Nina is my one and only! It IS POSSIBLE to find the perfect stylist DO NOT GIVE UP! She is a one-stop shop. I have never loved my hair more than I do now and she also sees my hubby for his cuts and beard trims, my teenage daughter for her highlights, trims and fun tinsel, and my 8 year old son for his fantastic baseball hair that everyone loves so much. Do not look any further. I am 35, lived in CA up until a year ago so I had access to all the fancy ones and have had the same troubles at finding a good hairstylist that delivers that whole package. I'm not gonna lie, it is kinda a big package! You need to feel comfortable in the salon and around them, they need to actually listen to your ideas and concerns, they need to deliver what you expect or discuss that your expectations are unreasonable and not just do whatever they so please to your precious hair, prices need to be fair and never a surprise, and you need to leave loving your hair. Nina is the only stylist I have EVER had that delivered ALL of this and more! I thought these stylists were a myth and if they did exist it was only in Hollywood for prices I could never afford. I have thin hair that never grows and have tried blonde in several different ways over the years. My hair immediately looks damaged, breaks and I lose a good 2 inches everytime even with the recommended trims and expensive products. Once you add blonde you're hooked and have to keep this damaging circle rotating in order to maintain your look. I have the grey's now and wanted to give the blonde another try, she told me I would need to be patient in this process in order to keep my thin hair healthy but she was certain she could give me the look and quality I was wanting. She delivered 200%!! I have been going to her for a little over a year now and I have such beautiful blonde dimension that still looks so natural, covers my greys, fades in my roots so I never have that ugly blonde to dark root line, and for the first time my hair is a beautiful blonde while being the longest it has ever been with ZERO BREAKAGE! Her customer service is on point, you never feel tricked, lied to or over charged. While having the amazing talents to deliver some drastic color changes to her clients as I have witnessed she is also never shy with her honesty on what is realistic or unrealistic to achieve. This is what you want! A stylist who has the insane talents that you know is capable but is 100% honest even if it means less money in her pocket. She absolutely will not provide you services that are unnecessary or damaging. She is such a super fun, charismatic, hilarious and caring person that is so different than your typical beauty salon stylist. You can feel that she truly is not happy unless you are happy. For myself, this is priceless! I never leave her salon without mascara running because we laughed and joked the entire time! The salon vibe is super fun too! If you ever feel tired of searching or like the good ones are too good to be true I beg you to give her a try. Thank you for all you do Nina, I would be lost without you! read more
