“It's
always tea-time.” - Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland
A trip to Pages Salons is not merely a routine hair appointment. We aim to provide an experience where you can relax, unwind and be revitalized while being pampered and styled.
With this in mind (and considering the British tradition and love of a good brew), we offer our clients (that’s you!) a cosy lounge area where you can enjoy a little “me-time” - prior to or following your treatment - with a delicious, complimentary (and hot!) cup of Tea Pigs tea!

Aside from the fact that tea warms your
cockles and provides a great excuse for a good old chinwag, a piping hot brew is
also proven to help reduce stress levels, boost energy levels & help combat
ailments.
At Pages Salons, we provide a range of amazing,
highest-quality teas from Teapigs for you to savour. Today, we’re introducing
you to a few of the favourites so that next time you pop by for a treatment, you can indulge
yourself. (Thanks to Teapigs for the descriptions and the yummy teas!)
Super
Fruit - bursting
with super fruits
The wishy-washy fruit teas are no longer –
hurrah! We’ve popped real whole berries (cranberries and blueberries to be
precise) to give a fruit tea that packs a super fruity punch – finally! These
ingredients are great little super-foods so as well as a great tasting cuppa,
you get a health kick too!
How
does it taste?
Super and fruity - this cheeky drink is a
little tart!
Good
if you're feeling…
Slow and lifeless. The antioxidants in our
super fruits will help stave off “Squashed Hedgehog Syndrome” (i.e. “feeling
run down” – get it? Sorry ....)
What
is in it?
Hibiscus, elderberry, blackcurrant, raisin,
natural flavours, ligonberry, blueberry
Liquorice
and mint - sweet
treat
One of our best sellers, this little combo
has hit the spot with lots of you. We use the natural root of the liquorice
plant (not the black sticky stuff you’re thinking of!) and have blended it with
our of pure peppermint leaves to create a naturally sweet and refreshing drink
that is irresistibly moreish. Liquorice has been used in Chinese medicine
for years and is known as “the great detoxifier” – sounds great!
How
does it taste?
Sweet, liquorice, mint and sweet again.
Good
if you're feeling…
In need of a little treat, or,
alternatively, in need of a tea to soothe a sore throat.
What
is in it?
Liquorice root and peppermint
Mao
feng green tea - green with envy
Call us soppy romantics, but we like this
story. A young man and a beautiful young woman from a tea plantation were in
love, but the local tyrant seized her as his concubine. She escaped, only to
learn that the tyrant had killed her lover. Finding his body deep in the
mountains she wept and wept until she became the rain, while her lover's body
turned into a tea bush. Which is why, according to the legend, the area where
Mao Feng tea grows is forever cloudy and humid the whole year round. All
together now…ahhh! This tea is special, unlike any other green tea on the
market. A green tea liked by people who don’t like green tea.
How
does it taste?
This tea has a delicate natural taste of
fresh summer air, peaches and apricots. The infusion will turn clear pale green
(not the murky brown you often see with standard green teas).
Good
if you're feeling…
In need of a make-over. Can’t afford rehab,
liposuction or Botox? Why not settle for a nice cuppa? You may have heard about
the many reputed benefits of drinking green tea, ranging from weight loss to
anti-ageing - more fun than cosmetic surgery!
What
is in it?
Pure mao feng green tea
Lemon
and ginger - lazy
days
Close the door to the wind and rain and
brew up this all-natural, gingery, lemony brew to sweep you away to a British
summer's day. Think home-made lemonade, traditional ginger beer, croquet
and morris dancers (ok, perhaps a step too far), it’s simply summer in a cup.
There is no match for the ginger kick and refreshing lemon in this
infusion.
Please note this blend contains liquorice.
How
does it taste?
A light, refreshing burst of citrus with the
subtle warmth of ginger.
Good
if you're feeling…
Mellow - this lemon and gingery blend will
lift your spirits on even the cloudiest of days.
What
is in it?
Ginger, lemongrass, lemon peel, liquorice
root
