I am new to the area having only recently moved to Bayside and needed to find an experienced hairdresser as I have extremely coarse, wiry, thick, curly....basically totally unmanageable hair! A work colleague recommended Synergy Elwood to me and and as she also has thick curly hair I thought I'd give them a go. I was booked in with Andrew who is from the UK and was actually a really nice guy. He took the time to listen to my concerns and talked me through the style that would work for my hair type and face shape. He also told me how to look after it at home and what to use to make it more manageable.

I spent a few hours in the salon having a colour, treatment (with a wonderful scalp massage in their zen den) and cut & blow dry. I wanted to wait for a week or so before writing this review as I stepped out the salon feeling a million dollars! The most important thing for me though is how I can cope with my hair at home and now I can honestly say this is the best cut and colour I have ever had. I asked for a rich deep mahogany which is exactly what I have now and Andrew has designed a style that works with my strong hair movement so I don't have to fight with it in the mornings.

Thanks Synergy, I will recommend you to everyone!
