The craft
Sit down with us first.
Every colour at Acme Salon starts with a conversation and a strand test — then a plan for how it grows out, not just how it photographs on day one.
- Consultation before every colour, no exceptions
- One training programme across all four salons
- Tiered pricing — pay for the experience level you choose
- Pay at the salon: card, cash or gift card

Katie fitted me in on market day for a blow dry — twenty minutes of chat, a week of good hair.
★★★★★ Sally · Acme Salon Altrincham
The Altrincham salon is gorgeous — skylights, calm, and a director cut that survived my own attempts at styling.
★★★★★ Imogen · Acme Salon Altrincham
The Olaplex treatment brought my bleached ends back from the dead. Believer now.
★★★★★ Maddie · Acme Salon Chorlton
Sofia did my wedding hair and half the bridesmaids booked her before the first dance.
★★★★★ Bea · Acme Salon Altrincham
