Sui

One of the best place in Melbourne cbd to cut your hair. They are almost always busy make sure you make an appointment.

The place seems to always be full of both walk-​ins and their regular customers. I like their system of getting services done for each customer, seems quite organised. The lady who cut my hair, as per usual for a salon, did try to ask me to do some treatment for my very damaged hair as well for another $ 50. I usually have my own products and do them at home whenever I can, so I didn’t take that offer. The lady was still quite nice and the cut was pretty decent. I wish they would have some Shiseido products, at least for colouring. But from what I can grasp, it’s rather a Korean-​operated shop so I’m guessing the products they’re using must be quite good for a Korean brand.

Called the day before to cut my hair as I’ve been looking for a place to cut my hair. After my experience at the Drunken barber I was keen to find another hair dresser after my regular hair dresser had a baby and moved to suburbia.
The experience was 5 star. Had Lisa cut my hair I was in and out in 15 mins and the haircut is amazing.
Highly recommended.

Went to their Sui 2 in the arcade off little bourke st for the first time, and was kind of nervous as it was the first time in a long while that I had my haircut done at a new place since my original hair dresser in the suburbs decided to pursue another career. Anyway was treated very well at Sui 2 and got a hairwash and cut. Emily managed to cut my hair and made an ugly bloke like me look 10 years younger. Good service all round for what you pay!

So glad to find an affordable salon that knows how to work with asian hair. I got my haircut here 4 weeks ago and it’s grown out great. Just popped in today to get my fringe recut and instead of making an assumption and lopping it off, my guy (can’t remember his name but he always wears a suit) carefully trimmed my fringe and trimmed it back gradually until we were both happy with the length. No too short hair nightmares here thank goodness.
They also have a loyalty card that adds credit and can give you discounts in the future.
Only random thing was my first time here there were 3 dogs in the salon who temporarily had a barking competition…
I’ll definitely be back!

I had a fairly decent experience at Sui. I’m very sensitive about my hair and have a difficult time trusting new hairdressers with it. With that said, it was time for a haircut and without any convincing recommendations from Melbournians, I sought to find a salon/​hairdresser on my own.
My hairwashing experience frightened me and made me terrified of what my haircut would be like. Luckily the washer was not the same as the cutter. In the middle of my wash, I wondered if I could request to wash it myself. I’m sorry, but shouldn’t it be a basic thing to learn if you are working in a salon? My washer couldn’t get the temperature right — too cold, too hot, cold. And I couldn’t understand what she was saying to me when she was trying to adjust the heat. Then I got heaps of water splashed into my ear. I’m sorry, if I need my ears washed out I will go to the doctor’s. Then I got shampoo shoved into my ear. Water was dripping all over my neck and down my forehead. Unacceptable! It’s been a few hours since my haircut and I’ve just found a gigantic piece of shampoo in my external ear. Gross.
However, Heidy came to the rescue and cut my hair exactly the way I wanted it. She made me feel comfortable with going to a much shorter hairdo, and was very competent at cutting my thick Asian hair. She was meticulous and focused, and hygienic! When one of the combs fell on the floor, she made sure to use a new and clean one from the cart.
It’s a bit weird, they have two hair dryers and two flat irons — I suppose to speed up the service? It was interesting for ten seconds, but I really didn’t feel comfortable with my incompetent hair-​washer straightening the same piece of hair 5 times. I didn’t cut it short to have it roasted by an iron. I much preferred when Heidy worked on my hair.
Overall, I felt like the price was decent, the salon was clean and bright, and my hairdresser did a satisfying job on my hair. I’d go back, but I’d just probably wash my hair beforehand.

Recently went there and was treated badly, didn’t get the hair style I wanted. Don’t recommend going there.

I love stopping in here for a wash and blow dry, it’s only $ 35 and service is fast, efficient and friendly. They always do a great job. Other salons charge up to $ 60 for the same and it’s no better. You often get two hairdressers drying your hair at once which makes it an even quicker process.
There are a few Sui salons around the city but I’ve tended to just go to this one based on location mostly.
I’ve just come from a blow dry and feel great!
