Here at Delilah Hair Studio, we’re a happy little family. We all love what we do, and we’ve worked hard to assemble a team of expert Melbourne hairdressers that has more than just a few things in common. We all have a burning desire to push the boundaries, to never stop improving and to create fabulous hairstyles every single day.

MR.D

Queen Delilah-ette

With Adrian on the job, you’ll never have to worry about making small talk in the chair—there’s nothing he likes more than a good conversation. He is an expert dry cutter – something of an evangelist in that particular movement, you might say.

He loves everything from 70s shag haircuts, bobs and bangs, to edgy, sharp classic and modern looks and everything in between. He’s also something of a master with colours. Whether it’s balayage or choosing the perfect shade to match your skin tone, MR.D makes sure you end up with a beautiful natural colour to shimmy around in.

He is also the creator of the, famed range and ever popular, Delilah Curl Creams and Liquid Hair Products. Hand crafting them from his Footscray studio and getting them into the curls of peeps all over Australia!

He loves what he does so much that he’s travelled around the world as an educator and now runs workshops out of our very own studio.

She’s electric, she’s enigmatic and she’s downright extraordinary on the salon floor.

Dani is one of Delilah’s resident curl-crazy stylists with a magic touch for creating voluptuous, effortlessly chic curly do’s.

They’re a queer babe from the country, and when they’re not a storm of creativity in the salon, you might catch them tearing up the pavement on her beloved roller-skates!

Meet Guech, a recently qualified senior stylist in training at Delilah and a true specialist in curly cuts and natural texture.

Guech brings a grounded confidence to the salon floor, shaped by years of learning, refining, and really listening to hair. He understands that texture isn’t something to control or correct, it’s something to respect, read, and work with. His approach is thoughtful and intuitive, often working with the hair dry, especially when cutting curls, so he can respond to how it naturally sits and moves.

Deeply connected to the idea of hair as identity, Guech creates work that feels personal. Whether it’s a soft shape that enhances what’s already there or something more directional, he works closely with you to bring out the best version of your texture.

Known for his calm energy and attention to detail, Guech has a way of making people feel at ease in the chair. His focus is always on creating hair that not only looks right, but feels right in your everyday life.

If you’re ready to understand your natural texture on a deeper level, Guech is someone you can trust to guide that process.

Cornelius with textured fringe at Delilah Studio

Cornelius

Delilah-ette Apprentice

Creative to the core, curious about everything and already hooked on the magic of a good haircut. Say hello to Cornelius!

For Cornelius, hair has never been just a haircut. They love how transformative it can be, how it helps us shape, explore and express who we are. Having lived that themselves, they understand how personal a head of hair really is.

As a first-year apprentice they’re soaking up the craft, from cutting and styling to reading natural texture and curly hair. They’re endlessly interested in all the different ways hair can make someone feel bloody fantastic. Book them for a blow-dry or a treatment and you’ll see it.

Outside the salon they’re a maker too. Pre-loved clothes get a whole new life in their hands, reworked into designs that are uniquely theirs, and there’s usually drawing, cooking or a long stretch of Brunswick East sunshine in there somewhere.

We’re very excited to watch this one grow.

Check out what Cornelius is creating right here.

Fresh, fizzing with ideas and ready to learn all the things. Meet Paige!

Paige came to hairdressing for the creativity and stayed for the people. No two heads of hair are the same, and she loves that every client brings their own personality, texture and ideas into the chair with them.

She’s a listener first. For Paige, a great haircut starts with someone feeling comfortable enough to say what they actually want, and she’s already building the kind of trust that keeps people coming back.

As a first-year apprentice she’s curious, creative, and absorbing everything, from cutting and styling to curly hair and natural texture. Pop in for a treatment and let her look after you.

Away from the salon, Paige has been documenting her life through journals and DIY magazines, building a physical archive of memories, ideas and small moments worth keeping. Up-cycling fashion also inspires her creativity.

This is only page one!

Take a look at what Paige is up to right here.
