Dolls & SailorsUnisex Salon in Annerley, Queensland

Dolls & Sailors brings a refreshingly authentic approach to hair care in Annerley, positioning itself as Queensland's most welcoming space for queer and neurodivergent clients. This unisex salon operates on the simple principle that "hair has no gender," offering completely un-gendered services that focus on individual needs rather than traditional expectations. The team—including Kira (Colour Ghoul), Mia (Chaos Goblin), Em (Owner/Handyman), and Hayden (Mullet Wizard/Barber)—creates an environment where clients can truly be themselves.

Fidget toys are available throughout the space, and they genuinely encourage bringing emotional support companions, whether that's your dog, cat, snake, or even just photos of cute animals. Their hourly pricing structure reflects their inclusive philosophy, with haircuts from senior stylists at $140 per hour, traditional barber cuts from $70, and colour services ranging from $140-160 per hour depending on complexity. The salon's commitment to sustainability shines through their participation in the Sustainable Salons program and hair donation acceptance.

What sets Dolls & Sailors apart is their understanding that getting a haircut can be anxiety-inducing. They provide detailed appointment information upfront and maintain a genuinely welcoming atmosphere where being "awkward" or different isn't just accepted—it's celebrated. Online booking is available, though some stylists currently aren't taking new clients.
