Gotta Be Hair is a hair salon in Kawerau, a small Bay of Plenty mill town under Putauaki; its listed web presence is a Facebook page rather than a website of its own.
A good haircut starts with a conversation: a decent stylist asks how you wear your hair day to day, what has been done to it before, and what you actually want, rather than reaching straight for the scissors. Photos help, and so does honesty about past colouring or treatments, since old bleach and box dye change what can safely be done. In a town the size of Kawerau, salons live on their regulars — once someone knows how your hair behaves, every visit gets easier — so it pays to book ahead and stick with a stylist you trust.
For Kawerau locals, having Gotta Be Hair in town means a cut close to home rather than a drive to Whakatāne.
