What Affects the Cost?

Pricing in Lerwick reflects island location, travel time to remote properties, and product costs. The small population means limited competition, which can affect rates. Hair length, thickness, and condition influence colour and treatment pricing. Experienced stylists with specialist skills (balayage, perms) charge more. Some mobile hairdressers apply travel surcharges for outlying areas or charge consultation fees for first-time clients assessing hair type and product needs.

Money-Saving Tips

Book services during off-peak times (mid-week mornings) for possible discounts. Build regular client relationships—many mobile hairdressers offer loyalty discounts or package deals for repeat bookings. Combining services (cut and colour) in one appointment often costs less than booking separately.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do mobile hairdressers in Lerwick charge a travel fee?

Many do, especially for outlying properties beyond central Lerwick. Travel charges typically range from £5–£15 depending on distance. Always confirm travel costs when booking to avoid surprises.

Are products included in the quoted price?

Usually yes—professional shampoos, conditioners, and colour are included in standard pricing. Specialist treatments or premium products may incur additional charges. Clarify with your stylist upfront.

What's the typical appointment length for colour services?

Full head colour typically takes 1.5–2.5 hours depending on hair length and desired shade. Root touch-ups are shorter, around 45 minutes to 1 hour. Your stylist will give a time estimate during booking.

Can I get a discount for booking multiple family members?

Some mobile hairdressers offer small discounts for back-to-back appointments (e.g. mum, daughter, grandmother). Worth asking when you book—loyalty is often rewarded in small communities like Lerwick.
