Liv & Co: Boutique Haircare in the Heart of Kelburn

Tucked into Upland Road in Kelburn, Liv & Co has earned a reputation as one of Wellington’s most welcoming boutique hair salons. Designed around client comfort and dedicated care, every appointment is treated as an opportunity for guests to enjoy a relaxing escape from their everyday routines.

Founded on the principle that exceptional hairdressing should never come at the expense of hair health, the salon pairs thoughtful technique with cleaner product alternatives. The team takes a bespoke approach to every visit, tailoring each service to match an individual's personal lifestyle, texture, and aesthetic goals.

Clean Haircare and Tailored Consultations

A hallmark of Liv & Co is its commitment to using products that are free from ammonia and sulphates, while maintaining a strict cruelty-free standard. This focus ensures clients receive high-performance results that protect scalp health and hair integrity over time.

To ensure clients leave with the look they envisioned, the salon offers free consultations for new customers. Whether someone is seeking a simple seasonal maintenance trim or considering a complete style transformation, the stylists take time to discuss options, examine hair texture, and walk through necessary upkeep before picking up shears or mixing bowls.

Precision Styling, Foils, and Bespoke Colour

The service menu covers the full spectrum of modern hairdressing. Precision cutting is available across men's, women's, and children's categories, ranging from quick maintenance clipper work to full restyles. Stylists work with natural movement and hair weight to create shapes that look sharp immediately and grow out seamlessly.

Colour work forms a central pillar of the salon's daily craft. Guests can choose from essential root retouches and global colours to advanced lightening, custom toning, and foil work ranging from partial placements to full-head dimension. For those after soft, sun-kissed blending, customized balayage is hand-painted to suit the client’s hair length and skin tone. More specialized treatments, including smoothing keratin blowouts and occasion-ready event hair, round out the offerings.

A Welcoming Kelburn Destination

Operating by booked appointments, Liv & Co maintains an unhurried, calm salon environment. Late evening hours Tuesday through Friday make fitting appointments around work and university schedules effortless.
