Vivarium

Vivarium is a hair salon in Annapolis, Maryland, offering hair services that cover cutting, color, multi-hour color packages and treatments. The salon is open Wednesday from 11 AM to 6 PM, Thursday until 8 PM, and Friday and Saturday from 11 AM to 5 PM, and is closed Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.

Color appointments are arranged around how often a client returns. A one-hour root refresh is for existing clients only and covers quick grey coverage using an established formula. A two-hour refresh and refine handles root touch-ups, face-framing and partial balayage with gloss, but does not include a haircut. The three-hour bronze package, with a $100 deposit, suits clients who go ten or more weeks between visits and includes full foil, full balayage or root color with custom blending, plus a blow dry and style. The four-hour silver package, with a $200 deposit, is for full foil or balayage on coarse or dense hair, larger color changes, and root color with custom blending or wet color work, and includes a cut and style. The five-hour gold package, with a $250 deposit, can add custom pre- or post-treatments and any kind of custom color service, and also includes a cut and style.

Several services are designed as add-ons or quick maintenance. Gloss is a semipermanent color applied at the shampoo bowl to add shine or depth or to neutralize brassiness, and it typically lasts about six weeks. The custom Davines mask treatment is a clarifying shampoo and mask adjusted to the hair and scalp. A demineralizing treatment and a B3 deep conditioning treatment are also offered.
