The Cutting Division

About The Cutting Division

The Cutting Division operates as Newcastle's innovative collective of independent freelance hair stylists, housed within the stylish Muster Point building on Maitland Road. This unique salon model brings together five talented professionals who each run their own micro-businesses under one beautifully designed roof. Each stylist brings distinct expertise to the collective. Tahlia Callagher specialises in personalised cuts and dimensional colours, particularly excelling at creating perfect blonde tones. Janice Escano focuses on wash-and-wear styles, textured cuts, and flawless bobs. Renee Walkom combines wedding hair artistry with textured cuts and bold colour work. Sam creates lived-in colour effects while delivering precision cuts, and Hannah Perrin stands out as the go-to specialist for curly hair and shag cuts. The salon's custom-designed space blends high-end style with everyday comfort, featuring luxe furniture and thoughtful layouts that support each stylist's independent practice. This freelance model means each professional sets their own prices, selects their preferred high-quality products, and manages their own booking systems. Currently, all stylists have closed their books to new clients, reflecting the high demand for their services. When booking opens, clients contact stylists directly through their individual profiles. The salon's image-friendly policy welcomes showcasing new styles on social media with client permission.
