Tan City & Beauty

Tan city is not just a tanning salon, it’s actually a hairdressing salon, and a good one at that.
when you’ve been burned by overpriced hairdressers for mediocre cuts, or butchered by cheap ones, you start to pay really close attention to other people’s haircuts.
This can lead to
a) you looking like a stalker
b) you finding out hidden gems (meaning great airdressers minus the price tag)
On a specific occasion I stalked a work colleague about her hair, I’ve found both a and b.
The easiest way to find Tan City is to find Gladstone Park Hotel. Tan City is directly next to it.
Once you’ve found this place, you need to find the owner Trish, who will cut hair for $ 40, less for students and concession holders, and strike deals with you if you are after colour, foils, or caps (appt preferred).
The place attracts a consistent stream of loyal customers from young to old. All the hairdressers are fabs, I’ve witnessed numerous satisfied customers whilst waiting for my colours.
Trish was happy to get hot chocolate to entertain my daughter whilst waiting, and it looks likke the place attracts a loyal young male clients as well.
My colleague loved my hair cut so much that she took her daughter there (who loved it) and referred another friend (who loved it)
I was told in near future, the tanning bads will go, to be replaced by laser hair removal systems?
The only cons I have to mention is the hair wash basin is very basic, don’t expect glamour and luxe, but for a $ 40 cut, you probably shouldn’t complain too much either.
