Welcome to Barberette London

Established by Klara Vanova (2012), co-founder of the first gender neutral salon in the UK, we are a self financed, fully accessible hub, offering affordable, gender neutral haircuts to all in a LGBTQIA+ safe space.

We don't believe in paying extra for your gender, so our pricing is gender-neutral: we charge on the basis of the work we do for you, not on your gender identity. We cater for all hair types and textures, though as the name suggests, we love shorter styles. Our goal is that every one of our clients walks away feeling 100% themselves. Regardless of your gender expression or sexuality, we want you to leave our hub with the hairstyle you want.

To keep overheads and service costs down, we don’t have a receptionist, so all bookings must be made online via the BOOKSY app. Please make sure to read our Terms & Conditions and Cancellation Policy before making an appointment with us.

If you have requirements that would make your visit easier - e.g. a quieter environment or to face away from the mirror, please leave a client note in the app when you book and we will do our best to accommodate your needs.

As a safe space and hub for the LGBTQIA+ community and allies, we regularly work with charities, artists and organisations that help promote the work and well-being of members of our community. We are constantly looking for meaningful ways to give back, beyond the services we offer.

We are very happy to say that our London salon is 100% vegan, meaning all the products we use are vegan and cruelty free. We also endeavour to work as sustainably as possible.
