Stylists grouped by grade, with what each grade means and what it costs. Therapists upstairs. Book a person, not a salon.
How grades work
Five grades, and the price follows the grade.
Each grade reflects the experience, skills and specialism of the stylist, and the price follows the grade. Our
academy stylists are the most affordable way to have your hair done at A Salon Called Fish, with the senior team
beside them. Every “Book with” button opens that person’s own menu and prices in Phorest.
Grade
Hair Director
Runs the salon floor and sets the standard: the most experienced hands in the building.
Jude runs the hair floor and has done for years. Trained by some of the industry’s best, she’s known for colour, precision cutting and a calm way of getting you to exactly the look you had in mind.
Clients come back for the hair and stay for the chat. A visit with Jude tends to involve both.
“A visit to Jude is good for the hair and good for your soul. You leave the salon looking and feeling a million dollars.”
“Every time Jude colours my hair, I look like the main character in a rom-com glow-up montage. If you want fabulous colour and a good laugh while you’re at it, Jude’s your person!”
Julie joined us in December 2025 with over 30 years of industry expertise. Precision colour, corrective work and tailored consultations are her thing; so is a bold change done properly.
If your hair has been through a home-dye mishap, Julie is who you want in the chair.
Bev has over two decades in the industry and a reputation for looks that flatter and are easy to keep up at home. Balayage, highlights, textured cuts and occasion hair are where she shines.
Quietly delivering some of the best blondes at A Salon Called Fish. Now you know.
Angela has over 15 years in hairdressing and a client-first way of working. Precision cutting, colour and grey blending that grows out gracefully are her specialities.
She works with your hair rather than against it, which is why nervous first-timers often end up as regulars.
“Excellent service, care and attention to detail. Both my daughter and I love coming to the salon, it's a real treat for us. Angela always takes the best care of us and we leave with beautiful hair!”
“Fab colour once again from Angie, blends really well and brilliant service. Would 100% recommend.”
Jaz is our blonde specialist: soft sun-kissed balayage, icy toners, and the big transformations you see on our Instagram. She loves longer hair and a big bouncy blow dry.
If your blonde has gone brassy, this is the chair to book.
“Jaz was superb, great techniques deployed, great advice and guidance throughout the process. I knew I was in good hands with both the colour and the cut! I would highly recommend Jaz as a stylist at SCF.”
“First time back in the salon for a while! I had a colour and cut with jasmine. She did a great job at transforming my hair from a dull blonde to a bright blonde again! I had a simple cut and she did a great job. I will be booking back in with Jasmine again - and hopefully sooner than a year 😆”
Qualified and building a column of their own, with a full cut and colour menu at a lower price.

Beauty Director & Skin Specialist
Gemma Bowden
Permanent makeup · Gel, BIAB & acrylic nails · Nail art · Facials & microneedling · Lashes & brows · Waxing
Gemma leads the beauty floor, with over 15 years in the industry and a particular focus on skin health. She is our permanent makeup artist and trained in facials, microneedling, nails, lashes, brows and waxing.
A finalist for Beauty Therapist of the Year 2026 at the Beauty Full Awards, and the person the junior therapists learn from.
“I felt complete confidence in Gemma's treatment at a Salon Called Fish in Ivybridge I've had permanent makeup about four times over the past 25 years in two other salons (overseas and UK) and was happy enough. But Gemma really listened and took time to ensure both the shape and colour of eyebrows and lips were EXACTLY right for me before starting. The shapes and colours are the best I've ever had and as a result the appearance is balanced and natural looking, even freshly applied. I'm delighted with the result already and know from experience as colours settle it will look even better in a couple of weeks. Very happy to recommend Gemma.”
“Gemma always does a fantastic job on my nails. I never come away disappointed! She's incredibly conscientious, professional & friendly. Would highly recommend her beauty services”
Nicole studied Beauty Level 2 and 3 after 15 years in hospitality, and lashes are her biggest passion: classic, hybrid, volume, and the occasional pop of colour.
There’s nothing she likes hearing more than “I love them, I feel so pretty!”
BIAB · Hard gel · Gel polish · Manicures · Luxury pedicures
In the salon: Wednesdays, Thursdays and every other Saturday
Rudite completed her Level 3 Nail Technician Diploma in Plymouth and found the thing she loves: beautiful nails, especially BIAB, hard gel and gel polish.
Her luxury pedicure is the one people talk about. Soak, shape, hard skin, exfoliation, mask, heat, massage, polish.
Cheryl is a Level 4 qualified, ITEC and FHT accredited sports therapist. She treats sporting injuries, chronic pain and postural issues with hands-on therapy, exercise and plain advice.
You’ll be assessed on consultation and a treatment plan made before any treatment takes place.
Brow waxing · Lip & chin · Underarms · Arms · Legs · Bikini line
In the salon: Wednesdays, 2pm to 7.30pm
Laura joined the beauty team in October 2026 as a newly qualified waxing therapist. Brows, face, underarms, arms, legs and bikini, with a big focus on making you feel comfortable and at ease.
Naturally chatty, so expect a wax, a catch-up and probably a few laughs.
Gel polish · BIAB · Manicures & pedicures · Nail art · Full coverage extensions
Erin joined the beauty team in May 2026 for gel polish, BIAB, manicures, pedicures and nail art, and introduced our full coverage nail extensions: strong, slim and quick enough to do in a lunch break.
“Erin as always, does a super job of my nails! I really throw her in the deep end with my ideas and she always pulls it off! The salon is very welcoming too. Always greeted with a smile and a drink. Thank you! (Photo with this review, is when I asked Erin to create a matchy matchy with my horse’s Bridle.. she aced it!)”
“Fabulous pedicure by Erin. Was very impressed when she pointed out that the colour I had chosen looked darker than on the swatch. Came back with different alternatives that were a closer match, and one was just what I wanted Friendly and professional - will be such an asset to the team.”
