Mid-Year Hair Refresh: Why July is the Best Time to Visit Your Melbourne Barber

As Melbourne settles into the heart of winter and we officially pass the mid-year mark, July is the perfect time to reset your look and plan ahead — whether it’s for back-to-school, a snow trip, or prepping for overseas summer holidays. A fresh haircut isn’t just about looking good now — it’s about setting up your style for what’s next.

Here’s why Studio Eighty 4 is your go-to barbershop in Melbourne this July:

Mid-Year = Mid-Style Reset

We’re officially halfway through 2025. If you’ve been thinking of changing your hairstyle, July is the smart time to refresh your cut. Why?

• It gives you time to grow it out into your ideal length by spring/summer.

• A clean-up cut now maintains your shape, structure, and confidence through winter.

• It’s the perfect moment to start grooming intentionally for that new style you’ve had in mind.

 Haircuts for Winter Snow Trips & Cold Weather

Hitting Mt Buller, Falls Creek, or Lake Mountain? Don’t underestimate the power of a good winter haircut before a snow trip:

• Avoid helmet hair — ask for a fade or short sides to keep things controlled.

• Beards need attention too — our beard sculpting and oil treatment keeps it from drying out in the cold.

Heading to Europe, Bali, Japan or the U.S. to chase the summer sun?
