Twenty minutes. That’s the drive from central Queenstown to Arrowtown — and for a growing number of clients, it’s the best twenty minutes they spend each month. Revolver Hair Studio has built a reputation that draws clients from across the region, including a loyal following from Queenstown who discovered us and never looked back.

What Queenstown Clients Find at Revolver
Queenstown has plenty of salons — but the boutique experience of Revolver Hair Studio is something different. Arrowtown’s village character means everything moves a little slower, a little more intentionally. Your appointment isn’t squeezed between twelve others. Your stylist has the time to really engage with your hair and what you want. The result speaks for itself.
Many of our Queenstown clients combine their appointment with a morning in Arrowtown — coffee at one of the village’s cafés, a walk through the Chinese Settlement, or simply the pleasure of being in one of New Zealand’s most beautiful small towns before heading back to the bustle of the resort.
The Arrowtown Difference
What we offer isn’t available everywhere. A team led by Creative Director Lauren, with over 25 years of international experience. Exclusive use of Moroccanoil Colour and professional care products. A boutique space designed with the same attention to detail we bring to our work. And a commitment to honest, transparent service that puts your hair’s health first.
Easy to Get To, Easy to Park
Revolver Hair Studio is located in the Ballarat Arcade on Buckingham Street — Arrowtown’s main street. Parking in Arrowtown is significantly easier than Queenstown, particularly on weekday appointments. It’s a relaxed, pleasant experience from the moment you arrive.
