I have been having my hair cut and coloured by Rebecca and Michelle at Vanilah for over 12 months now and I am completely satisfied. When I left South Yarra to live in Creswick (15 minutes from Ballarat) my most pressing personal need was a good hairdresser. I have fine hair that needs constant colour and precision cutting. Vanilah has the expertise, the professionalism and the friendliness I value in an excellent hairdresser. They even offer upfront advice and pricing before you start so no nasty surprises. I can highly recommend their service to locals and any newcomers.

First time customer at Vanilah, came in for a trim while staying in Ballarat. Was a bit nervous to go to someone new as I've been going to same hairdresser in melbourne for 9 years. I was really impressed with the service I received and also the cut done by Elise was fantastic,she did exactly what i hoped for and I left really happy!! I found the price very reasonable too.Thanks heaps.

Approximate cost: $66

Michelle from Vanilah started her apprenticeship in Adelaide with me in the mid 90's. When she moved interstate I always hoped that she would return or continue hairdressing. Not only has she continued she now owns and runs a successful salon recognised not only in Ballarat but Australia wide! Its been great to see you grow Michelle. There is no doubt in my mind Vanilah is quality. Cheers Davide (Underground Haircutters)

I will be moving back to Adelaide one day with my CV in hand and I promise I wont break anything on my first day back if you'll have me!!. Working for you was the highlight of my junior years. Thank you Davide for being an amazing mentor, this review bought tears to my eyes.

I had my first haircut at Vanilah last week by Tori - and it is the best haircut I've ever had!!! She and all the staff were incredibly friendly, and the salon is beautiful. Tori took the time to find out what I wanted, and to choose a style that suited my type of hair. I will definitely be going back to Tori, and recommending this fantastic salon to all my friends. Thanks Tori!!!!

Tori most defiantly a rising star in our team. You'll be happy to hear she recently placed in the regional world skills completion and daily showing a true talent for quality colour work. Well done Tori keep up the good work.
Thank you for the review they defiantly help raise our stylist and salon profile I'm glad you enjoyed your visit to our salon and thanks again.
Dont forget our last day before Christmas is the 21st of December then back on the 28th for New years.
Cheers Michelle

I don't usually leave reviews online but I have found it so hard to find a good hairdresser that I thought I would share my positive experience. All the staff were friendly. The space was pleasant. My hair was cut by Sam who was very helpful in helping me decide what to do (no easy task, as I was quite vague and had a few "hair challenges" to overcome). I was considering getting a colour she advised me I didn't really need to in order to get the result I wanted. I'm thrilled with the result and was impressed that she didn't try to sell me something I didn't really need. Good choice of background music too.

What a fantastic review. I remember your visit, you were the fun lady with the curls. This review is so sweet because that was Sams second day in our team we now can not imagine Vanilah with out her quiet no fuss approach. Thank you for taking the time to write a review it means a lot to us,taking a new staff member on can be very nerve racking and you have cemented for me that Sam is a keeper.

Thank you for taking the time to review. I like that it seems the whole team have really been apart of your experience. I feel that team work is what sets us apart, we learn daily from one another which means it just gets better for you our customer. Our salon goal is that a vast majority of people dont mind who does their hair because the faith in the salon overrides.
Kindest Regards
Michelle

You can come back any time and you can have 2 coffees if you like:) We use the bean Barn - Mopoke ground for plunger. You find the Bean Barn next to the town hall on Sturt street.

Hi MartyW, thanks for the heads-up! I wonder if management would consider stocking Craigâ??s Grounded Pleasures Hot Chocolate, made here in Ballarat? Afterall, a â??Chilliâ?? Hot Chocolate would be an added incentive to visit, especially on a cold Ballarat morning! Regards, Reeces
