iRazor Haircuts at The Hub Hornby is a one-stop quick haircut shop where technology meets style. Founded in Christchurch in the winter of 2014, iRazor is a 100 percent Kiwi-owned company that has grown to four branches across Christchurch and Dunedin, with the Hornby salon bringing its fast, friendly service to The Hub Hornby Mall.
The iRazor approach is simple: trendy, high-quality haircuts at a friendly price, delivered with a strong emphasis on hygiene and respect for your time. A self check-in kiosk and the in-house iQueue platform mean you can join the queue and keep shopping — your queue card notifies you by SMS when it's your turn. No appointment is necessary; just walk in.
Every cut is finished with iRazor's Air Wash technology, which removes left-over hair bits, and UV technologies are used for maximum hygiene. The experienced team caters to men, women and kids, with master-barber men's cuts and beard styling, trend-led ladies' cuts, blow drys, kids and senior cuts, and artistic hair tattoos. Senior Gold Cards are accepted, and the salon is proudly kids friendly.
Walk into iRazor Haircuts at The Hub Hornby and you'll quickly see why this is not your average mall salon. iRazor is a one-stop quick haircut shop with a simple philosophy: beautiful haircuts should be affordable, and everyone deserves to get the best version of their look. There's no appointment book here — just walk in, check in at the self-service kiosk and carry on with your day until it's your turn in the chair.
The team prides itself on the place where technology meets style. Every haircut is finished with iRazor's Air Wash, which clears away left-over hair bits, and UV technologies are used behind the scenes for maximum hygiene. It's attention to detail you can feel, wrapped around a fast, friendly, no-fuss haircut.
iRazor Limited was founded in Christchurch in the winter of 2014 and has grown tremendously over the years. The brand is 100 percent Kiwi-owned, born and bred in Aotearoa, and now operates four branches across Christchurch and Dunedin, with further expansion across the South Island on the horizon. The Hornby branch, inside The Hub Hornby Mall, brings that homegrown formula to one of Christchurch's busiest shopping destinations.
iRazor's cleverest idea is iQueue, the company's very own smart queue platform. Check in at the self check-in kiosk — the sign says it all: queue and shop. Your queue card keeps your place in line and notifies you by SMS when it's your turn, so there's no standing around watching the clock. As regular Aman Sharma puts it, the automated queuing has taken customer service to the next level: friendly, knowledgeable staff, great pricing and no wasted time waiting in a queue.
No appointment is necessary at any time — you simply walk in. That makes the salon an easy fit for a shopping-trip pit stop, a pre-event touch-up or a spontaneous decision that today is the day for a fresh cut.
iRazor caters to men, women and kids, and the service list reflects that. Men's cuts range from a quick clipper cut to a full restyle or skin fade, and the male hairdressers are master barbers in their own right — beard and moustache trims are on the menu too. Ladies can choose from a basic trim through to a restyle or style cut, with blow drys available to finish things off. Kids and seniors have their own category, from a simple buzz or clipper cut all over to a basic cut and trim with scissor texturing, along with restyles and skin fades.
For something truly personal, ask about a hair tattoo. The team loves a signature, head-turning look, and their artistic hairdressers take delight in surprising clients with personalised designs.
Seniors are well looked after — the Senior Gold Card is accepted here — and the salon is proudly kids friendly, which makes it easy to tick off the whole family's haircuts in a single trip. That's exactly what long-time customer Agnes Abuel-Guda does: she has been coming since iRazor opened and hasn't gone anywhere else, bringing the whole family for all their hairstyling needs. “There are hair salons, and there is iRazor,” she says.
Technology is only half the story. iRazor's hairdressers — the team calls them rockstars — are seasoned veterans packed with genuine hospitality and warmth, highly qualified, artistic and attentive. The house motto is bold: if you have a haircut that you can express, they can do it. The only limit is your own imagination.
Every haircut is executed by these experienced, well-trained haircutters with a strong emphasis on hygiene, trendy hair fashion and valuing your time and expectations — quality is never compromised for speed.
