    Grown out hair from quarantine
    Kelly S.

    Amazing colorist and she pulled my hair so light blonde with minimal breakage. Who is she???? I love that she's always so willing to have fun with me and our hair sessions feel so creative and fun for the both of us. Be open and willing to experiment, Nicole has your back!

    First session

    I have been going to Nicole since 2018 and she has never left me disappointed! She specializes in color correcting/coloring with deep dark Asian hair! But has worked with all types of hair, not just Asian. She knows how to keep your hair healthy whilst also working to achieve your desired look. She always keeps the integrity of your hair her priority which is something I appreciate. She's been doing hair for over almost 10 years and I met her when she was working out of her own house and now she has her own studio. She's been through hell and back on her hair journey and it makes me so proud as her client to witness her success and loyalty to the hair game! She relocated to Sacramento from the Bay Area and I trust her work so much that Im willing (as well as her old Bay Area clients) to make the 1.5hr drive just so she can work her magic You won't meet anyone more hard working, humble, honest or accommodating! Plus her studio is private! Yes that's right, no need to worry abt her sharing tools or products with other stylists or being indoors with other clients/stylists around bc she's independent! She keeps her studio and tools clean/sanitized at all times

    In LOVE with this place!! Every time I've gone, Nicole has worked her magic and produced results beyond anything I could have ever imagined. She's truly a hair goddess. She's so helpful in guiding you to the right style and color and will always be honest with you. If you're looking for a new stylist (and friend), this is the best choice.

    Nicole is the best!! I have been searching for someone that is just perfect for years and now she is stuck with me for life! She is so talented and just knows what to do with my hair, it's like she can read my mind! She doesn't force a cut every time so my hair is actually growing! The location is super convenient and I love the vibe in her salon. Bonus-the snacks and bevies! And she has a little spot if you need to work on your laptop while your hair color is setting. I am guessing she won't be taking new clients for much longer - she is that good!

    Hair transformation

    HANDS DOWN BEST HAIR STYLIST IVE EVER BEEN TO. I needed a new stylist to help me meet my hair goals and Nicole did more than that. She not only has amazing color skills but she educated me so well on my hair and the products that would keep my hair healthy and happy. Her boho themed salon brought in all the right vibes! She spent her time in ensuring I was happy with my hair and that made a huge difference. I would recommend her in a heart beat. Thanks Nicole

    Nicole has worked on my hair twice now and she's good! The first time I showed her pictures of some hair color that I thought looked good and we tried it out. Turns out, it didn't look good on me. Nicole saw I wasn't too happy so she asked questions about what I liked and didn't, listened, and then changed it right then and there! I felt bad that she had to change it up right after styling my hair, but she didn't make me feel bad at all. She is a perfectionist and wants to make sure you are happy with your hair! On my second appointment we talked about what I wanted and I showed her some inspiration pictures. She saw a trend in the pictures and wow, did she deliver! I didn't know what I wanted exactly but she told me what she think would look best on me and went for it. I am in LOVE with the results! Talk to her, let her know what you like, and trust her with your hair! She's great! Plus, she has her own private suite so you won't have to worry about being in a public setting and coming into contact with so many other people!

    The after!!!

    Nicole is the only one I can trust with my hair! Her work is so impeccable, especially with Asian hair. She's been really informative and helpful with the process of dying my hair since when I first saw her, I told her my concerns about bleaching my hair since my hair was not the healthiest. We've done several bleach session and my hair still feels great! We did a global bleach and thanks to Nicole's work we were able to bleach my hair pretty lightly without it melting off my head lol. Today we did a mauve blush kind of situation and it turned out beautiful. Nicole's prices are super reasonable & she's such a kind and great person!! Pls support her if you can.

    Nicole did such an AMAZING job making my hair look alive and healthy! It was a VERY long session (6 hours), but she took her time, making sure it looks perfect despite it getting late. I definitely recommend going here 1000%. Cute little room and she makes you feel very welcomed.

    If I could give her 10 stars if would! Nicole is THE best. If your looking for more than a hairstylist who actually cares about your hair she is your go to! She actually takes her time and cares about her customers not to mention her prices are very reasonable. She transformed my DIY quarantine hair to bad and boujee. I'll definitely become back

She achieves my goals while keeping my hair healthy. She also introduced me to extensions for that more blonde look but still keeping my natural hair growing healthy.

So impressive I even had her do my daughter curly hair cut. She did an incredible job. In addition the salon offers yummy snacks, delicious drinks, and crafty cocktails. It's beautiful inside and provides an elevated experience. The location is a plus too. Parking is easy. Once you're feeling your best you can pop out for dinner or drinks.

Honestly, the best haircut + salon experience I've ever had. ALSO Mariela is super sweet and fun to talk to, she has the best bar/restaurant recommendations if you're new to Sac!

    I just moved to Sacramento and Nola gave me my first haircut here and I'm so happy with it! With…read morethe heat, I decided to cut at least 6 inches off, going from long hair to just above my shoulders. I have really thick hair that is VERY susceptible to getting big and poofy, and Nola was able to cut it into the perfect shorter style for me. The real test was after I washed it myself...all I had to do was blow dry it and it was sitting perfectly! Which never happens for me! Also, I've gotten lots of compliments - even over video calls at work! So happy with my haircut and so glad I found Nola for my first cut in Sacramento!

    I stopped by today after scheduling an appointment literally yesterday last minute (thanks Brooke…read morefor the flexibility and great communication!) and am SO happy I did. Coming from LA, the prices here are so reasonable and the service quality is fantastic. I needed a refresh of my hair after having it all grow out from pregnancy so I came in with virgin black hair, and Nola was so wonderful- she was personable, and knew exactly what she was doing so that she gave me a better balayage than the examples I provided. It looks super natural and I'm really pleased with the results. The cut was perfect- she didn't cut off too much and I got to keep my length with healthier layers. The salon vibe: it is in a cute little Victorian house and well appointed... I'd definitely recommend and will be returning on my next visit to town.

Before we even started, she confirmed the services I requested and explained the pricing structure; I appreciated the attention to detail.

She has been learning more about color theory and narrated her actions throughout the session. Her commitment to expanding her knowledge makes her a great professional and leads to a higher quality product and customer experience. The space is gorgeous, as always. Everything is clean and tidy; staff and customers are able to move around without crowding each other. There are light refreshments available. I also bought some product (shampoo and conditioner). Street parking is available. Treat yourself to a meal at Mother (across the street) after your appointment!
