Pros

  • Stylists give good recommendations based on hair types
  • Accommodates clients for treatments even without an appointment

Cons

  • Website lacks information
  • Overpriced

The hairstylists at Ido Hair Brisbane know what they’re doing, and they don’t hesitate to give advice to the clients before they start with the haircut or treatment. This is something you can appreciate because you’ll be given several options that suit you.

One thing you’ll love about the salon is that the stylists are very thorough with the details you want. From there, they’ll tell you if it suits you, and if not, they’ll suggest another color or cut that suits you better.

Some salon stylists simply offer you expensive treatments or what’s currently popular, not minding the fact that it might not suit your taste or your features. Ido Hair makes sure it has those aspects covered before they begin styling you.

Another thing you’ll appreciate about the salon is that it’s able to accommodate clients for treatments even without an appointment. For someone whose schedules are irregular, this is an advantage.

One thing we’ve seen the salon can improve though is their website. Since some clients want to do research first, a website with complete information and a complete list of services will be very helpful. 

Some services are also quite overpriced, which might turn you off. However, the salon uses products from trusted brands, hence, it has to up the price of these services.

Pros

  • Easy to book using any channel available
  • Stylists work fast but with precision

Cons

  • Website needs to be translated to English
  • By appointment only

Aside from the great service, #LULUNANA is known for being so accommodating to customers. The salon seems to have adapted the Korean culture of making sure to value the customers’ time and effort, hence, it’s very customer-centered.

One of the salon’s strict rules is that it only accepts customers with appointments because some treatments last the whole day and there might be no available stylists. Still, the salon tries to squeeze in customers if it can do so.

It’s easy to set an appointment with #LULULANA though because the staff responds in all channels available. This is probably the reason why they’re always fully booked in a day. 

One thing you’ll probably appreciate is that the stylists work fast and with precision. So you can expect a no-nonsense salon visit – they’ll immediately set to work so as not to waste your time.

You’ll also appreciate the cute and vibrant interior design of the salon. It adds to the warmth of the place, making it feel more welcoming.

One thing to note though is that you might need to call the salon for the complete list of services. Their website’s in Korean; and while it can easily be translated using Google, the accuracy isn’t that high and might cause misinformation.

Pros

  • Highly experienced hairdressers
  • Cheap price for a quality service

Cons

  • Difficult to accommodate changes in appointment type
  • Price via phone might not be the final price

If you ask customers what they love most about GMB Hair Korea, it’s their highly experienced hair stylists. They can do almost any type of haircut and styling, and can also administer hair treatment flawlessly.

The stylists are the reasons why some of their customers follow the salon wherever it goes. It has transferred location a few times, and the customers still go to the salon regardless of the distance.

You’ll probably also be surprised by how reasonable the prices are. For a salon with such competent hairdressers and excellent customer service, you’ll think the prices will be higher than most.

Another thing you’ll appreciate is how the hair stylists give you advice on how to maintain your new hairstyle. The best thing about it is that they don’t give advice that requires expensive products, it’s more on how you can style them without spending.

One problem we’ve seen about GMB Hair Korea is that sometimes it’s difficult to change the appointment type. If you change your mind and decide you want a perm instead of a rebond, you’ll have to cancel your appointment and book again.

This will get you scheduled on a later date. And if you already have other appointments you can’t cancel, then this will be bothersome on your part.

If you booked via phone, you might also need to clarify if it’s the final price. Some customers get surprised that there are extra fees when they pay after their appointment, which can be a bit of an inconvenience.

Pros

  • Accommodates customers on the exact appointment time
  • Available seven days a week

Cons

  • Misleading discount signs
  • Closes earlier than what’s indicated on the business hours

Bon Hair is famous for its meticulous appointment time. If you’re scheduled at a particular time, you can’t be late or else the salon might accommodate other clients, and you’ll get delayed more.

The hair stylists and even the receptionist are always on time. The salon doesn’t like it if their staff keep customers waiting, which you’ll appreciate if you have a tight schedule to follow. 

You’ll also appreciate that the salon is available for seven days a week. Even if you’re only available on Sundays, you can still set an appointment.

The salon accommodates walk-ins too as long as there’s a hair stylist available. But it’s probably worth noting that the salon is always fully booked, so it’s better to set an appointment first.

The service is also amazing because Bon Hair has expert hair stylists who can do almost any type of hair cut. The price is also affordable so you don’t have to stretch your budget too much.

One of the things customers complain about are the misleading discount signs. The staff sometimes forget to take them down after the promo, so some customers who go inside for the discount end up disappointed when they have to pay the normal rates.

There are also a couple of incidents wherein the staff closes the salon 20 minutes earlier than what’s indicated in their business hours. So if you arrive by this time, you might not be accommodated, which can be a little irritating.

Pros

  • Gives complimentary haircut if the customer isn’t satisfied with the end result
  • Can handle any type of hair

Cons

  • Hair color services are expensive
  • Stylists tend to rush if there are many appointments for the day

Fgdolls Hair can deal with any type of hair so most customers who have delicate hair go to the salon for treatments and cuts. The stylists use different techniques for different kinds of hair, which we absolutely love. 

In fact, one of the good things about the salon is that the stylists thoroughly examine your hair first before giving style options that suit you. This way, hair damage will be prevented and you’ll have an easier time on maintenance.

We think you’ll also appreciate that while the salon is always fully booked, it still accommodates walk-in customers. However, this is probably the reason why sometimes, the hair stylists tend to rush, which leads to unsatisfactory results.

Fgdolls Hair gives a complimentary haircut if this happens. Though the damage has already been done, you’ll probably still appreciate this because the salon is willing to make up for the shortcomings of one of its hair stylists.

Another thing that might get you to reconsider other salons is its expensive hair color services. However, the salon uses quality hair color products and takes pride in their hair color services, so this is also a little reasonable.
