Em. That stands for Mandy. Mandy knows hair, seriously. I…read morehave never been able to stick to a hairdresser, mostly because I am never really impressed with their work. I was in desperate need of a cut, i had a bad cut and the got another elsewhere to fix it. I returned to the second because the cut was crooked. It still looked ridiculous so I just wore my hair up for a week. One rainy day while driving home I remembered Em. The traffic was really bad so I was able to grab their phone number off the window while stuck in a jam. I called and they had a spot then and there. It must have been fate! Mandy touches your hair and knows how to cut it. She is a hair magician. She costs more than some other places but it is money well spent.

Snip snip, chop chop. It can be a scary noise when you're in the company of a hairdresser who…read moredoesn't know what their doing. But at Aria, which I found out about through a friend's recommendation, I decided to give it a shot. This Japanese hair salon is in the CBD and keeps their clients happy and their hairdressers relatively busy. I've now been there twice: each visit with a different hairdresser and have come out a happy camper. The second time around, I knew I could just pick up one of the magazines and point at it and let the stylist know what I was looking for. Taka, who is a manager stylist and unfortunately has moved up to Brisbane, takes great care when snipping away. You're definitely safer off with a manager stylist, which is worth the extra cost as the prices there are rather wallet-friendly. Customer service there is fantastic! It probably has a lot to do with the (Japanese) culture but from the point of entering ("Konichiwa!!") until when they see you off at the door, they're there mindfully doing their job well. Also, they've got promos like "happy hour" where it's 20% off M-F before noon and others that are released through their newsletters, as well as others like friend referrals. I highly recommend Aria salon if you're looking to get a good haircut, at great value, and fabulous service!

Annie and her team are always soooo gentle, generous and really professional. Which is what you want in any beauty services.

Smooth offers high level skin management techniques and all the normal waxing, colouring and massages. I love the interior with it's original Carrey Smith artworks.

In…read morethe last year that I have rediscovered The Village I have had the privilege of meeting several of the staff, all of whom were welcoming, listened and seemed to love their jobs. The owner Penny is friendly and clearly has a good rapport and high level of respect with both staff and clients. Today I was fortunate enough to have Crispin so my hair. Crispin took the like to listen carefully to what I wanted, he was thorough and went above and beyond to make sure I walked out happy. Not only are the staff welcoming, their work outstanding but the salon charges affordable prices. I paid $160 for half a head of foils and a trim. This is seemingly unbelievable in this day and age where it's unusual to pay less that $200! Great little salon, highly recommend!

The owners Leigh and Dabien are the sweetest people ever and make every trip an asbolute scream. All the hairdressers are super lovely and you get a 5 star feeling when you go in for your treatment.

My sister now goes here too and loves Ellie. And we used them all for both of our weddings and everybody commented on our hair. I reccomend this place until the cows come home.

I made an appt. with Medusa not knowing much about them, with the exception of the few positive ratings I read online.

Stephanie was lovely, the service was exceptional, prices reasonable, and most importantly, my hair looks awesome. My experience at Medusa Hair Studio was definitely a pleasant surprise! I will definitely be going back.

Love this hairdresser! I have been this one in the city, the valley (now closed) and Chermside…read more If your like most women, you probably dread the hairdressers. Will they stuff up my hair? Will it be too short? Will my hair fall out/break? However I always feel safe giving my hair to the staff at Oscar Oscar. They all have years experience at one of the best salons in Australia. Perfect haircuts. Every time. They give you a beautiful head massage with cuts, and if you get colour, also a hand massage. I have been coming here since I was a teen. Beautiful, clean, modern salon. Two levels, large mirrors, the lighting isn't that flattering but they need to see your hair colour properly. Never had a bad experience. The basins are fairly comfy for basins. I like the chairs they have at the mirrors - comfy. Though your butt can get numb if you're there for a colour and cut and have long hair but that's to be expected. With plenty of mags, and an assortment of beverages and biscuits. Now lets not tip toe around the mulberry bush - this is a very expensive salon. Haircuts start at $100 for women and $80 for men - and this is for a stylist. Yes, as you go up experience the price increases all the way to a master stylist at $140 for women and $120 for men. The only thing that does get my goat is when you pay over $100 for a a haircut and the hairdresser doesn't blow-dry or straighten/curl it, an apprentice does. They do a good job, but still. They use Adveda products that smell amazing. Soft product push - just tell them you have enough at home or a no thanks. The staff are mostly friendly, though some aloof and might I say stuck up. That doesn't really matter to me though. A perfect haircut with clean lines, no mistakes and beautifully blended foils.

First off, the prices here are RIDICULOUS. I spent $500 for some foils essentially…read more Secondly, the hairdresser basically felt she knew better than me. I said I wanted to go blonde but didn't want to fry my hair TOO much. Her response to this was that all bleach treatments are damaging and instead gave me some highlights? Which wasn't what I want. It additionally took RIDICULOUSLY long to get it done. I was waiting almost 5-6 hours for the whole thing I reckon. Then their Eftpos machine wasn't working with my card so they took down my details and proceeded to call me everyday to hassle me about the money like I was some sort of criminal? I eventually got the money to them but not without significant stress on my behalf! You'll never see me there again, that's all I know.

The second time while I waited for my coffee was treated to a head massage. Being new to the area was given many suggestions on restaurants and bars in the area. It's hard to find a new hairdresser after a move and this was my 4th one. The salon is small and do very personable. Maddy my stylist and I are stilling getting to know each other, but are heading in the right direction of meeting my very basic hair needs. David Murray is lovely and is very lucky to have selected such a wonderful team. It's probably on the pricier side being more expensive than my hairdresser in NYC but I'm willing to overlook that for a good haircut.

I'll confess something to you, fellow yelpers. I am terrible at hair salon relationships. I'm…read moreterrible at maintaining them, I rarely see a hair dresser twice and I'm notorious for getting cold feet and have huge trust issues. That is, until I was recommended David Murry Salon. Without leaning towards sounding too much like a Danoz Direct advertisement, my experience with DMS has made me trust again. I think we'll go steady. As well as being a master of his craft the thing I look forward to most when visiting David is the head massage - it is the best I have ever had. I know I'm not alone with this being a crucial elements of the hairdresser relationship. I'd go as far to say a bad head massage would be a deal breaker. This, combined with the unique in-salon experience David prides himself on creating for clients makes DMS the hottest new kid on the hair salon block. You share a great hairdresser with trepidation because, like an only child, you fear sharing him with others. This is how I feel about David and his fabulous team. They're so good I want to keep them all to myself. Just as Napoelon Perdis says it is a crime not to prime, I know to spend one's life searching for the perfect hair stylist would be a similarly heinous crime. So fellow Brisbane-ites, chop chop and visit DMS. Just leave a few appointment slots for me!
