Brisbane & Gold Coast’s Best Blonde Hair Salon

Voted as Brisbane’s Best Blonde Hairdresser by Style Magazine, Epic Hair Designs specialises in creating exceptional blondes.

From bold blondes, to soft balayage and natural honey tones, we create the perfect blonde for you while maintaining the integrity of your hair. Our expert stylists will consult with you before your service to ensure we achieve the blonde of your dreams.

HOW TO MAINTAIN YOUR BLONDE

Blonde hair requires at-home and in-salon maintenance to ensure your hair doesn’t become brassy, dry or damaged. The best way to protect your hair is by asking your stylist to add our Olaplex treatment when they lighten your hair. As one of the most well-known brands for hair restoration, Olaplex works to minimise damage and repairs your hair during the colouring/lightening service.

Strawberry Blondes

Whether you are looking for a subtle hint of warmth or a vibrant strawberry finish, our expert colourists will craft a shade that enhances your features and feels uniquely yours.

Which Blonde Suits Me?

If you are thinking of going lighter, consider the following:

Consultation is Key: Set up a consultation with your stylist to decide which blonde tones will suit your skin tone, eye colour, and personal style. An expert will help map out your ideal shade and technique.
Hair History Matters: Be honest about your hair’s colour history. Years of colour build-up or previous dye can affect your lightening journey. Disclosing this helps us create the most accurate (and achievable) blonde plan for you.
Hair Health First: Although our stylists’ top priority is maintaining your hair’s health, lightening does put some stress on your strands. If your stylist advises that your hair isn’t in an ideal condition to go blonde right now, trust their guidance. They can customise a repairing treatment program to get your hair stronger and prepared for a future blonde transformation.

How Can We Protect Your Hair?

Going blonde can be stressful on the hair without the right precautions, which is why at Epic Hair Designs in Brisbane and the Gold Coast we only use top quality products.

As an official Goldwell salon, we work with Goldwell’s gentle blonde colour formulas that contain minimal ammonia, the best choice for maintaining your hair’s health during a blonding service.

Epic Hair Designs protects your blonde hair at every step of your lightening journey with advanced in salon treatments. Our go to bond protection treatment is Olaplex, which reinforces hair and prevents breakage during blonde services, with an at home range for lasting results. Alongside Olaplex, we also offer the K18 2 Step Repair System, designed to prepare, protect and repair blonde hair in just 6 minutes. The K18 Pre Colour Mist strengthens before a service, while the K18 Mask repairs and seals in softness afterwards. For anyone starting a new blonde colour journey in Brisbane or the Gold Coast, we highly recommend incorporating both Olaplex and K18 into your in salon routine and home care.

The Process

We’ll design your blonde journey in-salon while taking into account your lifestyle, expectations, current hair care routine, and the time you’re willing to invest in upkeep. Everything is tailored to fit you.

Your Blonde

Our colour partner, Goldwell, has a global reputation for gentle, high-performance colour. Their colouring base can actually leave your hair in better condition – up to 25% improved – after your blonde service. Your hair’s health remains intact and glossy.

Toning

Queensland’s humidity and sun can quickly cause brassiness in blonde hair. We counteract this with expert toning treatments to keep your blonde cool, bright, and flawless. Say goodbye to unwelcome yellow or brassy hues!

Home Hair Care

Your Epic stylist will customise a home hair-care routine for you, recommending professional shampoos, conditioners, and treatments to keep your blonde salon-fresh between visits. Maintaining your tone and hydration at home means your colour will continue to look luxurious for longer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Going from brunette to blonde?

Transforming from a medium or dark brunette to blonde is an exciting yet significant change. It’s important to plan ahead – start by setting a realistic budget and timeline, as achieving your desired blonde might take multiple sessions. Professional expertise in highlighting and toning is essential to get that perfect shade while keeping your hair healthy. We also consider your skin tone and underlying pigments to determine how light you can go and what toner will flatter you best. With a proper plan (and a bit of patience), you can successfully go from brunette to blonde with gorgeous results.

Going from black to blonde?

If your hair is dyed black or naturally very dark, going blonde will be a gradual journey. You’ll likely need multiple lightening sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart to safely reach your ideal blonde shade. Generally, virgin (never-dyed) hair lifts more easily, whereas previously colored hair may take a bit longer and require extra care. Before we begin, we’ll conduct a thorough consultation and hair health check to ensure your locks can handle the process. With patience and our professional care at each step, we’ll get you to the blonde you want while keeping your hair’s integrity intact.

Going from red to blonde?

Transitioning from red to blonde often means first removing or neutralizing the red pigments in your hair. If you’re a natural redhead, the process can be a bit easier; if your red shade comes from hair dye, expect a few colour correction steps similar to other major colour changes. To achieve that perfect blonde, you will likely need more than one appointment – gradual lightening is key to minimizing damage. Rest assured, we’ll plan out a safe lightening schedule for you. After reaching your ideal blonde, we’ll also set you up with a color-safe hair care regimen to protect your new hue and keep it looking vibrant.
