BLAZE hair salon was awarded Metro 2009 Auckland's Best Hair Award 2009. It is a one off concept salon located in Newmarket fashion district. It's creative marketing tactics such as the eye-catching window display below has drawn much attention. For those interested, the window displays are changed about every six weeks. One of the stars of the salon is 2008 New Zealand Hairdresser of the Year, Mana Dave. He is the Creative Director of BLAZE Salon and International Platform Artist for Redken. Cost of female haircut & blowdry @ $95 with male haircut & blowdry @ $70. Not bad, compared to the $125 I paid at Toni & Guy on High Street! Other stylists at BLAZE are between $60-$80 for the same service.

Mana Daves also had something beside BLAZE salon in his imagination. It was the idea of Pony Xpress blow dry bar, which is open now in Glassons flagship Newmarket store. Some of the blow out styles are shown below on their little card menu.

I arrived at the bright, bubbly Glasson store to snap this quick preview of the salon. I'm thinking about doing a birthday blow out in a couple weeks and see what magic they can work!

On the side of the salon is a flash video screen showing each style. Very modern. Reminds me of the runway screens in designer stores.
