You will find Milena @ THE LEOPARD LOUNGE tucked away in one of Newtown’s leafy side-streets, just off King with parking right out the front - Australia’s only private retro/vintage hair salon. It’s private which means no disruptions, no phones, no trainees, no passing you around to under-skilled staff. From concept to completion only Milena attends to you and you only!
A very unique experience with the highest level of service, expertise and client satisfaction in a hip, retro decorated studio. High hair and High tea? Or perhaps a glass of wine or Campo’s cappuccino for the ladies whilst your organic and toxic free, scalp soothing colour is processing. For the boys a cold beer is on the house whilst I turn you into Don Draper (Madmen).
Due to the unavailability of quality plant based and essential oil hair care products, Milena decided to develop her very own product range. Milena hair care range “Get THERAPY” organic treatment for stressed hair is unlike anything you’ve ever used before, this product truly stands alone. With products like “Rehab”, “Get a Grip”, “Support Me” and “Toughen Up” this is the only Therapy you’ll ever want!
