Didi Zhao

With more than 21 years of experience, Didi is an accomplished all-round hairdresser who loves creating beautiful, individual looks for both women and men.

A perfectionist by nature, Didi particularly enjoys transformations that require creativity, technical skill and a little bit of a challenge. From precision restyles and colour transformations to balayage, foils, bridal hair and special-event styling, she loves working with clients who want something created especially for them.

For Didi, great hair starts with understanding the person sitting in her chair. If you're not quite sure what you want, she'll take the time to understand your lifestyle, how you manage your hair day-to-day and how you'd like to feel when you look in the mirror.

Her approach is friendly, honest and thoughtful, with a strong focus on recommending what will genuinely suit you.

After more than two decades in hairdressing, Didi says the most rewarding part of her career is seeing the confidence that can come from the right hairstyle. She loves being part of her clients' everyday lives as well as their most important moments and celebrations.

Regular clients return to Didi for everything from cuts and regrowth maintenance to colour refreshes and advice on maintaining healthy hair and scalp.

Didi is also the salon's dedicated perming specialist — a skill that's becoming harder to find locally, with fewer and fewer hairdressers still offering it. If you're after texture or curl through a professional perm, she's the one to see.
