Salon HER is incredibly proud to share that we have officially been named Most Outstanding Hairdresser at the Local Business Awards 2026 - our second win after also taking home the title in 2024.
For our team, this recognition means so much more than an award. It reflects the community, culture and experience we have worked hard to build inside our Darlinghurst salon from day one.
The Home Of Transformative Hair
At Salon HER, we have always believed that beautiful hair is about more than just the end result.
It is about how you feel walking through the door, the trust you build with your colourist, the conversations shared over coffee, the music playing in the background and the confidence you carry with you when you leave.
From soft lived-in blondes and dimensional brunettes to transformative colour corrections and healthy hair journeys, our focus has always been creating hair that feels personal, wearable and completely you.
Being recognised again as one of Sydney’s leading hair salons is an honour that reflects the passion and care Team HER brings to every appointment.
A Different Kind Of Luxury Hair Salon Experience
Salon HER was created to redefine what luxury in hairdressing could look and feel like.
Warm instead of intimidating.
Grounded instead of pretentious.
Transformative while still deeply personal.
Located in the heart of Darlinghurst, Salon HER has become known for its low-key luxe approach to hair, specialising in:
- Transformative hair colour
- Lived-in blondes
- Luxury brunette colouring
- Balayage and dimensional colour
- Corrective colour work
- Precision cutting
- Healthy hair transformations
- Hair extensions
- Luxury hair treatments
Every appointment begins with a considered consultation because we believe the best hair comes from understanding not only your goals, but your lifestyle, maintenance preferences and hair history too.
