Our Story

Launched in 2017, Escape Hairdressing’s team has a history of 20 years of working together. David Wyke opened his first salon in Oslo, Bogstadveien, working together with the world-renowned, Toni&Guy, to open their flagship store in Norway in 1998. Over the years David focused on quality and creativity, building a loyal team, which continued on his new venture Escape Hairdressing to create a salon that focuses on putting the uniqueness of each client first.

Our dedication to our trade is a strong driving force, which we hold at great importance. We constantly keep learning, updating and adapting by sending our team around the world to experience new ideas from many different points of view.

This melting pot of influences keeps us at the top of our game and allows us to constantly assess ourselves. In addition, our multicultural team are keen to embrace influences from around the globe and contribute to creating a burgeoning environment, where creativity and individuality can thrive whilst upholding the highest quality across all our fields.

At Escape, our aim is to deliver a luxurious experience of the highest quality at a price that is affordable. Like our team, we focus on individuality and celebrating the different qualities each person possesses where we focus on their needs as an individual. Every haircut and colour is bespoke and tailored to suit each and every client.

PHILOSOPHY

At Escape we wish to develop a brand with a purpose, embracing our loyal clientele, sharing our knowledge through education and showcasing our skills through photo shoots and hair shows.

Developing a team with strong morals in the industry is a priority, and we take time to ensure our hairdressers have a complete and comprehensive understanding of cutting and colouring hair before we allow them to be with clients. With this, we aim to create a benchmark for other hairdressers.

Creativity is encouraged and we have a constant thirst to be better in every aspect; combined with a down-to-earth, professional and friendly atmosphere.

Our work is timeless, individual and client-focused. We have a strong wish to raise the industry levels and to create an experience for our clients with impeccable detail; from in-depth consultations to personalising every hairstyle to suit you and your lifestyle.
