WE MAKE HAIR DREAMS COME TRUE
ABOUT HAIR CANDY
Weβve been providing hair extensions services on the Gold Coast since 2007. Our owner, Shakira, began in a small home salon and grew the business to having three salons across QLD, multiple team members & our own brand of Hair Candy Extensions. We searched high & low to find the best quality hair, best techniques and best product to ensure you get premium service. And - of course - the best team of stylists to bring your hair dreams to life!
