The Design Edit | KB The Hair Studio

December 09, 2025

Surrounded by countryside, Kerry-Ann Buckell’s KB The Hair Studio is a calming retreat…

How would you describe the design of your salon?

I wanted the salon to feel modern and luxurious, but also really private. Somewhere people can escape and just relax. Each studio is designed for 1:1 appointments, so clients have the space entirely to themselves. With stone floors, white walls, warm golden lighting and views of the Surrey Hills, it has this really calm, retreat-like feel where you can switch off and be pampered.

How have you embraced sustainability within your design?

Sustainability has been carefully considered in every aspect of KB The Hair Studio’s design and daily  running. The studios are filled with natural light, reducing the need for artificial lighting throughout the day. We use biodegradable towels and recycle here on the farm itself. The goal was to create a space that feels luxurious yet consciously connected to the beautiful countryside that surrounds it.

Do you have a dress code for your team?

We don’t have a strict dress code at KB The Hair Studio. I believe it’s important for each stylist to feel like themselves. That said, professionalism is key, so everyone maintains a clean, polished look that reflects the salon’s standards. Traditionally, hairdressers are known for wearing black (and I do still stick to that myself! ) but I want the team to express their own style within that professional framework.

Do you have any curated pieces or special features in the salon?

Yes, the salon itself is a curated space that reflects both its natural surroundings and a modern sense of luxury. Set within a working farm, the original wooden barn beams have been left exposed, adding warmth and character, while the clean design, golden lighting and contemporary finishes bring a modern twist. Natural light floods the space from every angle, creating an uplifting, peaceful environment that feels both grounded and refined.
