The Frankton salon scene at a glance
Frankton has quietly become Queenstown’s most convenient place to get your hair done. The Five Mile shopping precinct and the streets around Grant Road now host several hair businesses, from quick-cut barbers to boutique studios. That is great news for locals: no parking battles in the CBD, free parking at Five Mile, and world class hair a few minutes from home, the gym or the school run.
If you are comparing your options, three things separate salons at this level: verified reviews, specialist skills and transparency. Ask to see a salon’s Google reviews, ask who actually holds extension certifications, and ask for pricing before you sit down.
