Independently Owned, Locally Grown, Community Loved
In every small town, certain places become part of the community’s heartbeat, where stories are shared, laughter drifts onto the footpath and people leave feeling a little more confident than when they arrived. On our main street, that place is Shear Pleasure.
For 21 years, the salon has been proudly owned and operated by Jodi Lorraway. Her dedication, warmth and vision have shaped Shear Pleasure into the welcoming hub it is today. Two decades in business is no small achievement in a regional town, and that longevity reflects the trust, loyalty and genuine relationships built within the community.
More than a hairdressing salon, Shear Pleasure represents connection, creativity and community spirit. Inside, clients are greeted with warm smiles, lush tropical indoor plants and the hum of friendly conversation. Even four-legged visitors are welcome, with Esmay the dachshund a much-loved part of the salon’s charm.
The strength of Shear Pleasure lies in its team. Senior stylists and an enthusiastic apprentice work alongside Jodi to create a space where professionalism and fun go hand in hand. Clients are invited to relax and enjoy the experience, a reminder that hairdressing is about wellbeing as well as style.
By stocking exclusively Australian owned and made haircare products and actively supporting local initiatives across Proserpine and the Whitsundays, Shear Pleasure continues to give back. After 21 years, it remains a cornerstone of the community, built on pride, friendship and helping people look and feel their best.
