Forged. Barber Studio is a men's grooming studio at 99A Awaroa Rd in Sunnyvale, Waitakere, Auckland, with a 5.0 Google rating. It opens Tuesday to Friday, 10:00 AM to 8:30 PM, takes bookings online, and lets you cancel or reschedule any time before your appointment.
A good barber does more than run clippers over your head: they talk through what you want first, read how your hair grows and sits, and shape the cut to the way you actually live with it. Fades and beard lines are the most time-sensitive work in the shop — most regulars book a tidy-up every few weeks rather than letting the edges go soft. Sticking with one barber who knows your hair is half the secret to a cut that always looks right.
With a kids' cut at $45, after-hours slots (a $10 extra per service) and a community-minded feel, it's a handy local studio for Sunnyvale and west Auckland.
