Well friends, it's been 3 years of going to Salon VIV for all my hair needs and I couldn't be…read morehappier! After multiple balayages, highlights, trims, haircuts, and blowouts I think it's only fair I update my Yelp review :) Why I keep coming back: - Truly an artist! I'm always blown away by how well my color comes out every time. My balayages and highlights always blend so well into my natural hair. Even 3-4 months after I get my hair color my friends and co workers continue to compliment my hair! - She's honest! I absolutely appreciate Maria's honesty. I usually bring a few pictures as references for what I want my hair color or hair cut to be. She's quick to level set my expectations about how my hair will turn out. I have thick, dark hair and Maria always keeps it 100 with me- before she does anything she will explain how light my hair will actually go without frying it, damage to expect, and how a haircut I may want will turn out differently because of my hair texture. I would much rather have someone like Maria working on my hair than any hairstylist that will just do what I want when they know it won't look good. For the women that left reviews about how shocked they were with the prices... how do you not ask about prices before sitting in a hairstylists' chair?? Or even when you call to make an appointment? I don't understand. If you knew before hand you wouldn't be shocked. - Haircut/trim: ~$50 - Blowout: ~$25 - Partial Highlights: ~$150 - Balayage: $250+ (Prices are estimates because I have relatively long hair and it may differ for you depending on your hair length/texture). Overall, I love coming to Salon VIV and recommend this place to all of my friends. Long gone are the days that I was nervous to go to the hair salon. I hope my review helps! :)

Note to Yelp: Please add 15 more stars to this review, thank you. :)…read more What can I say about Maria that you probably don't already know? I'll try. First, this isn't just a hair cut or a blowout, this feels like a deeply personal experience with someone passionate about her craft, her life, everything. To be in the same room is to be sucked into her obvious joy for everything she does. It's mesmerizing. I went in for a blowout and got great conversation, the best blowout I have literally ever had and a chance to feel some goodness in this mad world. It was amazing. Maria uses THE best products. She is one of the most talented people I have ever had do my hair. She washed, conditioned, cut and blow dried it and it was a masterpiece. If I lived in Atlanta I'd see her twice a week, no lie. She is amazing. I just don't have anymore words to tell you how you must have this woman perform magic on your hair. You just MUST. Thank you, Maria! For the conversation, my beautiful hair, everything! You're amazing!

The staff here is great!…read more I love that you can book online with ease. The stylist I picked (after looking through their work on a few of their IG pages) was great! She answered all my questions, did what I asked, gave advice, was patient, and was cool to chat with during the appointment. The vibe was cool. It was a little quiet when no blow dryers were running, so everyone could hear others' conversations, lol. That's probably my only complaint, and it's a minor one. I was overcharged (I was charged for what I booked online but it was changed at the appointment, so it was an easy error -- not like someone did something wrong). I emailed after the appointment and they refunded me right away. Love this place!

Her stylists are very professional and well-trained, and they are lovely people as well. The salon is bright and pretty, with the most up to date equipment in the industry. Mary is my stylist and I absolutely love her. She is so sweet and she really knows her stuff. Her balayage is simply amazing . . . She is truly an artist. Her haircuts are great as well. She listens and offers her opinions if requested. The salon is so welcoming, and everyone is greeted warmly, as though you're a member of the family. I love experience I have here and I always look forward to my next appointment!

Not only did she save me from a terrible former hair color, over the years she has taught me how to keep my hair healthy, recommended products (even ones for my 9 year old daughter not sold at the salon) and truly become a friend. The service is incredible and timely. I'm always immediately taken to a chair, always offered a beverage or snack and I've never left with hair I didn't LOVE. The salon is always impeccably clean. They have a great mix of music that is enjoyable while in the shampoo bowl but not overpowering during conversation. I am so thankful I found Mary & BDJ and would recommend them to anyone and everyone!

Tastefully and comfortably furnished with a lovely selection of products and the sweetest two greyhounds I have ever met! (I was all about the dog snuggles but if you are not a "dog person" they won't push themselves on you. They are so well mannered). Mark spent time discussing what I wanted and exploring options before giving me a fantastic cut. (I will return for color too). Prices are very reasonable and they have a full range of spa services.
