About Me

Hey, I'm Charlotte, but you can call me Charley!

I'm the face behind Charlotte Hannah Hair & Beauty, working from my private home salon in Somersham, Cambridgeshire.

It's a relaxed little space where you can come for your hair or nails, have a proper catch-up and enjoy a bit of time for yourself. I offer one-to-one appointments, so when you're here, my time and attention are completely yours. No juggling clients or rushing between appointments, just you and me.

Whether it's your first visit or your fiftieth, I want you to feel right at home.

So, how did it all start?

Beauty has always been something I've loved. I studied Beauty Therapy Sciences at college, but life took me in a different direction and I ended up taking a break from the industry to work in the corporate world.

Hair extensions, though, have been part of my life since I was 16. I've always had naturally fine hair and, over the years, I've tried pretty much every extension method going! I know how it feels when you're not happy with your hair. I understand how much it can affect your confidence, and how a little extra length and fullness can help you feel more like yourself.

But I've also learnt the hard way.

For years, I wore clip-in extensions without really understanding the damage they could cause when not used correctly. Eventually, I decided I wanted something a bit more permanent. I was fed up with constantly putting extensions in and taking them out, so I booked myself in for a weave consultation.

What I didn't expect was to find out I had traction alopecia.

I genuinely had no idea. All those years of wearing clip-ins had taken their toll on my natural hair, and at that point, we didn't even know whether it would recover.

We decided to give it a go, and thankfully, with the right method, careful fitting and looking after my natural hair along the way, I was lucky enough for my hair to grow back.

I like to think I'm living proof that hair extensions don't have to damage your natural hair when the right method is chosen, they're fitted correctly and properly maintained.

That whole experience completely changed the way I looked at hair extensions. I already knew how much I loved wearing them and how they made me feel, but now I understood just how important it was to get them right.

At the same time, I was working in a corporate job and found myself wanting to do something more rewarding. Something I genuinely loved, where I could help other people feel as confident as I did with my extensions.

So, I decided to go back to my beauty roots and train professionally in hair extensions. And that's really where Charlotte Hannah Hair & Beauty began.

And then came the nails...

In December 2025, I expanded into nails, bringing another part of the beauty industry I love into the salon.

These days, it's not just about extensions. I also offer nail treatments, blowdries and a little hair tinsel for anyone who fancies something extra.

Whether you're coming in for fresh nails, a bouncy blowdry or longer, fuller hair, I want you to enjoy your appointment just as much as the results. It's your time, and I want you to leave feeling good about yourself.

I'm a big believer in taking the time to do things properly, paying attention to the little details and making sure your natural hair and nails are looked after along the way.

And when it comes to extensions, there's one thing I'll always stand by:

I want you to love your extensions, but never at the expense of your own hair.

What that means for you

Your hair health comes before a sale.

I know first-hand just how much your hair can affect the way you feel about yourself. That's why I'll always take the time to listen, understand what you're hoping to achieve and make sure you feel comfortable and confident every step of the way.

We’ll chat about your hair, your routine and what you’re hoping for. If a method, length or weight isn’t going to suit you, I’ll explain why and we’ll look at other options. And if extensions aren’t right for you just now, I’ll be honest with you.

I want you to absolutely love your hair, and to know it’s being properly looked after from our first chat onwards.

The salon

A calm, private space.

I work from my private home salon in Somersham, offering one-to-one appointments so it’s just you and me.

Your appointment is your time. A chance to step away from whatever chaos might be going on outside the door, switch off for a little while and have some time that’s completely about you.

We can chat, gossip, laugh, cry, have a good old rant or sit in complete silence. Whatever you need that day is absolutely fine with me. You don’t have to turn up with your life together or be in the mood to chat.

There’s no pressure to have it all together here. Just come as you are, and I’ll take care of the rest.

I’d love to meet you.
