Reviews

“As a hired model, I had the opportunity to be amongst some of the best hair stylists from over Australia to try the new Smartbond products. I can honestly say that each stylist showed an enthusiastic professional caring attitude which provided you with the best service and product knowledge for your hair type and it’s needs. I highly recommend everyone who loves hair or wants to experience a different level of hair dressing you give them a go �”

“Needing some serious hair TLC, I found Rakis through Google and was convinced by the great reviews on Facebook, so I called and booked an appointment.
Pasquale’s devoted attention to me and our lovely banter made my salon experience unforgettable. Not to mention the fantastic fresh cut my hair and I so desperately needed! I absolutely love my new hair! Thank you, Pasquale!
Stavros- It is so lovely to reference back to the Rakis website and see that the vision and culture your brand image projects, translates so genuinely in reality.
Can’t wait to be back!”

“Earlier this week, I had the most incredible experience with Rakis On Collins. I never knew that cutting hair was an art form, until i visited this gorgeous Salon. Stavros has recreated my hair, and has made me feel a hundred times more confident. Thank you so much to Stavros and his warm, inviting team.”

“As a professional stylist (visiting from Sydney) I have to say that my experience at Rakis was exceptional and I hope to return to Melbourne soon to visit the salon again! My stylist was Alex, who’s was lovely and bright from the first encounter and as the visit progressed she expressed her expertise whithin the industry as she suggested some products and a treatment. I gave her free play with my hair and I am positively happy with the results! (Also AMAZING massage)
The whole team were friendly, a relaxed atmosphere too.. Be sure to check out their awesome postcards!
Worth the visit!”

“Thank you for my amazing eyelash extensions! They are by far the best I have had & would highly recommend Bianca!”
