An Opportunity to Grow, Create & Inspire

COLOUR COSMETICA | HAIRDRESSING SALON & BEAUTY CLINIC

For talented hairdressers who want more than just another salon job.

More Than a Position. Be Part of Something Creative.

Are you an experienced hairdresser who takes pride in your craft, loves creating beautiful hair and wants to work alongside people who share your passion?

Do you have a strong professional reputation, a genuine connection with your clients and the ambition to continue developing your career?

At Colour Cosmetica, we are looking for a Senior Hairdresser / Creative Stylist who brings more than technical ability.

We want someone with personality, initiative, creativity and pride in their work. Someone who takes ownership, contributes ideas, supports their team and genuinely cares about creating exceptional client experiences.

We believe great hairdressers don't just create beautiful hair — they build relationships, inspire confidence and contribute to a salon culture where everyone can succeed.

About Colour Cosmetica

Colour Cosmetica is a fashion-forward hairdressing salon and advanced beauty clinic located in Adelaide's vibrant East End.

Our business brings together professional hairdressing, beauty, creativity and education through Colour Cosmetica Academy.

We are passionate about technical excellence, modern hairdressing, personalised client experiences and developing the next generation of industry professionals.

We are building a team of talented, motivated individuals who share our commitment to creativity, professionalism, continuous learning and outstanding service.

The Opportunity

We are looking for a confident, experienced Senior Hairdresser who enjoys all aspects of professional hairdressing, particularly:

- Creative cutting, precision haircutting and contemporary styling.

- Advanced colouring, blondes, balayage, highlighting and colour transformations.

- Professional consultations and personalised hair design.

- Building and retaining a loyal clientele.

- Delivering exceptional client experiences.

- Retail recommendations, rebooking and achieving salon performance targets.

- Supporting junior stylists and contributing to a positive team culture.





We are particularly interested in hairdressers who have an established professional reputation, a strong social media presence or an existing industry following.

You don't need to arrive with a full appointment book, but you must have the confidence, motivation and commitment to actively build and maintain a successful clientele.

- Take ownership — show initiative, take responsibility and follow through.

- Maintain high standards — value punctuality, presentation, preparation and attention to detail.

- Embrace growth — welcome feedback, ongoing education and new techniques.

- Think commercially — understand the importance of rebooking, retail, productivity and achieving salon budgets.

- Bring positive energy — communicate respectfully, solve problems and contribute to an inspiring environment.

We value talented individuals who are confident in their abilities while remaining humble, professional and willing to learn.

A Career Beyond the Salon

One of the unique opportunities at Colour Cosmetica is our connection with Colour Cosmetica Academy, our Registered Training Organisation.
