Stunning transformation for our lovely client Ann!

This was her first time in a long time getting her hair coloured & the results are incredible! 😍

The warm tones look absolutely beautiful against her skin. Heather did a fantastic job on this transformation👏

How often should I get my hair done? This is a question we're asked A LOT & the answer really depends on you, your hair & the treatments you get.

We know you might not be able to get into the salon as regularly as you'd like but as a very rough guide, we recommend:
✅8 - 6 weeks for a haircut
✅8 - 12 weeks for a balayage
✅4 - 6 weeks for a root touch up
✅3 - 6 weeks for toner
✅4 - 6 weeks for highlights

Our Story.

Sobo is a boutique luxury hair salon based in Edinburgh. Launched by Claire Anderson in May 2014, Sobo has already attracted a loyal client base. The word Sobo is Japanese for ‘Grandmother’ – a cherished, respected and valuable family member with superior knowledge and experience. Claire’s own grandmother was the inspiration behind launching Sobo.

Our Philosophy.

With over 10 years’ experience in providing wellbeing and beauty treatments, Claire is the co-owner of award-winning beauty salons Yuu Beauty Edinburgh and Yuu Beauty Glasgow. When a growing number of clients began requesting hair services, Claire realised there was a need to provide superior hair care alongside complementary treatments for body, mind and soul.

Driven by the desire to provide world-leading treatments that provide outstanding results, Claire meticulously selected a team of experienced hair stylists. And thus Sobo was born.
