Before Opening Charlie Bean Salon, Selina had dreamed and aspired to create a beautiful, ambient space where you can come, relax and feel pampered. After working within the industry for so many years, Selina discovered that there was a market missing for a space like hers that provided quality hairdressing along with personalised service. With it's beautifully designed interior, Charlie Bean Salon welcomes you with confidence that you will enjoy the ambient, calming, and professional atmosphere it holds as well as the highly trained and experienced team that makes Charlie Bean Salon.
