    My Amazing Hair Transformation!
    Jessica M.

    I wanted to share this amazing transformation by Nicole, owner of Alora!!!!! I'm quite embarrassed about my before picture but obsessed and so amazed by my after that I have to share!!!!!!! Nicole owns Alora Salon off Bulverde and 281! I cannot recommend her enough! She is so sweet, takes her time, makes hair dreams come true and and makes a quarantine hair in a bun 24/7 mama feel like a queen! I can't stop looking at myself in the mirror!!! I absolutely love my hair!!!! Thank you Nicole!!!! You are amazing!!!!

    Nicole is the absolute best hair colorist and stylist hands down!! She always listens to what you want and nails it every time. My hair came out beautiful!! Aside from being the best at hair, she has the most amazing and coolest personality. Usually getting my hair done feels like a chore because it gets a little boring sitting in a chair all day long. Nicole will talk and have fun with you and get you out of the salon in 2 hours which is unheard of to me. And lastlyyyyy, which is super important to me, she really cares about the client. She spent a good minute writing instructions on how I can get home the safest and quickest route because I live pretty far. But yes I will continue driving to her every single time.

    Nicole is great! She is knowledgeable and easy to talk to. I've gone to her for cuts, color, blow outs and Brazilian Blowouts. I always leave the salon looking my absolute best!

    Nicole is amazing! She listens to you, takes the time to make your hair perfect, and always has a smile on her face. Love Alora Salon and won't go anywhere else!!

    Nicole is seriously the best! I've been trusting her with ALL my hair needs for about five years - cuts, balayage, Brazilian blowouts, extensions, product reccs - and I'm never disappointed. She listens, but also makes suggestions for what might work best for you, which I appreciate. She's also so sweet and fun! Go see her!

    from brassy to sassy

    Brown and brassy to cool and sassy! If you're looking for a modern day fairy godmother cinderella-esque experience, look no further than Alora Salon! Instead of using a wand, Nicole uses her hair tools to create magic. You can tell she enjoys her craft and wants her customers to feel beautiful. She also makes hair health a priority and educates you on how to maintain your locks. This was my first color and cut since the pandemic, and from the embarrassing pre-picture, I clearly needed it. Safety measures were in full effect. Masks were worn the whole time. Appointments were spaced out, so it was just me and another customer. We were spaced out and she never had us in the same room for longer than a few seconds.

    Let me just say that I am extremely nervous when it comes to my hair. I moved from NY where I saw the same stylist since I was 7. It's hard for me to trust new hair dressers. Nicole has consistently done everything I've asked and then some. I trust her completely!! I am always getting compliments on my hair, and I've gone from blonde to brunette and all over seamlessly with Nicole!

    First time Nicole did my hair/fixed it

    I have seen Nicole for my hair needs for over a year now and her work always far exceeds my expectations! The first time I saw her, she did an awesome job with my color, cut and style. It was a dramatic difference and my hair felt better than it had in years. I love the way my hair looks too and so does everyone else because I get compliments all the time. Before Nicole, I had my hair colored (balayage). But it really only looked good when I styled it because the way it was colored just didn't look natural. The way Nicole does the balayage looks very natural and looks great even without styling. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for balayage, cut or even just a style.

    Nicole is overpriced with an unpleasant attitude. She was running 40 minutes late. This is the worst salon experience of my life.

    Honestly I have nothing but Amazing things to say about this place and how it is ran. First of all…read moreI had Kassandra and she was AMAZING. She is so sweet and professional and caring and you can tell she truly cares about her clients. I had gotten my hair done years ago from another salon and they bleached and butchered my hair so I was so nervous to come to another salon to get it done. But Kassandra took the time to listen and my hair is BEAUTIFUL! She is an expert on hair cuts as well, I went from long hair with no volume or definition to beautiful long layers with bangs that frame my face, I got a balayage done and now that I have lived here for 5 years I think I have found my new salon. Also a big shoutout to the owners as well, Roger was super professional and you can tell very proud of his studio he runs it well, he checks on every single client that comes in to make sure all the stylist are doing PERFECT work. I seriously cannot say how amazing this place was the two times I have come. Thank you Kassandra and Roger for making me feel beautiful:) you guys are doing amazing and I hope your company flourishes . If you are feeling iffy about this place, don't, because they are amazing .

    I normally don't write reviews, but my experience at Studio 27 on April 27th was extremely…read moredisappointing and needs to be shared. I went in for a partial balayage and clearly explained that I wanted the TOP of my hair highlighted. I even showed multiple reference photos to make sure there was no confusion. Instead, the stylist focused on the bottom of my hair and gave me very minimal "baby highlights," which was not what I asked for at all. On top of that, I specifically requested that my gray hair be covered, yet I left the salon with a visible patch of gray still in the back of my head. I was also quoted $50 for a haircut beforehand, but was later told it would be $70--and the haircut itself was barely noticeable despite me asking for layers. What made the experience even worse was being asked to pay the full amount BEFORE the service was completed. This made me feel uncomfortable and pressured, especially when it came to tipping, since I hadn't even seen the final result yet. In total, I paid $360 ($50 deposit + $270 service + additional charges), and I left feeling completely dissatisfied. I couldn't even sleep that night because I felt like I had been taken advantage of. I immediately expressed my concerns to the stylist and asked about a partial refund. I was told the owner would contact me on Tuesday--but he never did. I had to follow up myself. When I finally spoke to him, he was dismissive, defensive, and aggressive. Instead of addressing my concerns professionally, he stated he would review audio and video recordings of my conversation with the stylist--which was also concerning, as customers are not made aware that their conversations may be recorded. He then told me he would "challenge" my dispute and abruptly hung up. This was, without question, the worst customer service experience I've ever had. Between the poor results, lack of transparency, pricing inconsistencies, and unprofessional handling of my complaint, I would strongly advise others to think twice before going here. This place deserves no stars!
