Raven - Epsom’s Best Kept Secret!

After 23 successful years in business, one of Auckland’s most well known salons has undergone a fabulous new makeover. Owners Tony and Debbie Wilson have revamped and extended their Epsom premises and the result is stunning! The theme is a classic black and white story, polished black wooden floor, white walls, black stone slab counter, Black lampshades and black central lighting station with the most amazing mirrors specially imported from Bali. Six large oval and six smaller identical mirrors create a beautiful tantalizing effect that creates an never ending illusion. The wash stations are located at the end of the salon, where a therapy room is also located.

Currently the salon has a team of seven, which includes a beauty therapist who specialises in Skincare and waxing treatments. Raven have an enviable reputation and have not only built up an excellent client base over the years they have been also lucky with their staff, one having been with them for 17 years. All the salon furniture was supplied by Comfortel Furniture and Raven is one of the first salons to feature Comfortel’s latest design range. Tony and Debbie sourced the mirrors and lampshades from Bali on one of their twice annual trips up there. Take a look for yourself at the finished result!
