Best Women's Haircuts near me in Starbeck, Harrogate

I've been coming to “The French Reception” for years now, and for me personally Laurent is the best hairdresser in Harrogate. His skill, attention to detail, and ability to understand exactly what I want never fail to impress me. Whether it’s a simple trim or a complete restyle, Laurent always delivers perfection! The salon itself is a welcoming and stylish space, making every visit a pleasure.

Fantastic experience. I wish I could remember the name of the lady who did my blow dry but she was warm and friendly. She gave me an amazing head massage while washing my hair and I was treated to a cold beer while in the chair. I was I love with my bouncy blow dry ready for my brothers wedding. I don't live in Harrogate but if I did I would certainly become a regular.

Beautiful boutique salon hidden away in stunning Harrogate. Talented team, friendly and always an inviting environment. Huge fan of Kevin Murphy products as well so extra comfort with the best colour and hair care products.

French reception is by far the best salon I have found since moving to Harrogate 9 years ago! Laurent is a top stylist and colourist and I love the atmosphere of the salon.

The best cutter in Harrogate, in my opinion. It's 6 months since my last cut , due to lockdown, and my hair was still in shape. I think that says it all.

Joseph has done my hair for years and, today, I visited his new salon in Harrogate. Wow!!!! What an excellent experience it was. I had a lovely cup of coffee (x2) and Joseph lived up to expectaions, and more. He is certainly setting a high standard. I'm definitely going to go back again. The only worry I have is that he's going to get booked up a very long time in advance.

As always great service and hair cut by Fidan

A really good experience

Fidan was super kind and patient with my very quiet teen. She did a great job finding out exactly what my daughter wanted for her hair. Her hair cutting skills are really great too. Overall very happy indeed. We will definitely be using Fidan again.

Amazing as always xxxx

Fantastic as always thanks Fi x

First class.

Thanks Fidan for taking such care with my difficult hair! Best hair styling in years!

I highly recommend Fidan. She makes you feel at ease straight away. She explains everything she’s doing. Her knowledge is excellent and she truly prioritises hair health. My hair was damaged (not by Fidan), and she created a clear plan to restore it. I’ll only go to Fidan now because I feel comfortable, she does a great job, and she genuinely cares about the condition of your hair

Professional service and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend.

My first visit to the salon was a great experience from start to finish. The space itself is lovely, and I was given such a warm welcome as soon as I arrived, which immediately put me at ease. Fidan was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to give me helpful advice about my hair, really listening to what I wanted while also offering professional insight. I’m so happy with my cut. I’ll definitely be returning and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a friendly, skilled, and professional experience.

Brilliant as usual- love my colours.
