Hair has no gender was born from the desire to change the landscape of hairdressing by working with models from the LGBTQIA+, Transgender & Non-Binary communities to raise awareness, have conversations & create more visibility for these individuals.
I was also inspired to create a safe space in my salon for all beings, inspired by my ever-growing clientele’s needs to feel safe, heard, understood and accepted no matter who they are.
The hairdressing industry is slowly shifting, much like fashion. In a true celebration of diversity, many of my models were employed by Melbourne Fashion Week.
Gender is one of the most talked about topics of 2022 and I believe the time is NOW to create a movement and advocate for change. There is room for everyone in this world, no matter who they are.
My wish is that our industry & our community moves away from the terms male & female. Moving towards gender neutral pricing, while introducing ourselves with our pronouns to create a safe space for all humans.
On the 9th of May 2022, Inner West’s FAVOURITE new hair salon were deemed 3x finalists for Apprentice of the year, New Creative Force & the HOT SHOTS category. This is one of the winning collections featured that we’d like to showcase & spread the message across the wild west!
