I used Viva Hair for my wedding and they were fab! The trial was co-ordinated with my makeup artist from Changing Faces so I could get my hair and makeup done together and see the final look before the big day. I would highly recommend them for all occasions. Thank you Charlotte and Chelsea for making us all look and feel gorgeous xx

I just walked in without any booking and got the best meeting by reception lady and the best haircut by Charlotte! She just took everything in her hands and she knew exactly what to do! I loved the atmosphere! Will definitely come back!

I have been to this salon a few times and initially Loved it.
However, the last time I visited was one of the worst experiences I've had at a hair salon. I always ask for the salon owner and previously she had always done an excellent job, however, this time I felt like I should have been honoured to have her touch my hair, shebwas short and patronising but I just let her get on with it because I trusted that she knows what she's doing. Despite asking for the same colour and cut as usual she managed to line my head with some very uneven and unblended bleach highlights (I always have very natural
