What Australian salons charge
Salon keratin treatment prices in Australia.
A professional keratin treatment at an Australian salon costs AUD $300-600 per session. Sydney and Melbourne salons sit at the higher end of that range. Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide are typically AUD $300-450.
Most treatments need repeating every 3-5 months. At AUD $300-600 per session, that is AUD $900-1,800 per year before aftercare products. The irony is that QIQI — the product many Australian salons use — is available for home application at a fraction of the salon cost.

An Australian product
QIQI is Australian-made.
QIQI Hair Controller was developed by Australian chemists and is used by professional salons across Australia and internationally. It is formaldehyde-free, using glyoxylic acid as the active ingredient — which is significant given Australia's strict TGA regulations on salon chemicals.
The same product your Sydney or Melbourne salon charges AUD $400-600 to apply is available for home use. One 150g bottle gives you 3+ treatments on shoulder-length hair — roughly AUD $110 per treatment instead of AUD $300-600.
Nero Hair ships QIQI from our US warehouse in Chicago. Delivery to Australia takes 6-10 business days via USPS Priority Mail International or DHL Express. Prices are listed in GBP at checkout — the AUD conversion is handled automatically by your payment provider.
