Our Story

A studio where
you are always welcome.

The Copper Comb opened its doors on Bird Street in 2013. We were three stylists who believed that a great haircut should not require a long waitlist or a parking disaster. Stellenbosch is our town. We know our clients by name, we know their kids, and we know exactly how they take their rooibos.

We work with all hair textures, from tight coils to poker-straight, and we will never talk you into a service you do not need. Just honest work, fairly priced.

I have been coming here since they opened. Hanlie remembers exactly how I like my hair cut every single time. It is like having a friend who is also a brilliant stylist.

Yasmin did my colour for my daughter's wedding. Absolute perfection. The whole bridal party left looking incredible. Best money I have ever spent on my hair.

★★★★★

Thandi is the first stylist who has truly understood my natural hair. She took her time and the result was gorgeous. I will not go anywhere else.

Walked in off the street on a busy Saturday and they fitted me in. Hanlie did my colour perfectly. Price was honest and fair. This is my salon now.
