Illume Hair Collective was created by Nita and Gabby in May 2025 with one goal - to bring beautiful, effortless hair to Newcastle in a space that feels like home.
We’re a small, boutique salon where every guest is welcomed like an old friend. Our vibe is chill yet luxe - where great hair meets good energy, genuine connection, and a touch of everyday indulgence.
At Illume, it’s all about enhancing your natural beauty, helping you glow with confidence, and leaving you feeling refreshed inside and out.
Welcome to your new hair home.
