Mariane was very fun&professional. I showed her a couple of pictures with a vague idea of what I wanted and I left with a great haircut that I love. She's very fun to be around. She also cut my 3 year olds hair the next day and was great and made my nervous girl feel at ease. Thanks so much, we will be back for sure

Claire at The Cutting Bar in Nelson (and all the team actually) are super skilled and super friendly. They take the time to understand the style you want before they start chopping. Then - after the lovely head massage and great chit chat - you're left looking and feeling amazing with a new hairdo and a stash of the gorgeous Keune products they stock (if you're smart). If you're on the hunt for a go-to hair salon in Nelson, hit up The Cutting Bar!

Excellent haircuts for first timer two year old and 5 year old. Lots of distractions to keep them relaxed. You did a great job and so pleased it was an enjoyable experience for us all.

Women's Haircut FAQs
There are many variations of women’s haircut, but they’re based around five main types. These are: the blunt cut (below the shoulders and all one length), the layered cut (lengths of hair cut up at an angle creating a neatly layered effect at slightly varied lengths), the bob (above the shoulder, blunt or layered), the shag (extremely layered often with a razor), and the pixie cut (short, cut above the nape of the neck).
Word of mouth referrals are always good, but if you don’t have anyone who can recommend a good women’s hair stylist, go online and do your research. Look at verified reviews, qualification levels, and their portfolio (their social accounts are likely to show some of their best-loved cuts).
A women’s haircut begins with a consultation, followed by a wash, cut, and style. The consultation is important: it’s your opportunity to tell your stylist exactly what you want and how much time, realistically, you have to style your hair each morning. They may make suggestions based on what they think is possible for your hair type and what you’ve told them before progressing. When you’re happy with what they’re going to do, your hair will be washed, conditioned, cut and finished with either a rough-dry or blow dry to really show off your new style.
To maintain the style, length, and condition of your hair, try to go in for a maintenance haircut once every 6-8 weeks.
Having your hair cut should cost around $40.
The more information you can give your stylist about your hair goals, the more likely you are to leave the salon with a style you’re happy with. You’ll need to do this right at the start of your appointment. It’s a good idea to show them an image of the type of style you like, and explain what you do and don’t like about it. You should also tell them how much time you have in the morning to style your hair. Your stylist may well share their own advice for your cut. Listen, because if anyone knows what works for which hair type, face shape, and lifestyle, it’s an experienced hair stylist.
