Mittagong’s Top 10 Hair Extension Technicians & Specialists

The Profile

The Hidden Hare - Hair Wellness operates as a calm, spa-like salon that pairs precision extension work with a relaxing treatment space and a retail shelf of professional brands such as Aveda and Pure Fiji. The environment is designed to feel like an escape so clients relax during technical appointments.

The Hidden Hare structures extension visits around careful pre-install matching of tone and texture, a practice the team uses to reduce visible joins and help additions sit naturally through everyday movement and styling. Appointments routinely include product and aftercare conversations so clients leave with a clear maintenance plan.

The Hidden Hare also supports long-term wear through an on-site shop and scheduled follow-ups, selling recommended home products and gift vouchers while encouraging return visits to preserve results. That combined offering creates a service rhythm where installation, retail guidance and aftercare appointments work together to keep extensions seamless.

Hair @ The Regal operates as a small, appointment-only boutique that prioritises privacy and one-to-one consultations, offering a quieter salon rhythm than busier street-front shops.
