Our signature

Colour & balayage,
done with care.

Balayage, lived-in blondes, root tints and full-head highlights. Colour is what Riva is known for. We lighten and tone in a way that keeps hair feeling soft rather than stripped, so you leave with the shade you came in for and condition you can still run your fingers through.

“Really happy with my hair — it looks great and still feels soft and not damaged despite lightening.”

Ozzy cutting a client's hair at Riva Hairdressing

In the chair with Ozzy

Seventy years on Brighton Road, and the welcome hasn’t changed.

Riva has been part of South Croydon since 1953, and under Ozzy’s ownership since 2007. It’s the kind of salon where regulars come back for years, kids actually want to sit still, and a first cut tells you straight away you’re in experienced hands.

Unisex

Ladies, men & children

Walk-ins welcome
