Formal & Event Hair Styling

Originally from Sweden, Alina joined Luxe a couple of years ago and quickly established herself as one of the salon’s blonde specialists.

Her colour repertoire spans bright Scandinavian blondes, softer suede tones and warm, sun-kissed Australian lived-in colour. Her understanding of modern colouring techniques allows her to tailor blonde to complexion, lifestyle and desired maintenance level rather than treating blonde as a single look.

Alina is also a specialist in hair extensions and a favourite for formal-event styling, making her an excellent choice for clients wanting glamorous length, volume and colour.

Luke’s history with Luxe goes back to the salon’s beginnings, when he was one of the original stylists working alongside Reuben at Chatswood Chase. After time away working in high-end salons and the creative world of theatre, he has returned to Luxe with an even broader styling portfolio.

Highly skilled in both modern and traditional cutting, Luke is also exceptional in classic highlighting techniques and increasingly sought after for grey-blending transformations.

His work balances technical precision with creativity, from highly wearable cuts through to glamorous styling for events and special occasions.

Patrick brings almost three decades of hairdressing experience to the salon, including international training in New York and Germany and 15 years as part of the Luxe team.

His infectious personality has helped him build an exceptionally loyal clientele, with some clients planning appointments many months in advance.

Erin began her career within Luxe’s education program, training as an apprentice under Reuben before developing into one of the salon’s most creative and technically accomplished stylists.

Her colour work ranges from seamless balayage and precision foiling through to vivid and creative colour. She continually evolves her techniques and has trained with industry leaders across both cutting and colouring.

Erin is also highly regarded for formal and editorial styling and has experience working behind the scenes at fashion shows and weddings.

Nas joined Luxe as an apprentice after arriving in Australia from Iran and has developed her craft within the salon for more than 13 years.

Her work combines precision cutting and styling with a strong eye for colour. She’s equally comfortable creating classic foils and tint work or working towards something more detailed and transformative, always with a focus on polished, wearable results.

Nas is also particularly sought after for formal and event styling. Her warmth, friendliness and ability to understand what clients want have made her a long-standing favourite with the Luxe clientele.

Known around the salon as Krissie, Kristina joined Luxe as an apprentice under our in-house training program around five years ago and has quickly progressed through the salon’s stylist levels.

Her colour expertise ranges from lived-in and bright blondes through to rich brunettes and more creative colour work. She’s meticulous in her approach and continually invests in education across cutting, styling, colour and smoothing services including Nanoplasty.

Her personal aesthetic is understated, classic and modern — ideal for clients who want their hair to feel current and beautifully finished without looking overdone.

Bella joined Luxe towards the end of her apprenticeship and, within her first nine months, has already developed a strong following — particularly among the salon’s younger clientele.

She has a natural talent for foiling and bonding, with lived-in balayage becoming one of her signature looks. She’s also developed a beautiful eye for formal styling and is a popular choice for school formals and special occasions.

Curly hair is another area close to Bella’s heart. Having curly, textured hair herself, she understands many of the challenges her curly-haired clients experience and has undertaken several specialist curly-hair courses to continue building her expertise.
