Libertes, since 1992

Libertes Hair & Beauty is a hair and beauty salon at 858–860 Manchester Road, Bradford BD5. In the salon’s own words, it has been serving Bradford and West Yorkshire since 1992 with professional hair, skin and beauty treatments.

Hair and skin sit under one roof. On the hair side, the salon calls itself balayage experts and does colour, highlights, cuts and styling. On the skin side, it offers skin analysis and HydraFacials, and eyebrows come up in reviews too.

The words reviewers reach for most are about how they were looked after: “welcoming staff” comes up in 31 Google reviews, “comfortable atmosphere” in 27 and “friendly team” in 16. Several were first-timers, at a salon or with colour, and say they were talked through everything and never rushed.

Hijabi clients mention that the team put screens up in front of the window for them. Others rang on the day and were given a same-day appointment when there was room.
