Melanie C.
Love the layered haircut I got for my long hair! Very professional service from the wash to the blow dry. I have tried so many other places in cairns but they just wouldn’t/afraid to cut the disconnected layer in my hair!! Francesco is very skilled and cut my dream hair! So much more volume, movement and easier for me to style a 90s blowout. Francesco Thank you! I strongly recommend this salon.

I went in for a wash and blow dry, I had Tiana look after me and she was sensational. Tiana is very warm and very good at what she does! The salon itself was minimalist chic, I’d definitely go back if I lived in Cairns! Thank you!

Loved my experience. Francesco went above and beyond for my wash and blow dry. My drink order was automatically requested by the Fresha app. I will come back when I visit Cairns again and ask for their signature cocktail, which sounded delicious and refreshing!

Wonderful and Friendly I have been looking for a Salon in Cairns for 12 months and had no success. Then I was lucky enough to find this gem! The team at Cuts by Carella are professional and down to earth. They have extensive experience having worked in larger metropolitan cities. I was so happy with my haircut and blow dry. The whole experience was fabulous. Thank you to the team for the friendly atmosphere and the dedication shown to clients!! Best in Cairns !!!

Grace has amazing knowledge with short hair and curly hair and blonde hair / all of which I have. She gave me a new fresh styled bob. The best cut I’ve had in cairns yet! Can’t wait to return for my colour session!

Had my cut done by Clancy. Told him I wanted to change the style of my hair - to grow it out. He explained each step to the cut, great insight to the style I want to achieve. Overall top customer service and if I’m back in Cairns anytime soon I’ll be sure to book back in with him. 👊🏻

Hello, I'm a mature lady who lives in Tropical North Queensland. Walking around Cairns I observed how shabby and shaggy the average person's lanky, long hair looked. Then horror of all horrors I saw a reflection of myself in a shop window. I was also one of the "shaggiest"! This lead to much researching of the total 40 odd hairdressers in Cairns. I needed an updated style that would show my femininity. I found Lexie at Vault Ninety One. If I moved to Timbuctoo I'd travel back to this truly talented stylist who has made my hair and my life brighter.

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.

I’ve been going to Addie since I moved to Cairns 2 years ago. She is incredibly skilled at figuring out what works for you and what you want as well as delightful to spend time with. She has helped me find a style that I can keep with little effort and has been tweaking my colour to fit the colours I like with my job requirements. Not always a straightforward job.

Marie is an amazing colourist with a wealth of experience, and passion to make your hair shine. After 30 years of having foils I’ve had ALL the experiences (blondes you know what I’m saying) and Marie is the best I’ve come across. Her blonde is fresh, bright, natural, and all without a trace of damage to my aging treated hair. I hesitate to let the secret out, but she is honestly one of Cairns very best colourists. I feel safe and comfortable with my blonde in her hands, you can trust her professionalism and experience to give you the most gorgeous blonde without any of the stress or damage.

Having recently relocated to Cairns I was looking for a new hairdresser and hit the jackpot with Jack. Right from the start he was a great communicator, genuine and I felt like the haircut was very collaborative - it turned out great. Thanks Jack! By the way the fringe looks great when I put my hair up in a pony tail. Thanks for the suggestion.

I am absolutely thrilled to find DJ. After a botched haircut 2 weeks ago l got to the stage that l could not put up with my hair 1 more day. After reading 4 hours of reviews l crossed my fingers and decided to make an appointment with DJ at Suede. It was 1am in the morning when l went to make an appointment. I couldn't believe it when he had an appointment for 4pm that day. It was meant to be. DJ is certainly a professional and knows his stuff. I have now found my new hairdresser in Cairns. I would highly recommend DJ 👌

Absolutely loved my experience at Suede Hair in Cairns! I got a fresh cut and they did an amazing job refreshing my blonde hair after it had gone a little yellow from the sun & swimming during my holiday. The colour looks bright and healthy again. On top of that, I got to hold the most adorable, well-behaved dog while they cut my hair — honestly the best bonus ever 🐶💛 Everything was perfect from start to finish. Friendly, professional, and relaxing. Highly recommend!
