NV Hair Design is a boutique hair salon on Grey Street in the heart of Palmerston North's CBD, built on the belief that your hair can be your greatest asset. Comfort, hair health and satisfaction sit at the centre of everything the team does, whether you are in for an edgy designer haircut or sleek, glossy tresses. Colour work is a particular strength — from low-maintenance, sun-kissed balayage and bright blondes to glossy brunettes and soft pastel tones — and colour changes, corrections and transformations are approached with a comprehensive plan that treats, repairs and restores your hair at every step.
The team brings a combined wealth of experience: director and advanced senior stylist Nadia (24 years), advanced senior stylists Amanda (19 years) and Leticia (14 years), stylist Bria (5 years) and third-year apprentice Savannah. Each stylist has their own unique skills across traditional and creative colouring, balayage, designer haircuts and wedding styling, and the whole team is consistently upskilled through training and workshops. Not sure who to see? The salon will happily recommend the stylist most fitting for your desired result.
Beyond the chair, stylists share carefully curated industry tips and tricks so you can recreate your look for casual, work and evening wear, and recommend high-quality take-home care to keep hair looking beautiful between visits. Appointments can be booked online, gift vouchers are available, and guests can enjoy a barista-style coffee while being pampered — with late nights on Wednesdays and Thursdays for after-work visits.
Tucked onto Grey Street in the heart of Palmerston North's CBD, NV Hair Design is a boutique hair salon built around a simple belief: your hair can be your greatest asset. It is a promise the team takes seriously — from the moment you settle into the chair, the focus is on your comfort, your hair's health and a result you will genuinely love.
The salon is home to a close-knit team whose combined experience spans decades. At the helm is Nadia, director and advanced senior stylist with 24 years in the industry, joined by advanced senior stylists Amanda (19 years) and Leticia (14 years), stylist Bria (5 years) and Savannah, a third-year apprentice being mentored through her training. Every stylist brings their own talents — from precision cutting and personalised soft colours to everything bright, blonde and balayage — and the whole team is consistently upskilled through training and workshops to keep pace with an ever-evolving industry. Not sure who to see? Simply let the salon recommend the stylist most fitting for your desired result.
Colour work sits at the heart of what NV Hair Design does. The team's strengths span traditional and creative colouring, balayage, designer haircuts and wedding styling — whether you are after a low-maintenance, sun-kissed balayage, a bright blonde, a glossy brunette, soft pastel tones, an edgy designer cut or romantic wedding styling. Colour changes, corrections and transformations can take several hours, so they are approached with a comprehensive plan rather than a rushed appointment. Hair health is the priority: throughout your colour service the team works with you to treat, repair and restore your hair to its optimum strength and quality, every step of the way.
The salon's gallery gives a feel for the house style: lived-in blondes, rich tonal brunettes, sun-kissed balayage, soft pastels and precision cuts, all created in-salon. It is well worth a browse for inspiration before your visit — and once your hair is done, clients are invited to tag their hairdresser in their hair selfies on Instagram and Facebook, as the team loves seeing clients' faces.
Time at NV Hair Design is meant to feel like a treat. Guests can enjoy a barista-style coffee while being pampered in the relaxing salon, and the care continues beyond the basin — stylists share carefully curated industry tips and tricks so you know how to look after and recreate your hair for casual, work and evening wear. Maintaining professional results between visits also means the right take-home care, so the team recommends from a selection of products they describe as the highest quality.
The salon is always keen to hear from new and existing clients: phone to talk through your hairdressing options, send a message via the contact form, or book straight into the chair online. Gift vouchers are available for anyone keen to treat a friend or family member. Opening hours run Tuesday to Friday from 9am, with late nights on Wednesday and Thursday until 8pm — ideal for after-work appointments — and Saturdays from 9am to 4pm; the salon is closed on Sundays and Mondays.
Whether you are a regular due for a refresh, planning wedding-day hair, or finally ready to tackle a colour correction you have been putting off, the NV Hair Design team is ready with a plan — and a coffee waiting in your hand. Booking ahead is wise, especially for multi-hour colour work.
