About Our Mentone Hair Salon Coastal Calm,
Considered Craft.

Salon Ayre is Mentone’s newest boutique hair salon, a brand-new space built around quiet luxury, expert technique, and genuine care.

A Shared Vision,
Thirty Years in the Making

Salon Ayre was created from a shared vision between two women who have spent over 30 years each in the hair industry. For Emily and Sarah, this was never just about opening a salon, it was about creating something meaningful.

They are a perfect balance. A natural yin and yang. Emily is the creative force, expressive, intuitive, and deeply passionate about her craft. Sarah is the grounding presence, thoughtful, perceptive, and quietly powerful, bringing clarity and a sense of calm that allows everything to flow with intention.

Together, they create more than just beautiful hair.
They create an experience.

At the heart of Salon Ayre is a team that has grown together over many years, a group of talented individuals who share the same passion and genuine care for every client who walks through the door. More than colleagues, they are a close-knit team, and that energy is felt in every appointment.

Salon Ayre is a space where exceptional hair meets genuine care, where every client feels seen, heard, and completely at ease.

Beyond the salon, their vision extends into the Bayside community. Emily and Sarah are passionate about supporting local businesses, collaborating with like-minded people, and giving back wherever they can. Inspired by the coast, the space is designed to feel calm, light, and quietly refined.

This is the space they dreamed of for years. And now, it’s here.

Emily Sarah

Two stylists, one vision, a salon they’d want to visit themselves.

Emily is the spark; Sarah is the grounding.

Between them, more than sixty combined years in the industry, and complementary instincts. Emily leads with intuitive colour work and a vibrant, expressive presence on the floor. Sarah leads with considered client care and the steady, perceptive rhythm that holds the day-to-day together.

Salon Ayre is what happens when they meet on the floor, craft and warmth, in equal measure.

A close-knit team. Decades of combined experience.

Our Philosophy

Three things shape every appointment at Salon Ayre, and you’ll feel them the moment you walk in.

Considered Craft

Every Detail, Deliberate

Hair is technical, we treat it that way. Expect precise consultations, tailored formulations, and finishes that hold long after you leave the chair.

Coastal Calm

A Moment That’s Yours

Soft light, quiet space, and time built into every appointment. We designed Salon Ayre to feel like a breath out, not another item on the list.

Genuine Care

Real People, Real Conversations

We want to know your hair, your routine, and what actually works in your life. No upsell scripts, just honest advice and hair you’ll love living with.

What to Expect

Every visit begins with a proper consultation, no rushed intakes, no assumptions. We take the time to understand your hair history, your lifestyle, and the look you’re after, then build the service around it.

Our stylists work across three tiers so you can choose the experience level that suits your budget, without compromise on the finish. New to the salon? Mention it when you book and we’ll pair you with the right chair.
