Story

Akaroa hair Studio is owned and operated by Terri.

Starting my career in England over 20 years ago I can offer you a wealth of knowledge and experience in the hairdressing industry.

I immigrated to New Zealand and Akaroa in 2005, working mobile for 3 years. The opportunity to purchase Akaroa Hair Studio arose and I have not looked back.

To help us obtain optimum results we use
Organic Colour Systems


Naturally better


The Natural Alternative

Most hair colour products use harsh chemicals like ammonia that damage hair in the colouring process, stripping hair’s natural health and shine.

Organic Colour Systems is different. We’re kind to hair and it shows.

By using more certified organic ingredients and fewer chemicals than anyone else we’ve created an effective way to colour hair that’s naturally better.

With Outstanding Results

And because hair responds better to natural ingredients our products give outstanding results.

Our unique approach is gentler on hair and locks in colour, moisture and goodness to every strand.

So hair looks naturally healthier and glossier with radiant, longer-lasting colour.


Organic Colour Systems Statement :

5 key promises.

We’re kind to hair and kind to the planet.

1. We use the maximum amount of certified organic ingredients and the minimum amount of chemicals.

To achieve great colour you don’t need lots of harsh chemicals that damage the hair. Hair responds best to natural ingredients.

Our higher-performing products use the maximum amount of certified organic ingredients with the absolute minimum of chemicals for naturally healthier hair with longer-lasting colour.

2. We source our ingredients ethically and use them carefully.

We select and process our ingredients very carefully to protect the environment, preserve natural stocks and make as little impact as possible.

We work with ethical suppliers who minimise their environmental impact and pay fair wages in safe working conditions.

3. We have never tested our products on animals.

Our products are safe and gentle on even sensitive skin. But we don’t and won’t test them on animals.

All our products are accredited by Choose Cruelty Free – a non-profit organisation that promotes a cruelty free lifestyle.

4. We believe in recycling and protecting the environment

We’re always looking for ways to reduce our carbon footprint and impact on the environment. We use energy-efficient, low-carbon methods and recycle where possible.

All our packaging is recyclable.

5. We have never used ammonia

We don’t like ammonia. We don’t like the smell or what it does to hair – and we never use it.

We believe in using natural ingredients that smell amazing and create healthier, higher-performing salons.
