Vikingss Salon

ing the noise of all the salons, Vikings is almost audacious in its STATEMENT. A nonchalant attitude that appeals to the young, on-the-go, ready to experiment, start-up guys and gals for whom flexibility and choice are as important as internet speed. The #Instagram aesthetics just add to the experience. A quaint little cafe and an informal co-workspace makes it a "oh-so-chill place, so I don't mind spending hours there with foils on my scalp." Finding a salon and a hairstylist you trust is no easy task. Similarly to dating, you have to play the field a bit, get together a couple of times, weigh your options and ultimately decide whether they're worth settling down for. (Surveys show that women's relationships with their hairstylists last longer, on average, than their marriages. Oof!)

For those go-getters still single in the salon department (or for those casual daters, finally looking to make things official), Vikings is here to play matchmaker. Hopefully you're prepared for a loving and committed relationship because that's what you're going to get. Here's to love, health, happiness and really really great hair. The Salon, Services

Inside the sun-drenched Vikings Salon, you can get your locks looked after even as you enjoy your hot cup of coffee and nibble on bite-sized sandwiches or work on your presentation. For the get-set-go young professional this is just the complete go-to place. And it doesn't hurt that the salon is gorgeous. Stylists are really hip and on top of trends. The Insta friendly aesthetics completes the therapeutic experience. What is best about Vikings is the collaborative aspect, and especially the salon's founders, Vikram and Sanjaria. Sanjaria's artistic touch to the place is evidently visible. Vikram is an excellent listener who makes his clients feel totally at ease. He takes the time to sit down with his clients, hear what they are looking for, make suggestions and then create the most kick-ass cut/colour you've ever had. And some pretty interesting conversations too. The music, the movement and the energy are to die for. Efficiency is non- negotiable and the place spells hospitality and professionalism. Big, open and spacious and inherently luxe, yet unassuming and not pretentious. Bursting with creativity, and a safe space for getting experimental, whether you're chopping off a few inches (of hair) or colouring your hair purple. "The #views are total Instagram bait." The Workspace

At Vikings you can work and network, pamper yourself, get a massage or a relaxing pedicure and refocus and reenergise, you can attend some cool events. Customised for different needs and interests, it lets you do your best, most inspired work. It offers a combination of great location, flexible and collaborative physical space, a creative ambience that inspires new ideas. The super fast internet and steaming coffee just makes it so hassle free to work on your presentation. Sure it seems romantic to work at local coffee shops but there's only so much reliable Wifi, noisy side conversations. Vikings co-workspace offers a unique and innovative space that lets you work outside the box. For the busy executive or the dynamic entrepreneur, the working mom or the tinder dating college student, time is valuable. Today's new generation of creative workers expect more than bland business centres and sterile office spaces. They'd much rather work on their laptops while they wait out their hair colour, or take a spa break while ideating or a speedy blowout before you head out for a date. Powered by new models that integrate the needs of young professionals, Vikings offers interesting options through its unique and flexible platform. Born out of the belief that women need and deserve a multipurpose space designed to make their lives easier, Vikings has designed the highly Instagrammable work and social space which has interesting reads as well as on- demand makeup and blowouts. For anyone seeking 'convenience and connection' in a home away from home. Here are some of the cool things you can host at Vikings:

1. Artist's Corner / Studio
2. Book launches and book readings
3. Pop up stores and exhibitions for independent designers and artists
4. Fashion shoots / Vlogging
