About Solo Hair Design

Solo Hair Design is a professional hair salon in the heart of Queenstown's CBD, specialising in beautiful haircuts, colour, highlights, hair extensions, hair straightening, blowouts and personalised wedding styling. The salon is led by an internationally experienced stylist with more than 32 years in professional hairstyling, bringing personalised, professional hair services to locals and visitors alike.

Known around town as Queenstown's Blonde Specialist, Solo Hair Design is passionate about creating the perfect blonde — from luminous highlights and seamless balayage to bright, bold tones and full platinum transformations. Advanced techniques and premium products deliver healthy, long-lasting results suited to each client's style, complexion and lifestyle, while professional colour correction services fix unwanted tones and past colour mishaps, always beginning with a personalised consultation.

The salon also offers one of the most advanced smoothing treatments available — Nanoplasty Hair Straightening with Biopulent — for sleek, frizz-free hair without harsh chemicals, plus premium Superior Hair nano bead extensions that blend seamlessly for natural-looking length and volume. Brides-to-be can count on personalised wedding styling, from elegant updos to cascading curls.

Solo Hair Design partners with top-tier beauty brands including Matrix Professional Haircare, Olaplex, Wella, Superior Hair and Biopulent. Open Wednesday to Saturday from 10:00am to 6:00pm, the salon welcomes appointments booked online or by phone.

Solo Hair Design: Queenstown's Blonde Specialist for Colour, Extensions & Bridal Hair

Tucked away on the first floor of the Sky Casino Building at 24 Beach Street, Solo Hair Design brings a quietly personal kind of hairdressing to the centre of Queenstown. The salon's promise is summed up in two of its favourite words: beautiful hair. Clients come for haircuts, colour, highlights, hair extensions, hair straightening, blowouts and personalised wedding styling — and, going by the salon's glowing Google reviews, they regularly walk out feeling like the best version of themselves.

Solo Hair Design is led by an internationally experienced stylist with more than 32 years in professional hairstyling. That experience shapes everything about an appointment here: unhurried consultations, honest advice and techniques tailored to your hair rather than a template. Reviewers describe the experience as kind, professional and informative — the sort of salon where you're walked through every step and leave knowing how to care for the result.

Queenstown's Blonde Specialist

If there's one thing this salon is known for, it's blonde. Solo Hair Design proudly calls itself Queenstown's Blonde Specialist, and the passion is obvious: luminous highlights, seamless balayage and bright, bold tones — from soft, sun-kissed hues to a full platinum transformation. The team uses advanced techniques and premium products with one goal in mind: stunning, healthy blonde results that suit your style, complexion and lifestyle.

Precision is treated as an art form here; the salon's own blog explores why great blonde work is about exact, careful foiling rather than shortcuts. And colour expertise doesn't stop at blonde — from natural balayage to vibrant all-over shades, Solo Hair Design creates long-lasting colour that brings your whole look to life. When things have gone wrong elsewhere, professional colour correction steps in to fix unwanted tones, uneven colour and previous mishaps. Every correction begins with a personalised consultation, so you know the plan before a single foil is opened.

Smooth, Long and Bridal-Ready

Beyond colour, the salon offers one of the most advanced smoothing treatments available: Nanoplasty Hair Straightening with Biopulent. This luxurious, science-backed treatment delivers sleek, frizz-free hair without the harsh chemicals or damage associated with traditional straightening systems — one of the reasons the salon champions it as a healthier alternative.

Dreaming of length? Solo Hair Design applies premium Superior Hair nano bead extensions, expertly tailored to blend seamlessly with your own hair for natural-looking length, volume and fullness — a comfortable, confidence-boosting result. And for brides, the wedding hair service is designed to make your dream bridal look a reality, from elegant updos to cascading curls that complete your fairytale moment.

Backed by the Best

The salon works with strategic partners from the top tier of the beauty industry, including Matrix Professional Haircare, Olaplex, Wella, Superior Hair and Biopulent, alongside a collaboration with Elysium Beauty. These partnerships mean premium, professional products sit behind every service — and give clients a proper aftercare routine to keep results looking salon-fresh.

The Experience, in Clients' Words

Solo Hair Design's Google reviews read like thank-you letters. "Wonderful, wonderful haircut — I feel like a new woman and 20 years younger!" raves one client. Another credits a blow dry that "lifted my existing cut and colour to new heights", while others single out a stylist who is "so kind, so professional" and "very informative". Several clients say they'll be returning — the highest compliment a salon can earn.
