Party & Bullshit
Words by Jack Bennett March 20, 2025

Shark Beauty stood out amongst the buzz and fervour of the F1 in Melbourne.

We mean that both literally and figuratively… With people arriving in Melbourne from all corners of the globe to watch the world’s fastest battle it out, Shark Beauty’s SpeedStyle Salon became something of an oasis for the who’s who of the Aus fashion scene who were in attendance.

While the high-performance engines flew around the track, the high-performance salon offered complimentary 30-minute hair styling at Melbourne Junction, Albert Park. Led by Joey Scandizzo, expert stylists showcased Shark Beauty’s precision-engineered tools, including the new SpeedStyle Pro FLEX Hair Drying System.

The action started early in the week at Crown Resorts, where Scandizzo styled VIPs like Maria Thattil, Rozalia Russian, and Montana Cox ahead of Glamour on the Grid, with Shark Beauty’s pop-up salon provided touch-ups throughout the evening. The SpeedStyle Salon officially opened Thursday, welcoming guests for styling sessions with Chris Hunter and his team, while the VIP Amex Lounge Salon ran from Friday to Sunday, offering hair and makeup touch-ups alongside Mecca Max.

 

Across the weekend, stars like Melanie C, Lily Zneimer, Jessie Murphy, and Anna Heinrich stopped by for their race-day refresh, with the haven that was the SpeedStyle Salon proving to be a winner all-round *waves checkered flag*.
