Maple Hair, Nails & Beauty — also known as Maple & Co. — is a sustainable luxury salon at 125 Ward Street in Hamilton Central, directly opposite Kmart. Founded in 2023, it was built on a simple vision: high-end styling without compromising on sustainability, with eco-friendly brands and practices used in every service.
The salon covers hair, lashes and beauty under one roof. The hair menu runs from precision cuts and blow waves to hand-painted balayage, full and half head foils, bleach and tone, permanent colour, toners and smoothing treatments like Qiqi, Brazilian premium keratin and nano smoothening. A recently added luxury private beauty suite hosts customised facials — from Pure Fiji and O3+ to Korean Glass Glow — along with premium eyelash extensions, threading, waxing and massage.
The team includes Stacey, a stylist of more than 25 years known for all things blonde, Shauney, a balayage and round-brush blow-wave specialist with over a decade of experience, and beauty therapist Upasna, who tailors facials, lashes and waxing in the private suite. Every appointment is framed as a small escape: in-depth consultations first, then bespoke service with products chosen to be kind to both clients and the environment.
Free on-site parking is available at the side of the building. The salon is open 9 AM–8 PM Monday to Friday and 9 AM–6 PM on weekends, with online booking plus phone and email inquiries welcome. Wedding hair, makeup and children's cuts round out the menu.
Maple Hair, Nails & Beauty — known as Maple & Co. — sits on Ward Street in the heart of Hamilton Central, directly opposite Kmart. Founded in 2023, the salon was built on a simple vision: to provide high-end, luxury styling without compromising on sustainability. That idea shapes everything here, from the eco-friendly products used in every service to the calm, premium environment the team has created.
The team describes the salon as a haven — a place where every appointment should feel like a true escape. Whether you're in for a total hair transformation or a quiet hour of self-care, the experience is tailored to your needs and aesthetic goals. The stylists take time to listen first, so you leave feeling confident, refreshed and radiant.
That ethos recently led to an expansion: a dedicated, luxury private beauty room. It means rejuvenating treatments — customised facials, premium eyelash extensions, expert threading and waxing — happen in an intimate, uninterrupted space, all under the same roof as the hair studio. Sustainability runs through it all: products are carefully selected to be gentle on both clients and the environment, and continuous education keeps the stylists at the forefront of modern techniques.
Hair is at the heart of Maple. The menu spans precision cuts and blow waves, hand-painted balayage, full and half head foils, bleach and tone, toners and permanent colour, plus smoothing treatments including Qiqi, Brazilian premium keratin and nano smoothening. Add-on treatments like Malibu C, Angel masks and hair spa sessions with a relaxing scalp massage round things out.
Two senior stylists lead the chair work. Stacey brings more than 25 years of experience and is the salon's blonde specialist — "all things blonde, from bright to ashy," customised to your skin tone and lifestyle — with a soft spot for blonde highlights and bobs. Shauney, with over a decade behind the chair, is known for balayage, face-framing money pieces, long hair and round-brush blow waves, and for her in-depth consultations and product knowledge.
One thing worth knowing before you book: colour services such as balayage, foils, bleach and permanent colour don't include a finishing service. Add an express blowwave (no cut) or a cut and blowwave so your new colour leaves the salon looking its best.
The beauty side of the menu is broad. Facials range from a quick 30-minute mini facial to the Korean Glass Glow, BB Glow, Pure Fiji Vitamin C brightening and O3+ de-tanning treatments — with a brightening and blackhead-removal facial that includes a complimentary neck and head massage. Lash lovers can choose from natural, hybrid, full volume and Russian Diva extension sets, plus infills, lifts and tints. Brows get the full treatment too: mapping, threading, henna, tinting and lamination.
Body care covers everything from brow and full-face threading to full-body and Brazilian waxing, and massages — back, head, leg and foot, or a relaxing full-body oil massage — along with body scrubbing and polishing.
Maple is also a natural choice for wedding parties. The wedding menu covers bridal hair, trials, bridesmaids and junior bridesmaids, flower girls aged nine and under, and mother-of-the-bride styling, with makeup available for events. Special-occasion hair and curls-only appointments cover school balls and other celebrations, and families are welcome — the menu includes boys' cuts for ages 8 to 16 and girls' cuts for under 14.
You'll find the salon at 125 Ward Street, Hamilton Central, with free on-site parking at the side of the building. Hours run 9 AM to 8 PM Monday to Friday and 9 AM to 6 PM on weekends — the late weekday close makes after-work appointments easy. Book online through the salon's website, call 07 210 0670 or 022 058 3900, or email maplesalonnz@gmail.com. Consultations are free if you'd like to talk through a big change first, and the team regularly runs limited-time deals on keratin treatments, foils, facials and waxing combinations.
Whether you're after a fresh set of foils, a glass-skin facial or a calm hour in a private beauty room, Maple Hair, Nails & Beauty aims to make high-end feel genuinely relaxing — and kind to the planet while it's at it.
