About Harpo Hair

Welcome to Harpo Hair, a boutique hair salon in Brighton, Melbourne, celebrating 10 years of gorgeous blow waves, vibrant colours, creamy blondes, and trendsetting styles. Founded by local entrepreneur Posey Broomhall in 2014, Harpo Hair began as a cozy one-woman salon and has grown into two buzzing locations, known for delivering a personalised, luxurious experience.

Our skilled stylists specialise in signature blow waves, the latest hair trends, precision cuts, and advanced colour techniques – from traditional foils and balayage to bold transformations – ensuring every client leaves feeling refreshed and confident. Harpo Hair’s friendly, family-style atmosphere is all about making you feel at home, with stylish interiors and a warm approach that make us one of Brighton’s favourite salons.

We’re also passionate about nurturing our hairdressing talent, from our senior stylists to our apprentices. Posey loves seeing her team thrive and considers them part of the Harpo family. Amanda, one of the first apprentices to complete her training at Harpo Hair seven years ago, is now a part-owner. Posey and Amanda lead our hands-on training program, helping team members grow their skills in a supportive environment.

Harpo Hair partners with top brands like L’Oreal Professional, Kevin Murphy, K18, and Kerastase, and we stock ELEVEN Australia for fresh, fun haircare options.

Come experience Harpo Hair, Brighton’s go-to salon for style, colours, and exceptional service. Whether it’s a blow wave, colour refresh, or a complete new look, we’re here to make you look and feel amazing!

Posey

Posey has been working in hair salons honing her skills since she was 14 years old, but always had the dream of owning her own. After winning ‘Apprentice of the Year’ in 2009, she knew her next goal would be working towards her lifelong goal of opening up her perfect salon – a salon in which the little things matter and customers come first.

Posey opened her first salon located on Hampton Street in Brighton in February 2014, which focused heavily on stocking the best brands in the industry and continuously training her staff to be up to date with industry trends and techniques. However, the biggest focus of the salon for Posey was ensuring that customers felt a little bit of luxury every time they visited. It is this passion for her customers which has enables Posey to open her second salon in 2017, located on Were Street, Brighton.

Posey specialises in both colouring and cutting and believes in constant education to ensure our clients get the best experience possible by truly understanding cutting edge techniques and trends. From the moment you walk in the door, to the moment you leave Posey’s number one priority is that you not only have great hair, but that you have enjoyed every element of your experience leaving relaxed and rejuvenated.
