TONI&GUY opens salon at Lakeside Shopping Centre

Lakeside Shopping Centre, part of SGS UK Retail Group, has welcomed the return of iconic British hairdressing brand TONI&GUY, with a new salon which opened on 25^th July.

Occupying a 942 sq ft unit on the lower mall, the brand-new salon has been designed to reflect the future of hairdressing – bringing the brand’s world-renowned creative excellence, technical precision, and personalised hairdressing service to one of the UK’s premier retail destinations.

The opening of TONI&GUY Lakeside marks an exciting step in the brand’s mission to deliver premium, fashion-led hairdressing across the UK – where innovation, education, and excellence remain at the heart of everything they do.

With tailored zones for cutting and colouring, digital trend screens, a serene hair spa, and air-pressure massage chairs, the salon delivers a luxurious, client-first experience that celebrates self-expression and wellbeing in equal measure.

The new salon is led by long-standing TONI&GUY partner and franchisee Tom Clarke, whose hairdressing journey began at Lakeside back in 2002. Inspired by the brand’s bold collections, Tom trained at the original salon before rising through the ranks. He now returns, two decades and a second successful salon later, with a fresh vision and renewed energy.

Tom Clarke, TONI&GUY Partner and Franchisee said: “Reopening in Lakeside feels like coming home. This is where it all started for me. TONI&GUY has shaped my career and my passion, and I’m excited to bring something truly special back to where my journey began.”

Lakeside was the perfect location for our next-generation salon, as it aligns with our goal of building a space where people feel confident, inspired, and looked after. Clients can expect the award-winning service TONI&GUY is known for, delivered in a contemporary space designed to uplift and energise.”

TONI&GUY Lakeside will offer a full menu of services, including bespoke cutting and colouring, luxury hair extensions, keratin smoothing treatments, and hair therapy. Every appointment is crafted with the brand’s signature precision, creativity, and care.

Rob Jewell, Managing Director, Asset Management at Pradera Lateral commented: “TONI&GUY is a globally recognised leader in premium hairdressing, and its arrival contributes to our strategy of welcoming aspirational brands across retail, leisure and wellbeing. As we continue to develop our brand mix, this new addition reflects our commitment to meeting changing customer expectations for destinations that offer more than just shopping. TONI&GUY will play an important role in giving our customers access to world-renowned brands – driving footfall and dwell time.”
