About Us
Michael Strugnell
With over 35 years of experience, Michael Strugnell is a highly respected stylist known for his precision cutting and timeless, natural styles. He was the owner-operator of Strugnell Cole Hairdressing, a salon widely recognised for its quality and creative leadership in the industry.
Michael began his career under the mentorship of Wendy Iles — now the internationally renowned founder of Iles Formula — who gave him a strong, Vidal Sassoon–based foundation that he has continued to refine and evolve over the years. He also gained valuable experience at the iconic Shibui Hairdressing, where his technical skills and eye for detail were further honed.
Clients love Michael not just for his talent, but for his genuine, down-to-earth nature and quick sense of humour. Appointments with him are relaxed, personal, and always filled with great conversation — which is why he enjoys an exceptionally loyal client base, many of whom book up to a year in advance to secure time with him.
Michael is available for appointments on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.
