About
Tara Walker
Tara (aka Mousey Browne) is a Sydney-based dry haircutter, curl specialist, and hair educator. Working from a small studio in Surry Hills — known for creating cool, sexy, bold hairdo’s on all hair textures, (especially curls) that grow out beautifully over time.
“I wanted to create an experience where people can get an awesome haircut, in a decent amount of time, and then get on with your day — looking good and feeling sharp. No shampoo, no blow-dry. Just a really good shape that’s been designed for your Face, your Life and your Style. A shape that you know how to handle and re-create. Plus a whiskey or tequila refreshment if the mood strikes.”
— Mousey Browne
With a pair of her mum’s old hairdressing scissors, Tara started cutting her dad and friends’ hair in the garage at 14 years old.
Tara was first introduced to the Art of Dry Haircutting during her apprenticeship, and it shaped the way she’s approached hair ever since. Cutting in its natural state just makes sense to her. A bit like shaping a bonsai.
Mousey Browne started from a tent at Glebe Markets in 2015 while trying to find a permanent home, eventually landing in Surry Hills — where she’s been ever since.
“There is nothing sexier than when someone is ready to wear their natural hair”
