BOBO is a boutique hair studio at 533 Blockhouse Bay Road in Blockhouse Bay, Auckland. It opened in 2020, and the founders and team trained at Servilles and Dry & Tea. The studio specialises in precision cuts, balayage, dimensional colour, blondes and lived-in colour, using Kevin Murphy colour. All balayage includes root melts or tip-outs, and colour work is finished with a cut or a post-colour blow dry. The studio also sells hair care from Kevin Murphy, ELEVEN Australia, Pure and K18, with free New Zealand shipping and gift vouchers available in store or by email.
The studio is set up as a relaxed, design-led space, with a drinks fridge, a workspace table, and music chosen to suit the room. The team describes its colour as consistent and natural-looking, and its balayage as a particular strength of one of the senior stylists. Our pick in Blockhouse Bay for a balayage or a precision cut in a boutique setting.
