REVIEWS FROM OUR CUSTOMERS

  • Booked in for my brother's haircut as a gift. Not gonna lie, my brother never looked so good until after the haircut! It definitely shaped his face and accentuated on the right places. Also, the barber (Kahlyn) is so nice and listened to what my brother wants for his look. Highly recommend and would definitely come back!

    Really appreciated the barber who cut the hair of my 4 1/2 year old, he was very patient and did a great job. Wayne also did a great job on my hair, both were very professional. Appreciated the Father-Son Haircut option and we will be back!

  • Had my hair cut by Joel. He is not just a barber, but a true hair artist. Skilled and knowledgeable! He took time to finish the job and I loved the way he has done my hair. I am super happy with the hair cut. No doubt, Hair by Wayne is a professional hair services saloon and it will certainly be my go to barber shop from now on!!!

    Our experience at Hair by Wayne was very satisfying. Wayne is very talented in his field and was able to tame my husbands hair in a way that was not only manageable but also perfectly suited his face. He was incredibly professional and friendly, listening to exactly what my husband was looking before starting the cut. He didn’t take longer than the time allocated and the store ambience was very relaxing - a 10/10 experience!

  • I go to this barber all the time, and they’ve never been imperfect. They are true perfection when it comes to professionalism and quality hair cuts. They all make you feel at home, the facility is clean and really eye appealing. The prices are good but you can’t help but tip because of the incredible service. If you don’t know what haircut will suit you, they can help you out. I HIGHLY recommend that EVERYONE try this barbershop.

    Hair by Wayne provides a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, with friendly staff that make you feel right at home as soon as you enter. In addition to being skilled and attentive barbers, Wayne and his colleagues are also great conversationalists - successfully pulling introverts such as myself out of our shells. They'll even offer you a beer while you wait for your cut! Hair by Wayne has been my go-to barber since opening day and I cannot recommend them enough!

    Syed Hussain

    I got my hair cut at Hair By Wayne and I am thoroughly impressed with this service. I felt very comfortable in the shop, the vibe is nice and had quality conversation, in comparison to other barber shops I've been to where the barber barely talks to you. Not to mention the quality haircut came away with, I had a great experience and definitely will be going back for another cut, 10/10👌

  • Awesome cut!

    Simon K

    Best haircut I've ever had! Both Wayne and Kane are talented barbers with great attention for detail and great customer service. As a girl with textured hair, its been difficult for me to find a good barber that can cut my hair the way I like. I don't have to look anymore, Hair by Wayne is it!

    Rex crushed it - one of the best haircuts I've gotten! It's a shame I'll have to wait until the next time I visit New Zealand to come back again!

    Vlad Serban

    I’ve been to different barbers around AKL, a few in NYC and I have never had a cut this good - I can’t remember the last time I had such a reaction after a cut! Props to Wayne for the best cut I’ve had!

  • Today, I had the pleasure of getting my haircut by Wayne, a highly skilled barber. My first experience was outstanding. Wayne listened to my preferences and executed them perfectly. He's not only a talented barber but also a friendly guy who made me feel at ease. I'll certainly be returning to this excellent barbershop.

    Thank you to Kane and Wayne who are the best barbers which I have ever had. The barber shop is a great place, staff is always friendly. Plus, it's always good to catch up with you guys! Best in town. 🙂

    Lukas Nowicki

    Awesome barbershop! Wayne is a consummate professional, extremely skilled in his craft. I appreciate that he shares knowledge as he cuts your hair, with regards to the shape and look and the process he takes to get there. Conversation often carries through the open floor, all the boys there are great conversationalists and this results in a top tier barbershop experience. HairByWayne brings back the barbershop culture!

  • Every Haircut I’ve had here at Hair by Wayne has been of a high standard. The last one was done by James. Great haircuts, conversation and atmosphere . I would highly recommend these guys.

    Jason Slade

    Great barbershop. Very friendly team. I've had Brandt and James cut my beard, and I'm always stoked with the result. Great conversation, and I'm fussy so it's nice being confident they'll do a mint job. Also love being able to book an appointment.

    Matthew Abernethy

    Have been going for my haircuts here for a while now and I highly recommend the barbers here, definitely check them out. All of them are really good with cuts and also have great personalities, which always makes for good conversations. Here's why I like going here, these are always on point - fades, bead trims, lineups and trimming the top.
