Actively Hiring West End · Now Open Coomera · Opening Soon
Michael Langanis

"16 years in. Just Getting Started."

I started cutting hair at 15. Opened my first shop at 18. Sixteen years later, I run Langanis Group, a portfolio of premium hair brands setting the standard for what this industry can look like.

Langanis Studio in Teneriffe has grown into one of Australia's leading hair studios with global recognition, attracting elite staff from around the world. Langanis Hair ships and is stocked globally. And now, Waves is our next move. Our youngest brand, our boldest play, and the one we're scaling Australia-wide.

West End is open. Coomera is opening. More shops are coming. We're looking for the right players to come on the ride. Operators who want to build something with us, not just clock in for a wage. If you're chasing real growth in your career and want a brand that fuels it, you're who we're after. Apply.

The Platform. The Brand.
The Backing.

01

Build your following

The chair is yours to grow. The harder you hustle, the more you build, the more you earn. You're directly rewarded for the effort you put in.

02

A space that sets the standard

A space you're proud to work in. Designed to complement you and showcase your work in the most aesthetic way. Premium fit-out, real character, and your clients walk in already impressed.

03

Your ambition. Our backing.

If you're hungry to build something serious in this industry, you're in the right place. Waves is a brand built to back operators who think bigger, and as you climb, we climb with you.

04

Be the brand, not the background

If you already get that personal brand isn't optional, you're who we're after. Post your work, build your socials, market yourself like you mean it. Do that, and we'll put our channels, our audience, and our reach behind your name.

Make noise, we'll match it.

Not for everyone. By Design.

  • You think like an operator. Your chair is your business.
  • You're style-forward and you look the part yourself.
  • Skill behind the chair. Detail in the finish. We're not after average, we're after talent.
  • You leave an impression. It isn't just a haircut, it's an experience.
  • You respect a strong brand and want one behind your name.
  • You're hungry to build, not just clock in for a wage.
  • You hold a standard. Your work, your image, your conduct.
