Vivid in Schenectady, NY

I just wanted to give a shout out to Vivid Salon and Lissa who has been doing my hair for years now! I have been going to Vivid Salon for over 16 years, starting out with Marie and eventually transitioning to Lissa when Marie reduced her hours when she started having children. The girls at reception have always been so polite, helpful and cheerful when scheduling appointments and greeting me with a friendly hello and always ask if there is anything they can get me, whether a beverage or magazine, etc to make me feel comfortable. The salon has a welcoming atmosphere, is beautifully decorated and always immaculate, which is a feat in itself considering the number of clients seen on a daily basis. They use the best products and all the stylists are always continuing their education to deliver cutting edge styles and hair care at the most reasonable prices in the area. Lissa is so knowledgeable, creative and professional with excellent communication skills when discussing options. Her personality will lighten anyone's day no matter what mood you are in. I now usually let her take over and give me recommendations and it always turns out amazing especially considering the amount of times I have changed my haircolor! Over the years, besides for Lissa and Marie, I have had the opportunity to also have Eslana, Kayla and Gina take care of me, and again all of them amazing and talented. When my daughter got married the entire bridal party came in for hair, makeup and esthetics. Everyone walked out looking beautiful and hairdos lasted all day, even in the rain. That day, they all found their new stylists and I have continued to recommend Vivid Salon to everyone. Vivid Salon is a five-star plus salon and the best in the area, always going above and beyond to ensure their clients are happy whether you are age 2 or 92! Thank you for everything you do!!!

Best salon! I've been a customer for over 13 years. They do a phenomenal job! The owner Marie runs a great business with super talented stylists. She sends them to classes and trainings so they are always staying up to date on the latest trends and techniques. They have top of line products. You always get quality products and tools for use on your hair. Lissa has been doing my hair now for years and she is amazing. Always get what I'm looking for and she is so personable and friendly. Eslana does a great job as well! She has done my hair when Lissa has been traveling or booked up. You really can't go wrong with anyone here. I come up from NYC to get my hair done. I've been doing that for over 10 years and it's because they are amazing at what they do. Only place I've trusted with my hair for over 13 years.

Went thinking I might have my medium length hair cut short. Consulted with Lissa, a great listener with a wealth of useful suggestions and information. She is also a very skilled stylist. I went short in a style that she suggested and was completely happy with the result. Atmosphere is esthetically pleasing, calm and friendly. Very relaxing experience and I'm so happy with my haircut!

I absolutely LOVE Vivid! I have been going there for several years and can't imagine going any place else. I switch up my hair color and style regularly and always get compliments. Marie is my primary hair stylist. She is up-to-date on the current trends and recommends new styles/colors to try. I have never been disappointed. My mom loved my hair so much that she started going to Vivid and has been very pleased with her hair. It is a professional salon with talented staff and I always look forward to my next appointment!

Eslana is the best!! I like to try all different things with my hair. I trust her so much, I give her complete creative control over my hair every time I see her. She actually chooses my new look at every appointment and she hasn't let me down yet! She always chooses something that will frame my face well and will look good on me. I've gotten tons of compliments every time. And she remembers me when I come in. She remembers our last conversation 3 months ago, which is cool. That's a true stylist.
