Regardless of if you’re a Lady or a Gent, hair is pretty darn important to most of us! Is it too thin, thick, curly, wavy, balding, fluffy, dry, flaky, breaking, damaged, too long or too short!!!! Ahh! It is exhausting!
Nothing will deflate you quicker, like a toddler who had their balloon popped, then a bad haircut/style! This is a SUPER “Ask RiotACT” post because there are few things we hope you can help us with. Please comment below not only on your favourite Canberra hair salons, but also your favourite hairdresser and why. For example, “Sally from RiotACT hair d’jour was amazing with my dry thin hair. She increased volume and has left me feeling brand new”.
Gents! This includes you too please! We would love to know what barber floats your boat alongside some great tips for beard trims and maybe what actually happens in the chair with a trim and wax?
But please, a shout out to negative nellies, please only post positive comments. If you have a complaint, please raise your concerns directly to the hair salon.
Here are some of our favs, let us know what you think!

*Disclaimer, that is my (article author) hair in the pic. I had been attending Meki Hair Salon for the past two years. Renee, Lauren and Terri have treated me like a goddess! I mean, I adore the iced herbal tea, snacks, conversation, trashy mags and the beautiful décor, but none of it matters as much as the quality of their hairdressing. Two years ago my hair was completely ruined and destroyed, almost 3 quarters of it had fallen out. Lauren in particular nurtured my hair back into the fine giant mop of hair it once was but it was a slow process and the whole team has been lovely and patient.
