Kate Cox – Owner/Operator
FULLY QUALIFIED – OVER 20 YEARS EXPERIENCE
I am in my 17th year of business with Bijonei. I now mentor my team to deliver the most amazing hair experience for when you come visit us at Bijonei. I really want you to have beautiful hair that makes you look and feel amazing! Whatever you desire my team and I can make it happen!
Hairdressing is a dynamic and changing industry and it is essential we as a brand evolve with it! I am blessed that I do something I love and have the opportunity to create a high quality service for you, our guests. Providing you with a luxurious, blissful pampering experience delivered by the Bijonei team is my goal!
Robbie – Business Coordinator
I have had over 40 years in the hairdressing industry & bring an abundance of knowledge through Bijonei’s doors. I have been active in most areas of this amazing industry from owning my own salon, sales representative for a major company, NZQA/HITO assessor and most recently a Salon business coaching/mentoring. My wealth of knowledge has come from all these different avenues and I am so privileged to still have the love and passion for our ever changing industry.
My role at Bijonei is as Kate’s right hand, as a people’s person, I’m here to ease the day to day running of the salon, to grow the team and ensure an optimum experience for you, our guest. With a friendly smile and plenty of banter, I can direct you to the stylist of your dreams.
Susan – Hair Stylist
OVER 20 YEARS EXPERIENCE
I come to Bijonei with a passion for giving you the perfect style and colour that marries with your lifestyle, making you look AND feel Fabulous! I started my career over 20 years ago in Australia, completing my apprenticeship once I returned to New Zealand.
Tutoring and passing knowledge on to the next generation is something I have been blessed to experience during my career, however being one on one with you is the in-salon experience I treasure the most. I am excited to be part of the amazing Bijonei team who strive to create a professional pampering environment.
Olivia – Hair Stylist
6 YEARS EXPERIENCE
I have been hairdressing at Bijonei Hair Design for 6 years now and loving it. I love meeting new guests and making you feel great about yourself and your hair.
Whilst I am the quiet team member I am confident in sharing all my wonderful knowledge & skills with you my guest.
My passion is colour, from subtle to adventurous – the choice is yours, as I enjoy being able to put the whole package together for YOU.
Bella – Emerging Stylist
Hi, I’m Bella, the newbie! I am very excited to get to know everyone and further my hairdressing career at Bijonei Hair Design.
Last year I completed a Salon Support course through UCOL in Whanganui.
I have always been interested in hairdressing, but my favourite part would have to be all the vibrant colours, styles and techniques that make your hair look fab!
I love watching you walk out the door relaxed, full of confidence and feeling yourself!
The Salon
Here at Bijonei Hair Design, we strive to provide you with an environment where you can relax, get pampered and experience the best in hairdressing services.
Leave all your tension at the door – come and settle in with a complimentary beverage and the latest of magazines.
Our hassle free parking allows you to arrive on time and park (almost right outside the door) without the stress of finding change for parking meters or their time limits.
I think that the most important thing a woman can have – next to talent, of course – is her hairdresser.
