How to choose a hairdresser in Wollongong
Wollongong is full of talent. Use this checklist so you book skill — not just a pretty Instagram grid.
1. Read recent reviews for your service
Balayage reviews matter more than generic “nice staff” if you’re booking colour.
2. Check specialisation
Curl specialists, blonding-focused colourists and bridal stylists are different crafts.
3. Demand pricing clarity
“From” prices should connect to length and density. Deposits should be shown before payment.
4. Booking policy fairness
Under Australian Consumer Law, cancellation fees must be reasonable and disclosed. Avoid salons that hide no-show rules until after you’re charged.
5. Aftercare culture
Great salons teach you how to look after the work — and stock products that match.
