Separate Kids' Salon

This is the Christchurch kid-friendly salon! Separate kids' salon with colourful walls, murals and fun mobiles, play area and toys and puzzles box. Each cutting station is bright and welcoming, with child-size furniture. Lollies given to well-behaved customers!
And of course all experienced and qualified hairdressers in our Children's Salon.
Located on Bealey Ave for five years, the stylists here are friendly and experienced. The adult salon in the next room makes it easy for Mum or Dad to grab a hair cut or style too!

30 years ago, Carlton Hair Corp was the first Hair Salon in New Zealand to open a separate Children’s Hair Salon and we are still the ONLY ONE in Christchurch today!
The Kids' Hair Salon is specially designed for children, with unique chairs, children's favourite characters on the walls, lots of toys to play with and treats at the end of the haircut. It’s a nice, bright and inviting salon that we find most kids really enjoy coming to. It’s set up so we can also cater for special needs children.

Randall Turner – owner and senior stylist

Randall has been in the hairdressing industry for over 30 years and has an amazing range of industry experience. Over the years, as well as his work in the salon, he’s styled hair on fashion shoots, pagents, weddings, school dramas, and even dancing competitions. In his own words: “ I enjoy all aspects of the hairdressing business with an emphasis on creating a personalized style for each individual, rather than using the “latest-style-fits-all” approach. I really enjoy working at 324 Bealey Ave with it’s airy, open, relaxed atmosphere and boutique feel.

Our favourite destinations…

Auckland destination2

Auckland

New Zealand’s economic heart and biggest city is also an exciting family visitor destination, situated on a sunny harbour with city beaches just minutes away from the CBD. Orientate yourself by heading down to Viaduct Harbour, wandering the waterfront, checking out the super yachts or enjoying the waterfront restaurants. Nearby is the must-visit Sky Tower along with excellent and kid-friendly museums and tons of exciting activities!

Wellington

Wellington is New Zealand’s capital. Here you will find New Zealand's parliament buildings, including the 'Executive Wing', more well-known as 'The Beehive' due to its distinctive shape. Another icon to look out for is the Wellington Tram, which was the main means of public transport between 1878 and 1964.

Christchurch

With a population of around 400,000 Christchurch, in Canterbury, is the South Island ’s largest city, yet much of it has the feel of a small town. Perhaps that’s why it’s known as the Garden City but with the expansive Hagley Park, Botanic Gardens, Port Hills, River Avon and numerous beaches the city certainly has an open, relaxed feel that’s hard to beat.

Queenstown

With its well-deserved reputation as New Zealand’s activity adventure capital you’ll never run out of activities and things to do in Queenstown, but you may run out of time! With breathtaking scenery, activities and festivals, cafes and restaurants, skiing and snowboarding, shopping and wineries, this lakeside alpine resort rates as one of the world’s top vacation destinations for all ages and seasons.

Rotorua

Rotorua sits on the shore of Lake Rotorua, one of sixteen lakes in the area formed by hundreds of thousands of years of eruptions from the Taupo Volcanic Zone. The area is renowned for its geothermal activity and top of any activity list is to see the bubbling mud pools that are around the region for yourself. The Waimangu Volcanic Valley offers a first hand insight into the devastation caused by the 1886 eruption of Mount Tarawera and is a great place to discover steaming volcanic craters and bubbling, spitting pools of mud!

Nelson and Golden Bay

The Nelson and Golden Bay regions, at the top of the South Island, boast enviable sunshine hours, glorious sandy beaches, safe swimming spots, lots of wildlife to look out for, and Abel Tasman National Park - an absolute must to explore, on foot, by kayak, your own craft or watertaxi. Nelson is home to a vibrant arts and crafts community with a fabulous Saturday market, and is close to award-winning wineries and family-friendly bike tracks to take you around the coast.

Hawkes Bay

Napier was rebuilt after the 1931 earthquake and is now known as NZ's Art Deco City. The Art Deco influence has created a unique city – nowhere else can you see such a varied concentration of art deco style. With over 2,200 sunshine hours a year, Napier is a year-round holiday destination with countless activities to entertain the kids – there's days of entertainment on Marine Parade alone, plus numerous other family-friendly trips and activities. Add to that the beaches, walks and flat cycle paths, outdoor cafes and entertainment, and you have a perfect holiday destination!

Northland

Beautiful, unspoiled beaches, fishing, historic gum fields, kauri forests – the Far North has it all. With subtropical temperatures, it's often known as ‘the Winterless north', with warm, humid summers and mild winters.
Gateway to the Bay of Islands, Paihia is a pretty, lively beachside town and a perfect base for your family holiday. It’s your start point for Bay of Island adventures including day cruises, sailing, kayaking, swimming with dolphins and reef or wreck diving.
