Our Story
In 1987, the Tognini name became synonymous with fearless creativity and uncompromising craft.
Founded by Benni Tognini, the salon was never just a place to get your hair done — it was a space built on vision, precision, and heart. From its earliest days, Togninis embodied the idea that hairdressing could be both art and identity; that great hair could change not just how you look, but how you feel.
What began as a single creative hub in Brisbane quickly set the benchmark for excellence, individuality, and authenticity in Australian hairdressing.
Our Heritage
By 2006, Togninis had evolved into an institution — a movement driven by education, mentorship, and a relentless pursuit of growth.
The salon became a breeding ground for future industry leaders, a creative ecosystem where skill and artistry collided. Every stylist who passed through its doors carried forward not just technical mastery, but the culture of collaboration and curiosity that defines the Togninis name.
This era cemented the salon’s reputation as one of Australia’s most influential creative forces, shaping trends, inspiring artists, and proving that legacy is built through people, not just time.
Our Future
Now, in 2025, Togninis enters its next evolution — a chapter that bridges tradition with transformation.
The salon stands as both a creative institution and a digital powerhouse, embracing new technologies, modern education, and global reach while staying true to its core: artistry, integrity, and individuality.
Our Future is about redefining what it means to belong to the Togninis story — not just as a client or a stylist, but as part of a living legacy that continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible in hair, culture, and community.




Awards
Our clients’ happiness will always be our most loved award! But we’re proud to be recognised for the artistry, innovation, and dedication that define Togninis. These honours celebrate the craft, creativity, and community that have shaped who we are — and continue to inspire everything we do behind the chair.
