The Salon’s Story
Scott Holliman Hair opened in 2000 on Leadside Road, Rosemount, in a cosy two-chair salon with just enough room for a backwash. Despite its size, clients loved the welcoming atmosphere, and the business quickly grew.
After three years of making the most of the small space, Scott found the perfect opportunity to expand—into the shop next door. It was double the size, offering more room to work while keeping the same friendly vibe clients loved. Following a £20,000 renovation, the salon moved into its new home, where it has been proudly serving clients ever since.
About Scott Holliman
Scott’s journey into hairdressing began in the late 1980s when he worked as a Saturday Assistant at Rosedales on Crown Street. Encouraged by his parents to learn a trade, he quickly discovered a passion for hairdressing and decided to pursue it as a career.
In 1986, Scott trained at Beatson & Gordon, a well-known salon on Queens Road. He gained further experience at Hair by Peter on Holburn Street and later at Ishoka in Rosemount. These early roles gave him the skills and confidence to move forward in the industry.
As a Junior Stylist at Aztec on Belmont Street, Scott became frustrated with the lack of investment in staff training and development. This inspired him to take the leap and become self-employed. He started by renting a chair at Wilk’s on Huntly Street, followed by three successful years at Innovations on Thistle Street. But his dream was always to open his own salon.
In 2000, that dream became a reality when Scott opened his first salon on Leadside Road. From day one, he was committed to creating a space where clients could enjoy modern, stylish haircuts and colours.
