I was worried about getting balayage, I've seen pictures of how it can look pretty bad. My hair looks fantastic!! I was feeling so cute, I had to go out to show it off 😆 They did an amazing job and the… hairdresser guided me away from the colours I was looking at and suggested a colour that ended up being exactly what I wanted. Will definitely be going back!

Lauren is amazing, Ive been getting my hair done by her for over 10 years. After moving to the Gold Coast 3 years ago and having failure after failure finding a good hairdresser, I now just fly back down to see Lauren, never disappointed and always exceeds my expectations, cant recommend her enough!

I recently went to the Society for hair and I will not return. I was overall pleased with the look of my hair but I was overcharged without being told what I was paying for. I went in asking for a balayage which should have been around $150 (from the website) and was charged $290! I am a uni student living alone so I do not have this much money to waste on hair. Over the 3 hour period I got foils, toner ( which I was never told that it cost extra), blow dry and curls that fell out a couple of hours later ( which again was not told was extra with Ill just put some curls in). The whole experience

I went here to get my hair regrowth colour matched and a haircut. When I called to book I told them I had curly hair and wanted colour match for my roots. They assured me that this could easily be done. How wrong they were! My hair looked grey when I specifically asked over the phone and on the day for not ash blonde, and I sat and started to cry as the hairdresser was pulling my curly hair to dry it. They said they would put another toner in it ( which I was charged for) . The haircut was literally her trimming a couple of the ends even when I asked for the weight to be cut out and a bang to be
