I have been a client of Philippe for around 15 years and I love my haircuts. He understands how my hair naturally sits and cuts accordingly. True European cutting skill and a lovely person....highly recommended!

I went for the first time at Philippe Xavier Hairdressers, last saturday to change of hair style. This was a big step for me, therefore, I was looking for a hairdresser that would help me with this big changes and I am so glad I did. I will recommend this hairsalon for his warm welcoming and professional services. My hairdresser understood straight away what I was looking for, (even if it was not so clear in my head! Haha)
I received so many good compliments from my friends and family over the weekend, I will definitely go back to this hairsalon.

I arrived in Sydney via cruise ship. While on-board, I had a very poor colour experience. I walked into Philippe Xavier and was welcomed immediately. Marco explained how to help me achieve the look I wanted and how he would fix my colour. I am beyond thrilled and so grateful for Marco squeezing me in. The salon is located in the Four Seasons hotel which is 8 min walk from the ship. Highly Recommend!!!

Best haircut and colour I ever had! I finally booked my appointment at Philippe Xavier and I could not be happier with the result! I was booked on a very busy Saturday morning. The team was always patient with me and I never felt like I was being rushed. My hair was very damaged and Marco really took the time to listen and advise me to get the best result possible given the damages done from previous colouring. I had my hair lightened, yet it doesnt feel damaged and look so much more healthier. The products used were amazing as well. I got a lot of compliment on my new look and definitely

After traveling 18 hours my hair was so dry and looked so damaged. I walked into this salon by accident but I am so glad I did because my hair feels so much better and looks so much healthier! Marco did my hair and he did an amazing job. Everyone at the salon was very warm and welcoming and so much fun to be around! I left with the biggest smile on my face! Thank you again for taking me in on such short notice
