Every figure here is computed from Google review data that Starworks collects for hair salons in Townsville, QLD, recalculated when this page rebuilds. Placement on this list cannot be bought.

How many hair salons does Starworks rank in Townsville?

Starworks ranks 130 hair salons in Townsville, QLD, holding 9,678 Google reviews between them. Across the 130 the median rating is 4.8 stars from a median of 37 reviews. Of the 130, 111 are rated 4.5 or better and 30 have passed 100 reviews. The most-reviewed carries 553 reviews, more than the top-ranked hair salon holds, which is why rating alone does not set the order.

What star rating should I expect from a good hair salon in Townsville?

The median Google rating across the 130 hair salons Starworks ranks in Townsville, QLD is 4.8 stars, and 111 of them sit at 4.5 or above. A rating at or near that median is ordinary for hair salons in Townsville, QLD rather than a warning sign on its own, and a rating well above it only means much when enough reviews stand behind it.

How many Google reviews does an established hair salon in Townsville have?

The median hair salon Starworks ranks in Townsville, QLD carries 37 Google reviews, and 30 of the 130 hair salons have passed 100. The most-reviewed of them carries 553.

How does Starworks rank hair salons in Townsville?

Starworks gives every hair salon in Townsville, QLD a reputation score out of 100 from three things: its Google star rating (up to 47 points), how many reviews back that rating (up to 35), and whether customers can reach it by website and phone number (up to 18). Review volume is the one part that can subtract: below 15 reviews it costs points, because a near-empty review record gives a stranger very little to go on. No score falls below 0 and placement cannot be bought. The score measures the strength of a business's public review record rather than the quality of its work, so it is worth reading the reviews as well, and every listing links to them on Google.

Why does a hair salon in Townsville with all 5-star reviews score lower than one with a lower rating?

Because review volume counts as well as rating, and below 15 reviews it counts against you. Five perfect reviews are encouraging but thin evidence; three hundred reviews averaging 4.7 tell a stranger far more about what to expect on the day. That is a judgement about how much proof exists, not about the quality of the work, and a newer hair salon with a handful of excellent reviews may still be the right choice in Townsville, QLD. The star rating and review count sit next to every score so you can weigh both yourself.

Why does the same hair salon not appear several times on this list?

Some businesses run more than one Google listing, often one per suburb they service. Those are the same company, so Starworks groups them and shows the business once, using the listing with the strongest review record. That is why this page opens with 50 distinct hair salons in Townsville, QLD rather than a longer list of repeats.

How often is this list of hair salons in Townsville updated?

This ranking of hair salons in Townsville, QLD rebuilds on a 30-day cycle and prints the date of its last rebuild above the list, which for the current version is September 2026. Ratings and review counts are re-read from Google over time rather than on a fixed schedule, so an individual figure here can be older than the rebuild date.

How can I improve my hair salon business ranking in Townsville?

Collect genuine customer reviews consistently, and keep a working website and phone number on your Google listing, because those are the three inputs the score reads. There is no placement to buy on this page. For scale: the median hair salon Starworks ranks in Townsville, QLD carries 37 Google reviews at 4.8 stars.
