Meet our little mascot and namesake, Daisie. She's a sweet 1969 Volkswagon Beetle, and while she is not by any means a show car, she is a cute and super fun way for us to drive around and get from our place to yours. Daisie gives main character vibes and she is available for hire as a paid extra for professional photography and chauffeur driven arrivals by the hour, and even if you don't need transport you and your party are always welcome to pop out and take a free selfie with her as a backdrop on the big day! We like to think of hiring her as a great addition to add to your bridal hair party package, and a totally fun way to remember the experience having your hair done with Daisie & Me!

Hi, I’m Michelle, the owner of Daisie & Me. I started hairdressing in the late 90’s and since then I have worked in Brisbane and London both in and out of the hair industry. I love styling hair, and I am very much inspired by the vintage aesthetics of the 60’s and 70’s – from peace and free love and feminism to the hair and also the cars, of course. My favorite looks to create are big, bouncy 90's blowouts, old school vintage Hollywood waves and classic, simple upstyles with lots of volume and clean lines. I am also easily able to create a more modern twist on that too, so whether you’re inspired by Brigette Bardot or Sabrina Carpenter’s hair for your big day, I got you.
When I’m not doing hair you’ll find Daisie & Me cruising the winding forest roads back home to our mountain house, growing food at home and hanging out with family and friends over endless cups of tea. The hopeless romantic in me can’t get enough of bingeing Jane Austen TV and film adaptations and I also love to crochet cute amigurumi characters and clothes.

Address: 223 Given Terrace, Paddington QLD 4064 (behind Flannery's, entrance on Martha Street) - Open by appointment only.

Welcome to the sun-drenched and warm Paddington Studio, the home of Daisie & Me! This serene and luxurious space is not a hair salon - the studio is designed to resemble a private, exclusive vintage boudoir, serving one client at a time. It's just you and Daisie & Me (and perhaps your bestie, partner, mother of the bride, or maid of honour). As we are not a full-service salon bustling with a team of stylists, you won't have to share the space with other clients. The studio is free from typical salon noises—no ringing phones, blasting hairdryers, or distracting chatter—just our carefully selected playlist. It's a tranquil space dedicated entirely to you, especially on the most significant day of your life.

Upon arrival, park in your reserved client space, connect to our Wi-Fi, and savor a delicious French press coffee or a floral tea amidst the studio's peaceful ambiance. Settle into the chair, enveloped in a white satin robe to protect your attire, and you'll really start to feel like a bride. Indulge in sweets and snacks while sharing your hair aspirations with us. After crafting your ideal hairstyle, explore our exquisite collection of hair jewelry and accessories, available for purchase to perfect your look. Many items are unique, handmade, or locally produced, alongside everyday options.

The Paddington Studio is also a haven for neurodivergent individuals who may find traditional salons overwhelming. We understand because we feel the same!

Due to our unique ability to customise the studio to your needs during your visit, please reach out and call, text or email with any requests so that accommodations can be made.
