Meet Christa
Twenty-eight years,
one standard.
Christa trained at Servilles in New Zealand, refined her craft with advanced training at Allilon in London, and has spent nearly three decades cutting and colouring hair in salons all over the world.
Today she works one-on-one from Grey Lynn and Surfdale on Waiheke, specialising in colour and precision cutting. Twenty of those years have been spent with Davines colour, chosen because it's professional, eco-conscious and kind to hair.
Every appointment starts with a free consultation and a proper conversation. What hasn't changed in twenty-eight years is the standard: a quality result, every single time.

The approach
The curve &
the line.
Two disciplines, one pair of hands. Colour is about light and movement — how a shade falls and shifts as you turn your head. Cutting is about structure — a line that sits right on the first day and grows out gracefully on the fortieth.
I — Colour
Tone that moves
like it's yours.
From soft, lived-in blondes to rich coppers and deep glossy brunettes, colour is built for your skin, your eyes and how much upkeep you actually want.
Formulas are mixed by hand with Davines, chosen for its gentle, eco-conscious ingredients and the shine it leaves behind.
II — Cutting
Precision you
feel, not see.
Precision cutting means a shape that works with your hair's natural fall, its growth patterns and the way you really style it on a Tuesday morning.
Blunt bobs, soft layers, fringes and restyles — each finished on a clean, deliberate line.
The colour chart
Every shade,
considered.
Ash to espresso and everything warm in between. Your consultation is where we find the tone that's right for you, test it against the light, and plan how it will grow out.
Twenty years with Davines
Professional colour, kinder to you and the planet.
Christa has worked with Davines colour for two decades. The Italian house is a certified B Corp, and its colour is developed to be gentle on hair and scalp while delivering long-lasting, luminous results.
It means beautiful colour without compromise — and a salon chair you can feel good about sitting in.
