As a former beauty editor of this very magazine, and firm believer in the quality of your life being dictated by the quality of your hair, it won’t come as any surprise that I’m a tough crowd when it comes to wholeheartedly placing my trust in a hairdresser. But I wasn’t left with much choice upon running down Sydney Road in Brunswick whilst hyperventilating into a brown paper bag in search of a hairdresser who could tame my tresses prior to a television debut. Enter Sara Jade Hairdressing. It was a decision I wasn’t to regret.
Of course, in the midst of said crisis I had my friends on speed dial who all reassured me that Audrey Hepburn was on my side. Not only did Sara have images of Audrey throughout her stylish and glamourous salon draped with chandeliers and damask wallpaper, she immediately made me feel at ease by organising me a vintage inspired designer dress from Rubie Patootie, a professional make up artist and a glass of wine with the click of her fingers. Needless to say when she proceeded to place a book entitled, ‘What Would Audrey Do Now’ in front of me, I knew my prayers for hair nirvana had been answered and that I was in good hands.
Her expertise combined with an uncanny intuition for exactly what I wanted not only transformed my unruly tresses to those worthy of prime television, but also left me bouncing out of her beautiful salon with a smile on my face and feeling good within and outside of myself – a rare skill indeed. It’s for this very reason that I placed the future of my hair in her capable hands, and since she’s been lovingly tending to my locks my hair has never looked better. For what Sara doesn’t know about hair isn’t worth knowing.
The same determination that saw her walk again post an accident that left her in a wheelchair is the same determination that has seen her scale the heights of the hairdressing industry. Combine this with her undoubted expertise, unbridled passion for hair, meticulous attention to detail and commitment to the customer experience, and it’s no surprise that she’s not only running her own salon but was also selected to work at Melbourne Fashion Week.
With over 15 years experience within the hair and beauty industry, having worked and trained with some of the most talented hairdressers in the world, Sara Jade can offer you expert hairdressing along with professional beauty and makeup services.
