The Spot Hair is a neighbourhood hair salon at 1/2 Gordon Rd in Morningside, Auckland, rated 4.8 from 35 Google reviews. Reviewers name Mel for colour work, including a last-minute bleach rescue fitted in at short notice, and describe a quaint, welcoming atmosphere.
Colour is where a good salon earns its keep. Going lighter or fixing a home-dye mishap takes a stylist who can read the hair's condition and talk you through what's achievable in one sitting and what needs another visit. A proper consultation before any bleach is worth asking for — photos help, but so does an honest word about what will suit your hair. Once regulars find a stylist who remembers their history, every colour builds on the last, which is why they rarely stray.
For Morningside locals after a colour fix or a fresh cut, this Gordon Rd salon is where reviewers say you leave feeling like a different person.
