Medusa Teviot Place Hair Salon Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh

6/7 Teviot Place, Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh, EH1 2QZ

About us

Medusa like to do things differently - we're an award-winning Edinburgh hairdressing salon consistently creating new styles at the vanguard of fashion, but all the while exuding a genuine warmth and welcome. And that's because we obsess about hair, and equally, about how to make every minute of your time with us memorable (for all the right reasons). Sit back, have a cappuccino, have a wine, or have a funky organic tea if you fancy. From the second you step in the door, we want to make you feel at home, and get to know you, your hair and how you want to feel in your new hairstyle.

No rush, no fuss, no problem.

Let us make your hair rock.

Everyone is very friendly and Kylie, who has been styling my hair for quite some time now, understands exactly what I want and how to handle my thick hair. First time in years that I have a stylist and I don't intend to change. Friends of mine who have had a haircut with Kylie after my suggestion are also VERY happy with the results.

Zara did an incredible job cutting my long hair into a stylish pixie cut. When I was told she was qualified not long ago, I couldn't believe it. She did a fantastic job, my new haircut makes me feel confident and fresh. Thank you!!

Found Medusa online whilst in Edinburgh for a few days and in need of a makeover. Zara has taken a lot of my hair away -and about 10 years with it. Brilliant service. I’ll be back next time I’m in town.

I asked for it to be cut just above the shoulder and she cut it much much shorter then charged me £36 for it. I have been coming to the teviot and Stockbridge Medussa for the past 3 years now and never been so upset and disappointed after a hair cut. It has always cost me £29 but for some reason this time it was £36 without any explanation? I also asked for a cappuccino which I didn't get and usually get asked if I want a head massage which I also didn't get. So if I ever come back to medusa I will definitely ask not to get seen by that stylist again

My experience was great, Poppy really listened to me and didn’t cut any more than I asked, which tends to be the case usually. The whole experience exceeded my expectations. The only downside was the washing part - my hair was washed by someone else and the girl was really quite harsh, didn’t ask me if the water temperature was alright, wasn’t gentle with my hair at all, nothing..

My daughter has curly hair and has had some terrible haircuts over the years so she used to dread going to a hairdresser. However, since finding Kylie her hair is always beautifully cut and Kylie is very friendly and welcoming too.

This was my third time at the Medusa (Teviot). Kate is an amazing hairstylist and on top of that, a lovely person!! She helped me to pick a beautiful colour and refreshed my look! She's also suggested to me a new (vegan-friendly) shampoo and conditioner, and I absolutely love them! The staff is super friendly too, I really recommend this place!
