I obviously went back and wanted to lighten my hair a little, and Chloe saw the vision and did such a great job! She was also teaching a new stylist, and she does such a great job of including her in the appointment, explaining the process, answering her questions and mine. The salon itself is beautiful, and everyone is so kind. Can't wait to be back!

While confirming that her hair had been seriously damaged, they came up with a plan to correct color errors, condition it - and completed what my daughter desired all along.

Today Megan styled my daughter's hair for Prom and it was gorgeous. AMAZING customer service. Beyond impressed with the staff and skill at Aniu!

I truly cannot say enough about Becca from b. suite. She is simply the best. She did my hair for my…read morewedding, and it looked gorgeous. Even more, she encouraged me during my trial to go for a curly, whimsical look (I had planned to wear it in a straight bob), and I am so glad she did. She knew what she was talking about. She also somehow did six bridemaids hair + the mother of the groom in 5 1/2 hours. I do not know how she did it. And a handful of the bridesmaids did not originally sign up to get their hair done, and Becca graciously fit them in. When I was a few minutes late for my own hair appointment tim, her response was "I'm on your schedule - no worries." She was calm, professional, and really fun to be around the day of the wedding. If Becca is available, snap her up asap - she is as good as it gets.

After 18 months of actually really liking what she did with my hair I thought I could be honest with her. Nope...she doesn't like constructive criticism. She's not professional in her service at all.

I found Melissa by asking my curly-haired bank teller--who always looks great--for the name of her stylist. She too loves Melissa. I've been to Vivid a few times now, so know that you can depend on Melissa to: -Cut it right the first time, so no going back for fixes. -Take the time to blow out and cut your hair dry, if that's right for your curl type (mine is 3A-ish). -Consistently give you a great cut that looks fab curly or straight. -Cut it right for your face type. -Know the possibilities for your curl type. -Never try to upsell you; just builds trust one great cut after the other. The salon is easy to get to from the Madison, WI, area. It takes me just 18 minutes from downtown. Considering that I never have to go back for her to fix my cuts, it takes much less time than going to salons that are just 5-10 minutes away. Vivid is a new independent salon. At the time that I'm writing this review they may just have a Facebook page, but not an active website. Tho the salon is new, Melissa is an experienced stylist, so no worries there. I've already tried several of the other stylists who you'll find on this and other websites. Melissa is the only one who really, truly knows what she's doing with curly hair. You will not be disappointed!!!
