I had a terrible hair disaster that meant my long, curly hair was ruined. I knew I needed an expert to help me. I called with desperation in my voice on a saturday morning and Cesare called back within 20 minutes making a special appointment for me that afternoon even though he wasn't working that day.
I felt immediately re-assured when we met that he knew his stuff and he gave me so much advice and educated knowledge about what we could do with my hair and how to make it work for me. He was so kind as he cut into my long hair and cut it into a new and beautiful look that only someone with such talent and knowledge could do. He spent several hours with me getting things perfect and helping me transition into my new hair and, in some ways, life. His lovely wife kept their 3 young children busy whilst he finished our appointment, which was so kind. I'll be back for a colour soon and for hair care with him for years to come!

My mum and I have been going to Ceasar since December 2014 and it's always a lovely experience. I have naturally curly hair and I've grown to love them thanks to Ceasar-I haven't used a straightener since! My hair is currently short in layers and it feels so free. I can't thank Ceasar enough for his work on my hair and his thorough explanations about what he does to it and why. His vibrant personality and stories are also perks of booking an appointment. Also, special thanks to Sylviana for always accommodating our bookings!

I have been seeing Chez for a few years now and he is fantastic! I have curly hair and he is a master of it. He keeps it healthy and looking it's best. The colour he users is beautiful and long lasting! The products he users are also great for my hair. I have tried several curly hairdressers in Melbourne and Chez is by far the best!! I Definitely recommend.

I am a surgeon by profession and have spent all my life with frizzy hair, tied up in a ponytail/ bun. I wanted to learn more about how to manage curly hair without having to spend a whole lot of time with chemical/ heat treatments.
Caesar hands is a one of its kind salon, I haven't experienced hair cut any where close to this level of personal attention and professionalism. Caesar is a gentle, kind soul, highly experienced and very scientific in his approach. He takes you through every step of what he intends to do in a very detailed fashion. But he also manages to give some golden practical words of advise. Thanks to him I am now more confident of leaving my hair open without the need for straightening irons/ curlers. I would highly recommend him, he is a talented gem!

My father-in-law was a brilliant hairdresser but since his death 15 years ago, I have visited only two hairdressers - one in Sydney in 1994 (very expensive, hair ended up like frizzy straw) and one in Kew, Melbourne (brilliant cutter, many awards, sadly has retired since I saw him in about 2003 - many will guess I mean Aldo Raymond). So I do know a good cutter when I see one, and know how important a good one is, but was terrified about finding someone. I am 58, unwell and only just coming out of my shell after a bad marriage breakup a decade ago. My hair is thin, damaged and affected by hormonal imbalances due to a tumour. It is a major challenge. Not only did Ceasar give volume and shine and a whole new lightness to my hair but the cut was exactly what my hair and my face needed. The colour appointment was the same - brilliant and long-lasting result that enhanced and improved both the look and the health of my hair. He explained every problem, every step of the treatment, and how to maintain his work. Above all, he was friendly and gentle and reassuring and the most lovely, generous, insightful man. I cannot recommend him highly enough both professionally and personally. It would be a privilege to meet him at a dinner party; it's an even greater one to meet him as a customer at his hair salon!
His service is not bargain basement but it is worth every cent. A good cut lasts way longer than a bad cut (thankfully) and damaged hair is an expensive colour not a bargain. Considered in this sense, both his services and his supporting products represent great value for money.

Calling Ceasar's Hands a 'hair salon' is like calling chocolate 'just something to eat' - there's no comparison. Everything from the moment I walked in was a reminder, that this was someone who genuinely wanted the best for his customers, and wasn't just there to 'cut my hair'. Not only did I receive a hair cut that accentuated my features, Ceasar also taught me about the health of my hair, suggested products to improve it, all the while treating me like an old friend. As the only customer in the salon, it is evident that Ceasar genuinely takes his time to ensure you get the best result possible. The perfect focus on style AND health, coupled with the genuine warmth of Ceasar himself has converted me for life! Already booked in for my next appointment, and I can relax knowing my hair is in good hands :)

I meant to write this feedback about 6 months ago when I had my haircut at Ceasar’s Hands for the first time. I quite liked the experience and had a lot of complements about my haircut afterwards.
Here is what I liked about Ceasar’s Hands:
- Good customer service with attention to details
- He is passionate about what he does (happy to spend as much time needed to deliver a satisfactory outcome)
- He is knowledgeable and experienced (I agree with some previous comments about him not asking what the client want but in my case he knew better than me what suited me best!)
- Holistic approach considering your anthropometry, your personality and lifestyle, and what you do when suggesting a haircut/hairstyle.
- I had a nice head massage that took my headache away.
- With the comments he made about the tension he felt in my neck/muscle scalps, I was encouraged to be more self-aware and pay more attention to my postures especially at work. It was certainly not what I expected from having a haircut.
- I didn’t look very different after the haircut but everyone loved my curls and livelier look.
I would love to go back for another haircut and will probably have hair colour as well.

I saw Ceasar about 2 weeks ago for the first time. As well as wanting a hair cut I was also after some hair and scalp advice as I had some things I wanted improved. Ceasar provided great feedback on ways I could improve these areas. He approached my hair cut differently from other people I have seen as he paid close attention to the shape of my head and facial structure. I also purchased a couple of his products and have been very happy with the way my hair and scalp is now.

First time consult and cut. He did what he wanted and not what I asked - and I was clear about what I wanted. The cut is too short and not symmetrical - looks like he forgot to layer one side while the other side is over-layered and unworkable. So again I wait another 3 months to grow out the elements that I hated from my previous cut that he put back in, and I continue my search for a stylist who will listen to what I want and not simply cut it the way they think I will look good (it looks bad!). So disappointed and saddened.
