Boilerhouse

Boilerhouse in Jesmond is the brainchild of Kim Le-Neveu and Steve Jones, hairdressing heavyweights with over 30 years salon experience apiece. Both started out with Vidal Sassoon, followed by a three year stint delivering training and seminars in the Far East. Before returning home the pair spent time in Australia, producing fashion and photography work for top magazines.

Back at home, Kim and Steve found themselves in great demand. Boilerhouse opened its doors in Jesmond, Newcastle in 1985 and rapidly established a well-deserved reputation as a leading salon in the region. Boilerhouse has since gone from strength to strength, with Kim as head stylist and trainer and Steve as full-time salon manager. The salon has proved a hit both with customers and within the fashion world. The team are regularly involved in fashion events, with Boilerhouse cuts and styles published in most major national and international hair magazines.
