“Niche has new life breathed into it as a classic place for hair, nails and beauty treatments. It is easily accessible, located off Truxtun extension, and the stylists are friendly. There are several nail operators who are chatty and seem to love their jobs. I want to chat with my nail people!! If you are looking for a new hair or nail place, you will be well cared for at Niche!“

“My daughter got a haircut here and they did an incredible job. Staff was friendly and welcoming the whole time there. It’s located in a lovely downtown area.

“Great experience!! It’s hard for me to get my hair cut for numerous reasons, causing me to only get my hair cut once every year for the past 7ish years. Everyone made me feel very comfortable, and they did an amazing job of listening to what I wanted, even though I didn’t have a inspo pic or any kind of vision in mind, they gave me the exact cut I was looking for! Both Danielle and her assistant were so kind, and did an amazing job. The decorations are so cute as well; paired with friendly stylists the vibe is immaculate! I will be scheduling much sooner than I normally do, thank you guys again! ?“

I’m definitely going back—I loved everything about it, from the stylist to the energy and the way the hair was styled. It was definitely worth it!“

“I had a wonderful experience with Edgar. I came in wanting to transition away from bangs and move toward a longer hairstyle, but I wasn't sure what would work best during the growing-out process.

Edgar took the time to listen, explain my options, and help me create a realistic plan. Rather than simply giving me the haircut I requested, he used his expertise to explain what would and wouldn't work at this stage and helped me choose a length that would support my long-term goals. I left feeling confident, informed, and excited about the process.

The haircut itself is great, and what really stood out was Edgar's knowledge, honesty, and ability to help me think through the next steps. He made what felt like a frustrating hair transition feel manageable.

As a bonus, it was lovely reconnecting with him after many years. He even remembered my son from swim lessons years ago! That personal touch meant a lot.

I highly recommend Edgar if you're looking for a stylist who truly listens and helps you find the best path forward for your hair.“

“Amazing, such wonderful girls. Fixed my hair and I walked out of there with the confidence I didn't have walking in.“

“I have an alternative style and normally cannot find people to cut my hair properly, but I have always had good luck with AKS. I've been here 4 times now, and my last haircut was the absolute best haircut of my life. Michael took my thin difficult hair, and nailed an alt rocker wavy shag cut. He was so skilled, and fun to talk to. He offered me water and is just top tier. The other staff are wonderful as well. I love the feel inside the salon. It's relaxed and genuinely nice to be there.“

“Such a vibe! My Sisterlocks were overdue and in much need of TLC! Caprisha was gentle ( I’m tender headed ) and I received full treatment! My hair was washed, moisturized, steamed and retied! Her prices are reasonable and she makes a few hydrating mists to help maintain your locks- I love the Rosewater! Great conversation, calm energy and a cool movie selection to pass time. I look forward to my next experience with her! Thank you Caprisha❤️?? ?!“

“It was my first time visiting, and Lupe was very receptive to my request. She understood the assignment, 100%!“

“My hairstylist passed away 3 years ago and I've had a terrible time finding someone to replace her. Reb gave me the best cut!! Definitely coming back!“

“I’ve been getting waxed by Stephanie every month and she’s truly an amazing person, makes you feel like you’ve known each other for many years. Getting waxed is not for the weak(I think) and she just makes the experience better and better each time, the connection she has with her clients is top notch. I also have been getting my haircuts by Leslie, I went from below waist hair length to shoulder length and some color and she made my transition enjoyable, she listens and advices you with your hair and what could work depending on how you want it done. Overall an amazing place to get you feeling beautiful!!!“

“First ever curly cut. Very impressed & pleased with the service. Loved the process from beginning to end very informative & knowledgeable. Thank you. Highly recommend!!!!!!! Will definitely will be back.“
