Paris educated beautician, Madame Josephine, migrated to Australia with her husband in 1949. She had opened a salon in Italy, and in Australia went on to become a hairdresser of national and international renown. Her first salon was in the Theatre Royal Building in Hindley Street and her second, across the road, was the first ‘open space’ salon of its kind nationally.
