Pivot Point Academy

If I was unemployed with no money or I won the lottery and didn’t have to work weekdays anymore, I would always come here to have my hair made perfect. Pivot Point Academy does amazing things with hair and there is nowhere else in Sydney where you can get a wash, cut and blow dry for $ 15. Okay so for a cheap price, there’s got to be a catch right? Yes, the catch is Pivot Point Academy is a TAFE accredited salon which experienced students practice their hairdressing skills.
So they might not be the 10 years experienced Tony and Guy guys yet, but don’t dare judge them as inexperienced. If anything, unlike the experienced hairdresser who can lie to you and tell you their butchered job is the «latest trend», these students who cut your hair depend on quality to pass their exams and become hair dressers in the future. So they actually care that your hair comes out just like those Pantene models. Further, there’s this really lovely lady (forgot her name) who notices every tiny bit of detail, strand by strand, so if you do get the clumsy, careless student, they won’t be allowed to take off the neck strangling hairdresser bib off you until it is perfect. Thank you lovely lady!
It really does feel like an affordable salon when you do come here for the wash, cut and blow-​dry. The wash is really relaxing as they massage your scalp under warm water using nice products you usually couldn’t afford under your own budget constraints. Then when you get your hair cut, you’re offered a cup of tea and a trash magazine buffet-​all the horrible angles of Kim Kardashian’s pregnancy you can handle whilst you lose those unsightly ends off your head! The blow dry is then where they transform your lifeless hair into those movie star looks. Want curly, straight or lightly flicked locks tonight? Make sure to go here that day. You won’t be disappointed when you walk out, they spend around 2 hours on you and for only $ 15, it’s hard to believe that this place exists in a first-​world city as expensive as Sydney.
I wish I had time or won the lottery so that I could come here on Monday to Thursday when they’re open to provide salon treatments at minimal prices.
Note: They also provide other hair services such as foils, dyeing, straightening and perms, all at the lowest prices you will ever see from a professional salon.
