Hair salons in Wollongong, at a glance

Most salons will cut and colour anyone's hair. The differences that matter are which hair types they see most, how long they allow per appointment, and whether they will tell you honestly when what you want is not achievable in one sitting.

What to look for

  • Look at what the salon is actually known for. A colour-led salon and a cutting-led salon are different businesses.
  • For a big change, look for somewhere that offers a consultation before the appointment rather than at the start of it.
  • Check how much upkeep the result needs before you commit to it.
  • Long, thick or curly hair often carries a surcharge. Better salons say so upfront.

Common questions

How far ahead should I book?
A cut is usually available within a week or two. Colour with a specific colourist often runs three to six weeks ahead, and correction work longer again. If you have an event, book the appointment before you book anything else.
Should I go to the most expensive salon I can afford?
Not automatically. Price mostly reflects location, appointment length and seniority. A mid-priced salon that specialises in exactly your hair type will usually beat an expensive generalist.
