Private, one-on-one appointments in a secluded studio set this Petone hair salon apart from busier high-street parlours. Founder and stylist Emily Faye Belle runs the space single-handedly, focusing on bespoke colour work tailored for low-maintenance grow-out, including lived-in blondes, glossy brunettes, copper tones, grey blending, and precision cuts. Services centre on cruelty-free and ammonia-free Kevin Murphy and K18 products, alongside certified waste-recycling practices as a Sustainable Salons member. Colour services must be booked alongside a cut or blow dry, and complimentary consultations are available beforehand.
One of four hair salons within a kilometre on Gear Street in Petone, it operates strictly by appointment from Tuesday to Friday, 9am until late. The studio sits behind a secure entrance requiring a text-messaged door code for entry. Clients should note that a \$100 deposit (as at 2026) is required for new colour bookings, with a strict 48-hour cancellation policy. Limited parking is available on the driveway, with additional spaces along the street or around the corner near Kmart. Our pick in Petone for an unhurried, private colour appointment.
