A Close Shave with Johnny Voodoos
To kick off the New Year, I did
what every girl loves to do, I had a hair makeover! Something completely new
and different. Something fun and exciting. I posted a picture of my new ‘do on
Instagram but I’ve been meaning to go into a little more detail on here, but
with catching up on my Japan trip, I just hadn’t got around to it. But I had my
new style freshened up the other day and I have some exciting news about that
so I thought what better time to share!
I felt like something a bit
different, and what could be more different for me than shaving my head!? Of
course, not my whole head, but I’ve really been enjoying my new look with the
side shaved in. Lots of people have told me it really suits me, but best of all
I really love it! I love my purple hair too, so I decided to keep that going.
But like all vibrant colours, it needs a little extra TLC. Enter Jay and
Hayley, from Johnny Voodoo’s Barbershop Springwood.
Carrying on the excellent work of the original Johnny Voodoo’s Barbershop in Camira, these two are now manning the new shop, located in Old Skool Tattoo Springwood. This is very good news for me for two reasons. 1) This is just down the road from my work, which makes popping in super easy and 2) this barbershop not only does some of the best quiffs and flattops in Brisbane, but they’re also doing ladies hair now!!
I’m so excited about this! For
ages, I’ve been watching The Man get his hair done in the super cool confines
of the Johnny Voodoo’s Barbershop and wishing that there was a place as cool as
this for women. Now there is! Covered wall to wall in Kustom Kulture artwork,
skate decks and oddities, you can recline in an old school barber chair and let
Jay and Hayley work their magic on your hair. Forget about boring gossip magazines and Top 40 radio stations, here you'll find cool tattoo and kustom culture magazines and catchy rockabilly and psychobilly tunes. Not only that, but you can also
enjoy a cold beer – now THAT’S service!
So while I enjoyed an ice cold
Corona, Jay got to work bringing my new ‘do back to its former glory. Look at
that re-growth and old, washed out colour – I’m ashamed! But by the time Jay
was done with me I felt like a new woman and left the shop feeling a million
bucks! First we bleached my roots, then applied the colour which was a custom
mix Jay created just for me from those beautifully vibrant Manic Panic
products. After plenty of processing time for colour vibrancy and longevity, it
was a nice wash, quick trim and shave and a blow dry that left my hair feeling
light, silky and shiny.
I think the results speak for
themselves. It’s so awesome that there is finally a place as cool as this for
women to get their hair done! The boys have been having all the fun for far too
long. In saying that, Jay and Hayley are still right on top of mens cuts as
well. In fact, with Valentine’s Day fast approaching, they’re offering a mens
and ladies cut combo for $80 plus 20% off all colour!! What could be more
romantical than getting your hair done together!?
Walk-ins are welcome, but it’s
best to call to book for colours so that they can make sure they have the
perfect colour waiting for you. For bookings call 3219 8702.
