As soon as guests crossed Merthyr Road, a grinning Luke emerged from a cascade of bold, colourful florals spilling from the sleek black wall panels of his new salon. Shampoo basins, repurposed as ice buckets, brimmed with Taittinger, setting an instant buzz: this was both familiar and wholly new.
The crooner’s smooth vocals drifted through the air, creating a relaxed vibe as friends, family and loyal clients mingled in the stunning surrounds of Luke Reynolds Hairdressing. Conversations flowed about favourite stylists, Luke’s tenacity over 18 years, and the salon’s place as a New Farm institution.
Luke’s heartfelt gratitude for the community he’d built was electric, and the love for his team—who have shared every early-morning start and late-night blow-dry—could be felt in every corner of the room.
Local legends Grape & Grazing treated guests to an astonishing food and beverage experience, topped off by an oyster and caviar bar that proved incredibly popular. Every inch of the salon was styled to perfection. By night’s end, it was clear—Luke Reynolds Hairdressing hadn’t just outgrown its old home; it had been reborn, and the entire New Farm community celebrated alongside.
