What Clients Say
"Today was the first time I have gotten my hair cut in almost a year. I called this morning and I was scheduled in the same day a few hours later. The salon was very cozy and had positive vibes, a great first impression is always important to me. Taylor was my stylist today and she was absolutely amazing, everything I was looking for and more. Before I even came in I already was excited…"
— Emma"Jill goes above and beyond every time we have an appointment! She took the extra time to French braid my daughter's hair and she absolutely loves it!"
— Jenna"I've been getting my hair cut by Dawn Hudson for about sixteen years. She's pretty much the only person I'll trust with my curls and my purple! The salon is small but mighty and always has a great vibe. I adore the Salon VivEsta team!"
— Kellie"I got my hair done by Taylor. She did an amazing job and was very knowledgeable about the products used and took the time to explain how they help my hair! She also recommended products for me to use at home! I have gone here a few times now and have not been disappointed! If I could give them a million stars, I would!"
— Rebecca"I had red and weird grown-out highlights in my hair that needed serious attention. I sat down in Taylor's chair and asked her to hopefully make it more cohesive and brighter. I feel so much more confident and beautiful — thank you! The color correction was more than I could have hoped!"
