Verified Reviewer | Belrose, New South WalesNo happy with a wig!
I was thinning around the top so, I went to AD/hair in Parramatta, I wanted to regrow/thicken my hair but I was told that its too late to re grow and sold me on the strand by strand without any closer look at my hair or sclap, I really wanted the Lasar treatment. So I went for the $6.500 hair replacement,"a glued on wig" now because my real hair keeps growing under the wig I am forever getting itchy/ cradle cap and have to keep taking it off.. they should of told me up front about all that, now they say to come every 2 weeks or so for service at $80 to $100..Need help.
- Unprofessional misleading poor results unresponsive staff
- Costly treatment
Let the company propose a solution
Doesn't look like professional. Really frustated
I did a laser therapy for a year. Not a SINGLE HAIR grow back instead just wasted money, time etc.
Appointment never starts on time though you are present there before time.
More frustrated yesterday as I took day off and on time for pre booked appointment to consult the future process and the person was not even in, took a leave and not even informed about that to me. What a careless attitude towards customer.
No professionalism at all. Really frustrated.
Hope someone will go through this and try to improve customer service better than now.

Advanced Hair Studio Hair Piece Review from Melbourne, Victoria
Utter ***!!!!!!! $6000+ later and ten days after having the hair piece that will last soooo long, according to the sales man (and that's all he is, an obvious sales man) it completely came off .
We are continually told its my husbands fault despite him following exact instructions, it looks like a cheap piece of *** and it's now been 4 months and no one will help him or listen to him. They even made excuses when it was under the 3 month warranty. I WILL be taking this further , the whole 'wig' came off again today COMPLETELY and I am fed up. We won't be putting up with this *** any longer.
All they've done is take our money, which judging by many other reviews is normal for this company. They can expect to hear from us.
Advanced Hair Studio Australia - ADVANCED HAIR STUDIO - COMPLETE DODGY BUSINESS
After talking with a Chris for multiple days as I was "wanting" to receive compensation for my $3000 treatment I never received, I wanted to see what they would say and do regarding this matter. Of course they lied, saying that I completed multiple treatments when I only ever received a couple and wanted to cancel after that. No proper evidence was provided, although he seemed to be completely certain of my case. Then questioning the legitimacy of their treatment, Chris didn't know much at all about hair regrowth. Claiming a Professor at Monash University backs up their treatment scientifically. I found this Professor by calling Monash. I will not give names. But after a short chat, he mentioned that nothing was ever published and that the research was never tested on a large enough sample size to determine anything. He also mentioned that AHS wanted to keep this a bit of a "secret". Basically, there is no conclusive evidence that what these guys do is scientifically proven. In fact it seems like no scientific research whatsoever has been put into their treatments. If they claim to have research and studies, you should ask them for reports and findings that their treatments have been successful in LEGITIMATE and LARGE ACADEMIC studies. Make sure they are well known sources and not FABRICATED. I doubt they will provide anything that is LEGITIMATE and confirms there mammoth prices.
Logically speaking laser does not help hair regrowth, laser is in fact used to BURN hair follicles by cosmetic laser clinics to STOP hair regrowth. After stating this FACT to Chris, he immediately spun a lie that they used "cold" and "low-level" laser which no such method exists. Nothing of this nature has been proven to prevent hair loss and promote hair regrowth. The logic does not even apply to this so called cold or low level method, as laser is energy and decrease its level would not somehow magically have a REVERSE effect on hair follicles. The laser is used by them solely to over price their treatments and milk innocent consumers of their money. Please go on Google scholar as search Laser Hair Treatment of other treatments that AHS conducts. Everything points in the other direction.
As for their pills and shampoos and serums. I know a family business providing the exact same serums sourced naturally from a overseas location, for 120$ for 3 bottles which is about 3-4 months of treatment. All natural ingredients with NO side effects. Please, before you give these guys any money do your research and speak to your doctor. No doctor has ever recommend AHS or any hair loss clinics because they aren't AHS is not qualified doctors, they are marketers and lawyers just looking to steal your money. This was evident from my meeting with Chris. Completely disregarding my logical arguments as "inaccurate" and offering a laser toy to shut me up without losing any money. These guys don't want to help us, they just want to take our money and shut us up by using Cheap tactics. STAY AWAY. If anyone is interested in launching a campaign against AHS or any other businesses claiming to have miracle results and robbing innocent Australians of their hard earned money, please email me at tolgamulyimm@***.com as I am trying to contact consumer affairs to get these guys out of Australia or at least set up some sort of website that will inform consumers against misleading businesses like these. Thank you.

Verified Reviewer | Saint Kilda, Victoria CountyDon't give your hard earned money to these liars.
Just updating everyone, this has not been resolved. They offered me a half refund, which I declined because I want to spread the truth regarding these liars.
They blocked access to there website while they found some dodgy non conclusive study to show their treatment 'MAYBE" works. Same with ashley and martin. On there adds they show two photos and say "Clearly, it works" and then in small writing put a reference to some "nielsen" study that says it might work.
Please, don't give you money to these scam artists who don't give a *** about your hair. If anything they are setting the hair loss research back decades.
I was 18 and thought I'd just get it early before I STARTED balding. I had just the slightest signs of receding and the slightest signs of thinning on top near the back.
It all sounded promising at AHS. Once I paid my 3000 I sat in some dodgy room and a *** laser was somewhat positioned on my head in what seemed a non planned position. Then I was given all these pills and shampoo with something called serenoa in it which made me nauseas? I immediately knew I had been jibbed and asked for a refund, so I could seek a more professional and natural treatment.
Ofcourse they shut you down and avoid contact with you. So if you want to give your money to people who advertise more then they do research, go right ahead haha! But just know, once you realise what your reading hear is exactly what is happening to you, don't bother asking for your money back. Just be ready to part with that cash before you hand it over lol.
Also, I have NEVER EVER spoke to ANYONE who has reported success from AHS or ashley martin or any of these supposed hair regrowth "professionals". And I know heaps of baldies!!
As I said, they are marketers and lawyers. Not scientists.

Resolved: Advanced Hair Studio Australia - Disappointed and misguided
I was promptly contacted by client relations at AHS and they responded to my concerns immediately and have now resolved my concerns to my full satisfaction.
I went to Advanced Hair Studio in Parramatta (Sydney) in August 2015 for my initial consultation. I met Daniel who described the procedures they had and recommended that I try the Strand by Strand treatment. I was a little hesitant at first because it was a lot of money to spend on this treatment and wanted to discuss this with my wife before making a commitment. Daniel didn't seem happy about this and was telling me to sign the contract, it seemed like he was worried I might change my mind. My wife came into the office and we had a chat about the procedure... at first my wife was skeptical and wanted to ensure this was more about the treatment and not just an opportunity for Advanced Hair to make money. We questioned the price as I had previously gone to another consultant who would continue to send me messages only to reduce the price. We mentioned to Daniel that we are very interested in the treatment but only want to have to pay what we need to. Daniel understood but we still got the 'you will need to sign up today to get this price'. My wife was skeptical however I told her that it was something I wanted to get done. We asked Daniel a number of questions prior to the treatment, such as the procedure and aftercare. Daniel made himself sound like he was a doctor and very experienced in the procedure, however after the 'sale', he was very much non-existent when I actually went into to get the procedure done.
Daniel made it seem that it was a very simple procedure and we asked about aftercare and whether we had to come back to Advanced Hair Studios, Daniel mentioned that they have professional hairdressers who will look after me as they are more experienced however we could still go to my regular hairdresser to get my hair cut if I didn't want to come to them...later I found that this was not actually possible.
On the day of my procedure I saw Daniel for about 5 minutes he told me that I would need to come back the next day to ensure the procedure worked. I was so surprised when the hairdresser was the one who completed the entire procedure (I never saw Daniel, the 'salesman' again). I was even more surprised when the top of my head was shaven and a hair piece was stuck to my head...it was at no time during my initial consultation that I was told this. I had come this far and there really was no choice...essentially I paid for a very expensive hair piece.
After it was applied, I was asked to not touch it or wash it until I came back in the next day for a check up. When I went in the next day, I saw another hairdresser who had no idea of any of the conversations I had with Daniel or the previous lady who applied the hair piece. Daniel once again did not complete the check up...all the check up was, was to show me how to use the products and sell me more things...I ended up spending another $80 on hair products as I was told that if I was to use any other product on my hair it will void my warranty. So essentially I had no choice...another thing Daniel failed to mention in the initial consultation. It was also at this appointment that I found out that every time I came back to the hairdresser she would remove the hair piece and re-shave my hair and just apply it again. This was another thing that Daniel did not mention...I am not sure how I was supposed to do that at my regular hairdresser. It was all a sneaky tactic to get me to sign the contract. Not once was my hair checked to make sure it was applied correctly in my follow up appointment.
My hair came loose the next morning and started to lift, I made an appointment and had to go back in...the hairdresser just simply reapplied it...once again no sign of Daniel.
I found the hair piece to be extremely uncomfortable and hard at the back of my head, it was really hard for me to sleep properly and it started to lift again after a few days. I was told by the hairdresser that the adhesive they use is so strong that even if I tugged strongly on my hair it wouldn't come off (not that I tried this).
After a week, I couldn't handle it anymore and I had no confidence whatsoever in going back to Advanced Hair Studios so I just made the decision to try and remove the hair piece myself, which I did. I wore a cap and visited my hairdresser (very much embarrassed) and asked him to just trim all my hair off. I now pretty much have a buzz cut which was extremely difficult to deal with...I didn't invest so much money into my hair and appearance to end up with my current hairstyle.
Overall, I am extremely disappointed with my whole experience with Advanced Hair Studio in Parramatta (Sydney) and how I was misled to believe this product was something more than it was...at the end of the day it was a very very expensive hair piece which I am now still paying for.
So if you are after a very expensive wig and ongoing expenses then by all means visit Advanced Hair Studios...otherwise please just save your money

Advanced Hair Studio - Strand By Strand Hair Review from Baulkham Hills, New South Wales
This company lied and cheated me about strand by strand..I paid $7000.00 and they stuck a wig on my head...I was shocked !!
Advanced Hair Studio Australia - Advanced Hair Studio - Hair Treatment Review from Curtis Island, Queensland
My Name is Anthony and my experience with Advanced hair was nothing short of a disaster, I was informed that my natural hair was to far gone to be salvaged with any other treatment than surgical or strand by strand. Strand by strand what a joke, shave your head and stick a carpet like wig to the top of your head which comes loose with a bit of exercise and heavy perspiration. Not to mention the obvious fact that you are wearing a wig/hairpiece. In no way was this a natural or near to natural look for $5,000. Then I was told that the second unit would be far better for an additional $2,500, being a gluten for punishment I stuck with it and was again severely disappointed. I believed this company was a market leader in this field from everything I was told during consultation and sales.
To add to this the Newcastle studio where I attended lost/sacked the manager and then lost the stylist leaving all of the clientele without support with little information.
I am very disappointed with the Advanced Hair company, their rubbish products and there sales tactics. They knowingly sell below average products to trusting clients for more than double the prices that other professional businesses in this field sell far more superior products that actually look and perform as stated by them.
I have now started growing my own natural hair back after seeking advice from someone that is a medical leader in hair replacement and therapies.
Thanks for nothing Advanced Hair

Complete lies on website.

They show Shane Warne as if he has had Surgery - He wears a rug.
State that they have 4 patented procedures where they have none.
State that they are the largest in the world they may slide in at number 10.
State they have treated 10,000 celebrities they got warned about this in 2014 and yet they still do it.
State they have treated over 1,000,000 people where that figure is less than 500,000.
If you need an out for a contract in India then mention these facts and they can't deny it.

APPOINTMENT ISSUE
Hi , I`m nathan, Advance hair studio in Sydney doesn`t have enough staff . Whenever I call to book an appointment 6 weeks before they always say that they don`t have available slot to put me in .
I couldn`t understand why these guys are always say that we are busy. Six weeks prior means a lot of time . very Bad!!! .
And there is no quality in the systems which they are making money. Too expensive and I don`t recommend anyzone because its not natural hair and it wont grow .
The advertisement in which they are promoting themselves is not at all matching with the results. NO GUARANTEE!!!!
