We guarantee to give you the time you need, so you never feel rushed or taken for granted. We guarantee to give you the advice you need, so you can be confident in the choices you make. We guarantee when you leave the salon, you'll know how to look after your hair until we see you again. When you understand that in 1996 Steve opened our Luton salon because he felt something was missing from the typical experience salons offered their clients.
When you understand that all those years ago he made a promise, which he's kept ever since, that his salons would always give you more. It's also why we give you longer appointments. This means if you haven't experienced 'The Steve Hilliard Difference' yet we'd love you to come in and see us for a free consultation.

You'll also know it's the foundation of 'The Steve Hilliard Difference' which is based on longer appointments and a 'truly in depth' consultation, to make sure you get what you want. So what else can we tell you 'About Us' that will help you to understand you can relax and trust us to look after you in a way you've probably never experienced before.
You'll also remember the rigorous training program they all go through to make sure they are able and willing to do everything in their power to help you look good and feel fantastic when you leave the salon. Team members who go through our program earn prestigious qualifications and awards on the way and we have 'Colour Masters', 'Colour Experts' and even 'KMS Ambassadors' who are all just itching for the chance to look after you.
We have two salons for you to enjoy, one in Luton and the other in Ampthill and which ever one you choose, you'll notice something special. Our customers are constantly telling us that they love the atmosphere because its so relaxed. This is partly because of the carefully chosen, neutral calming dcor, but the main reason is the light hearted interaction that takes place between customers and team members.
When you take into account the extra 15 minutes we include for FREE with our design critical appointments and the level of training and care that goes into creating the really special experience we call 'The Steve Hilliard Difference', we think you'll be pleasantly surprised at the value you can enjoy in our salons in both Luton and Ampthill.
There are days when you wake up and just want to be pampered, so we've created our 'Walk In' Blow Dry Bar at both of our salons in Luton and Ampthill just for you. Simply walk in (or ring and book on the day) browse the menu, choose your favourite style and we will recreate the look for you in just 30 minutes!

For years I had been going to a different hairstylist. For the first time I tried Steve Hillaird.
Grace was fantastic in listening what I wanted, and although the first time I wasn’t satisfied with the outcome, they were very professional about it and asked me to return the next day and fixed it the way I wanted. Amazing service , wonderful management and one of a kind team.
Would highly recommend them and would never go anywhere else .
Always welcomed with large smiles . Thank you to everyone in Luton branch who have been so lovely, but most of all huge thanks to Grace for changing my look

Thank you Grace.
I walked in the door of Steve Hilliard's Luton salon fully prepared to have to cut short, my out of condition, chlorine frizzed, recently grown hair. Grace worked her magic, made me feel human again and gave me a tutorial on how to manage and style my newly revived locks at home. I left with products that accommodate my allergies to sulphates and that tame my curly locks, all whilst being good humoured and patient! Would highly recommend.

Fell upon Steve Hilliard by accident a couple of years ago as I needed somewhere local for a last minute blow dry. I was booked in with Grace and now wouldn't want anyone else doing my hair. I'm a regular visitor, at least a couple of times per month. Grace knows exactly what I want, she is professional and friendly and I always leave happy. The whole team are friendly creating a nice, relaxing environment. Highly recommend.

I had a cut and style by Grace as I normally do. As always, the service was professional and clients are really treated well. Its the little touches that makes the difference - like the relaxing head massage during the wash and the warm cuppa when you arrive, the treatment for whatever problem your hair is posing on the day. However, the proof is in the pudding and I walked out with a lovely cut, happy as always.

I recently visited this luton hair salon with my 4 year old daughter. My experiance from booking to going has been exceptional.
My daughter is visually impaired and gets afraid and anxious visiting new places due to noise, i explained this on the phone before visiting and the lady who i spoke to was great she really listened to what i needed and suggested a suitable time to come in when it would be a bit quieter they even said we could go into another room if it was to much for her it was so nice to have someone really try and accommodate isabelle instead of just not careing and booking an appointment

I've been going here since it opened - my hair appears simple to do but it's not! Once I had to go elsewhere as SH was full and I was going away and the other salon made a total mess of it! Always a top quality, professional and individual approach taken by all staff. Stylish salons and a convenient booking service. No hesitation in recommending Steve Hilliard's salons.
