Safe to say, the beauty industry is springing back into action brilliantly after the crippling consequences of the Covid lockdown. A conscious thought that goes into these newest wrinkles in town is innovations, not just with the services being offered but also with the ambience. Foliage plants in quirky planters, themed decor pieces, sunkissed outdoor seating and cooler indoors called as Instagrammable spots. So fitting this bill of all things this oh-so-adorable place is Juhu’s latest salon named Splash, co-founded by Vaishakhi Haria and Vinal Chhadva.

Vaishakhi Haria, a seasoned professional with over 17 years in the hairdressing industry, expresses her vision for the Juhu branch, “Our goal with this new location was to create a space that offers more than just hair services. We wanted to blend luxury with functionality, where clients can enjoy not only the best hairstyling in Mumbai but also a holistic experience that caters to their overall well-being.”

Salon USP

This branch adds to the brand’s legacy of award-winning excellence in hair colour and styling. Recognized as one of the best salons for hair color in Mumbai, Splash Salon has served over 30,000 clients, consistently delivering top-notch services. The salon aims to provide a comfortable and enjoyable space for co-working, reading, and hair services. The aim was to create a space where customers can also work while enjoying their hair services, ensuring the experience is enjoyable and not monotonous.

Design and Theme

The quaint salon is located in the heart of bustling Juhu. An elegant and aesthetically pleasing interior in the colour palette of tan brown, cream and beige which is courtesy of designer duo, Shweta Sonni & Pranali Shah. Fresh wooden accents and natural daylight instantly will put you at ease. The hard-to-miss and must-have-a-picture-here spot is undeniably the mirror corner.

Vaisakhi adds, “The idea for this salon with a co-working space stemmed from the fact that it usually takes an hour and a half for a pedicure or a hair colour service that lasts for four to five hours. Thus, simply to give it a break from the tedious process of waiting and sitting. We saw a lot of girls coming in with their laptops after COVID, working from home and even getting their hair coloured while the laptops were on. I reasoned that it would be best to make it cozy for them. That was the main concept underlying this.”

 Education and Training

 Splash Salon’s team comprises some of the top hairstylists in Mumbai, each dedicated to providing honest consultations and delivering fab hair results tailored to each client’s unique style. Whether you’re looking for a complete transformation or a subtle refresh, you can trust the expertise of Splash’s stylists to bring your vision to life. The team is constantly educated on new product launches and portfolios with training conducted twice a month.

Marketing Strategies

Splash strives for the best practices in the industry. The ensuing word of mouth publicity ensures a good footfall. “Additionally, we rely on social media to showcase our portfolio catering to the evolving needs of the consumers” elaborates Vaishakhi.

 The Treatments

For our pampering session, we opted for the Softie Melt Mani-Pedi which aims at cleansing, moisturizing and smoothing the skin on your hands and feet. It also relieves stress and fatigue in addition to reducing pigmentation. With meticulous attention to details like cuticle pushing which was gentle and buffing the nail, the session also featured a rejuvenating massage. Brighter looking and soft hands and feet validated the wholesome experience.

Next up, we opted for hair spa treatment. A luxurious treatment featuring an invigorating massage was the highlight. But the payback was superlatively transformative with shinier and bouncier hair.

Future Plans

Apart from haircut and colouring, Splash also offers manicure and  pedicure services. They have set sight on launching nail services as well.
