About
Not your average
hair salon
Miss Fox is a Wellington hair salon for people who want their hair to feel like them — just sharper, bolder and considerably better.
We do beautiful blondes, vivid colour, great cuts and full transformations, but the real Miss Fox difference is how we make people feel.
Come as you are. Bring the reference pics. Bring the wild idea. Bring the dog!
Yep — Miss Fox is dog friendly, because good hair days are even better with a four-legged fur baby nearby.
HAIR WITHOUT THE BULLSH*T
We believe great hair starts with listening.
We want to know what you love, what you hate, how much effort you actually want to put in every morning and whether that Pinterest photo is realistic for your hair.
Then we’ll give it to you straight.
If something will work, we’ll tell you how.
If it won’t, we’ll tell you that too.
And if there’s an even better idea? Even better.
What matters to us
KNOW YOUR HAIR
We’re big on education.
If you’re investing in your hair, you deserve to understand what we’re doing, why we’re doing it and how to look after it once you leave.
No gatekeeping. No mysterious salon language. Just good advice that helps you keep your hair looking bloody excellent.
LOVE IT OR TELL US
Our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee might sound a little bit like something from a late-night '90s infomercial.
We’re keeping it anyway because we mean it.
We take the time to understand what you want before we start, and if something doesn’t feel right afterwards, we want you to tell us.
If you’re happy, we’re happy. Full stop.
DO THINGS DIFFERENTLY
Miss Fox was never meant to blend in.
We like personality. We like colour. We like people who know exactly what they want and people who have absolutely no idea.
We’re serious about great hair without taking ourselves too seriously.
Come for the expertise. Stay for the energy.
THE FOXY BOSS
At the centre of it all is Karen Madams, owner, creative force and Fox-in-Chief.
With more than 32 years in the hair industry, Karen brings serious experience without any interest in doing things simply because “that’s how salons do it.”
She’s passionate about exceptional technique, continual education and giving guests honest advice about their hair. She pushes her team to keep learning, experimenting and raising the bar — and encourages guests to push things a little further too.
Under Karen, Miss Fox has become the kind of salon where expertise and individuality happily coexist.

THE DREAM TEAM
The Miss Fox team are talented stylists and colour experts, obviously.
But first and foremost, they’re really good humans.
They listen. They ask questions. They keep learning. They care about the condition of your hair just as much as how bloody good it looks when you walk out the door.
Whether you want subtle, dramatic, polished, weird, wild or somewhere in between, you’re in very good hands.
Your hair. Your rules. We’ll help make it excellent.
