“Wow! What a great experience for my teenage daughter. She has very long and very curly hair and Chelsea knew exactly what to do. We left very satisfied and will for sure be returning!“

“Of course! Here we go:

I can’t say enough about Danielle Davies at Hair by Danielle Davies! She is hands-down the most talented IBE (Invisible Bead Extensions) artist I’ve ever had. I’ve tried many over the years, and no one has come close. On top of that, she’s given me the most stunning balayage—I get constant compliments now! We instantly connected, and I even trusted her to do my mom’s hair. She’s so thoughtful—always checking in on my comfort and being accommodating. Plus, her suite is relaxing, with great music and conversation. If you’re looking for top-notch hair extensions, gorgeous color, and a truly caring stylist, Danielle is your person!“

“I take my two high school age boys here and couldn’t be happier. They always look great and love getting a little pampered. Affordable but also very stylish. You won’t be disappointed.“

“Vivian is friendly and professional, and she does an amazing job on brunette highlights ! Thank you Vivian“

“This was our first time getting a haircut here, and Mrs Juanita did an amazing job! She was fast, professional, and did such a great job with my daughter’s hair. We washed her hair again when we got home, and we absolutely love how the haircut turned out. ❤

I’m so happy with the experience, and I think we’ll be bringing my daughter here for her haircuts from now on.“

“At first I was a bit hesitant to book my first appointment because I never spent so much on my hair appointments, but after my first haircut and custom curlcare education with Deanna I found it worth every penny!! I got the cut I wanted and also a very extensive tutorial on how to get the best style out of my curls, utilizing the right products and right amounts and right techniques. Learned so much!! Thank you Deanna 🙏“

“Mila is a true artist! She took my short thin hair and created a beautiful long mane of rich color with highlights that feels so real and is much better than a wig. The K tip process is easy to care for, and she cares for her clients like a family member. I've been a client for more than a year, and will continue to come back every few months for an update! If you're considering extensions, go meet with her for a free consultation… You won't be disappointed!“

“Maryam is a fantastic stylist!! She is friendly and yet very professional. She listens to what I (think I) want and makes it looks great!!“

“Naz truly knows what’s best for me. She makes me feel beautiful every time, and I’m so grateful for her kind manner and expert touch with my hair. Thank you!“

“Michelle has changed my life!! I spent YEARS fighting my frizzy, curly/wavy hair- always wanting to love it but not knowing how to manage it. Midlife hormone shifting was making it even more maddening. Then on social media I learned about curly specialists (who knew!?!) and was referred to Michelle. She taught me how to handle my curls with my new haircut designed to maximize my curl potential and was very kind when explaining how I was doing everything to encourage the frizz! She gave me step by step instructions and has been very encouraging post-visit via text as I have learned to recreate her magic.

I have never been more confident or felt more beautiful in my curls than I do now! The investment in myself was TOTALLY WORTH IT!! Thank you Michelle!!“

“Have been going to this salon for years and they are the best! Mary Fitzpatrick, James, and every other stylist are so good at their craft!“

“I have straight hair and likes preppy hairstyle. Rachel is meticulous, great service. Very friendly, I drive an hour each time for this service.“

“Been coming here for years. Sharon is worth the drive from San Diego. Low key, clean, and artistic. Good vibes.“

“Andrew is best hair dresser. I've been going to him since 2008. The only hair dresser I trust. Seriously he is really good! T. Great personality and I love the atmosphere here!! Definitely 5 stars ?“

“Bie is absolutely the sweetest! I had my extensions removed by her after they were originally installed by a different stylist, but I'll definitely be coming to Bie if and when I decide to reinstall them. She's incredibly professional, kind, and so fun to talk to. She made the whole appointment such a great experience! <3“

“Amazing place. Lilly and her associates provide high-quality services at a great price! Highly recommend everyone“

“Tera is one of the Best Hairdressers I have ever been too!!! ?❤ And I've been to quite a few. She is amazing with color, cut, style, and le piece of resistance.... Dollz Extensions!I would absolutely 100% recommend her!Oh and if you haven't tried her Celfie (Selfie) Sunless tanning spray, you've got too! You can get it in shop or on Amazon for a more convenient delivery. ??⛱“

“I scheduled my first appointment and Ms Donia really did not disappoint! I appreciate the atmosphere and care she gave me. From the scalp analysis to the style, she is knowledgeable! Thank you Donia.“

“I've been using Nice Hair for several years and all the stylists are very good. A reservation is required but they are very accommodating with availability, especially if you are open to any of their professional stylists.
The cost is very affordable with a cash only, $22.00 before tip. This leaves room for a nice tip, so treat your stylist well!
Update: Continues to be my go-to hair salon. I have not had a bad experience with Nice Hair. Staff is consistently good and very efficient. Each cut includes a wash and optional product if you are going out for the evening.“

“Despite years of rigorous training and countless heads of hair, Stylist performed in exemplary fashion with adept hand and exceptional listening skills and coiffed MY head of hair: Low Fade, High Drag.

Walked out far better than when I arrived. Thank you verily Master Barber Hair Stylist.“

“I highly recommend Heidi who works here! She is the best hair stylist I have ever had.“

“I think it says a lot for business to have only five star reviews. I recently went to the salon to get a haircut and I was so happy with the results. Nina really took the time to listen to me and understand what I wanted. Which is something that other stylist have not done in the past for me, I came out of the salon looking exactly how I would imagine I would and I am incredibly happy with the results. not to mention that Nina herself is super nice and welcoming!“

“Dallas was amazing! He did exactly what I asked him. So patient and professional. 100% recommended“

“Went in for my sons first haircut, the salon is FILTHY. I didn’t even want to sit down, the chairs and tables were covered with crayon drawings all over, they looked like they had never been wiped down. The stylist stations were dirty and the chairs were not cleaned in between clients only blow dried the hair away. I watched one stylist literally take 5mins with a client from start to finish (good for a child who has a hard time staying still) but how much love and care could you actually be putting into a haircut in LITERALLY 5 minutes. Our appointment was at 4:00 and they were clearly overbooked because they took 3 other clients before us. By 4:15 it was clear that we would be waiting another 15-20 minutes and in a salon that is not safe for children my sons age to be entertained in the area MEANT for children we left. They were also playing EXTREMELY overstimulating techno music and putting IPADS in front of all the kids during their cuts, so if that’s what you are looking for then this is the place for you. But based on the quality experience that we had we will look elsewhere.

Oh also they had an ENTIRE stand of toys that they purchase in bulk for maybe 5 cents a piece and they were selling them for $10 each. I’m talking super cheap pieces of plastic. I know they were cheaply made because there were broken pieces of them all over the children’s play table. I get it you have to make your money but $10 for a cheap toy? On top of a $40 haircut not including tip? Come on.“
