The results are in for one of the Courier Mail’s biggest local competitions. After thousands of nominations and a week of voting, Epic Hair Designs was named Brisbane’s Best Hairdressers 2023.
This award was an incredible achievement for our entire Epic family. Most importantly, it recognised the dedication and talent our team brought to our 15 salons each day.
We could not have achieved this milestone without our loyal clients and the wider Brisbane community. Therefore, we want to thank everyone who nominated Epic Hair Designs, voted for us and continued to support our salons.
Voted Brisbane’s Best Hairdressers 2023
The Courier Mail competition invited Brisbane locals to nominate and vote for their favourite hairdressers. As a result, thousands of people had the opportunity to recognise the salons and stylists they trusted.
Being voted Brisbane’s Best Hairdressers 2023 meant so much to our team. It celebrated the care, creativity and professionalism our hairdressers brought to every appointment.
In addition, the award reflected the relationships our salons had built with clients throughout Brisbane. Many of those relationships had continued for years. Some clients had even been part of the Epic story since our earliest days.
Although the award carried the Epic Hair Designs name, it belonged to every team member. Our stylists, apprentices, salon coordinators, managers and support teams all contributed to the client experience.
The recognition was also highlighted in a later Courier Mail profile of Epic Hair Designs, which explored the growth of the business and its contribution to Queensland’s hairdressing industry.
A Proud Moment for Our Epic Team
When Epic Hair Designs received the news, founder Brendon Mann described the award as a positive moment after several challenging years.
Many industries faced uncertainty during the COVID-19 pandemic. Hairdressing was no exception. However, our teams continued to adapt while supporting one another and caring for our clients.
The award represented more than a competition result. Instead, it became a celebration of the people behind Epic Hair Designs and their commitment to the industry.
Since opening our first salon in 2008, we have had the privilege of growing alongside our clients. For example, Brendon regularly meets guests who have visited Epic Hair Designs for more than a decade.
Those long-standing relationships are an important part of our story. Moreover, they remind us that great hairdressing is built on trust, consistency and genuine connection.
What Sets an Award-Winning Brisbane Salon Apart?
We believe consistency is essential to creating an outstanding salon experience. Therefore, every appointment is designed to make our clients feel welcomed, comfortable and cared for.
From the moment a client walks through our doors, our goal is to provide an experience that feels polished yet relaxing. Our modern salons, signature scent and thoughtful refreshments all contribute to that feeling.
Of course, the salon environment is only one part of the experience. Our skilled hairdressers also take the time to understand each client’s hair, lifestyle and desired result.
As a result, every service can be personalised to the individual. Whether a client visits for a cut, colour, treatment or styling service, our team focuses on creating beautiful and wearable hair.
Furthermore, our salons use professional products selected to support the hair’s condition and appearance. This allows our stylists to create results that look beautiful while prioritising healthy-looking hair.
These details all contributed to Epic Hair Designs being recognised as Brisbane’s Best Hairdressers 2023.

Meet the Team Behind Brisbane’s Best Hairdressers 2023
Our hairdressers are at the heart of Epic Hair Designs. Their professionalism, creativity and technical ability made this recognition possible.
However, exceptional results are not created by talent alone. Our team members continually learn, refine their techniques and support one another. In turn, this shared commitment helps us provide a consistent experience across our salons.
Our apprentices also play an important role in the Epic family. Through practical experience, education and mentoring, they develop the skills needed to become the next generation of talented hairdressers.
Meanwhile, our salon and support teams help every location run smoothly. Together, their work creates the welcoming and professional experience our clients know and love.
