I would like to share that Norman's Hair & Makeup is far superior to all other hairdressers that I have experienced in Cairns and Australia. There is nothing more satisfying than knowing your hair will be amazing each and every time you visit Norman's, I could not speak more highly of Norman and his outstanding staff Lilly & Josh. I let Norman choose my hair colors and hair cutting style, as I know he has an excellent eye for what suits your look and makes you look and feel like a million dollars. One very happy return customer Michele Bults

Merrilyn is the best hair dresser in Cairns. I have been going to Merrilyn since before 2015. Occasionally I branched out to try other hairdressers yet none can compare. The cuts I have had (short hair) always keeping growing into a suitable style until a return is necessary. Marilyn is definitely a professional which shows in all aspects of her business. Merrilyn salon is of an excellent standard. It is a very relaxed atmosphere with lots of laughing. A joy to visit. The costs for services are very reasonable and affordable.

After suffering an epic fail at Hair Warehouse who ruined my hair I was already nervous about going and trusting the process. Honestly- I loved it! After a professional keratin performed by educated hairdressers I left the salon with Amazing hair! From the moment I walked in I felt like part of the family, I had a great laugh and am literally amazed just how well the professional keratin worked. My hair was Super tacky and I wasn't even able to dry or touch it, to walking out in cloud nine with model hair. Thankyou beautiful humans ❤️

Blow Dry FAQs
A blow dry is a hair drying method that uses a handheld hair dryer to accelerate water evaporation from the wet strands of your hair’s surface. It’s often used to style hair. You can blow dry your hair at home, but nothing quite beats a professional salon blow dry.
Wait until your hair is at least 80% dry before you start blow drying it, and prep it first with a heat protectant. Use a volumising heat protectant if your hair is fine, a smoothing one if your hair’s prone to frizzing, and a leave-in conditioner if your hair is curly. You should also untangle any knots and section off your hair with clips before you begin your blow dry.
We wouldn’t recommend it. Heat is damaging to hair, so daily use of a heated styling tool like a hair dryer is likely to strip your hair’s natural oils, dry the cuticle and cause frizz and breakage.
Cost depends on the salon you choose and your stylist's level of experience, but in Cairns you're likely to pay between $15 and $110.
The time it takes to blow dry hair depends on its length, type, texture and the style you want to achieve. If you have short hair, it can be blow-dried in about 5-10 minutes; longer hair takes around 15-30 minutes.
Ideally. Unless your stylist is doing it for you. Oily hair can flatten hair, so it’s best to have a blow dry after your hair’s been freshly washed.
