What does a hairdresser do?

A hairdresser is a person who cuts, colours and styles the hair of an individual so that it enhances their appearance. Hairdressers, also known as hair stylists, are typically employed in a hairdressing salon, though some work as independent contractors from home or providing mobile hairdressing services.

The best hairdressers keep up with hairstyle trends and training, and offer more than just a haircut with services like keratin treatment, and hair extensions. Some hair salons will also offer related beauty services like nail and skincare.

Choosing the best hairdresser

Choosing a hairdresser is a difficult task. To find an outstanding hairdressing salon in Australia (or elsewhere) here’s a few tips:

• Look for one with a renowned reputation for quality by reading online hairdressing reviews.
• Have a friend who’s hair always looks great? Ask them for a referral.
• Visit the hair salon’s Facebook page, people love to share their hairstyles so you’ll see examples of real clients.
• Visit the salon to see if you are comfortable trusting them to your lovely locks!

How much does hairdressing cost?

Prices vary from salon to salon, depending on a hairdresser’s level of experience, the treatment done to the hair, and the hair’s length. For instance, a haircut and blow-dry is typically priced between $50 and $200, whereas hair colouring usually starts from $50 for some highlights to $250 for ombre or balayage colouring by an advanced stylist.
