Koda QVB

CBD

Helmed by Diane Gorgievski, Koda Cutters recently opened up their Sydney CBD salon, making it the perfect location for booking a post-work blow dry or styling session.

However, if you're wanting a little more TLC, try booking their luxurious ‘Hair Facial’ service, to deep clean your scalp and de-stress your soul.
