Wilderness Hair emerged from a journey of self-healing. Our founder and artistic director discovered their path to folk herbalist hairdressing over 20 years ago. In becoming more conscious of how wasteful and toxic the hairdressing industry can be Lou set out to combat the problem whist still delivering an exceptional hair care service. 

From the rise of the curly girl method, Lou has taken her experience with curls and texture to curate the Wilderness Way. Whether you need help embracing your natural hair or you're wanting the modern day shaggy cut , Lou will help you find the style for you.

The  salon is in Kirkby Lonsdale, perfectly placed for the surrounding areas of Lancaster, Leeds, Cumbria and Yorkshire to have their very own curl specialist salon. 

Louise also still works from her former Wilderness Hair Liverpool Salon one day a week which is now a collective space known has ‘Henry Street Collective’ 

Not only is she a colour, cut and style specialist - she provides non-toxic, vegan friendly hair products made on location and runs Herbal Haircare Workshops and events throughout the year. 

 Lou harnesses the power of herbs and botany, she give curls and texture the attention they deserve.
