Not recommending this place. If you value good service and money's worth, this is not it. I availed a full highlights and they let someone who is in training to do my hair. No issues for me to be handled by a trainee but it took 3 hrs to do a simple highlight. I always have my hairstyled and colored it a few times in salon or at home, and highlights is something I can do as well but I thought I should give myself a treat for this year and let the professionals do it. But seeing how she does it, I know that she's not sectioning my hair properly and she has been doing it too thinly that I technically got my whole hair bleached and lost all my dark hair. She began at the back and took 2 hrs to foil my hair strand (she should have saved time and just bleached it all since it's not a highlight anymore, I lost all my dark strands). When she's already on the front side, I even have to tell her to leave more black strands because I don't want my black strands to be the highlight (thin bright streaks is the goal!). Bleaching is a damaging product and I am aware of the process but they have to leave the backside of my hair (which she first applied it to) for almost 2 hrs because she's haven't completed the front after focusing too much on doing thin strands (just section it!). I was really internally panicking that they even proceed to steam and heat my hair with iron after applying the damaging product. Now after 3 hrs of gaining experience, they expected me to pay 275cad. It was on their website that full highlights range from 90-160cad. I have a short hair. You let a trainee do my hair. It took 3 hrs. Now you want 3 times of your base price? Oh wait, you're too kind to give me a discount now you're lowering it to 235? I don't mind paying more than the price but I did not get the professional service. Oh but it turned out good? Yeah I told your trainee what she should do on the front side because if I let her do what she has been doing like the back side I would have a bleached blonde hair instead of highlights.

After reading all the raving reviews about this place , I was in for a rude shock when I went there. I had asked to just trim my hair and add some layers in the front to frame my face. He did trim my hair but didn't do layers although he claimed he did. My hair did have layers from before the haircut , but had grown out and he told me that he added those layers. Apparently he assumed I could not see what he was doing. Then came the best part. He blow dried my hair ( very roughly I might add and burnt me a few times after which i winced - so he stopped,) and then he switched to iron my hair out. I asked him if he could use the roller brush to set my hair as I'd prefer having that instead of ironing it. He told me that since my hair was too thick, it would be time consuming and continued ironing my hair while literally breaking my hair everytime. I was waiting to get out as I felt that it was only because of my skin color I was treated that way. Everyone else at that salon ( 4 other lovely ladies) had their hair blow dried with the roller brush as requested. I never write a bad review even if I have had a not so good experience, but this appalled me and I had to let others know how terrible this person was. He is the younger of the two men that was working there and had such a terrible attitude. Picture attached to show you how the length of my hair varies on each side when it has to be of the same length

A big shout out to the owner, Rana! Thank you for being so patient with me and booking an appointment with Hassen to “fix” my hair. Had the honour of having my hair done by him since I’ve heard so much positive comments about him. He really took the time to understand my needs while still contributing his professional opinion; He took so much care, talking about what he recommended for my hair. Super happy with the result. Hassen did an amazing job on my hair! Mike on the other hand is so friendly making sure you have everything you need and checking in if you’re comfortable. I left feeling and looking amazing. ☺️

I had the worst experience at this salon. The owner wrecked my hair before my wedding and tried to fix it a second time. I paid over $300 and cried each time I came home. The owner tried to convince me my hair looked beautiful each time. I couldn't tell until I got home and blow dried it. My husband to be convinced me to find a new salon and didn't care what I had to pay to feel beautiful for our big day. Thank goodness for a talented stylist!

Came here on a short notice and got booked in very fast! Got exactly what I wanted and more!! I had a horrible hair color and I wasn’t very happy with how my hair looked and now it looks absolutely amazing. Cannot thank my stylist enough. Most positive experience I have had at a hair salon in a long time!! Cannot wait to return❤️

Had a great experience here, got in the next day for a haircut with Mike! His experience with cutting naturally curly hair was evident. It’s the best cut I’ve ever had! He took the time to cut it dry and then wet, the layers were just what I needed! Thanks Mike!

I came in with the WORST red hot roots from going to a hair school and they did an absolutely amazing job correcting it. They even offered to alter the color free of charge if I wasn’t completely satisfied with the color as the red is still

I had the appointment on Thursday and I went before night to have an idea about the service and price with MIKE. On the day of my appointment I showed reference picture how I want the color. At the end it turned out something else buti was

I have been to this salon before so I decided to book an appointment for when I was ready to dye my hair. The lady that helped me before was amazing and the reason I wanted to go back. However, due to a family emergency I couldn't make my

I had such a wonderful experience with Viva Hair, specifically with Hassen! He did my hair colour once before right after covid and is so kind, professional, and patient. I just had to book him to help me fix a colour job that didn't turn

I took my daughter here for her first big hair chop before her birthday and at first I wasn't sure if the salon was a good match for us but in the end we were both very happy. Her hair looks amazing. Hassan did an amazing job! He was very

I have been to so many hairdressers and have become quite frustrated as nobody seems to be able to cut my thin, fine and very straight hair properly. I have often paid top dollar for professional stylists but was always disappointed with

My first time experienced with VIVA hair salon and it was amazing. Mike was so professional and he transformed my hair way better than my original looks , I just loved it. Will definitely go back again, Up to Mike. …

Been going here for a couple years. Very clean and professional environment with lively staff and amazing hair stylist. I have yet to be disappointed. If you need a haircut I would highly recommend Viva Hair!

Tried this place for the first time. Went for a bang trim. Was an excellent price and the stylist did an amazing job. Excellent customer service. I left very happy with exactly what I was looking for.

Wonderful, laid back, comfortable salon!! I LOVED my experience there! Fit me in on short notice and Britney was an amazing, experienced stylist! I don't like trying new places and this

Horrible. Took my 14 year old daughter there. Spoke to the stylist advised just a trim she had a picture. I stepped out for 15-20 minutes. Hair was done when I got back.

Came to Viva Salon and had my hair done by Madeline E, which was amazing. I got the whole shebang - color, cut, and a treatment on my hair to keep it strong.

I had a very good experience here. Mike did my hair and I love it! He's the best. Definitely would recommend!

Always love going to Viva Hair! Love my hair and always love the stylists. They treat me like family!
