Janie is the best! If you're looking for a welcoming, reliable salon in the UTC/La Jolla area, I'd definitely recommend Nobel Salon. The salon has built a strong reputation for personalized service, experienced stylists, and a relaxed atmosphere that feels comfortable rather than overly trendy or intimidating. read more

After shopping around for a hair salon and a go to person, I've found my place at Nobel Salon with Florence. The salon is easy to get to and park because it's in a beg shopping center. Florence is kind, friendly, and listens to what you want. I've never had a faster haircut in my life. And not skipping on quality at all. She's incredibly efficient which this mom really appreciates. Her pricing is also very reasonable! read more

I was visiting from out of town and in need of a cut and color. Erin got me in the next day and did an awesome job with both cut and color! She listened to what I wanted and delivered just what I was looking for! I would definitely recommend this salon and particularly Erin! read more

review is regarding FLORENCE: the haircut was average but i've never met a more rude and unlikeable personality - she was very accusatory, would not listen, felt very rushed and did not feel like i could ask for exactly what i wanted because she was very rude and impatient. ruined my mood lol read more

Florence is an amazing hairstylist who really knows her stuff. I came into the salon for a consultation earlier in the year and have been gone back to her several times. She will talk with you for a while to make sure you get what you want and is very honest. When I came to her my hair was very messed up but now it looks great thanks to her. read more

Janie is awesome, far better than other salons in the area even compared on price. Yelp wants more characters

Called via Yelp for cut/style/blow dry on my day off-the response came promptly setting me up with Erin, who was supposed to call. An hour or two later texted main-number again as no call from Erin-finally she texted with 3 pm apt. Day of apt Erin cancelled at 10 am. No offer to find another. Texted main line and Erin-eventually owner found Florence to cut hair at 6 pm. Showed a picture of haircut I wanted-soft, layers, just above shoulders. Received a one-length, blunt cut above chin length. Simply awful. Very disappointing. No return planned. Stars only for short-notice booking. read more

AMAZING!! i'm very picky with who touches my hair and Flo absolutely mastered it. it was a bit of a drive because i wanted to try something new and i have officially become a returning customer. ask for FLO she's the best, truly understands every woman's hair is different and just by touching you hair she knows exactly what she's dealing with. i felt comfortable and the hospitality was impeccable. read more

I recently had my haircut by Florence and she did an amazing job!!! I'm very picky with my cut and she nailed it. She is amazing at what she does and is the sweetest person I've ever met. I'm so happy to have found a stylist who actually gives me what I ask for! read more

Wow!! Just had a haircut with Flo and she did such an amazing job! Exactly what I asked for!! It's so hard to look for a hairstylist, but I don't have to look any further! She's so easy to talk to. So happy with her work! 10/10 recommend! read more

Florence Amani is IT!!! She's hands down the best hair stylist I've ever had. I feel like I'm a tough client...I have thick hair, partially curly and I don't come nearly regularly enough... but Flo always welcomes me in and kills it every time. She really knows what she's doing and can tailor the experience to exactly what each client needs. Do yourself a favor and book with Flo! read more

Went to Florence for haircut and balayage. From the moment I walked in to the end of my appointment, she was super fun and knowledgeable. I showed her my inspo pic and she did exactly that and even prettier. I'm so in love with my look. I'm the type to rarely leave yelp reviews, but I had to comment on my amazing experience at Nobel salon. I will be back! read more

Janie is amazing! She knows what looks best on me more than myself. I just go to her and she takes care of it all! Grateful :)

Florence did a great job coloring and cutting my hair and cutting my child's! She is kind and helped me decide that would work best with my hair thickness! I'm thankful for her! read more

I have been going to Nobel Salon for some time. This review is overdue. Was in on Thursday and LOVE how my hair came out. Of note, Florence is always realistic about what color can actually be achieved, which I really appreciate--no false promises, just honest, professional advice. Florence also has a great eye for what styles suit you best and always take the time to make sure everything is just right. Consistently does a great job every single time. Highly recommend! read more

Worst hair service ever. Have been getting same smoothing treatment (bb) for nearly 15 years at various salons, normally lasts 4+ months, this one lasted less than 1. Total waste of money read more

I showed a picture of what I wanted to Suzy and she gave me exactly what I asked for. I feel like a new woman! Make an appointment with her at +1 (313) 980-1541. read more

I've seen Alana for 5 years now, ever since a previous stylist left my hair uneven, and I can honestly say she is absolutely wonderful. There are countless compliments I could give to both Alana and the salon, but one of the most memorable moments was convincing my husband--who has cut his own hair for our entire relationship, (15 years people!)--to finally give her a try. He had such a fantastic experience! Not only did he look incredible, but he truly appreciated the care and attention she put into his cut. He now understands the value of a professional stylist and is eager to return as a regular client, just like me! 10/10, highly recommend. read more

The last time I was in a salon was 3 months before lockdown. So, when I came to Nobel Salon, I was saddled with 2 years worth of long hair, the barest of bare basics of how to style it (thanks YouTube), and the heavy weight of obliviousness regarding what to even cut from all that hair. All I knew was that I loved having long hair and wanted to do something with it. I googled some good looking long hair styles for men, saved the photos to my phone, and called for an appointment. Getting the appointment was a painless process. At first I got the salon's answering machine but Janie texted me a few minutes later to help me make an appointment. Within a few moments and a few taps on my phone, I was scheduled for the next day. When the time came, Janie gave me the professional opinion that I desperately needed. She looked at me, eyeballed my hair, and asked me what I would like to do. I nervously mumbled out a string of what I liked and didn't like about my long hair, and what I wanted to keep. I also sheepishly showed the photos I had saved earlier to which Janie pointed out what would and wouldn't work well with my hair. What really impressed me during all of this was how Janie knew exactly what to do based on my wild ramblings. First, my hair went almost to my waist. She told me that if I'm going for a shorter cut then I should donate my hair. I agreed and she gave me a donation cut with instructions of who and where to donate the ponytail to. Second, she washed my hair, gave me incredible styling advice, and informed me of what she recommends as far as cuts go. After a short consultation, she sculpted one of the most comfortable hair cuts I've ever had from the mane I walked in with. I swear, I feel like a soft cloud is living on my head now and I love it. Overall, this was an amazing experience and I plan to come here regularly whenever I need to do anything with my hair. Thanks again Janie! read more

Janie is accommodating , efficient, quick and bright Happy to have found her The shop is very nicely decorated , classy , clean and organized read more

Amazing service and great stylists! Cute, cozy and modern salon with staff that never fail to leave me feeling gorgeous. Every time I go in I learn about a new way to style my hair and Jeanie is kind and patient enough to walk me through each step she helped me learn how to take care of my textured hair and advises me on the best hairstyles and cuts to bring out my curls!! read more

Florence is amazing and talented! She keeps it real and will tell you if what you are asking for is doable or not.

Janie delivers what I'm in the mood for, and it does change with the seasons. Conversations are always fun and I come away knowing more than when I went in. So happy with this location, too! read more

Suzy is amazing! I'm new to San Diego and I always get nervous about getting my hair cut by someone new. I have very curly, fine hair. I've been to many different stylist over the years, and so many of them have given me cuts I don't like. My cousin gave me the recommendation of seeing Suzy, because she adores getting her hair cut by her. Suzy was so quick to get me in to see her. She was so friendly and so fun to talk to while getting my cut. She listened to exactly what I wanted done with my hair. She gave me great tips on how to take care of my hair type, and she gave me one of the best cuts I've ever had! I will definitely have Suzy as my regular stylist now. read more

I got a hair cut at Nobel salon and I definitely recommend Suzy. She was so sweet and we shared some laughs. And then I came out with a bomb haircut that made me feel so beautiful. Amazing first experience with her! read more

Alana is great! She's super knowledgeable and always understands what I want to do with my hair. The whole staff seems easy to get along with and good at communicating. read more

I'm a client who when I like a hair cutter I stay with them forever. When they move I follow them. My last hair cutter recently got married and moved to Minnesota. I dreaded the idea of searching for a new person. I liked the reviews of Nobel Salon, it's near my house so I thought I'd give them a try. Janie was like a instant old friend. Her technique is next level. I'd never gotten my hair cut this way. I walked out feeling pretty good, then after a day or so for my hair to settle, its exactly as I had hoped it would be. I highly recommend Janie although I must say the shop was very busy with most of the chairs taken so I'd say Nobel Salon deserves it high rating. read more

The 3* rating is not for any work done at the salon unfortunately it is because of a scheduling conflict on the side of the stylist. I was texted 1hr before my appointment and informed me she double booked that time slot and could fit me in a couple of days later on the weekend. She made clear she was sorry in her text messages with me, nonetheless unprofessional since she was the one that picked that time slot. In my initial correspondence with the salon, I stated the 2 days I was hoping to squeeze in a cut and would be open to any time slot since I worked close by. Guess none of that info got passed along because suggesting moving me to the weekend did not take into account that I would have to drive 25miles on a day off, not to mention it was not in the 2-day time block. They were nice enough to try and squeeze me in with only 2 days' notice just wish the salon would have said we do not have any openings and let me make other arrangements instead of waiting until 1hr before. It would have been my first visit to Nobel Salon and with this being my experience I will pass on visiting in the future. read more

Came here after being recommend by a friend, Jane was really lovely! She cut my hair as I wanted and also gave me some great suggestions about things in and around San Diego! I would like to think of it as getting a haircut and a little something more! Highly recommended! read more

Janie did a wonderful job!! She styled my hair beautifully for a wedding on a short notice! I had a wonderful experience and plan on seeing her again soon read more

Janie is a superb hair stylist. she gave me the cut I wanted and even spent a long time giving me tips on styling my hair. She's really great! read more

Go see Suzanne B here!! She does an amazing job with my hair, every time. She takes great care in detail. She is brilliant with color and cut, I've only been seeing her for a number of years now. I'm thrilled to have found her and every service I've had from her has been outstanding. Highly recommend. read more

Horrible hair cut!! My stylist, Florence, ended up chopping off WAY MORE hair than what I requested. I showed her exactly how much I wanted cut off, and even showed her a picture of what I was looking for. I walked out of the salon basically with a bob, when I made it very clear I wanted my hair to go past my shoulders. While the salon itself was clean and a friendly environment, I will not be going back and highly recommend you look elsewhere. read more

I love Alana at Nobel Salon! I fly in from Idaho to have her do my hair! That's how awesome she is! I'm a brunette and wanted to be a blonde. But I also wanted low maintenance and it had to grow out well. I had been to many other salons in downtown La Jolla and tried to other people who claimed they were blonde specialists. I paid an arm and a leg and it was never blonde enough. I went to Alana one time and she just knew what I wanted and made my hair exactly the way I asked! She is amazing with color! Also, when I asked for a cut, she did a nice trim; didn't take too much off and again listened to exactly what I wanted. Alana is just all around the best and even if you live out of state, flying in to see her is worth every penny and more! read more
