Why Iron + Ivy Is Queenstown’s Best Hair Salon
Queenstown’s highest Google rating. Iron + Ivy holds a 5.0 Google rating from over 657 verified client reviews — the highest of any hair salon in Queenstown. Clients consistently highlight the quality of the colour work, the professionalism of the team, and the results that keep them coming back every 8–12 weeks.
Two convenient locations. Iron + Ivy operates from Queenstown Central (Grant Road, near the CBD) and Five Mile (Frankton, near the airport and Remarkables Park). Both studios offer the full service menu, making Iron + Ivy accessible whether you’re based in town or on the south side of the lake.
Specialists, not generalists. The Iron + Ivy team includes dedicated colour experts, extension specialists, and precision cutting artists. Rather than a team of all-rounders, each stylist works in their area of expertise — meaning your colour is done by a colour specialist, your extensions by an extensions specialist, and your cut by someone who lives and breathes shape and movement.
Premium salon experience. As a MoroccanOil flagship salon, Iron + Ivy uses professional-grade products across all services. Every appointment begins with a thorough consultation — no assumptions, no rushed decisions, just an honest conversation about your hair, your goals, and what’s realistically achievable.
