I was very lucky to be recommended to Kathryn at The Good Place by a good friend, when I arrived in Napier in 2015. Until I moved I was happy with my Auckland hair stylist. However Kathryn is even better. She is creative and she listens. And she is great to chat with. I have gone from short straight dyed hair to naturally curly and I love my hair. Kathryn attends courses for continuous learning so a visit could be a fresh experience.

The best hair salon for curly hair! The first time I’ve walked out of salon and my curls were intact. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my hair!!

I had the best experience with Kathryn! She took the time to learn about the relationship I have with my hair before doing her thing. My hair cut works brilliantly for my lifestyle. Woohoo!
