L'Artiste Coiffeur is French for "Hair Artist". At Kaitlyn Wagner Hairdressers in Brisbane, hairdressing is more than just a service; it’s an art form.
What makes a great hair colourist? A great hair colourist, like a great artist, can be recognised by how their work makes others feel.
Our philosophy is about understanding you, your desires and how you want to look and feel when you walk out of our salon.
As people want to feel more confident and reassured in their appearance, we strive to create beautiful colours and haircuts, tailored to reveal and enhance your natural beauty. Your colour should always make you look gorgeous, not just your hair. As Coco Chanel said, "The best colour in the world is the one that looks good on you".
Creating luxury, long-lasting, healthy colours is the essence of our hairdressing. Durable, beautiful hair is always built upon a foundation of healthy hair. There is no beauty without health!
At our Brisbane hair salon, every colour service is completely customised. We consider your skin tone, features, lifestyle, and personal style to create a look that feels effortless, individual, and unmistakably you — all while prioritising the long-term health of your hair.
Your stylist will carefully select the most suitable techniques and restorative treatments to ensure your colour is not only beautiful, but also wearable and sustainable. Because how you live — and how you wear your hair — is just as unique as you are.
As one of Brisbane’s premier hair salons, we believe your experience should be as refined as your results. Our salon is a calm, French-inspired sanctuary designed to offer a moment of pause away from the demands of everyday life. From Dyson hairdryers that minimise noise to thoughtfully curated details, every element is designed to promote relaxation.
From the moment you arrive, you’ll be warmly welcomed and invited to unwind with a refreshing drink from our menu. We understand how important your hair is to you, which is why we take the time for an honest, in-depth consultation. Your stylist will listen carefully, offering expert guidance to ensure your expectations are understood — and beautifully exceeded.

After working in some of France’s most prestigious salons, she refined her reputation as an expert in precision cutting and advanced colour.
Driven by creativity and innovation, Kaitlyn was selected to work with Wella as a Digital Ambassador and was named one of their 140 Global Changemakers after winning an international competition.
