Contrasts is a small, suburban hair salon in The Grange. I've always had a soft spot for Contrasts…read morebecause I walk past here nearly every day and they always have cute little messages on their A-frame blackboard sign out the front. It says things like '3 haircuts til Xmas'. Despite walking past so often and always thinking the atmosphere in there looked very welcoming and admiring their relatively late opening hours (for The Grange, anyway) I hadn't actually ever been inside until last year when I needed a last minute wash and blow-dry before a wedding. When I did finally go to Contrasts, I found the atmosphere and staff to be just as friendly and welcoming as they seemed from the outside. The prices were very reasonable and I was very happy with the service both in terms of the staff and the result I got. I always appreciate places that make an effort to fit you in at short notice and Conrasts gets full marks in that department. I still walk past often, enjoy their blackboard messages, and now I know that when I need some hair-love at short notice, Contrasts is ideal.

My hair had been getting ridiculously long for my standards, popped in on a Sunday…read more My first barber (I wasn't able to remember his name) wanted to try a different style on me compared to what I wanted, and it looked great. He was super kind, and professional. I was charged $40 due to it being a Sunday. He said that because he was trying something different on me, if I didn't like it and wanted it a bit shorter, I could come back within 48 hours and get it cut again at no extra charge. I thought was a great policy, I didn't think I would need to use it but my sister wanted my hair shorter for the Summer so I went back the next day after work and saw another man called Gio. Gio did an awesome job, shaved my sides down and got it a lot shorter like my sister wanted, it looked awesome as well as the first haircut. Gio did 10/10 job on the second haircut, attention to detail was perfect. Even put some wax in my hair and a hot towel for my face. Definitely coming back here.

BEN Scissorhands is a new haidresser in the Kelvin Grove Urban Village. Located in the heart of…read morethe QUT Kelvin Grove university campus, Ben's pricing caters well for students, with men's haircuts starting at $20. He also does women's haircuts/washes/foils etc, although I'm unsure of the pricing. From the outside, there is not much to be seen apart from some simple (and clever!) signage on the windows, however stepping inside, you'll find a very comfortable area that I believe was put together by Ben himself! Comfortable hairdressing chairs to sit in, and for those of you having a wash, Ben's wash basin is super comfortable too, supporting your head well and keeping pressure off your neck, which can be uncomfortable. Ben is super friendly, and very knowledgeable in all things hair related. You can show him photos of what you'd like, or explain it to him, and he will read your hair "qualities" and tell you if he thinks it would look good on you. I've had two completely differently styled haircuts from him, both excellent!

Everton Park Hair and Beauty is nestled in along South Pine Road, just next to Everton Plaza…read more The shop itself is very well presented and the girls are very friendly. I went to them when my hair was in dire straights and they worked something out for me and restored it to its former glory. Prices however, are quite expensive, but seem to be industry standard for hair cuts/colours in premium salons. They combine hair and beauty services to try and offer as much as possible in one place so you don't have to shop around. They also sell makeup and offer tanning services, which they advertise on Facebook. Although they don't have a website, you can find them on Facebook for more details about their services.

Visited this salon to have a haircut and lash extensions done partly because a friend goes there…read moreand was looking for a new stylist. The colour was OK but haircut seemed rushed and it was a very strange way she cut it. I have chin length curly hair and she basically pulled it all up to the top to cut it and there was virtually nothing else done except the cutting of a side fringe. I said I'd never had it cut like that before but the stylist went onto say that not many hairdressers know how to cut curly hair. Unfortunately she was one of them! The lashes were terrible. I have had them done at other places and knew good ones from bad. These were clumpy at the base and because of this they became tangled within a week. They were cheaper than other lash places I have been to but the quality wasn't there either. I will not be going back and would not personally recommend this salon.

I'm pretty sure it dates back to when I was a child, a hair dresser decided my also curly haired sister and I needed side burns. Yes side burns. On little girls. Screw you 80's. Anyway, long term scarring aside, I find it difficult to trust again so I was pretty cautious when I first visited Crow Hair on the recommendation of a friend. To start with the space and the staff are gorgeous. Hilarious owner (who is great at hair if you can get in to his busy schedule) and delightful girls who all seem to be stylish and talented and good at making frumps like me feel good. They are also very complimentary of my curl and never mention the tide mark of old colour invariably found in my locks, which is super polite of them. I walked out with straight hair (free, done as a challenge by the owner and probably not my best look - I looked like the love child of a real estate agent and a news anchor) but when I wet my hair I was relieved to see a really sensitive cut that kept my length but lifted weight off so my curl had a chance to, well, curl. Lots of great advice (I had no idea permanent colours contributed to breakage) and the prices are VERY reasonable compared to city salons. I'll go back within a much more sensible time frame I promise.

I went in on Wednesday and they were able to fit me in for an hour later for a cut. All the seats seem to always be full though so I think I was just lucky. The price was fantastic and way less than I was expecting. My only problem is that my haircut is so good that now I am TOO cute and it's affecting my life because I have too much self confidence now so I think maybe next time I'm going to ask for something uglier. Thanks crowhair you are the best and I will be back in 8 weeks for me re-cute-ification.
