I never saw the value in having a regular spot when it comes to getting my hair cut but in the two years I have been coming here Sophia has done an incredible job, always understanding exactly what I was after and doing what is best for my hair and texture etc. I can safely say my hair has never been so healthy. The staff are so friendly and professional. Always recommend my friends to come here

My experience today at The Source Hairdressing was incredible. Sophia and her team went above and beyond to create the most relaxing and soul renewing journey one could hope for. I loved the sensory journey, cup of herbal tea and small gift at the end - small things like that go a long way. I had the wonderful Sophia as my hairstylist who I think did an excellent job - she listened to what I wanted but also entwined that with her own knowledge and wisdom on hair. The help of the whole Source team was incredible and I definitely felt looked after the whole time I was there. Thank you so much! I

It's not often that you find exceptional customer service , where you truly feel valued and looked after. The Source is a beautiful salon with friendly and professional staff who really know what they are doing. I am pretty fussy with my hair and without fail I am always pleased with my cut, colour & style . They also treat you to a little neck and shoulder massage , what more could you want ! Thank you Sophia and the team

Took my teenage daughter to Source hoping they could fix the damage done by a previous hairdresser. Not only did they fix her hair, they made her look absolutely beautiful. We felt so welcomed & comfortable from the minute we walked in. The salon manager & our hairdresser, Tara, were very friendly, professional & knowledgeable. They took the time to explain everything to us as well as providing options. My daughter was treated like she was the most important person there & I couldnt ask for more. We were so happy to find a salon that uses plant based products that are animal cruelty free

Sophia is brilliant! I have curly/wavy hair and it's hard to find a good hairdresser, but Sophia cut it perfectly and offered great advice. It's especially hard to find a great stylist who cares about what's in their products. I love that the salon is focussed on sustainability and uses natural, plant-based products. Book in, as soon as you walk into this place you feel cared for!

I have always struggled to find a hairdresser who can deal with my curly hair... and then I found The Source. I cannot recommend this salon highly enough. From the moment I walk in, I am treated with such respect and care from all the staff. The products too are amazing and all eco friendly. Thank you Sophia and the team for creating the most wonderful hair experience!
