This gallery gives an honest look at both studios in St John's Wood, London — the barbershop chairs and grooming stations at Maverick, and the treatment rooms and nail bar at Lavish. We'd rather show a genuine, slightly imperfect photo of the actual space than a polished stock image of somewhere you'll never visit, so what's here reflects the studio you'll actually walk into.

Before-and-after photography is added as clients agree to share their results — we don't use stock or unrelated transformation photos to stand in for real client work, since that would misrepresent what either team can actually do. If a specific result matters to you, whether that's a Brazilian wax finish, a gel manicure, or a particular fade, ask to see recent examples in person at consultation.

Photos here are grouped by studio rather than mixed together, since Maverick and Lavish are separate businesses with their own spaces — the barbershop chairs and grooming stations sit in one part of the building, and the beauty treatment rooms and nail bar in another, so what you see reflects the actual room you'd be booked into for a given service.

What to Expect

The Details That Don't Always Photograph Well

Tools Sanitised Between Clients

Clippers, razors, waxing equipment and nail tools are cleaned and sanitised between every single client, following standard UK hygiene practice for barbering and beauty treatments.

Unhurried Appointment Slots

Rooms and chairs aren't double-booked to squeeze in extra appointments — the pace you see reflected in the photos is the pace of an actual visit.

Separate Spaces, Shared Standard

Maverick and Lavish operate from distinct areas of the same building, each set up specifically for its own craft rather than a shared, generic salon layout.

Maverick Grooming Studio

Inside the Barbershop

Grooming stations, tools and the day-to-day feel of a men's barbershop built for precision cuts, traditional shaves and beard work — not a quick-turnaround chain salon.

Lavish Hair & Beauty

Inside the Salon

The nail bar, facial treatment rooms and waxing suites that make up Lavish Hair & Beauty — set up for treatments that need real time and quiet, not a production line.

Good to Know

Gallery Questions

Are these real photos of the studio, or stock images?

The interior photography reflects the actual layout and feel of both studios in St John's Wood. Before-and-after client photography is added only as clients agree to share it, rather than substituted with unrelated stock images.

Can I see examples of a specific barber or therapist's work before booking?

Ask at consultation, or mention it when you book — most team members are happy to talk through recent work relevant to what you're after, even if it isn't yet pictured here.

Will my before-and-after photos be used without permission?

No — any client photography used here is only added with explicit agreement. If you'd rather your result wasn't photographed at all, just say so at your appointment.

How often is the gallery updated?

As new studio photography and agreed client transformations become available. Check back periodically, or ask in studio to see the most recent work in person.
