The first time ever, I’m turning the chair around.
One night. One live room. Hairdressers everywhere.
For the first time ever, hairdressers finally get the chair. I’ll be there. The guests will be there. Hairdressers across the world will be there. Together, we’re telling the hilarious, heartbreaking, completely unhinged truth about this strange and magical way you spend your life.
Nobody is teaching you to foil faster.
No six figures before lunch. No personal-brand sermon while you’re still cleaning tint bowls. No one talking at you like you haven’t already learned a thousand things the hard way.
This is the night I talk about the funny, brutal and beautiful things no one outside this industry could possibly understand.
The stories only hairdressers understand.
I know you hear about engagements before families do. I know you hold secrets, grief, breakups, births, illnesses, reinventions and sometimes a final goodbye.
You make people feel like themselves again, while quietly carrying a thousand lives home with you.
For once, the hairdresser gets the chair.
You belong here if you are any of these people...
At the beginning, in the middle, long retired, still hanging on, completely obsessed or quietly wondering whether you have anything left. There is a chair here for you.
I know you.
Eerily well.
If any of these feel less like jokes and more like someone has been watching you through the salon window, you are absolutely in the right place.
You call three almonds, half a cold coffee and inhaling something over the tint bowls a lunch break.
You have talked to humans for nine straight hours. When you get home, nobody ask a follow-up question. Nobody breathe too conversationally.
No, you didn’t. There were bowls, towels, sweeping, messages, notes, tomorrow, and someone who said, “Just one quick thing.”
Engagements before families. Pregnancies before partners. Breakups, diagnoses, affairs, reinventions and final appointments nobody knew were final.
You remember a formula from 2014, a fringe regret from 2009 and every client’s children. You do not remember why you walked into the dispensary.
Those tiny motherfuckers appear in places that feel anatomically impossible. You understand. Normal people never will.
After everything, you still get a ridiculous little spark when someone looks in the mirror and becomes themselves again.
You are tired, disheartened or wondering where the love went. Come sit with people who understand. You may just find a piece of it again.
A proper global show. Funny. Moving. Musical. Unexpected. Nothing like another seminar.
Stories that will make you snort-laugh. Conversations that may crack you open. Hairdressers from across the world, extraordinary guests, live moments, music and a few surprises I am absolutely not giving away. This is your industry telling its own story.
at the bits nobody outside the industry could understand.
in the stories you usually carry quietly.
prouder, reconnected and much less alone.
then walk into the Circle community backstage rooms with hairdressers from all over the world.
One part of this show began as a completely unreasonable idea.
The kind of reach-for-the-stars thing you almost don’t say aloud in case someone sensible hears you. Well... it’s real. I’m keeping it secret until the show, because some moments deserve to happen live, not be flattened into another announcement post.
You’ll know when the chair turns around.
Different days. Different time zones.
Same chair. Same live moment.
If you can possibly make the live, come live. This isn’t a pre-recorded webinar dressed up as an event. I’ll be there. The guests will be there. The hairdressers will be there. The chat, stories, surprises and things that happen because we’re all in the same room will only happen once.

Come live if you can. Come on replay if you can’t. Either way, your chair is here.
Your chair puts you inside the first live moment. The replay is your safety net. Then the doors open to the private community so the connection can continue afterwards.
Two seats, because you already know exactly who needs to see this with you.
GET TWO TICKETSFor your salon team, educator crew or up to six people from your group chat.
GET UP TO 6 TICKETS3 hairdressers: One Chair + Bring a Friend = $274
4 hairdressers: two Bring a Friend tickets = $354
5 or 6 hairdressers: Pull Up a Row = A$447 AUD
ONE CHAIR = 1 hairdresser. BRING A FRIEND = 2 hairdressers. PULL UP A ROW = up to 6 hairdressers. After a group purchase, I’ll collect every attendee’s name and email so each person receives their own live access, reminders, Circle invitation, replay and badge.
YOUR PLACE IN THE LIVE SHOW • Full replay safety net • Founding Member badge • Entry to the private Hairdressing Unhinged community afterwards
You were here when the chair first turned around.
Every person who buys a ticket receives the Founding Member badge. It says you were part of the first ever Hairdressing Unhinged live global virtual show and the community it began.
People on the early email list who buy inside the private 72 hour window receive the permanent Original Chair badge as well. When the private 72 hours closes, Original Chair closes with it. It will never be issued again.
It’s essentially your backstage pass.
Walk in exactly as you are. Introduce yourself or quietly look around first. Meet hairdressers across every age, country and corner of the industry. Find the people who make you think, Thank God, it wasn’t just me.
Your place to vent, ask the questions you cannot ask anywhere else, share the ridiculous moments, get real support and never pretend you have it all together.
A home for the hilarious, heartbreaking and unbelievable stories only hairdressers know to be true. Share yours, listen to theirs and help us remember the lives lived around the chair.
Inside Circle you will find the backstage rooms, the show replay, ongoing conversations, places to vent and tell your stories, future guest drops and first dibs on new shows, offers and strange little things I build next. Kind people. Confidential stories. No pitching, posturing or tearing each other down.
These aren’t testimonials.
These are the reasons this room needs to exist.
“Oh my God, what an epiphany. I am now in my 55th year, and I thought I was the only one struggling with all this crap around in my head.”
“I can’t tell you how happy I am to be part of the most marvellous sisterhood from across the globe. You are magical.”
“You are creating a community of hairdressers, and we all get it. Keep doing what you’re doing.”
“I’ve been a stylist for 41 years. Your posts about losing clients caught my attention. Thank you. Maybe a little unhinged.”
“All of what you’ve said rings so true. The exhaustion and exhilaration at the same time. I wouldn’t have traded it for all the world.”
“I’ve been at it about 38 years. In recent years I’ve added funeral home hair to my résumé. We are blessed to be able to touch so many lives.”
The useful bits.
Is it really live?
Yes. This is one live worldwide show. It begins at 9:00am Monday 5 October in Melbourne/Sydney, which is Sunday 4 October across the UK, Ireland, USA and Canada. Use the international schedule above for your city.
What if I can’t make the live time?
Your ticket includes the replay, so you can watch when real life allows.
Do the multi-seat tickets include anything different?
No, every attendee receives the same complete show, replay and community access. Multi-seat options simply make it easier and better value to bring your people.
What is the refund policy?
Because access and replay details are digital, tickets are generally non-refundable. If something genuinely goes wrong, email me and I’ll treat you like a human.
You will know exactly what to do.
After you book, you will receive full instructions explaining how to join the live virtual show, how to watch the replay and how to enter the private Circle community backstage rooms. Technology being a pain in the arse? Have a question? Email me. A real person will answer you.
EMAIL SAIR: SAIR@SAIRZEE.COM.AUThere are people.
And then there are hairdressers.
Come laugh until you cry, cry because someone finally said it, and remember why this strange, magical work has mattered all along.
