Vivo Bethlehem is the Tauranga branch of Vivo Hair Salons & Skin Clinics, bringing expert hairdressing to 19 Bethlehem Road in the heart of Bethlehem. The team of professional, highly trained hairdressers focuses on three things: expert colour, precise cuts and beautiful styling — all in service of one simple goal, to make every day a good hair day.
Colour lovers are well catered for, with balayage, foils and highlights, full colour, Shinefinity Colour Gloss, Blonde Ambition and Creative Colour on the menu. For those after sleek, smooth hair, the salon offers Kerasilk Keratin Smoothing Treatments, Nanoplasty, Chemical Straightening and the Wella SmoothFiller™ Treatment, alongside hair extensions and event hair styling for balls and weddings. Every visit is backed by the VIVO Promise — hair you'll love, guaranteed, with any extra costs flagged upfront — and stylists are continuously trained through Vivo's national development programme, working with Wella Professionals, the world's no.1 salon professional hair care brand.
New clients, anyone trying a new stylist, or those returning after 6-12 months can take advantage of value-packed New Client Packages. The salon is open Monday to Saturday, with late nights on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Vivo Bethlehem is the Tauranga home of Vivo Hair Salons & Skin Clinics, one of New Zealand's best-known salon groups. Tucked into 19 Bethlehem Road, the salon is led by professional, highly trained hairdressers with a simple goal — as the team puts it, to make every day a good hair day. It's part of a group with a loyal following across New Zealand, yet the feel inside is unmistakably local.
What makes a Vivo salon different is the balance between national strength and neighbourhood warmth. Each Vivo salon is tailored to its local market, so the Bethlehem team styles with its own community in mind. Behind the chair, every stylist is qualified and continuously trained through Vivo's national development programme, so the standard you experience is deliberate, not accidental.
Colour is where Vivo Bethlehem truly excels. The service menu runs from classic full colour through to foils and highlights, hand-painted balayage and a Shinefinity Colour Gloss for anyone chasing extra shine and a refreshed tone. Blondes have a dedicated option in Blonde Ambition — a specialist service focused on bright, beautifully toned blonde hair — while Creative Colour opens the door to bold, fashion-forward shades.
Clients after sleek, smooth hair are equally covered. The salon offers Kerasilk Keratin Smoothing Treatments, Nanoplasty, Chemical Straightening and the Wella SmoothFiller™ Treatment, along with hair extensions for instant length and thickness. And when a big occasion rolls around — a ball, a wedding, a milestone celebration — the team creates stunning event hair styling you can trust on the day.
One of the best reasons to book here is peace of mind. Vivo guarantees hair you'll love, and its No-Surprise Guarantee means you'll be informed of any extra costs upfront — no awkward surprises at the counter. It's a straightforward promise, and it pairs nicely with the salon's other hallmarks: qualified stylists, local tailoring and Wella Professionals, the world's no.1 salon professional hair care brand, renowned for exceptional quality and cutting-edge innovation.
Clients seem to agree — one reviewer, Natalie, praised the team's attentiveness, called her colour "fab" and happily recommends Vivo Bethlehem.
That product pedigree carries into what you take home, too. Professional haircare, skincare and makeup are available through Vivo's online store, with free NZ-wide shipping on orders over $80 — handy for keeping your colour and condition between visits.
New to Vivo? Trying a new stylist, or has it been 6-12 months since your last booking? The salon has value-packed New Client Packages designed exactly for that moment. Regulars are looked after with Everyday Hair Packages and Men's Packages, and Gift Vouchers make an easy, welcome treat for the person in your life who deserves a great hair day.
Alongside hair, the wider Vivo brand offers skin treatments — including Skin30 peels, SkinPlus and SkinPro facial treatments and micro-needling — plus beauty services like brow shaping, brow and lash tints, lash lifts and waxing. It's worth asking the Bethlehem team what's available in-salon when you book.
Booking is refreshingly simple: appointments can be made online through Vivo's booking system, or by phoning the salon directly on 07 579 2887. The team can also answer questions by email at bethlehem@vivo.co.nz.
Hours are easy to plan around. The salon opens 9am to 5pm on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays, and stays late — until 8pm — on Tuesdays and Thursdays, a boon for anyone juggling work and weekends. Sundays are closed, so Saturday slots are the weekend option and worth booking ahead.
Whether you're after a routine cut, a complete colour transformation or show-stopping event hair, Vivo Bethlehem brings big-brand training, quality Wella product and a genuinely local, personal approach to the heart of Bethlehem.
