From Friday 15 to Sunday 17 September, we celebrated a pretty amazing achievement – 27 years of franchising and 200 salons across Australia and New Zealand – with celebrations taking place in all Just Cuts Australian and New Zealand salons. We kicked it back to the year Just Cuts began – 1990 – with Stylists sporting custom made, retro Just Cuts visors, fashion that was all the rage in the nineties, plus big hair to boot to create a unique and exciting visit for all Clients who walked through our salon doors.
Here’s what Just Cuts Stylists had to say about the flashback celebrations…
“This is amazing. It takes me back to my generation!”
“Our Team loves the caps – the bright colours are so pretty!”
“We’re really excited to do something different. It’s always nice to do something out of the ordinary!”
“You can really feel the positivity in the Team. It’s boosted everyone’s morale!”
“We love it and would definitely like more dress up fun!”

“This is such a huge milestone for our brand and we couldn’t be prouder. This is really about celebrating our loyal Clients and tireless Franchise Owners and Stylists who we couldn’t have done this without”, says Just Cuts CEO and Founder, Denis McFadden. “And we’d also like to thank our first ever Franchise Owners, Leigh-Anne and Greg Brosens who opened Just Cuts Engadine, NSW, in 1990 and still own the salon today!”
“Australians have grown up with Just Cuts, visiting as children for our complimentary baby’s first haircut. And these very Clients now bring their own kids in! There’s no doubt we’re in the business for the long haul”, he added.
Just Cuts is proudly Australian owned, is the largest and most successful hairdressing company in the Southern Hemisphere and we have over 3,000 qualified hairdressers across Australia and New Zealand. This year, we opened our 200th salon in Mandurah, WA, as well as our $3 million warehouse and international distribution centre in Caringbah, NSW. We also bought back the Just Cuts New Zealand Master Franchise, uniting both countries under our Academy Head Office Team in Sydney.
We’ve made some pretty incredible contributions to the community and industry over the past 27 years. Here are just a few that we’re proud to be able to share with you:
- Just Cuts was founded in 1990 on a fixed price, no appointment system which changed the hairdressing business model and entire industry completely
