Beaufort Street doesn't stop at the Mount Lawley town centre — it just keeps going. Walk south from the Astor Theatre, past the heritage shopfronts and the plane trees, and it carries you straight down through Highgate without so much as a change of street name. Bureau The Salon is on that same road, at 444 Beaufort St, a little further along than most Mount Lawley locals are used to walking.
We mention this because a lot of our Mount Lawley clients found us exactly that way — on foot, or in the car doing the school run or heading into the city — and hadn't really clocked that Highgate is technically a separate suburb. It is, just: the boundary sits roughly around Walcott Street, but the street itself, and a fair bit of the character, carries straight through.
What Mount Lawley clients actually book
Mount Lawley has a strong heritage housing stock — California bungalows, Federation homes, character weatherboards — and a client base that tends to know exactly what it wants, because it's had the time and the cafes to think about it. In consultation that usually shows up as one of two things: either a very specific reference point, or the opposite — someone who's had the same look for years and wants an honest opinion on what would actually suit a change. Both conversations work better with a proper sit-down consultation than a rushed walk-in; see our FAQ page for how consultations work before you book.
Colour is a big part of it. We're seeing a lot of Mount Lawley clients move away from flat, single-process colour toward dimensional work — balayage, foils, colour correction where a previous colour has grown out unevenly. If that's the situation you're in, our article on what actually happens in a colour correction consultation is worth reading before you come in, because it'll save time in the chair.
Texture and extensions
We also get a fair number of Mount Lawley clients asking about perms — both the wolf spiral and volumizing versions are having a moment — and about extensions, particularly tape-ins for people who want length without the maintenance load of a full weft system. These are genuinely different services with different upkeep, and we'd rather talk you through which one actually suits your hair and your routine than book you in for whichever's requested. We've written up the detail on both: perms in 2026 and what a real extensions consultation covers.
Parking and getting here
If you're driving down from Mount Lawley, Beaufort Street has metered parking and there's side-street parking on the residential streets just off it. It's a straightforward drive, or an easy walk if you'd rather treat it as a warm-up for however long you'll be sitting in the chair. Aftercare product recommendations — System Professional, Nioxin and more — are covered in more detail on our aftercare page once your service is booked.
