In fact, Epic Hair Designs has picked up a “swag of awards including the Courier Mail’s best Brisbane hairdresser for 2023 and Australian Hair Industry Awards 2020 title for State Salon of the Year”. With 18 locations spanning Brisbane and the Gold Coast, our award-winning salons continue to deliver exceptional experiences. These accolades, voted by our community and judged by industry leaders, reaffirm our commitment to being the best hairdresser in Brisbane and beyond. We remain grateful and motivated – celebrating each win with humility while striving to elevate Queensland’s salon experience even further.

Goldwell Color Zoom Winners & Creative Hairdressing Awards

Our team’s creative talent shines on the world stage – bringing home top honors in hairdressing competitions and showcasing Queensland artistry in international arenas.

Epic Hair Designs’ stylists have demonstrated extraordinary skill and creativity, earning recognition in some of the world’s biggest hair competitions. We are especially proud of our recent triumph at Goldwell’s Color Zoom (now known as the Color Sphere Global Creative Awards). In this renowned international hair coloring contest, our talented colourists achieved an unprecedented sweep – winning Gold, Silver, and Bronze in the Australian finals.

In 2025, our dedication paid off spectacularly as our team traveled to Milan – the global fashion capital – to showcase their artistry on the international stage. These achievements highlight the brilliance and hard work of our stylists and reinforce Epic Hair Designs as a Goldwell Color Zoom winner that represents Brisbane and the Gold Coast with creativity and passion.

AHIA Business Awards & Community Honors

Excellence in business and a heart for the community – our accolades go beyond styling hair, reflecting a salon culture of innovation, leadership, and giving back.

Epic Hair Designs has distinguished itself not just in creativity, but also in business performance and philanthropy. We were honored to be named Queensland’s Best Salon at the 2020 Australian Hair Industry Awards (AHIA), winning the State Salon of the Year title. Our brand was also awarded the AHIA Vidal Sassoon Humanitarian of the Year 2022, recognising Epic’s commitment to charitable work and community impact.

Equally rewarding is our recognition for community contributions. In 2025, Epic Hair Designs was proud to be a finalist for Corporate Philanthropist of the Year at the Queensland Gives Philanthropy Awards, highlighting our mission to support local causes. Since 2008, we have been on a mission to uplift our community through financial commitments, sponsorships, volunteer participation and pro bono support. From partnering with charities and industry training programs to initiatives like fundraising for cancer research and domestic violence support, we believe in making a positive impact.

Brisbane award-winning salon culture at Epic means success is shared – we invest in our team and our community. Every business trophy and philanthropy honor is both a source of pride and a reminder to stay true to our values. We celebrate these achievements with gratitude, knowing that our drive for excellence and compassion – backed by our amazing team and loyal clients – is what makes Epic Hair Designs truly EPIC in the salon industry.
