Lida Harsent

With over two decades of experience in the hair and beauty industry, I first trained as a hairdresser and later became the owner and lead stylist at the highly successful salon, Hair Fiction, in the Czech Republic. After moving to Sydney, Australia in 2012, I moved into freelance work, bringing my expertise to TV commercials, photo shoots, and the bridal industry.

Renowned for my innovative approach to styling and colouring, I have built a reputation for creating looks that blend artistry with practicality. My creative ethos is rooted in understanding that each client is unique, and my goal is to bring out their individuality while enhancing their natural beauty. I believe that great hair and makeup should feel effortless but make a powerful impact. Whether working on a set or with a bride, I approach each project with the same level of attention to detail.

My work with brides involves not only delivering stunning results on their special day but also collaborating months in advance to ensure every detail aligns with their vision. I love the process of consultation—working with clients to explore their personal style, preferences, and event details to craft a look that feels both timeless and personal.

Hairdressing is my first love, and I currently operate a mobile service that brings salon-quality hair care directly to my clients. Whether it’s precision cutting, creative colouring, hair extensions, or styling for special occasions, I use my strong creative skills to craft bespoke looks. My philosophy is that hair is a form of self-expression, and my job is to help people feel confident, empowered, and uniquely themselves.
