Ierephaan Hair Salon’s Address in Cape Town: 74 Bree Street, Cape Town 8001, South Africa.
The experience was very pleasant; it felt like home, with everyone so friendly.
The work was professional. I got a bob haircut, highlights, and for the first time, a keratin treatment.
Ierephaan you are much more than a hairstylist. Visiting the salon is a rare experience where I can confidently trust the outcome. Loooooove my new shaggy shag cut. Thank you for making me feel extraordinary, fabulous and ready to conquer. You truly live your craft!
The complements for my hair keep coming. I’ve been likened to a renaissance portrait and, my best yet, to Isabella Rossellini. Thank you for yet another great cut Irephaan. ✂️
I came to Ierephaan for the first time today, and what I expected to be a hair appointment turned into such a beautiful and unexpectedly enriching experience.
Ierephaan has a special gift. He is not only a hairstylist, he is an artist, and it genuinely feels as though he has art in his hands.
I am very particular about my hair, especially my bangs, and I wanted beautiful, soft face-framing bangs while preserving the length of my hair. He listened, understood what I wanted, and then used his artistry to create something even more beautiful than I had imagined. The way he cuts, shapes and understands how hair should frame a face is remarkable. I absolutely love my hair.
But what made the experience truly special was Ierephaan himself. He is such a lovely person to talk to, compassionate, empathetic, warm and incredibly positive. Our conversation had substance and heart. I left his chair not only loving my hair, but genuinely feeling uplifted and enriched by the time I spent with him.
Even the setting feels special. His salon is inside a breathtaking, art-filled building on Bree Street, and somehow it perfectly reflects the person working inside it: creative, individual and full of beautiful energy.
This was so much more than a basic hair appointment. It was one of those rare experiences where you meet someone who is exceptionally talented at what they do and also brings something positive to the people they meet.
I walked in hoping for a beautiful haircut and walked out feeling like I had found my hairstylist and met a beautiful human being along the way.
Ierephaan, you truly have a gift. Thank you for sharing your art with me. ❤️
Lovely experience, I felt super special afterwards. Will definitely recommend xx
The salon looks amazing I love the type of music they’re playing. Stuff and owner of the salon have a good communication with clients. Im impressed with their services. You can learn a lot of things from the salon. When you visit the salon it feels like you’re home. The salon has such incredible vibes, and you can feel the passion and talent in everything they do. If you’re looking for someone who combines talent with genuine care for his clients, look no further. I can’t recommend him enough! ♥️
When you have time visit Ierephaan the salon you’ll never regret yourself by doing that.✨

Hands down the best salon experience I’ve had in Cape Town! From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed by the most beautiful people and such a warm, vibrant atmosphere. The energy, the fun, and the genuine care from the team made the entire experience unforgettable.
The salon has such incredible vibes, and you can feel the passion and talent in everything they do. Most importantly, I have never been happier with my hair. The result exceeded every expectation, and I left feeling confident, refreshed, and absolutely beautiful.
I have always adored going to this salon
Treated like royalty. Champagne on hand. Fabulous relaxing music and first class service. My first port of call whenever I’m in South Africa.
Best hairdresser in Town… unbelievable good vibes! Anytime again
Exquisite space, professional, friendly and skilled. Ierephaan is a top stylist.
Best Salon in the Western Cape - well worth a drive to Cape Town - Ierephaan is a brilliant Stylist who listens to you (not many do!) He works magic & you walk out looking & feeling like a Star.
All the staff are Professional & pleasant on every level.
PS
The Salon has a stellar sound system and an eclectic mix lounge music, as well as coffee, tea & Bubbles!
World Class Knowledgeable Stylist.
What a brilliant Stylist to have as a fellow South African. Having travelled extensively,, an experience at Ierephaan’s is world class .
Highly recommended.
Had 2 outstanding blow dries whilst in Cape Town.
Lerephaan went out of his way to find me an appointment.
Seriously cool but welcoming salon.
Next time I'm in Cape Town I'll return for colour and highlights.
Brilliant
Ierephaan, the owner, received me so well, he is very firemdly and suggested us places to go, Misheck, my hairdresser, was very attentive to details, always tried to do that extra step to make me feel confortable and at home, I was very happy with his work.
The pla e itself is very trendy and beautifull i it's ease and eclectic decoration, it feels real, constructed with love and taste, rather than minimalistic and boring.
A must try !!!
They say magicians wield wands; Ierephaan wields scissors in much the same way. His cuts & styles cannot be matched, and he has a unique ability to cut my hair in a way that really frames my face and looks good whether my hair is styled or just left casually. Great experience overall but honestly, Ierephaan’s technique is what really sets his work apart.
Such a wonderful experience. They took me in and got a booking that very day. Great service from the owner and the guys! Listened to what I was looking for and gave fantastic results! Colour is vibrant and blended! Definitely coming back!
A fun and friendly place where everyone taking care of you, it was a pleasure for me to experience this salon.
Very kind and caring staff. The results were what I was hoping for. Great experience !
Everyone must definitely try out Ierephaan Hair Salon it was an amazing experience, I just went in for a wash, blow and iron I came out with a colour, I was extremely happy with my colour change and will not go to anyone else, Ierephaan talks you through the process and gives u advice while doing your hair, very welcoming atmosphere. They also have a beauty salon, Shogal beauty and I was super happy with my eyebrow threading, gone is waxing in with the Threading, I will definitely go back to them as I know and feel like I'm in the right place, if u know u know, try them you won't be sorry at all.
This salon is very over priced, 3000 for 2 blow dries and a trim! blow dry also dropped out as soon as we left the salon, irfan is very rude to his staff members also. very uncomfortable experience would not recommend !
Went in for 2 blow drys and was charged 3200 ZAR !! This was the worst experience of my life . The man who washed my hair literally pulled it out as he was washing and then irfan dried my hair it was extremely frizzy and fell out immediately . He has no price list apparently and was very rude when I questioned him about the extortionate price . I would not recommend this salon terrible customer service and even worse blow dry!
I had a mens facial grooming done by Mishek - facial , shave , beard trim and detail , haircut and facial waxing. His attention to detail was superb. He was gentle and very professional. Products used were of the highest quality as well.
Overall a wonderful experience will certainly return. Congratulations to Ierephaan , Mishek and team - Ashwin PE
My kids loved them
A place every women should visit
I enjoyed doing my hair there they are gentle and it’s fun to be there
At Ierephaans, you’ll leave with a masterful haircut/design and hospitable experience. I always look forward to my next appointment. He’s the best!
Ierephaan has truly mastered his craft. I always leave his salon feeling gorgeous!
Nice studio and good haircut but 950 RANDS FOR A JUST A HAIRCUT?! What a scam 👀 I was disappointed at the end of my experience here because of that. It definitely doesn't worth it.
I’ve been going to Ierephaan for years now, and I always leave so so happy. I have very thick curly hair that’s so hard to manage and him and his staff always handle it so well. The music and the coffee are great bonuses too, and he always recommends the best products for me to use 💐
I wish I could give more stars! Ierephaan and his wonderful team were absolutely amazing from start to finish. Based on my consultation, Ierephaan and I decided an up do was best to support the overall look for the day, which before arriving at the salon I had not considered as it is out of my usual comfort zone. After walking into the salon I felt welcomed and that Ierephaan’s vision was on the mark, which I’m so grateful for and am still in love with the end result.
Photos attached are from neatly 12hrs after my hair was initially done - seriously amazing hold, craft, and raw talent!
Can’t wait to visit again when I’m in Cape Town next
Hair studio, but make it an art gallery! I felt truly cared for, completely entrusted the styling to Ierephaan, and the end result did not disappoint. In fact it was better than I had hope for. I would definitely be back next time I'm in Cape Town.
what an amazing experience and results with Ierephaan’s Hair Products. clean, silky and shiny, i love it 😍
Our experience with you guys was fantastic, excellent service and attention. My girlfriend is very happy with your work. We comeback sure, hi recommend.
I visited Lerephaan's salon on my holiday trip. Visually it's a real eye-catcher. He and the team made me feel great as soon as I entered the salon. My wishes were taken into account and I was given good advice. Lerephaan knows exactly what he has to do and understands his craft. His employees are also very competent and do a great job. The relationship between customers and service providers is friendly, so it's easier to let yourself go. I was/am more than happy with my new haircut! Anyone in Cape Town should have a visit with Lerephaan and his team on their to-do list. ??☺️
During our travel for months my hair realy needed a cut and the color was terrible. Ierephaan and his colleagues did a wonderfull job. The color is from red to just natural again. Besides he is a real artist in coloring he also is a good hair-cutter. And a good and friendly teacher for his staff! I like that.
And they also painted and shaped my eye brows .., a compleet metamorphose. The result is beautifull.
I realy recomemend Ierephaan!! Don’t expect it to be cheap. But it is worth every penny! And what you get is so much more than when you visit a more ‘regular’ salon.
Thank you all!!
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Ierephaan Hair Salon, and I must say that I was thoroughly impressed by the exceptional services I received. From the moment I stepped through the door, I was greeted with warm smiles and a welcoming atmosphere that immediately put me at ease.
The staff at Ierephaan Hair Salon is a testament to professionalism and expertise. They took the time to listen attentively to my hair concerns and desires, ensuring they understood exactly what I wanted. The level of attention and personalized care they provided throughout the entire experience was truly commendable.
Ierephaan is a truly talented and skilled individual. He displayed an extensive knowledge of various hairstyles and techniques, and their passion for their craft was evident in the flawless results they delivered. I was amazed at how effortlessly they transformed my hair into a work of art, exceeding my expectations in every way.
Not only did he demonstrate his technical prowess, but he also provided valuable advice on hair maintenance and product recommendations tailored to my specific needs. Their attention to detail and commitment to ensuring my satisfaction was truly remarkable.
In addition to the exceptional service, I must mention the salon's inviting ambiance and comfortable environment. The salon was immaculate, exuding a sense of artistry that enhanced the overall experience. The attention to detail in the salon's decor and furnishings further contributed to the salon's relaxing atmosphere.
Lastly, I must express my appreciation for the outstanding customer service at Ierephaan Hair Salon. The entire team, from the front desk to Ierephaan himself, treated me with the utmost respect and kindness. I highly recommend this salon to anyone seeking top-notch service and a truly exceptional hair salon experience.
I have been going to Ierephaan since the
80 's.
I have never been
dissaponted with the high quality services
He uses top quality hair products.
Definitely worth the
Cost!
it’s the best salon in the world ??
RIDICULOUS - I PAID R3000 FOR A HAIRCUT AND STREAKS .. WHAT A RIP OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!! WENT TO ANOTHER HAIRDRESSER AND ONLY PAID R500 FOR THE SAME !!!!
Absolutely world-class .. Ierephaan is a Master of his craft, Maestro and above all a kind loving soul... leaving his salon you feel like a million dollars!
Ierephaan is my hairdresser/stylist of choice and has been for many years. I go for a natural appearance with minimal makeup, keep my hair healthy and in-style and just ‘show up’ with confidence. Ierephaan Hair Salon always goes above and beyond to make sure that you look and feel your best. His extensive knowledge and experience makes him the best in the business! Recently, I had the pleasure of being styled by Ierephaan for a momentous occasion. His attention to detail is truly remarkable, and every aspect of my hair and make-up was flawless. On the day of the event, I received so many compliments on my appearance, (almost ?) all thanks to Ierephaan and his very capable team. In addition to his exceptional skills and talent, Ierephaan is also a kind and caring person who clearly loves what he does. I always feel like I am in the hands of a true professional, and I would recommend Ierephaan Hair Salon without hesitation to anyone looking for an outstanding hair and make-up stylist ??.
Ierephaan is an amazing stylist. I have known him for 30 years - and he even did my hair for my wedding 27 years ago. he is as current and on trend now as he was then! He is not only a good stylist but a great human being. He is kind, listens and cares about his clients' wellbeing. Its a treat to be in his company - your confidence is restored with a lovely service and your heart is warm with the friendly, fun banter. Standards are high and outcomes superb! Visit if you need a superior service and enjoy good company, too!
Visiting Ierephaan's is an experience and not just to get hair styled (NOTE not cut!!!). The human being Ierephaan is a tonic for the soul and a support for mental wellbeing. The Salon is a haven for getting in touch with the inner you.
Oh - by the way - you can also get your hair styled!!!!!!!
I have been a happy client at Ierephaans Hair salon for many many years. I regularly receive compliments about my hair whether its about the cut, colour, styling, general health of my hair. Its very difficult if I travel because its very hard to find the same standard of excellence in other hair salons. Very few stylists are able to create volume with my fine straight silky hair except at Ierephaans’ salon. The new salon space is intriguing, welcoming and filled with objects of interest!
I have been a client @Ierephaan for at least 20+ years! Of course we have become friends since then ! Quality of service is top notch, personal interaction is very conducive to exploring and discussing world issues! I live abroad and always get complimented on my hair and asked who’s my hairdresser ! People hardly believe I religiously fly to Cape Town to have my hair done @Ierephaan! That’s how much I trust him with my hair! ?
Ierephaan is a master of his craft and a true professional from the time you walk into his salon. Ierephaan is brilliant with styling and colouring. A visit to Ierephaan will not disappoint! Relaxing, caring and kind is his wonderful nature. I highly recommend you book an appointment for the best experience in being in the hands of a brilliant professional. Iris xxx
I am being serious when I say that I think Ierephaan is the best hair stylist and colourist in Africa. I don’t even live in South Africa, but when I travel to Cape Town, his salon is always the first place I go to as it’s an experience that sets the tone for the rest of my trip. Ierephaan’s professionalism, his simpatico, his attention to detail, and his extraordinary skill are not only evident in how I look when I leave his salon, but it’s evident in how he has made me FEEL. I will not go anywhere else!
I live in Paarl and especially go to town to cut my hair at Ierephaan's. He just knows how to cut like the best and has a fantastic eye - the salon also uses the best products etc. I trust him blindly. Aside from that, he is a bundle of positivity and happiness, which we all need now and again!
A wonderful all round experience! And the best stylist I know! Will definitely be going back!
Ierephaan is an artist. Magic at each stroke as he creates the contours shapes and textures. Often he is so focussed on your hair it’s just as mesmerising to watch him as it is to listen to his wisdoms - either way, I still rush to him as soon as I can when landing from London.
going to Ierephaan is far more than a excellent haircut, colour that is perfection and not harmful to your body or the environment... its a special experience! Unpretentious yet elegant, relaxed but still chic... and with a head massage that will ttansport you to another dimension.... did i say Ierephaan himself is also a legend anongst Hair stylists ? ?????
Irephaan! Walking into salon I could feel the excitement!
You just need to sit in that chair and leave every creative decision to Irephaan and trust him. You will not be dissappointed.?

Definitely not a commercial experience. Literally the only person I can trust to cut my hair without having any style direction in particular, knowing that I will end up loving the results! A master in his field and constant re-inventor, Ierephaan will make you fall in love with him
I love to be inspired...Ierephaan is all about that..creation.. craftsmanship..joy.. you leave the salon on an ultimate high.... the day I met you my friend is a day on my-remember-forever-calendar.. your work..and dedication to beauty is endless.. you don't want a haircut..you don't want highlights..you want Ierephaan!
Definitely my preferred place to go and adorn a new and unique design with no frown on perfection and style.
Ierephaan has a knack of getting things exactly the way you have thought of and also goes one step further to add finesse to it.
Truly artistic!! Highly recommended !!
Welcoming and warm from the minute you walk in! I've always been served with grace topped with a dash of laughter and humour. This world can always do with more of it! And whenever I leave the salon, I feel like a million dollars! Viva Ierephaan and team!
I would recommend Ierephaan to anybody wanting excellent service! From the time you walk in, meet Ierephaan, enjoy his wonderful hospitality, coffee, sense of humour and his incredible ability to style your hair - you will be sold on Ierephaan. Parking directly opposite his Salon makes it Ultra Convenient! Please do me and him a favour by popping at his Salon!
