About

Viva La Bella is a hair and makeup business based in Jersey City. The name is Spanish for Long Live the Beautiful. The business describes itself as a luxury hair and makeup collective and as a trusted beauty destination, and it reports more than 500 clients served and a 5.0 Google rating.

The business is home to a team of hair and makeup professionals and is still growing its artist collective. Work takes place in the studio or on location, and travel to clients across the region is charged according to distance from Jersey City.

Bridal work follows four steps. A bridal inquiry asks for the wedding date, venue, party size, and desired look, and inquiries are reviewed within one to two business days. A 30-minute call then covers timeline, vision boards, skin, and contract details. An in-studio preview refines the look and comes with photos and documentation for the day. On the wedding day, the artist works on location and brings all needed supplies. Bridal pricing is custom, and submitting an inquiry does not hold a date; the date is secured once a contract is signed and the deposit or retainer is received.

Hair services include blowouts, silk press, special event styling, two keratin treatments, and hair extensions with a free consultation. Makeup, editorial and on-set work, tattoo cover-ups, and private and group lessons round out the menu. The business also recommends DJ Essential as a DJ and MC vendor for celebrations.

Booking requires a 50% deposit, which secures the appointment and is applied to the total, with the remaining balance due at the appointment. Deposits are non-refundable. Appointments can be rescheduled free of charge with at least 48 hours' notice.

Beauty is treated as personal to each client and entirely their own, and artists are chosen for range across skin tones, hair textures, ages, and personal styles.
