The house story
A slower kind of luxury.
The studio story
Beauty is not rushed.
Warm, considered and effortlessly sophisticated, The Cut House welcomes everyone — babies in their first chair, teenagers finding their style, parents returning season after season. The atmosphere is unhurried and personal; a place for conversation, reflection and the kind of connection that only comes with time.
Whether you arrive for the first time or have been part of Justine's journey for more than three decades, you are met with the same intention and care. At The Cut House, trends are interpreted with restraint, and longevity — in style, in relationships, in craft — is the ultimate luxury.
Meet Justine Irish
For more than 35 years, hairdressing has been my passion, my craft and an important part of who I am.
I began my career in 1991 and have since worked across salon hairdressing, television, film and magazine productions. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of styling many well-known personalities, including Kylie Minogue, Molly Ringwald, Bridie Carter, Rachael Carpani, Michala Banas, Myles Pollard, Jessica Napier, Aaron Jeffery, Dame Kiri Te Kanawa and Ben Mendelsohn.
In 2005, I became the proud owner of The Cut House. Now celebrating 21 years, the salon has grown into a welcoming boutique destination in the heart of North Adelaide—known for its beautiful cottage frontage, warm atmosphere and personalised approach to hair.
As a Senior Stylist, Cutting Technician and qualified Certificate IV hairdresser, I bring decades of experience to every appointment. I have also spent many years training and mentoring other hairdressers, sharing the knowledge and skills I have developed throughout my career.
For me, beautiful hair has always been about more than just a haircut. It is about listening, understanding each client and creating a style that makes them feel confident, comfortable and completely looked after.
I am incredibly proud of everything The Cut House has become over the past 21 years, and I look forward to welcoming you into the salon.
