More Than Just a Hair Salon

A place where beautiful hair, genuine conversations and lasting relationships come together. At Split Ends Hair Design, we're passionate about creating a warm, welcoming space where every client feels comfortable, cared for and confident. Whether you're visiting us for the first time or you've been part of our salon family for years, we're here to help you look and feel your very best.

Welcome to
Split Ends Hair Design

For over 40 years, Split Ends Hair Design has proudly been part of the Strathmore community, helping generations of locals look and feel their best.

Twelve years ago, owner Jessica took over the salon with a simple vision—to create a welcoming space where people could enjoy beautiful hair, honest advice and exceptional service without feeling intimidated or having to spend a fortune.

Today, that vision continues every day. Whether you're visiting for your regular colour appointment, a fresh haircut or a complete transformation, our goal is to make every client feel comfortable, valued and confident from the moment they walk through our doors.

A Salon That Feels Like Home

We know choosing a new hairdresser can feel overwhelming, which is why we've created an environment where everyone is welcome.

From your first visit, you'll be greeted with a friendly smile, genuine conversation and a team who truly listens to what you're hoping to achieve.

We're proud to be a family-friendly salon where clients of all ages feel comfortable, whether you're popping in for a quick trim or settling in for a few hours of colour.

Many of our clients have been visiting us for years—and we believe that's because we genuinely care about the people who walk through our doors, not just the hair they leave with.
