ASC Salon
journey
Our Story
Established in 2016, ASC Salon is nestled in the iconic rise of Parnell. Designed to create an immediate sense of relaxation upon arrival, the award-winning interior fit-out comes complete with ground-level cutting and styling stations. Upstairs, you’ll find the longer-treatment zone with luxe velvet sofas, a coffee machine and a selection of boutique wine and beer offerings.
With over 25 years’ experience each, Stephen and Andrea Cockle started their journey in Auckland, followed by a seven-year stint in London and eventually migrated home with the goal of running their own salon.
Armed with expert knowledge and ample experience, the husband and wife team founded ASC Salon with a sustainable vision. Their business ethos reflects their personal ethics and only use products which are sulphate, paraben and cruelty free.
