Welcome to Lucid
Southampton's Original Headshop and your destination for alternative lifestyle products
Lucid, in the heart of Southampton, is the city’s Original Headshop and alternative lifestyle store, proudly independent for over 25 years. Over time, Lucid has become part of Southampton’s cultural fabric, serving students, professionals, ravers, the LGBT+ community and the wider alternative scene, with a welcoming, inclusive space and expert, friendly, non‑judgemental service.
We carry Southampton’s biggest selection of body piercing jewellery — from barbells, rings and labrets to navel bars, eyebrow bars, nose studs, plugs and tunnels — with knowledgeable staff ready to guide and advise.
Alongside piercing jewellery, Lucid offers one of the city’s widest ranges of smoking accessories, including rolling papers, filters, blunt wraps, cones, lighters, grinders, bongs, pipes, trays and RAW lifestyle gear, plus herbal vaporisers from leading names such as Storz & Bickel.
Our shelves also feature vape kits with hardware from industry leaders such as Voopoo, Geekvape, OXVA, UWell, Vaporesso and Aspire, and e‑liquids from Vampire Vape, ELUX and Drifter, alongside the full range of ZYN nicotine pouches. Plant‑based wellness items are also available, all carefully selected with a focus on quality.
Lucid is also THE destination for heated tobacco products, stocking IQOS devices in a full range of colours and the complete selection of TEREA stick flavours. This dedicated section ensures customers can explore the latest alternatives to traditional smoking with variety and choice.
For cigar lovers, we carry premium, EMS Certified Cuban Havanas with brands including Cohiba, Montecristo, Romeo y Julieta, Partagás and Backwoods, all stored in a humidity‑controlled humidor to guarantee freshness.
Beyond piercing jewellery, smoking and vaping, Lucid is known for fashion and beauty accessories such as Directions hair dye, as well as festival gear and seasonal items. At Christmas we create set‑price bundles and gift packaging, while at Halloween we stock colourful contact lenses, fake blood, face paints, latex scars and other fancy dress essentials.
Whether you're chasing the perfect nose stud, rolling with RAW papers, hunting down Havana cigars, or upgrading your vape game — Lucid’s got you covered. Piercing jewellery, smoking accessories, premium cigars, vapes and all the lifestyle extras you didn’t know you needed — including, yes, a grinder shaped like a spaceship. We’re Southampton’s go-to for all of these — plus a few things your nan definitely wouldn’t put on the mantelpiece! Visit us at 111 East Street or hit us up online.
