Forme Hair Studio is a hair salon at 27 Grey Street in Waitara, in the New Plymouth district, holding a 5.0 rating from its four Google reviews.
A good salon starts with the consultation: being honest about how you wear your hair day to day, how much styling you will actually keep up, and what has been on it before, since old box dye or henna limits what a colourist can safely do. In a town this size, salons live on regulars, and the payoff is that a stylist who has cut your hair a few times knows how it grows out and how it copes with Taranaki's coastal wind. Where a salon has only a few chairs, booking ahead pays.
For Waitara locals, Forme Hair Studio is a well-rated option right on Grey Street, close enough to home that a cut needn't become a trip into New Plymouth.
