Why Leigh-on-Sea clients choose Urban Edge

Warm, friendly welcome

The atmosphere is what reviewers mention most often. From the moment you walk in, you're a guest — not a number to be processed.

In-depth consultations

Every appointment starts with a proper conversation about your hair, your lifestyle and what you'd like done. We plan the work before we touch the scissors.

Honest, realistic advice

If something won't suit your hair type or won't last between visits, we'll say so. No empty promises, no upsells — just straightforward guidance.

Transformations welcome

Clients often come to us after disappointing experiences elsewhere. We're known in Leigh for fixing patchy colour, repairing condition and rebuilding confidence.

“Friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable team of people who offer realistic advice. Appointment with Ellie Mae and Steph at Urban Edge and the transformation is amazing. I walked in looking like a scarecrow and walked out loving it with a fab cut, great colour and shiny hair.”

Common questions

Where in Leigh-on-Sea are you based?

We're at 2 Grove End on Rectory Grove, just off Leigh Broadway. A short walk from Leigh-on-Sea station and a few minutes' drive from Westcliff and Chalkwell. There's on-street parking nearby and the Broadway car parks are close.

How do I book a hairdresser in Leigh-on-Sea?

The fastest way is our online booking system, which shows live availability for each stylist. You can also call 01702 480099 during opening hours.

What services do you offer?

Cut and style, full colour, regrowth, highlights, balayage, colour correction, hair extensions (ZEN micro-ring and tape), KeraStraight smoothing treatments and bridal hair. Full details on our services page and price list.

Do I need a skin test before colour?

Yes — new colour clients (and anyone who hasn't had colour with us in the last six months) need a quick skin patch test at least 48 hours before the appointment. We're happy to fit this in around a short consultation if you'd like to come in and chat first.

Can you fix colour from another salon?

Yes — colour correction is one of the things our Leigh-on-Sea team is best known for. Book a consultation (free, no obligation) and we'll talk you through what's realistically possible, how long it'll take, and what it'll cost — before any work begins.

Are you the same business as the Shenfield salon?

Yes — we have a sister salon in Shenfield on Hutton Road. Same family-run business, same standards, same gender-neutral pricing approach. Read more about our Shenfield salon.
