Christchurch city's newest hotspot

Riverside Market

Frankie & Son Christchurch centrals newest hotspot barbershop is the place to be. With 2 boutique shops at either end of the CBD their following is fastly growing.

Frankie & Son Barbershop’s first proper outlet opened with four chairs at Riverside Lane in February this year. The boutique 40-room Muse art hotel, which houses their second shop, opened in may.

Drawing inspiration from Art Deco Interior Design of very glamorous, elegant, functional and modern; Frankie & Son created a Barber shop with a difference.

A family owned and operated business, husband and wife team, Stu Tafua and Tori Wiki have created 2 boutique barbershops which is now known for their full services and high end approach to barbering.

Named after their two eldest children, Frankie & Sonny, the salon's look is not your typical barber shop, featuring dried flowers, plants and an emerald and blush colour scheme.

It is definitely the new up and coming hotspot so be sure to book in online to secure an appointment.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

2025 has been massive. The Luxon-led Government's attacks on workers, on Te Tiriti, on pay equity, on educators, on health workers, and on the public service, have been relentless.

But despite everything thrown at working people, we've also seen some massive wins. We've fought back together with strike action. We've unified with days of action. We have focused on what matters. Make no mistake, 2026 will be wild, and we are ready for it! Source - New Zealand Council of Trade Unions
