At Studio Vela, we create effortlessly beautiful hair through personalised colour, precision cutting and premium extensions. Every appointment is thoughtfully tailored, balancing expert technique with an experience that feels calm, personal and completely your own.
Studio Vela is a space where beautiful hair and a considered experience come together. From the moment you arrive, every detail is designed to help you slow down, feel at ease and enjoy time that’s entirely yours. We believe the way you feel throughout your appointment is just as important as the hair you leave with.
At Studio Vela, we price every appointment around you — your hair, your goals, and what’s needed to get you there. That means pricing can vary from stylist to stylist and client to client, so the prices listed below are a guide only. If you’d like an exact quote before booking, we offer consultations for $50, which is fully redeemable against your appointment if you go ahead (non-refundable if an appointment isn’t booked).
Every lightening package is fully inclusive, your lift, a custom toner, gloss, haircut, blow dry and style are all part of the price. Simply choose the level of brightness you’re after, and we’ll take care of the rest.
Every haircut at Studio Vela includes a relaxing shampoo, conditioning treatment and scalp massage, finished with a blow dry and style. If you’re after layers, a full blow out, or you have extra long or thick hair, please select the 90 minute option to allow enough time to achieve your result.
Our regrowth and toner services cover the colour work only, so please add on a haircut or blow dry when booking to complete your look. Choose from a root touch-up, a regrowth with toner, a refreshing gloss, or an all-over colour, depending on what your hair needs.
A wash, blow dry and style to leave you polished and ready for whatever’s next — whether that’s a special occasion or just a good hair day.
Our keratin smoothing treatment is designed to relax waves and reduce frizz, not for a permanent straighten, leaving you with smoother, more manageable hair for up to 4 months. Please note this treatment can’t be booked on the same day as a colour service — it needs to be booked at least a week before or after to protect your results. Choose the option that matches your hair length, from short to long.
Hair extensions are the easiest way to add length, volume and thickness to your natural hair. Pricing shown is for application only — your hair will be quoted and ordered in at your consultation, which is required before booking so we can colour match and recommend the best option for you.
Not sure which service is right for you, or after an exact quote before committing? Book a colour or extension consultation and we’ll talk through your hair, your goals, and the best way to get there. The $50 fee is fully redeemable against your appointment if you go ahead, but is non-refundable if an appointment isn’t booked.
I leave with my hair feeling so soft and healthy and she always does exactly what I am asking. Could never go to anyone else after going to her, she is amazing.
Grace is absolutely incredible with my hair. The service is impeccable. She is highly skilled, shows genuine care, and is very professional.
I felt genuinely cared for - not just as a client, but as a person. She took the time to really listen to what i wanted, gave honest and thoughtful advice, and made sure i was comfortable throughout the entire appointment. the attention to detail, patience, and kindness were truly appreciated. Its rare to find someone who combines great technical skill with such a warm, empathetic approach.
Hi, I’m Grace, the founder of Studio Vela. After moving to the Gold Coast in 2023, I opened a small home salon that quickly grew into something much bigger than I ever imagined.
