Bangshanky Hair Salon
Bangshanky's team has been connected for over a decade.
We want our kinship as a group to create a warm, inclusive space where you can kick off your shoes and know your hair is in safe hands.
There is no "house style". Whether you want a punk crop or soft glamour, we've got you.
We have specialists in cut, all types of colour, Asian hair and hair extensions.
We are the architects of your hair ambitions.
Opening times
We are open Monday to Saturday 9:30 til 18:30.
We also open later on some evenings, based on demand/appointments - please see stylist availability via online booking, or call 0117 929 7881 to check.
Meet the team
Location & parking
You'll find us in the very centre of Bristol, just up the road from Bristol Beacon.
We're easily accessible by bus, from the many stops on St Augustine's parade. There are bike racks all along the street too. On street parking is tricky, so we'd recommend Trenchard Street car park (closest) or College Street car park (cheapest) if you're driving.
History
Bangshanky was founded by Neil Whitcombe in 2014. After many years of managing other salons, he had a creative vision for his own, and passed on his decades of precision cut skills to a new generation, building a close team of stylists.
Chloe and Gemma worked within that team for many years, and in 2024 have now taken the reins to continue the legacy.
Chloe's background working in costume for television and Gemma's career dedicated to hair, interspersed with travel from the carnivals of Rio to cattle ranches in the outback, will bring new creative energy to the well established brand.
Training programme
We enjoy working with colleges to offer an ongoing apprenticeship at Bangshanky. Many of our graduates have remained as part of the stylist team long term. If you'd be interested in training with us, please come in with a CV and say hello.
