Let's face it- the past year and all the quarantining has been difficult on us all. Especially our…read morehair. My hair was in serious need of some major professional TLC -- alas, I had not established a new stylist since the last shop closed up. So what's a girl to do? Well, I went looking and found Hair Nation on Tiverton in Lexington, KY. From my initial phone call with Courtney, until I walked out the door well coiffed, the service was phenomenal. Many of what might be termed "upscale" salons can be pretentious. Many of the friendliest places tend to not be cutting edge. Hair Nation is a perfect blend of the two - which is exactly what you want. High end hair care and styles with personable folks staff who listen to you. The ease of making an appointment and the welcoming way you are greeted by Courtney, makes a diva feel pampered, as she should be. Little chocolate covered grapes are yours for the indulging and you are immediately offered complimentary coffee, tea, or water. Social distancing and cleaning are in place and soon you are whisked away for your private consult with your stylist. I was fortunate enough to get Stephanie's chair for this, my first visit. How glad I did. Stephanie asked questions, listened, and provided exactly what my quarantine hair needed. The products she suggested were the ones I were going to ask about myself. She suggested but was never pushy about products She gave me a stellar haircut and took time to style it meticulously. There are lots of good reasons to go to Hair Nation, but Stephanie and Courtney , might just be the best two reasons for making an appointment. Heavy metal rocks the front of the house while you wait for your stylist, while zen-like tranquility is yours at the wash station. Prices were very reasonable and service was extraordinary. And in just a while I walked out of the salon feeling like a million bucks while spending nowhere near that. I highly recommend you give them a try. I don't think you'll be sorry you did. Tell Courtney Geneva sent you. P.S. Did I mention they have wine?

Viktoriya was my stylist & although we weren't able to get the red out of my hair she did a great job at making me feel comfortable with how I left & barely charged me for anything she did today. I will be back in a couple days to try to get the rest of the red out. I highly recommend hair nation & viktoriya as a stylist. Update: I went back today to finish getting rid of my red hair & it went fantastic! I am in love with my new hair!

I didn't love the cut and the salon experience wasn't enough to bring me back. When I arrived, I was intrigued by the setup. Several individual service providers, in the space. I found Chrissy and her little spot. I liked that we could talk, without interruption of other people. Her area is comfortable and clean. We chatted about my expectations and I showed her pictures of the look I wanted to achieve. She started the process with a wonderful message. The cut and style were done while we chatted. She asked me questions and adjusted her approach with my input. I left with the style I had asked for. It's a great cut! I am beyond pleased with my decision!
