usually absorb ten minutes. Any later and we may need to shorten your service or move you to another day.
Deposits
Colour appointments over $150 need a $50 deposit when you book. It comes off your bill on the day.
New colour clients
We need a quick patch test at least 48 hours before your first colour. Pop in any time we’re open, it takes five minutes.
Kids
Cuts for under-12s are $35 with any stylist. Weekend mornings are quietest.
Not quite right?
Tell us within seven days and we’ll put it right free of charge. We would much rather hear from you than have you live with it.
