SampooHair
Visitors say
Very nice experience! I am satified with the result. Yannis & Jenny have an eye for detail and give great advice 😃
One of the best hairdressers I've ever been to. John puts his heart into the work. He perfectly understands my idea of a haircut and pays attention to details. I highly recommend this salon!
About
Tucked into the heart of Kalloni, the commercial and agricultural hub of central Lesvos, SampooHair is a local hair salon offering cuts, styling, and hair care services to residents and visitors alike. Kalloni sits at the head of the Gulf of Kalloni, a sheltered inland sea renowned for its sardines and birdwatching, and the town serves as a natural crossroads for travelers exploring the island's interior.
A stop at SampooHair offers more than just a trim — it is the kind of neighbourhood business where you get a genuine feel for everyday life on Lesvos. The friendly, unhurried atmosphere typical of Greek island towns means a visit here doubles as a chance to rest, chat with locals, and experience the warm hospitality the island is known for. Whether you need a refresh after days on the beach or simply want to look your best before dinner at one of Kalloni's seafood tavernas, this salon provides a welcoming, professional service in a relaxed setting.
For travellers spending time in the Kalloni area — perhaps exploring the nearby Petrified Forest museum at Sigri, the salt pans that attract flamingos and wading birds, or the ancient sites scattered across central Lesvos — SampooHair is a practical and pleasant stop that reflects the island's easy, unpretentious character. It is a reminder that the best travel experiences often come from simply living alongside a place, even briefly, rather than just passing through.
Before you go
What to expect
SampooHair sits on Kalloni's main commercial street, surrounded by the town's small shops and kafeneions. It's a neighbourhood salon where the pace is unhurried and the atmosphere genuinely friendly — a haircut here easily becomes a short, unplanned conversation about the island. Practical and welcoming, it's the kind of stop that slots naturally into a day of exploring the Kalloni basin.
Best time to visit
Open year-round; July and August are the busiest months in the area, so May–June and September–October make for a more relaxed visit.
How to get there
Kalloni is roughly a 40-minute drive from Mytilene along the main cross-island road heading northwest; the town is well-signposted and the salon is in the central commercial area.

My daughter and I got a haircut. My hair is less than half (due to excessive thinning). My daughter's haircut is terrible. I went to a good hairdresser in Athens and they were horrified!! There shouldn't be so much thinning, because right now I only have 5 hairs from a blanket!! The little one had a crooked perimeter and very short hair on the inside compared to the outside! The botox I had the second time was for nothing, because it was lost..just like my hair was lost and all that was left is 5 straws!! The damage is done and I need a short haircut or extensions right now! Now regarding what I said about another hairdresser, I didn't say it publicly, because it wasn't serious. The problem is with the result, not with you personally..you were just being polite! But this is the first time I've suffered such damage, and unfortunately you should have known about it...I wish Google hadn't existed in these unfortunate moments.

It's a shame that you weren't satisfied with a service that is one of our Best Sellers!<br>We could have ended up with a better result for you, despite our advice, for a necessary haircut (your frequency over the year was well above average) and of course for the use of a "stronger" treatment (which you could not afford financially.)<br>It should also be mentioned that the care you give to your hair throughout the winter season is unfortunately not easy to restore during your vacation period on our island, where you visited us....<br>It is a shame to take advantage of the convenience that Google gives for commenting on businesses (you made similar comments for another colleague in the area!) without giving the full picture. We are obliged to supplement it with our own explanation because from what you see, our general image as a business does not correspond to the image you give.<br>You could also take advantage of our reflexes in corresponding cases but the problem is probably elsewhere!... 😉Thank you for the preference so far your....🫶

John is a great hairdresser. He cut and dyed my hair(even with my own hair dye.) and shaped my husband’s beard. He does exactly what you want and if you don’t know what you want then he gives you a good advise. His wife Jenny and John are very friendly people. I highly recommend this hairdresser.

I chose this hair salon from the internet because it had very good reviews and in the end it was right for me! I called to get highlights done at noon, meaning I was traveling in the evening (very limited time) Mr. Giannis served me as he opened earlier and instead of rushing, he quickly sat me down, talked to me about my hair, looked at it and suggested what to do so that I wouldn't get it in my hand! In the end, the result was perfect, I liked it very much! Thank you

Very nice large space. Easy parking outside the store. Nice haircut with detail. They answered the phone immediately and served me perfectly. Large variety of products for purchase inside the store for men and women. Without being 100% sure it does not have access for disabled people. I highly recommend it
