Does a rustic style in a hair salon necessarily mean a raw, unrefined look? Kaia in Edinburgh proves otherwise, combining raw, natural materials with a thoughtful, tranquil interior layout. A key element here is the \u201enew rustic\u201d style, inspired by the warmth of Marrakesh, Bali and Mediterranean minimalism, alongside salon furnishings tailored to a business model based on longer, one-to-one appointments. For the salon owner, this translates into a tangible business benefit: an interior designed for premium services with higher profit margins, rather than for fast, multi-station customer service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How did the rustic Kaia hair salon come about?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Kaia in Edinburgh offers a fresh take on \u201erustic hairdressing salon design\u201d: modern, serene and thoughtfully designed. Inspired by the warmth of Marrakesh and Bali, and Mediterranean minimalism, the salon\u2019s interior combines organic textures, soft, curved lines, raw, warm wood and natural materials to create a well-established, elevated environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taneth, the owner and colour specialist, has designed the space around a slower pace of customer service. \u201eThe main aim in opening Kaia was to offer personalised, one-to-one colour services,\u201d she says. \u201eWe\u2019ve moved away from the typical system of serving multiple clients at once to create something more personal. The space has been designed to support this, whilst also allowing us to organise events, create content and welcome guest artists.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the warm, neutral tones to the fluid flow of the interior layout, every element seems to have been carefully thought out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hairdressing furniture and fittings that define the character of the interior<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The centrepiece of the lounge is a bespoke, oversized wooden table by Trae Joinery. Built at desk height, it is designed to help customers take their eyes off the mirror and feel more at ease during quiet moments, whether they are reading, working or simply relaxing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This approach to hairdressing salon design has a tangible impact on the business: with lengthy, bespoke colouring treatments, customers spend more time in the salon than they would for a standard haircut, and having a place to work or relax at a table \u2013 rather than just a chair by the mirror \u2013 enhances the comfort of these longer visits and reduces the risk of customers becoming impatient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soft, curved lines recur throughout the interior, from the joinery to the arched mirrors and styling stations. The colour palette emphasises natural light, textured finishes and a distinctly \u201eneo-rustic\u201d aesthetic \u2013 raw yet refined. The Chloe hairdressing chairs in the Sand shade were chosen to complement the colour palette, whilst introducing a sculptural softness to the interior. In the washing area, the Club hairdressing wash unit in Sand anchors this part of the salon in comfort and simplicity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201eThe armchairs and washbasin fit in perfectly here,\u201d says Taneth. \u201eComfortel were incredibly helpful with every query I had. The delivery went smoothly, and they even offered excellent after-sales support following installation.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
