Outside the shop there is a sign that says "$18 hair cuts". The barber shop is busy and there are 3 different people cutting hair. No receptionist, just two men and a lady who looks like the owner's mother. We are greeted with a big "hello, have a seat, we will right with you". The owner asked me to have a seat and proceeded to cut my hair. Now I've been to a lot of barbers in my day and this guy knew what he was doing. He had a good eye and was able to get it just right. A straight edge razor shave for the neckline, a little bit of styling gel and I was good to go. They also do a traditional hot towel and wet shave. This is so much better than getting your hair cut at the mall for an extra $10 more.

I had a great experience at Joh Bailey Cross St.- I landed in Sydney early on a Saturday from LA…read moreand wasn't able to check into my hotel right away (tragic) so I decided to try to find a place for a blow out- the lovely woman at the hotel pointed me right across the street and although they were really busy, the woman running the desk was so easy to fit me in on a tight afternoon schedule. I showed up at 1:45 for a 2pm appointment that I made only a few hours prior and waited a couple minutes but got in and out wash, dry and style in order to make a 330 lunch. Dare I say it was the BEST blow out I ever had, my stylist was very experienced and I learned about his history as a hair stylist and he paid very close attention to detail, holding the hair tightly as he used the blow dryer in order to minimize frizz. I spent the rest of the day feeling like a goddess thanks to my blow out and some champagne. I would not hesitate to book here as they are so accommodating and the blow outs are reasonably priced and great results.

Most people will visit Hair Essence for a quick trim. They do take card which is a plus in addition to cash and eftpos. When I had my trim here they weren't too gentle on the hair and the hairdressers talked a lot when I just wanted to sit back and relax. Styling is OK too. They generally have good advice also on styling, dying etc. If you are in desperate need of a hairdresser, the good thing is that they are open on Monday's, when almost every other hair dresser in Sydney is closed!

The hair dressers who work there are mainly koreans and they are very friendly. After multiple visits, I had my hair cut by most of them and I only like one of them. The others , I feel, are like trainees. Each hair cut used to cost $30 (student discount), but that had been scrapped and it costs $35 now (without wash). Not too bad. They also offer other services like mani/pedicures.

Studio 500 used to be my go-to local hair salon for a friendly, reliable service. They have four…read moreprice levels for blow-dries; one for short hair, one for medium length, one for long, one for extra long. When I realised this upon paying after my last visit, as I was being charged for the "long hair" price, I asked in what I thought was a polite tone how they classify the various lengths. I'm pretty sure I have what most people would consider short-ish hair - it sits right on my shoulders. Standing at the front counter, apparently my query was audible to the rest of the staff. Two senior stylists turned around immediately to state that the short hair price applied only to very short hair, "like a pixie cut" (as though I was demanding to be charged the short hair price, which I wasn't.) I didn't bother splitting hairs over what constituted "mid-length". Considering the difference in price being debated was only a few dollars, I just wanted to escape the hair police. I left, thinking, surely that amount of money is not worth arguing about with a repeat customer who's spent a small fortune at your business over the years. I now get blow-dries at a salon in Chatswood where hair length is more simply categorised into short and long options.

She listens to what the client wants and at the same time gives helpful advice. Some hairdressers are inclined to treat their clients as though they all have the same type of hair. Katrina understood what kind of hair I have and therefore could deal with it appropriately. I had many compliments about my hair after my last visit and was happy to answer the question as to which hairdresser I had visited and also to name Katrina as someone I would recommend. Jan Myers
