Kogan People Solutions

You know that moment when a client looks in the mirror after you’ve finished, their shoulders drop, and they go, That’ss exactly what I needed.? That little spark of confidence you just handed them – it never gets old. In Macquarie, where people come from all over Canberra for work, uni, shopping, or just a break, a really good hairdresser becomes part of their routine. They book months ahead because they trust you with their colour, their cut, their whole vibe. Right now, Kogan People Solutions is helping a multi-award-winning salon find its next full-time Hairdresser/Stylist. This isn’t a chain gig with rigid colour charts and quotas. It’s a busy, independent business that’s earned its reputation by consistently delivering excellent cuts, colour, styling, chemical treatment,s and genuine care – and they want someone who gets that.

What the Salon Is Looking For

They already have a strong reputation to protect, so they need someone who matches that standard from day one.

You’ll fit right in if you:

Hold a Certificate III in Hairdressing (or higher) and have 3+ years of post-qualification experience
Are confident across cuts, finishes, highlights, balayage, foils, colour corrections, keratin treatments, extensions, ns, and styling
Love working with men, women, and children – you can read different clients and adjust your approach.oach
Take pride in a spotless, sterile workstation and follow WHS rules without being rem.ind ed
Present yourself professionally – clean, neat, approachable
Communicate clearly and warmly – clients feel heard and valued
Are honest, rereliableiable and genuinely passionate about hair
Have full, unrestricted Australian working rights

You don’t need to be the loudest person in the room. They value quiet confidentechnical skillnkill and the ability to make every client feel like they’re your only one that day.

What a Week Looks Like

The salon runs six days a week, so your schedule will cover a mix of peak and quieter times.

You’ll spend your days:

Greeting clients, listening carefully to what th ey want and suggesting styles that suit them
Performing precision cuts, finishes, b,lblow-driesw-dries and styling
Delivering high-end colour services – from full heads to subtle highlights and root smudges
Applying chemical treatments (straightening, smoothing, perms) safely and effectively
Offering scalp treatments, co,conditioningitioning and after-care advice
Keeping your station immaculate – sterilising tools, sweeping hair, wiping down surfaces
Building and maintaining your own client book through great service and genuine recommendations
Helping juniors when needed – sharing tips, giving feedback, keeping the vibe positive

You’ll see the same faces regularly, which means you get to know their hair history, their preferences, even their kids’ names. That repeat business is what keeps chairs full and morale high.

Why This Hairdresser / Stylist Role Stands Out

Macquarie is one of Canberra’s busiest shopping hubs – plenty of foot traffic, easy parking, and a real community feel. The salon has won small business awards and built strong online reviews because they never cut corners on service or quality.

Here is what you actually gain:

Salary range of $75,000–$80,000 pa + superannuation (negotiable based on your book and skill level)
Permanent full-time position with regular hours
Working in a highly respected, award-winning independent salon
Access to ongoing training – they invest in keeping the team current with trends and techniques
A supportive, talented team that actually enjoys working together
The chance to grow a strong personal clientele in a high-traffic location
The satisfaction of being part of a business that genuinely cares about its reputation
Living in Canberra – great lifestyle, four seasons, easy access to nature and the city

Many stylists stay long-term in salons like this because the pay is fair, the team is solid, and the clients are loyal. You get to do what you love without the corporate pressure or unrealistic targets.
