The A Salon Called Fish team laughing together on the salon’s leather sofa

Team & prices

Everyone’s welcome. Here’s who you’ll meet.

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.

A finalist for Beauty Therapist of the Year 2026 at the Beauty Full Awards, and the person the junior therapists learn from.

Book with Gemma
  • “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”
