Lisa's Hair And Nail Salon is a beauty salon at 42 Vivian Street in Te Aro, a short walk from Courtenay Place in central Wellington. Its web presence is a Facebook page rather than a standalone site.
A salon covering both hair and nails saves a second errand, and many people book the two in one visit, fitting a manicure around colour processing time. For hair, the mark of a good salon is the consultation: a stylist who asks how you wear your hair day to day, and about previous colour or treatments, before picking up the scissors. On the nail side, hygiene is the thing to check — sterilised metal tools, fresh files and buffers. Regulars tend to settle on one stylist or nail technician and rebook before they leave.
For Te Aro locals and inner-city workers, it puts a cut and a set of nails within easy reach of the CBD.
