Situated in the heart of shopping heaven, we believe that our Lakeside hair salon in Essex is every bit the destination that Lakeside itself is. We know you might be there to shop your hearts out, but we think you deserve a little pampering too!

Manager Christine passionately believes that your time with your hairdresser should be cherished, almost ritualistic and as personal to you as your hair. Leave the hustle and bustle of the world outside as you unwind with an indulgent head massage in our peaceful spa, then zone out with your favourite magazine and a coffee, while your hair stylist dedicates their time to ensuring that your experience is everything you dreamed it would be. And having been crowned Customer Service Salon of the Year at the Rush awards in January, they should know.

But there’s more to it than that. We know how much it means to have a great hair day, every day, and for us the key to your hair happiness is in the bond formed between your hair stylist and you, it’s about trust. So your hairdresser will really take the time to get to know you, your lifestyle and to understand what you love about your hair. You can be sure that we’ll create a hairstyle so special and so you, that you glow with an inner confidence only truly beautiful hair can bestow. It’s YOU, by Rush.

It doesn’t stop there… the condition of your hair is really important too. If your hair is in need of a little tender, loving, care, your stylist will mix a made-to-measure concoction to get your hair looking healthy and happy in no time, be it to nourish, strengthen, replenish or add volume.

Our hairdressers are also fully trained in more specialist services, such as the Brazilian Blow Dry and Hair Extensions, so if you fancy something a little different then pop in for a chat with your stylist and we’ll see what we can do.

If you’re visiting Lakeside for one reason and one reason only (to shop, of course) then you’re in luck! We stock every professional styling product you could dream of. Be it Kérastase, L’Oréal Professional, Redken, TIGI or Nanokeratin. What’s more, we use the products in the salon and on our own hair because we believe that they are the best out there, just ask one of our team, and we’ll show you how to use the products to get the style you want.

Rush Lakeside’s 50% Off Colour Day is Tuesday.
