A Newport institution built on honesty, expertise and the simple belief that everyone deserves great hair.
"We started with one chair, one intention: do the work properly and let it speak for itself."
Salon Marni opened its doors in Newport more than a decade ago with a clear purpose — to bring genuine hairdressing craft to Melbourne's western suburbs. Not a franchise. Not a quick-turnaround volume salon. A real studio, with real stylists who take the time to understand exactly what you need.
The western suburbs of Melbourne have always deserved better than the choices available. We built something different: a calm, professional space where every client is treated like a priority, not a number on the booking sheet.
We've grown steadily over the years — not because we chased growth, but because our clients keep coming back, and they keep telling their friends. Word of mouth has always been our best advertisement, and we're proud that our reputation in Newport speaks for itself.
Every appointment begins with a proper conversation. We listen before we do anything else — because getting it right the first time is worth the extra five minutes.
We book appointment times that allow us to do each service properly. You'll never feel like you're being moved through on a conveyor belt. Your time with us is your time.
If a particular style won't suit your hair type or face shape, we'll tell you. We'd rather give you something that works than something that looks great for a day and falls apart after that.
Colour science and cutting technique evolve constantly. Our team attends regular training and education to stay at the front of the craft. What worked ten years ago isn't always the best approach today.
Our stylists are the heart of Salon Marni. Each one brings a genuine passion for the craft and a personal commitment to making sure you leave feeling brilliant.
With over 15 years in the industry, Marni founded the salon with one goal: to create a space where the craft of hairdressing was treated with the respect it deserves. She specialises in colour, balayage and complex transformations.
Sophie's eye for tone and depth is unmatched. She trained with some of Melbourne's top colourists and brings an exceptional level of precision to every foil, toner and colour service. Regulars book months in advance.
Bianca is our extension specialist and women's stylist. Her calm chairside manner and sharp technical skill make her a client favourite — particularly for those wanting a seamless transition to longer, fuller hair.
They live in every appointment, every conversation and every finish that walks out our door.
We charge fairly, we're honest about what's achievable, and we don't oversell services you don't need. Newport is a community — and communities run on trust. We take that seriously.
We deliberately keep our appointment books manageable. We'd rather see fewer clients in a day and give each one our full attention than rush through a packed schedule. Quality is not negotiable.
Not everyone has an hour each morning to style their hair. We design cuts and colour with your actual lifestyle in mind — not just how it looks leaving the salon, but how it works for you every day.
The salon experience matters. We've created a calm, welcoming environment where you can take a breath, enjoy the process and leave feeling genuinely looked after — not just satisfied with the result.
The best way to understand Salon Marni is to experience it. We'd love to see you in the chair.
