Haircuts & Styling – What Can I Expect?

A great haircut is about much more than taking off length. It’s about creating a style that suits your face shape, hair texture, lifestyle and the way you like to wear your hair every day.

At The Cutting Room, every haircut begins with a personalised consultation. We’ll listen to what you love, what frustrates you about your current hair and how much time you like to spend styling it. From there, we’ll recommend a cut that works with your hair—not against it.

Whether you’re ready for a complete transformation, maintaining your signature style or simply looking for a fresh update, our experienced stylists create beautiful, wearable hair that’s easy to manage long after you leave the salon.

Please note: All services are available to clients aged 16 and over only.

Testimonials

These guys are the short hair specialists! I wouldn’t go anywhere else to get my hair cut. I know that I’m going to get a great funky cut every time. They know my hair type and how to cut it so that I can just get up and go every day without hours of styling. Have been coming here for 19 years and have never been let down once.

Going into The Cutting Room is like sitting down and chatting with friends while being pampered. The place is full of laughs and a positive vibe with a professional and knowledgeable edge that is hard to find.

Today was my first time at The Cutting Room. I recently moved here from overseas and finding a good hairdresser you can trust is hard. I booked here from a recommendation and I am super glad I did.

My stylist was Amie. She was friendly and made me feel super welcome, she talked me through the service and made sure I was happy before we moved on. Every part of the service was amazing and I am so happy with my cut. I have booked to go back in 6 weeks.
