Vivo Hair Salon Mt Eden, at 451 Mt Eden Road in the heart of the Mt Eden village, is part of the Vivo family of hair salons and skin clinics — with each salon tailored to its local market. From expert colour to cuts, the team here is focused on one thing: beautiful, healthy hair and a salon experience you'll look forward to.
Colour is where the salon shines, with balayage, foils and highlights, full colour and Shinefinity Colour Gloss on the menu, plus Blonde Ambition and Creative Colour for clients chasing something more bespoke. For those wanting sleek, smooth hair there are Kerasilk Keratin Smoothing Treatments, Nanoplasty, the Wella SmoothFiller™ Treatment, chemical straightening and hair extensions, while the Japanese Head Spa offers a scalp-focused treatment experience. Event hair styling for balls and weddings rounds out the hair menu.
The salon also operates as a skin clinic, with Skin30 peel treatments, SkinPlus and SkinPro facial treatments, micro-needling, and beauty services including brow and lash tints, brow shaping, lash lifts and waxing. Stylists are qualified and continuously trained through Vivo's national development program, and the salon works with Wella Professionals, the world's number one salon professional hair care brand.
Every visit is backed by the VIVO Promise — hair you'll love, guaranteed — and the No-Surprise Guarantee, which means any extra costs are flagged upfront. New clients can take advantage of value-packed New Client Packages, and late nights Tuesday through Thursday make appointments easy to fit around a working week.
Vivo Hair Salon Mt Eden brings expert colour and cuts to 451 Mt Eden Road, in the middle of one of Auckland's favourite village neighbourhoods. It's part of the Vivo family of hair salons and skin clinics, but like every Vivo location it is tailored to its local market — so while the standards are consistent, the experience feels like your local salon, because it is. The team's goal is a simple one: to make every day a good hair day.
Colour leads the menu. The Mt Eden team offers balayage for soft, lived-in dimension, classic foils and highlights, full colour services, and the Shinefinity Colour Gloss for shine-boosting finishes. Clients chasing something more dramatic have dedicated options too, with Blonde Ambition for specialist blonde work and Creative Colour for bolder ideas. Men are well catered for with their own cut and colour packages.
If sleek, smooth hair is the goal, Vivo offers Kerasilk Keratin Smoothing Treatments and Chemical Straightening, alongside Nanoplasty, the Wella SmoothFiller™ Treatment, and Hair Extensions for added length and volume. One of the newer additions to the specialist menu is the Japanese Head Spa, a scalp-focused treatment experience that has become a destination service in its own right.
Special occasions get special treatment as well: from school balls to weddings, the team provides event hair styling, so the result is one less thing to worry about on the day.
Vivo's stylists are qualified and continuously trained through the company's national development program, and the salon works with Wella Professionals — a brand renowned for exceptional quality and cutting-edge innovation in professional hair care.
The salon also backs its work with the VIVO Promise: hair you'll love, guaranteed. Under the No-Surprise Guarantee, you'll be informed of any extra costs upfront, so there are no shocks at the counter when your appointment wraps up.
New to Vivo? If you're booking a hair appointment for the first time, trying a new Vivo stylist, or it's been a while since your last visit, the salon runs value-driven New Client Packages designed to make that first rebooking easier to say yes to.
Mt Eden is a hair salon and skin clinic in one. On the skin side, the menu includes Skin30 peel treatments, SkinPlus facial treatments, SkinPro clinical facial treatments and Micro-Needling, with programs built around concerns like ageing and fine lines, pigmentation, redness and rosacea, dry or sensitive skin, and acne or breakouts. Beauty services cover brow and lash tints, brow shaping, lash lifts and waxing.
Between appointments you can keep the routine going at home — the salon's online shop stocks the professional brands it uses and trusts, including Olaplex, Goldwell, GHD and Aspect, with regular sales of up to 30% off RRP and free NZ-wide shipping on orders over $80.
Vivo Mt Eden is open Tuesday to Thursday from 9am to 8pm, and Friday and Saturday from 9am to 5pm. The salon is closed on Mondays and Sundays, so the midweek late nights are your best bet if you work nine to five. Bookings can be made online through the Vivo booking site, or by calling the salon directly on 09 623 3652 — worth doing ahead, since specialist colour and smoothing services take real chair time.
The client feedback gives you a sense of the atmosphere. One regular put it this way: 'Amazing stylists with the best treatment for you and your hair — and the best Hot Chocolate in town.' Hair done properly, and a decent hot chocolate while you're in the chair: not a bad combination for a Mt Eden afternoon.
Whether you're after a routine trim, a full balayage transformation, smoothing that behaves, or a facial alongside your colour, Vivo Mt Eden packages the lot into one Mount Eden Road address.
