I LOVE NOVA HAIR STUDIO!
The first time I came across Nova or even heard about them was because a friend referred me to them to get my hair done--at the time I was looking to get a beach wave done to my hair as I had been so so sick of the stick straight hair I have had forever and really wanted some more body and volume to it. I had done so much research and so much looking around about the beach wave, how it's done, and where to get it at the most reasonable price as it's definitely not something that is extremely cheap. I knew I would have to shell out some money for it but good gracious--some salons are complete highway robbery!
And here begins the story of when I found Nova. :)
I first looked online, and then just decided to call and ask about pricing. If I remember correctly they started at $65 just for the beach wave not including cut and went up depending on length and thickness of your hair. Now let me tell you--this was AT LEAST $40 cheaper if not more than what I had seen at other salons! That is a BIG whopping difference if you ask me! Over the phone, I booked my consultation with Becky who is no longer with them to see what my hair was like and to give me a quote based on my hair type. I believe with everything, wash, beach wave service, cut, and style my grand total came into just a little under $100! Another great plus was I had one of their awesome 20% off coupons for a chemical service and that also knocked it down considerably! Since having my first beach wave experience with Becky, I have had two more done by different lovely ladies at the salon just because I love them so much. With my 3rd beach wave I did run into a bit of a mishap with it and I contacted Barbie the owner the next day and she was able to get me in ASAP to fix the damage. I have been so impressed with the customer service this salon has given me time and time again and have always been happy with how my hair looked after a service.
With that said, ever since Barbie was the one who saved my hair that day I have been going to her to do my hair. This past month I went back to Nova for the first time since my last Beach Wave and decided to take a break from them and just get a normal cut to let my hair relax from the chemicals for a while. I honestly hadn't had an actual haircut with my straight hair in roughly 1.5-2 years when she cut it this past time so I felt like I had an idea of what I wanted but really wasn't all that clear with Barbie from the beginning. As Barbie was finishing up we realized I had a different cut in mind than she had and I felt SO bad for the miscommunication on my part because she had just spent more than an hour cutting it one way only after realizing that it wasn't what I had in mind at all! I showed her the picture that I wanted it to look like again and she quickly cut to fix it the way I was wanting it all the while I am profusely apologizing her for confusing her with all the pictures I had shown her. Haha! She went more on the conservative side in the back and gave me a low stack and I left happy with it!
I messaged Barbie about a day later and asked her if she wouldn't mind cutting it shorter in the back (and also had finally mustered the courage to go shorter, I was so scared originally, I didn't want to look weird! lol) because I knew it would grow out extremely fast and thought it would look so good shorter too. She was so completely gracious to me and I set up another time for me to come in a couple of days later for her to kind of hike it up some more. Pretty much she ended up completely re-doing my hair a whole lot differently because I asked her to and she was so happy to do it. I honestly am not high maintenance when it comes to stuff, but I just felt so bad for changing everything up YET AGAIN and being so indecisive but she has honestly been the most wonderful and patient person with me! I have never been so impressed by anyone who has ever cut my hair--Barbie takes her time and is extremely precise and I don't mind that at all. I would rather have someone take their time on my hair and be efficient than be extremely fast and miss a bunch of things and come out with a crazy un-even haircut. I left that salon feeling like a new woman! My hair was so incredibly sassy and I was so excited to show it off!
So with this extremely LONG but NECESSARY review, here's what I hope you take away from it:
1. Nova Hair Salon is one of the best in the Keller area
2. Barbie and her entire staff truly care about you from the second you walk into that door, and even after you walk out.
3. Barbie and her stylists will accommodate you and be extremely patient with you--they are always extremely attentive to your needs and give fabulous advice when you aren't sure of what to do with your hair.
4.They are always running specials and great deals for haircuts/services so you are getting great quality for a super reasonable price!
