Headcases Hair Studio - Penicuik

8 John St, Penicuik, Midlothian, EH26 8AD

About us

Headcases first opened its doors in Penicuik at the end of August 1998. Since the door opened back in 1998 the salon has gone from strength to strength attracting a huge loyal customer following resulting in a second salon opening within Peebles Hydro Hotel in 2007. Headcases now have a busy team of dedicated employees and realise that education and customer satisfaction is the key in allowing this incredibly successful venture to grow even further. The driving force behind this new venture was Danny and Marie Archibald both local stylists and Danny’s partner Pauline who had extensive experience of working in a customer care focused environment.

The hairdresser was professional and dealt with my 6 year old in a friendly yet grown up fashion that she enjoyed the experience.

I have been going to Headcases for roughly 10 years. Elaine has cut my hair for all this time and every time she has cut/coloured my hair I have been extremely satisfied with the result and will be going for years to come.

First of all, I don't like going to the hairdresser's, it makes me anxious. However, from the very first visit Pauline has made me feel very welcome. Emma has been doing my hair ever since and I've never loved my hair more. Today when I came in Emma was off ill and I agreed on letting someone else do my hair. Michael has done an amazing job with it today and I love it just as much.
Highly recommended, especially when you're anxious about hairdresses as they're just lovely at Headcases.
