Ria Wineera
Lead Barber
Hey guys, I’m Ria.
I’m a South Taranaki girl from Hāwera and have spent the past 12 years barbering at Clippers, the shop my mum originally opened. I’ve now made the move to New Plymouth and I’m really looking forward to meeting new faces, reconnecting with familiar ones, and creating new connections both inside and outside of work as I continue my Ngāmotu journey.
