This isn’t just another hair appointment. It’s the start of your curl confidence era.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW.

  • Think about what you want to get out of your appointment. Are you coming in for a refresh? A new shape? A colour change? A big transformation?

    Having a clear goal in mind helps guide your consultation and ensures we create something that truly fits your vision.

  • Please arrive with your hair in its natural curl state, dry and detangled if possible. Product is fine, but avoid heavy oils- especially coconut oil as these can affect your service.


    We need to see your curls just as they are to personalise your cut or treatment properly.

  • Appointments take around 2.5 to 3 hours, depending on the service. We’ll start with a consultation, then move into your tailored cut, treatment or colour.


    Your experience will include styling, product education and personalised recommendations to support your curl journey at home.

  • Have a vision? Bring photos, screenshots, or saved looks.
    We’ll work with you to adapt the style to your curl pattern, face shape and lifestyle.

  • We’re about a 10-minute walk from both Redfern and Central Station.
    There is street parking nearby, but most spots are 1-hour limited and can be tricky to find. If you're driving, please arrive early or take public transport for ease.

  • Deposits are non-refundable but fully transferable when rescheduled at least 48 hours in advance.


    Reschedules within 48 hours will result in the loss of your deposit. You can reschedule using your confirmation email or by contacting us directly.

  • We’re a boutique salon with an intimate setup, designed to create a calm and focused experience for each client. Please be mindful of how many people you bring with you, as space is limited.

  • You're in safe hands. Whether you're returning to your natural texture or exploring your curl potential for the first time, this is a space where your hair is understood, celebrated and cared for no stress, no pressure.
