Your Salon Team
Tucked away in the heart of Lumsden, Willow Society is a boutique salon built on creativity, community, and care - where every appointment feels like a catch-up with friends (who just happen to be really good with hair).
Meet the team behind the chairs who make it all happen.
Gráinne – Senior Stylist
With over two decades in the hair industry, Gráinne brings a wealth of experience, creativity, and heart to every appointment.
She opened Willow Society in 2023 with a vision: to create a boutique salon where clients feel seen, supported, and a little bit fabulous from the moment they walk in. Her passion for great hair is matched only by her love of education and building genuine connections.
Whether you’re here for a complete transformation or just a touch-up and a chat, Gráinne’s focus is always on helping you feel your best.
Willow Society has grown quickly into a vibrant space, thanks to a shared love of artistry, good vibes, and a damn good blow wave.
