Reviews

“I found this salon to be very expensive and judging from my recent experience I do not agree with how they treat their customers. I recently paid Heading Out Hair and Beauty in Balwyn North $380 for a ¼ head foils, tint regrowth, trim and blow wave. I complained to the hairdresser 3 times during the application of the foils that my scalp was burning. When I got home I discovered open weeping wounds on my scalp in the ¼ head area where the foils were applied. I called the salon and spoke to the owner who asked me to come into the Heading Out branch in Fitzroy the next day to be assessed. I did so and was told by the manager at Fitzroy branch that I had bleach burns and said the hairdresser at Balwyn should have rinsed the product off immediately when I first complained. She applied some scalp oil to the wounds and told me not to wash my hair for at least a week. Three days later I sent an email to the owner requesting a refund for the colour service. I didn’t feel it was right to charge me so much for something that resulted in wounds to my scalp and horrible dirty hair for a week. I also consulted another qualified hairdresser who told me I should be able to get the cost of the colour refunded because the service was incorrectly carried out. Heading Out did not reply to my email for over a week, despite attempts to contact them again. When I eventually heard back from the manager at Fitzroy almost 2 weeks after the original service I was told they would not refund me and I had no proof the wounds were bleach burn, despite the fact that is exactly what I was told they were when I was “assessed” in the Fitzroy branch. Conveniently for them it was too late at that stage to have a doctor access my scalp because they had waited so long to reply to my email, a clever strategy it seems to me. I will never go back to any Heading Out salon.”””

“Had a cut and colour at your Balwyn salon mid December 2014. Cut was fine, colour was dreadful. I provided a photo of style and shade of colour I was after (ombre). It ended up completely uneven, 1 side clearly different to the other, and a blonde strip at the back higher up than the rest. Left side had a bad error where the foil wasn’t put into hair properly, so there was a line of my brown hair colour through the middle (ie; went from blonde, brown line, to blonde). Was not blended well at all. Literally went from my natural brown colour straight to blonde! Looked dreadful. Returned within your 7 day timeframe for it to be corrected (which one shouldn’t have to do given what I paid). Different colourist did the best she possibly could, but explained once parts of hair are lightened, difficult to go over and correct. Attempt to correct was unsuccessful. The faults still existed. Sent a really polite email to Heading Out head office and provided multiple photos, and requested a refund for colour portion, given it had been botched and unable to be fixed. A month went by and I had not heard back. Sent follow up email. Received email back from PA to Creative Director requesting I return for a 3rd time. Aside from being completely inconvenient, it can’t be fixed, so no point having someone mess around with colour on my hair for a 3rd time. I’d paid $297 for this cut and colour. A ridiculous amount of money for the poor job done on my hair. My return email was equally as polite, and I again requested my $150 back that I had paid for the colour. Basically after a few emails back and forth (me being really polite the entire time), I received a very abrupt response saying that they had ‘offered solutions to (me) to come into our salon’, and told me ‘that any issues are to be resolved in salon within a week and this is now well over a month’ … the only reason it was now well over a month is because Heading Out took 1 month to respond to my original email, and, only after I followed up! I did return for the 2nd visit within a week of the original visit, and Heading Out couldn’t fix it! Heading Out would not refund me for the botched colour done on my hair, that cannot be fixed! To expect a customer to return for a 3rd time is just silly and extremely rude. Heading Out had 2 attempts at colouring my hair, both unsuccessful, apart from being incredibly inconvenient, why would I have any confidence in letting Heading Out have a 3rd attempt at colouring my hair?? Worst hair dressing experience I have ever endured, worst customer service I have ever experienced. I wish I had done my research before going to Heading Out, as I have now seen many poor reviews about this salon chain. High staff turnover it appears, resulting in inexperienced staff, yet Heading Out still promotes itself as a ‘high end’ hair salon, and charge like one too. Skill set of staff does not match your super expensive prices. My colour looked like I had attempted it myself, or paid $10 for it. I have to wear my hair up and wait for it to grow out. I’ve been telling everybody about Heading Out, to make sure they never go to them.”

“I have been going to this salon for 2 years now, you need to ask for Melinda who is an excellent colourist, and for styling you need to ask for Michael who does an excellent blow wave, I would not trust to many others there, as the other girl described. Also pricing can get a bit much especially with colour, but they have a rewards program where you end up with a free haircut or colour. Service is great too with plenty of refreshments on hand, coffees, champagnes, hot chocolates and teas.”

“This is a salon run by inexperienced very young staff with no personal service. Their colouring skills are terrible, I usually have highlights and really dislike anything that resembles copper or orange which I specified at the outset. 3 hours later I came out with orange highlights, and a very lighter bank balance.”
