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. My appointment was about 3 hours and it included hair lightening, pre-toner and toner application, hair wash/scalp massage, and a blow dry/styling. 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!

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 give 4 stars just because the color didn't come out exactly as I expected; I requested warmer, chocolate/caramel balyage and showed some reference pictures (but maybe that's just how it shows up in my hair? I've never gotten my hair bleached before lol). The color came out different than what I was hoping for, but I still like the outcome! Thanks Monica :))

Absolutely terrible experience by Liya…read more I regret my tips so bad on top of the overcharge of a worse haircut we would have gotten from Supercuts. Instead of paying 50 dollars for 2 okay haircuts WITH LAYERS within an hour, we paid $175 for 2 haircuts that took almost 4 hours with someone that we showed the pictures to of past haircuts that we have both gotten (literally our regular haircuts while my hairstylist is on leave). She said she could do it, and then did not do any layers, could not point cut, when I asked she said that was dangerous. An hour and a 1/2 into my completely blunt haircut she tells me that not every hairstylist can do the same cuts. If she could not layer hair at all or do any point cutting, she should have told us that when we booked the appointment, because we put in what we wanted before we got there. I spent the last hour instructing her because all she did was a blunt cut. I now have bi-level hair. She couldn't point cut my hair so she just cut my hair up to 2 inches on the top of my head. My partner asked for regular layers and showed a picture and has a complete blunt cut for $75. She's had her license for 1.5 years and works part time if that gives you any idea of how overpriced.

Tina no longer works here. I goto Mindy now. Who cuts my hair perfectly in the faded Asian hair…read morethat sticks up like a microphone. Sounds funny, but eh, at least I don't have the mushroom top head look. My thick hair and the cut I want is not an easy hair cut to do. The description sounds funny, but with gel it's a clean military look or akin to school kids going to grade school. Not my thing but, the maturity aura can be fixed with longer hair on top. Believe the best way to say is it that I have a heart shaped face. That means the top of my hair should look like an egg to my preference. The haircut I want isn't for the faint. Mess up and you cannot fix it. It's why most fades on my hair type sticks out and is not flat on the sides like a flat top. Once Mindy understood I was willing to take the risk, I was rewarded in something that many hairdressers cannot cut and or is willing to do. Which is to fade free hand, then rat tail comb fade the edges on top with a clipper and texture with scissors. Mind you I watched a long time before giving her the go ahead to take the risk. Sounds a lot of work right? Hair dressers will complain doing this type of cut. It's a lot of work, will take time. Mindy does this for me. And for that I tip well. To be fair, I get my hair cut once a month. But it's usually the best way to learn as the hair has grown out and everything needs to be redone again. Note. Tip what you can, I usually tip hourly wage max to half. Mindy gets more, that's how much I like the cut. 15 to 25 percent minimum wage is a good tip. That being said Mindy takes time, is patient, and remembers you. Everything you would want in a hairdresser. I really should come every two weeks but I got things to do. Mindy does textbook style hair cutting. Which doesn't work with my hair cause you don't really expect an Asian with an Afro like hair type, thick, and straight. Takes time to learn cultured hair types. My hair is a rarity. Mindy learned quickly how to cut and tame it. Qualities of a true hair dresser. Note. I got my hair cut by Lynn too. She's good, but she's busy and I believe she understands my haircut and hair is annoying to do. The guy and new girl are good too. Just a preference and patience to be had.
