ABOUT
Self Centred Hair Care was founded by Kate Drayton — owner, operator, and creative force behind the brand. With over 20 years of experience in the hair industry, Kate has built a reputation for delivering exceptional results, earning multiple accolades along the way, including 2025 Wedding Hair Stylist of the Year.
Kate specialises in wedding hair and makeup, while also working in a busy salon environment where she is known for her expertise in blondes and textured haircuts. Over the years, she has worked with a wide range of professional product lines, giving her a deep understanding of what truly works — not just for the hair, but for the client experience. Through this, she recognised a gap in the market: clients wanted more from their hair care — more performance, more personalisation, and more intention.
Self Centred Hair Care was created to meet that need.
Behind the scenes, Kate is supported by her husband and co-owner, Josh, who manages the back end of the business. Together, they balance business and family life with their two young children, Ruby and Chase. The Drayton family is based in Lake Hāwea, New Zealand — one of the most breathtaking landscapes in the country, and a constant source of inspiration for the brand. for more information about Kate and her hairstyling business you can visit Superhair0 Wanaka Hair and Makeup
Nature sits at the heart of everything we do.
Inspired by New Zealand’s environment, Self Centred Hair Care is built on the foundations of sustainability, wellness, and high-performance, salon-quality results. Our goal is to simplify your hair care routine while elevating it into a moment of calm and self-care.
What makes us different is our customisable approach. We believe your hair care should be as individual as you are. That’s why our system allows you to:
- Choose formulations suited to your hair type
- Add tint to maintain and enhance your colour
- Select essential oils for a personalised aromatherapy experience
This creates a routine that is not only effective, but also quick, easy, and deeply relaxing.
We also understand that today’s customers expect more — and rightly so. Your hair care should support your health and wellbeing, which is why we prioritise clean, natural ingredients with no nasties, no animal testing, and vegan-friendly formulations. At the same time, we are committed to caring for the planet through sustainable ingredients, packaging, and practices.
Kate is also the owner and operator of Superhair0 Wanaka Hair and Makeup, where her passion for hair continues to evolve every day — directly influencing the innovation behind Self Centred Hair Care.
This is more than just hair care.
It’s a personalised, conscious approach to beauty — inspired by nature, backed by experience, and designed for real life.
Our mission is to revolutionise hair care by offering customizable products that cater to the unique needs of every individual through innovation and sustainability
