Madame Josephine’s new Home in Gilbert Place

The salon which was previously rooms for a physiotherapist, “Australian Electronic Therapy Services”, although clean and clinical, had had little renovations carried out since the turn of the century. Madame Josephine having seen the potential of the sight with North-South lighting, which is essential for her beautician, in skin care and make-up and also for hair colouring, acquired the site which is in between the Pancake Kitchen and The Omelet Pan, and then commenced the task of the renovations, which were to take 12 months from inception to completion.

Although demolition of the existing building would have been less worrisome, Madame Josephine wished to contain the character of this section of Gilbert Place, which although being totally Adelaidean, is so cosmopolitan could be in any part of Europe – for this task a special kind of person had to be found who could marry old and ultra-modern, this person was found in Architect, Michael Feilder.

Plans, drawings, on site meetings, more drawings, more plans, structural changes, skylights of 12 metres, extra skylights and methodically Builder, Don Both completed his masterpiece, the Madame Josephine Salon.

From the commencement of the salon all possible fittings were to be South Australian, a point which Madame Josephine felt strongly on and from armor plated doors to oak trolleys, South Australian craftsmen were commissioned and the result a salon which is second to none.

Madame Josephine, being the first women Director of I.H.S. Australia, also holds numerous other Directorships, including LCD. and also being a founding member of the South Australian Hair Fashion Council. It’s delegate from Australia to the World Congress of Haute Coiffure in Paris at which she demonstrated. Madame Josephine was invited to Milan to show her expertise and there was awarded the highest award (a gold medal).

You may have had plenty of haircuts before, but never a hair STYLE until you see George!
He has an amazing ability & talent with all hair types & will guide you through what needs to be done to maintain or achieve the perfect result. You always leave feeling fantastic!!

He has cut my hair for over 10 years & every time I make the mistake to go somewhere more convenient/closer to home, I regret my decision.”
