About Way Ahead London

Way Ahead London combines hairdressing and beauty treatments under one roof on Westow St in SE London, with both hairdressers and beauty therapists on the team, so a cut and a facial can be booked in the same visit. The hair side covers cuts, colouring and blow-dries, along with full restyles, dual-shade colour work and keratin treatments. On the beauty side, manicures and pedicures are done on site, with facials and back massage also available. The team talks through what you want and advises on options before any work starts, which suits anyone weighing up a colour change. The salon runs by appointment and opens daily, making it possible to book hair and beauty services back to back rather than across two places.

    “It's nice to find a little gem of a place in SE London to get your nails done that isn't openly practicing modern slavery(!!) The girl who did my nails, I think Amy, did a really professional job and was lovely to sit and chat to”
  • Kaila Engelsman
    “Always great service - the stylists spend enough time and take lots of care to make sure I have a great experience every time I visit! Very reasonable pricing too. I recommend for cuts, colouring and blow-dries!!”

    “Loved the service, honesty and my hair colour. A bit late post (very sorry I forgot the name of the lady who did my hair colour but I was shocked and happy when she said shall use dual shades; thats what my old hair dressers in England and outside had recommended. Gave me the confidence that I was in right place). Very kind people to offer lunch too. Shall see you soon for next one too xx (my pic might not do justice but it’s the click I got no sooner was out of the salon and truly happy) Update (as google does not allow to add more reviews): I did my Keratin in Dec 2024 and super pleased with it. It didn’t look fake (which I was afraid off post the first wash and assured by the dressers). The treatment defn helped my hair condition and still going good while in March”

Customer Review Summary

Hair work draws the most praise, with clients singling out cuts and colour. One recalls a colourist proposing dual shades, which matched advice she had been given by previous hairdressers and reassured her she was in the right place, while another credits a stylist with cutting and shaping thick, curly Mediterranean hair exactly as wanted, listening and advising rather than assuming. A keratin treatment earns a later follow up note that it did not look fake and left the hair in better condition months on. Close behind, the beauty side recurs: a pedicure on feet left scarred and bruised after an accident, a manicure and back massage described as detailed and friendly, nails called professional, and a facial called gentle and thorough. Several describe the place as a long standing family run business with a warm, welcoming atmosphere and reasonable pricing, and recommend it for cuts, colouring and blow dries. One reviewer whose appointment did not go as expected says a member of staff went out of their way to put it right.
