KPK Hair and Beauty is a multi-service salon tucked inside the arcade at 4/101 Main Highway in Ellerslie, Auckland, opposite the dollar shops on the suburb's main strip. Rather than booking separately at a hairdresser, a beauty therapist and a nail bar, clients can cover hair, skin, lashes, brows and nails in one place.
The hair menu spans cuts, colour, highlights, chemical hair treatments, and dedicated hair growth and scalp treatments, with a nano smooth keratin treatment special among the salon's advertised promotions. Skin services range from waxing, threading and hair removal to Indian relaxing facials, advanced machine facials, hydro-derma facials, micro-derma, chemical peels and micro needling. Lash options run from classic and hybrid sets through volume, mega volume and wispy styles, alongside lash lifts and brow lifts, while the nail menu includes gel, normal polish, SNS, powder dip, builder gel and spa treatments for hands and legs.
The salon offers a free consultation for enquiries, takes messages by phone or WhatsApp, and asks that longer services be booked in advance, with walk-ins welcome subject to availability. A downloadable PDF price brochure is available on the website, and updates on specials and beauty package deals are posted to the salon's Facebook, Instagram and TikTok pages.
KPK Hair and Beauty occupies a tidy corner of Ellerslie life: a multi-service salon tucked inside the arcade at 4/101 Main Highway, directly opposite the dollar shops on the suburb's main strip. The idea behind the place is simple — rather than shuttling between a hairdresser, a beauty therapist and a nail bar, you can handle all of it at one address. The salon divides its work into four broad menus: hair transformation, skin treatments, lash extensions and nails.
Hair is where the salon uses its boldest language, and its 'Hair Transformation' banner covers the services most people come in for: hair colour, highlights, chemical hair treatments, hair growth treatments, scalp treatments and hair cuts. That is a full spectrum, from a maintenance trim to more involved restyling work.
The chemical side of the menu gets particular attention in the salon's promotions. A nano smooth keratin treatment special has featured on the website with its own terms and conditions — a sign that smoothing treatments are a service worth asking about if frizz or unruly texture is your recurring complaint. The inclusion of dedicated hair growth and scalp treatments also suggests an approach that treats hair as something to be nurtured over time, not just styled on the day.
KPK's skin treatments list is one of the longer ones you will find at a neighbourhood salon. On the hair-removal side there is waxing, threading and general hair removal. On the facial side, the range runs from an Indian relaxing facial — a traditional format centred on comfort and calm — through to technology-led options: advanced machine facials, hydro-derma facials, micro-derma, chemical peels and micro needling.
That breadth matters in practice. A client can book a soothing traditional facial in one visit and a more clinical treatment, such as a chemical peel or micro needling session, in the next — with a free consultation available to help work out what suits their skin.
The lash menu is similarly complete. Extensions come in classic, hybrid, volume, mega volume and wispy styles, covering everything from natural-looking definition to full drama, and there is a lash lift for those who would rather work with their own lashes. A brow lift rounds out the eye-area offerings.
Nails cover gel, normal polish, SNS, powder dip and builder gel, plus spa treatments for hands and legs. Between the dip systems and builder gel, the menu leans towards durable, longer-wearing options, with the spa treatments there for when the occasion calls for something more indulgent.
KPK is upfront about how it likes to work. Longer services should be booked in advance, with walk-ins welcome subject to availability — sensible advice for a keratin treatment or a set of mega volume lashes, neither of which can be rushed. A free consultation is offered for enquiries, and the salon takes messages through its website form as well as by phone or WhatsApp. "Better yet, see us in person," the site adds, encouraging drop-ins during normal business hours.
Pricing is published in a downloadable PDF brochure linked from the website, so there are few surprises at the counter, and the salon advertises beauty package deals alongside its treatment specials. Updates on new promotions flow through the salon's Facebook, Instagram and TikTok pages under the handle @kpk_hair_beauty.
For Ellerslie locals, the appeal is the one-stop format: a haircut before work, a threading appointment at lunchtime, or a longer afternoon combining a hydro-derma facial with a gel manicure. One arcade address on Main Highway, four service menus, and a booking line that answers on WhatsApp — that is the KPK Hair and Beauty proposition.
