Established in 2016, Hair Hunters has been Dunedin's go-to barbershop for quality cuts and genuine service, with more than 5,800 five-star reviews on Fresha. The shop combines modern and traditional barbering skills, covering tight fades, mullets, scissor cuts, classic cuts and beards in a relaxed, judgement-free atmosphere.
Five barbers work at Hair Hunters, each bringing their own background: Alex, a Master Barber who began his career in the UK with Francesco Group; Brennan, a Dunedin local and experienced barber known for classic styles and beard sculpting; Corbyn, an apprentice barber building his craft; and Ash, a Master Barber with 38 years in hairdressing and barbering, 16 of them exclusively in barbering, known for sharp fades and textured styles.
The shop runs on an appointment system that gives barbers time to perfect each style, but walk-ins are welcome whenever possible — guests are invited to drop in or call ahead to check wait times.

Hair Hunters is run by five skilled barbers.

Brennan is a Dunedin local with an emerging career in barbering, known for classic styles and sculpting a sharp beard. Corbyn joins as an apprentice barber, bringing natural creativity and connection as he builds his skills within the team. Ash, also a Master Barber, brings 38 years of experience in hairdressing and barbering, the last 16 exclusively in barbering, with a reputation for precision, sharp fades, textured styles, and a growing passion for men's perming trends.
The service menu covers a full restyle, a classic barber's cut, a strictly scissors cut for longer hair, a skin or zero fade, a Gold Card cut, a buzz cut, a kid's cut, an undercut refresh, and a beard trim with line up — giving something for every hair type and age.
