STAFF TESTIMONIALS
MICHAEL MESITI
My name is Michael Mesiti and I was the former manager of Ebony Empire. I am now a principle educator in Hong Kong. Ebony Empire stands for a salon of luxury and professional stylists, a place for hairdressers and stylist to achieve the high standards that our industry needs.
I had the privilege of being asked to manage and grow a salon from a person that had a vision of a high end luxury salon in Townsville!
Amanda Roth had a vision that came to become a reality! A hairdresser and educator that has passion for an industry that I have been a part of for over 30years.
Amanda created a space that was opulent and when it opened the guests that came to our salon agreed. Thank you Amanda for the opportunity to become a part of your dream!

I've worked for Amanda since February 2018, in this time I've worked at both her salons Remy Hair and Ebony Empire.
Amanda has always been passionate about making her team the best they can be by providing myself and the others with lots of training. She is a very caring and approachable boss that goes above and beyond to make her team happy.
She has created 2 wonderful salons that really are a pleasure to work at. The other staff members are a friendly, welcoming, bunch of people and we have wonderful clients!

Only being new to the area a few weeks I was given an amazing opportunity to join the team at Ebony Empire.
Even during my trial I was welcomed by the whole team which really eased the nerves. I've worked in a few high end salons but the moment I walked into Ebony Empire it was on a whole level of its own. Amanda has created a decadent space for guests to come and experience pure luxury with exceptional service. I've also had the opportunity to increase my skill set in the short time I've been with the team as Amanda keeps all her staff trained with the most up to date skills and education. I'm excited to be a part of this amazing team and continue to grow with them as a stylist.

Amanda our boss is always upskilling us with courses she organises, giving us opportunities to grow in an industry that is always changing. I do and always have felt extremely lucky to be able to work in a friendly environment with great management who always look after us.

Although my time at Ebony Empire has been short thus far compared to the previous salon I was employed at, it feels like I’ve known my coworkers forever.
With transparency encouraged between employees you can speak your mind and clear the air without any fuss or talking behind each other’s backs. It feels like you have a complete team behind you pushing you to do your best, helping when an extra pair of hands are appreciated and giving advice when you need a friend. Not only do I work in a gorgeous salon but also with gorgeous people. Plus the lay-down basin massage chairs are a great bonus.

I LOVE working at Ebony Empire!! The salon has such a vibe, the atmosphere is amazing & I feel nothing but on top of the world while working there! The team is like a family here at Ebony Empire, the girls are great to work with and as a 3rd year apprentice, I couldn’t feel more supported to reach my goals and achieve my targets.
This is like a second home to me! This has got to be the best opportunity I have been given! I can't wait to see what the future holds. Also, I have an incredible boss who would go to the end of the earth to make her staff happy and provides the best for her salons.
MALLORY DIDO
I started my career in one of the best private school of Hairdressing in France in 2005.
As soon as I was fully qualified I decided to travel to learn new skills around the world (France/Spain/Belgium/Australia) challenging myself in divers competitions. From apprentice to manager to salon owner, I’ve experienced many different aspects of what this industry has to offer.
Today I am one of the head barbers at EBONY EMPIRE in Townsville. From day one I felt at the right place, the atmosphere, the team and the range of product are amazing. I am also really proud to say that we are provide the highest quality services and this makes the place a very special place to me. I love working at Ebony Empire because we are giving the highest quality services to our guests!
HAYLEY MILLER
Being completely new to the hairdressing industry and applying for an apprenticeship, I was very nervous. However, as soon as I met Amanda and the rest of the Ebony Empire team, I knew I was in the right place.
I was made to feel very welcomed by everyone and it’s become a positive space for me to not only grow but learn as well. I have had the opportunity to participate in a number of educational training provided to all of the staff by Amanda. It has lead to me not only studying hairdressing but also starting a diploma in makeup. I am beyond blessed to be part of the team.
TRACEY PATTERSON
I started with Ebony Empire from the very beginning. While with the company, I have been offered the opportunity to finish my diploma of beauty therapy and gain many skills including top of the line MicroTape Remy Hair Extensions, lash extensions and much more.
With a very motivated owner we are always presented with great opportunities to attend workshops and hands on courses with in the salon. We have new top of the range equipment provided to us, as well as your own trolley fully stocked with everything you could ever need. While being with the company I have been on maternity leave and returned, welcomed with open arms and a very flexible work schedule to have a happy home and work life. With Ebony Empire I feel more like family then an employee.
FELICITY MCGRATH
Within my time at Ebony Empire over the last few years I have felt nothing but joy and success. It is such a refreshing feeling knowing that I can openly speak to our Salon owner and that we can grow together.
I love that I can be myself, create beautiful hair, make my guests feel amazing and that my voice matters. We have the most beautiful salon, amazing guests and it never feels like "work", it feels like home. I love my team and there is nothing that I would change about my job, I have grown so much within my time at Ebony Empire.
JASMIN ENGLISH
I feel privileged working at Ebony Empire. The moment I joined the team I was welcomed with open & loving arms.
I came from a very small salon with not much training, I had absolutely no confidence with my hair dressing skills and was so scared to do anything. But the moment I stepped foot into Ebony Empire I have had unlimited support, training, courses, & such highly educated staff helping me. I have grown more than I could have ever imagined in just one short year of being a part of such an amazing team. I am learning and growing every single day and feel so much more confident in my skills. I couldn’t think of a better salon to be completing my apprenticeship.
JENNICA MARTIN
Within my few months at Ebony Empire, it felt like home. There’s laughter and joy. We share triumphs and learn.
We are each other’s cheer leaders and support, together as a team we learn and go to numerous training courses to up-skill and give our best to our guests. At Ebony Empire I've found a family, not just a workplace and together we succeed. I love working at Ebony Empire because they let me grow with knowledge, skills and confidence that the team would be there in good and bad times. There’s no other place like Ebony Empire.
