Both floors are accessible through their own entrances
In 2016, Richard and his wife, Janaya, decided that their expanding hair and beauty business had outgrown the salon in which it had started 26 years before. They began to look for larger premises in their home town of Chapel-en-le-Frith and found the perfect place at 73 Market Street. It had a town centre location and enough room to accommodate their growing business, but it would require a complete overhaul if it was to become the luxury salon that they wanted. Not put off at the prospect of months of building work, Richard and Janaya began to draw up their plans.
The salon today is the result of a full renovation, where Richard and Janaya worked closely with architects and designers to completely transform the space into a stylish and contemporary hair and beauty salon. Spread over 2 floors, it boasts custom made fittings that have been beautifully crafted to be both functional and aesthetically pleasing, and the combination of contemporary and original features work perfectly to create a modern style that is both warm and welcoming.
Richard Martin brings a city centre style salon to the small, picturesque town of Chapel-en-le-Frith in Derbyshire. Dubbed the' Capital of the Peak', the town is steeped in history and surrounded by incredible landscapes. It's the perfect place to come for some professional pampering. You'll find us on the main road through the town, where the salon's traditional facade sits perfectly among independent shops, award winning cafes and popular restaurants, but come through the door for a very modern hair and beauty salon that offers creative cuts, professional colouring and the latest beauty treatments at affordable prices.
At Richard Martin you'll find a relaxed and friendly atmosphere with a professional team who are dedicated to making your appointment enjoyable. As Richard himself says, 'It's not just about the hairstyle or the treatment, it's about the whole salon experience. We want to make sure that every client enjoys their time with us and leaves looking and feeling great.' Our team focuses on keeping customers looking great by knowing the latest trends, treatments and techniques, but our main source of inspiration is the client. We like to get to know them, listen to what they have to say and then advise them on their hair style, beauty treatment or a tanning session. Building lasting relationships with our clients is extremely important to us at Richard Martin because it allows us to evolve your style with trust and experience.
