We believe that beautiful hair has to be healthy so we found the world's most luxurious environmentally friendly hair care products & color ranges to ensure optimum condition for your hair.Beautiful hair requires talented hairdressers that are passionate, experienced but most importantly great at listening and communicating.
Services
Most of our products are sustainable, from 100% clean electric energy with renewable sources leaving a zero impact policy. Olaplex is a bond multiplier containing a single active ingredient, Bis-Aminopropyl Diglycol Dimaleate. Olaplex works by finding single sulfur hydrogen bonds and cross linking them back together to form disulfide bonds before, during and after services.

I'm sad it's taken me this long to leave a review.
I've been frequenting Slinky since around 2014 and even after moving out of the area I still make the trip back for my hair appointments.
A wonderful highly skilled team who compliment each other very well & are so very welcoming. Fantastic service, I honestly wouldn't go anywhere else. Thank you so much Slinky. The pleasure is always mine!

Kon and Gina are the OG hairdressers/barbers and you can see why! They're super friendly and know what they're talking about. They adhere to your needs but give you the right advice too, l amongst a relaxing atmosphere. I've been coming here for a few years now and Gina has not just been the best hairdresser but a nice friend. It is a bit expensive but totally worth it!

Gina is amazing! She managed to keep the length on my long and VERY dead hair, while still making it incredibly healthy. She's basically a magician. Thank you Gina!

Gina gave me the haircut/style I didn’t know I needed. Within an hour she worked her magic and transformed months of lockdown hair and gave me one of the best haircuts I’ve had in my life. Friendly, precise and skilled, I highly recommend Slinky and Gina’s services, you won’t regret it! 💯

I have been coming to Slinky for years. Kon is the only person who can style my unruly hair, just the way I like it. A lovely salon. Always great music.

Thank you to the team at Slinky! I underwent a massive transformation and braved a pixie cut with the beautiful Gina, who went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and happy each step of the way and she smiled the entire time! I was then left in the capable hands of Kon for my colour and styling and left feeling a million bucks.… Extremely impressed with the dedication from each of them to ensure I was satisfied and involved in the process and I left with the biggest smile on my face. My hair looks amazing and it's exactly what I wanted. Top class salon (and I've been to a few

I'm new to Melbourne so firstly finding a hair salon for the first time can be very over whelming that is until I found Slinky Hairdressing. Jaimee worked her magic & created a beautiful balayage & styled my hair perfectly. Everyone in the salon is so friendly & down to earth would highly recommend & will most definitely be back. 10/10.

Just got a haircut today with Gina today, and I’m so glad I did!
I’d been putting off cutting my hair for nearly 2 years, so I was a little nervous about finding a new hairstylist and trying to explain the style that I wanted.
Gina was so thorough - she showed me some pictures to make sure of the shape and texture that I wanted, and the outcome was 100% exactly what I had hoped for. It is the first haircut that I’ve ever gotten that hit all the marks.
The rest of the staff there was really friendly and everyone walking out seemed super happy with their service as well.
Highly, highly

Gina did an amazing job with my haircut! She was so friendly and actually listened to my needs without rushing the whole process of cutting and styling. The interior is calm and relaxing and i especially like how it doesn't feel at all pretentious.

Great cut from a responsive stylist who discussed, advised, and adjusted the style to make sure I got what I wanted, and it looked good. Great service, with a booking made quickly and with a minimum of fuss, ran on time and provided tea when I arrived early. Just great. :)
