Hairdressers offer expertise<br />

and creativity at local salon<br />

The opening of the new strip of<br />

businesses at West Melton two and a half<br />

years ago brought vitality and diversity to<br />

the township, with the range of retail and<br />

service operations designed to meet the<br />

growing needs of local residents.<br />

Among these was The Salon, a stylish<br />

hairdressing salon owned and operated<br />

by Viki, an experienced hairdresser who<br />

previously worked in Christchurch, and<br />

has been in the industry for 23 years.<br />

Viki says the location of The Salon<br />

is ideal, as it is easily reached from<br />

surrounding towns including Darfield,<br />

where she lives, and Rolleston, as well as<br />

from Christchurch, and her clients come<br />

from all these areas, and West Melton itself.<br />

“I also enjoy being in a smaller<br />

community, rather than the busier city<br />

environment,” she says.<br />

Working alongside her is Millie, who<br />

has been hairdressing for 15 years, so<br />

The Salon clients have the benefit of both<br />

Viki and Millie’s extensive experience and<br />

expertise in all aspects of hairdressing. Viki<br />

and Millie have worked together for nine<br />

years.<br />

“We get on very well together – we’re a<br />

great team,” Viki says, “and we cater for all<br />

members of the family with cuts, colouring<br />

and styling.”<br />

Newest staff member Rebecca joined<br />

The Salon a few weeks ago, and is enjoying<br />

getting to know the clients.<br />

The Salon uses NAK (Natural Australian<br />

Kulture) products for both colouring and<br />

styling.<br />

“I chose NAK because the product range<br />

is Sulphate and Paraben free and features<br />

natural vegan ingredients, and the colour<br />

range is beautiful and gives true colour<br />

results,” Viki says.<br />

Viki, Millie and Rebecca are passionate<br />

about their craft and love to create a style<br />

and look to suit the individual.<br />

The Salon, 736 Weedons Ross Road, is<br />

open Tuesday to Friday, with late nights<br />

Tuesday and Thursday, and Saturday<br />

morning. To book an appointment phone<br />
