Review

"Sophie is amazing! I travel from another town to see her after she fixed my hair after a disastrous hair cut somewhere else. She got it back into shape and it made such a difference to how I felt. Thank you Sophie"

CO-OWNER

Nicky always had a passion for hair and beauty, despite studying Psychology at Sussex University. So after leaving she followed her passion and became a make up artist alongside working on reception in a hair salon. She always dreamt of opening a salon with her sister so focused on learning everything there was to running a successful business.

In 2006 they took over Langtons in the heart of Lewes and grew it from a tiny salon at the top of the High St to its current, beautiful, spacious salon on Fisher Street. Always looking for ways to improve the service at Langtons, she launched a luxury beauty service and brought Aveda to Lewes in recent years.

Nicky spends some of the time on reception and working behind the scenes, alongside bringing up her two daughters.

CURRENTLY ON MATERNITY LEAVE

Louise has been in the hair industry since 2016 and made a decision early on to specialise in colour as it was her passion. She loves all aspects of colour and seeing the difference it can make to people's confidence when you do a great colour, but her speciality is in blonding and balayage. She also loves blowdrying and is your girl for those beachy waves.

Review

"Louise was amazing, I had grey roots and dark ends with a mix of auburn in between and she balanced the colour of my hair perfectly. I have previously had my hair cut and highlighted at well known salons in London and have come out feeling deflated, but I can honestly say this was not the case today. Thank you for not only making me feel welcome but also making me feel like me again" NW
