ELAINE GILLESPIE

Owner/Master Stylist

With over 30 years of experience in the hair industry, I’m passionate about helping every client look and feel their absolute best. Throughout my career, I’ve built a reputation for creating personalised looks that complement each individual’s lifestyle, face shape, and hair type while
ensuring they leave the salon feeling confident and empowered.

I specialise in precision cutting, lived-in colour, blondes, razor cutting, curly hair, and effortless styling, taking the time to truly listen to my clients and tailor every appointment to their goals. Education is also important to me, so I love teaching clients how to recreate their salon look at home and keep their hair healthy between visits.

One of my greatest passions is working with curly hair, having trained in the Curly Girl Method, as well as using my signature razor-cutting techniques to create movement, softness, and shape that are easy to maintain. Whether it's a complete transformation, a subtle refresh, or styling for a special event, I believe beautiful hair should feel as good as it looks.

As the proud owner of Graphix Hair Studio in Mona Vale, I’ve created a warm, welcoming salon where genuine relationships matter. Many of my clients have been with me for decades, and I’m incredibly grateful to lead a talented team dedicated to exceptional service, creativity, and making
every visit a positive experience.

For me, hairdressing is about more than hair—it's about building confidence, creating connections, and helping people leave the salon feeling like the very best version of themselves.
