About Us
Harpo Hair
Where luxury meets elegance in every strand.
In 2014, Posey founded Harpo Hair on Hampton St, Brighton, and later opened a second salon on Were St, Brighton in 2017. Despite being two locations, the team works seamlessly as one, creating an intimate and luxurious atmosphere with ample appointments for both new and returning clients.
Our goal is to provide the same bespoke luxury experience at both salons. We use the same system across both locations, ensuring we have a shared history and all details from your appointments. At Harpo Hair, we take pride in being at the forefront of the hairdressing industry, partnering with Loreal and Kerastase since our establishment in 2014. We continuously train on the latest trends and products in the industry and offer Loreal training and education from talented industry experts.
We also operate a training salon, where we nurture the skills and talents of five apprentices, honing their craft to become exceptional hairdressers under the Harpo brand. Our staff, who have been with us for years, are regarded as members of our extended family, and we prioritize their professional growth and development.
Our team is friendly, professional, and passionate about hair. At Harpo salons, we aim to create a luxurious experience for all clients by offering bespoke treats, refreshments, and an up-to-date selection of magazines catered to all tastes. Our priority is to ensure that clients leave feeling relaxed and satisfied with their experience, tailored to their specific needs.

Posey
Posey has been working in hair salons honing her skills since she was 14 years old, but always had the dream of owning her own. After winning ‘Apprentice of the Year’ in 2009, she knew her next goal would be working towards her lifelong goal of opening up her perfect salon – a salon in which the little things matter and customers come first.
Posey opened her first salon located on Hampton Street in Brighton in February 2014, which focused heavily on stocking the best brands in the industry and continuously training her staff to be up to date with industry trends and techniques. However, the biggest focus of the salon for Posey was ensuring that customers felt a little bit of luxury every time they visited. It is this passion for her customers which has enables Posey to open her second salon in 2017, located on Were Street, Brighton.
Posey specialises in both colouring and cutting and believes in constant education to ensure our clients get the best experience possible by truly understanding cutting edge techniques and trends. From the moment you walk in the door, to the moment you leave Posey’s number one priority is that you not only have great hair, but that you have enjoyed every element of your experience leaving relaxed and rejuvenated.
