Great work and a family feel. This might be the best boutique experience in Essex County.

Luis and Nicole are the best! Luis has been cutting my hair since high school--and I'm almost 40 now--so that alone says everything about his talent and consistency. The salon is always immaculate, and I'm obsessed with the curved wall with the geometric line design--such a beautiful space. From the moment you walk in, they're welcoming, professional, and genuinely care about their clients. I wouldn't trust my hair to anyone else. read more

Consistently the best color, style and cut. I switched from being a dedicated NY salon goer to Nicole years ago and have never looked back. Who doesn't want to get stopped and complimented on their hair!?? It happens to me all the time! read more

I went to SoVella for a consultation appointment and explained what I wanted. Since I hadn't gotten my hair done in a long time, I needed basic maintenance before even getting into an ombré. Kylene suggested splitting into 2 appointments and she made sure I got what I wanted, even if the second appointment alone took 4 hours to get just the right tones. Everyone was so helpful and welcoming. It was nice to see unity and teamwork among the staff; it really makes it a warm environment. I found SoVella by chance on Groupon, but they definitely gained a loyal customer! read more

Sovella Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Bloomfield, New Jersey

My twelve year old finally decided she wanted to cut her long hair into a lob. I wanted to find a place that was local, and modern so obviously went on to Yelp. SoVella had great reviews so I called and got an appointment for the same day. As soon as we walked in we were greeted with a warm reception. The salon layout and design did not disappoint. It has a high end feel to it. My daughter was a bit nervous but Kylene, the stylist made her feel comfortable by asking my daughter what look she wanted and explained how much she would cut. Honestly my daughter's hair has never looked better. It is great knowing that my daughter has her own hair stylist now! I would absolutely recommend this salon to my friends and family. read more

See all

I have been going to Luis since 2006 and FINALLY he's established this great venue that just makes you feel at home and 100% comfortable. The quality and assertion for a great haircut is always there. The staff go above and beyond in making sure I get the desired time slots for my appointments and are great with the reminders. I would highly recommend giving Sovella a chance, because for the price and outcome results, you cannot go wrong. read more

I have driven by this salon many times and decided to give them a try. Kylene did an amazing job. I went in for just a haircut/trim. She listened to everything that I wanted and understood the plight of curly hair/ thick hair. She didn't even break a sweat when blowing out my hair (which I have seen from other stylists...not here though)! I loved the technique that she used. After she cut my hair (when wet) she went back through and cut some more after she blew out my hair. The salon is very well kept and very clean. It definitely has a chill/calm feeling! I believe I found my new "home" salon! read more

I visited the salon for make up service on 2/18. I was immediately greeted by the employees and because it was my first time I was handed a form to complete. I was offered a drink while I completed my form. Before my makeup was done I was asked if it was ok to take a before and after picture when I was done and I agreed. Kylene did my makeup and was explained everything she she was doing. She did an awesome job. She also styled my hair. The owner (I forgot his name.. sorry owner LOL) was great! I had a question about the Keratin treatment and he was very helpful in answering all my questions. Overall I had a great experience here and will def return. read more

Sovella Salon - I dont have a before pic but this was after! Very happy with my services. - Hair Salons Near Me - Bloomfield, New Jersey

What an absolute joy! From the second I walked into the salon for the first time, everyone was so welcoming. From the shampoo to the cut, I can't say enough good things. Luis spent so much time teaching me about my hair and giving me tips to take care of it on my own. This meant so much to me. I'm excited to refer new people and can't wait to go back!! read more

Wow, there are hair stylists and there's Kylene. She's a master at her trade and I wouldn't trust my hair this way with anyone else. I went in for a keratin treatment and she worked wonders! I could not be happier with the results and I look forward to a more frizz free summer plus shorter blow drying time! :) She took my poof away and left me with sleek, beautiful, soft hair. She is also fantastic with hair cuts! Kylene is professional, friendly and really listens to what her clients want. That's so important! The salon is very pretty and clean and the owners are both friendly and accommodating. Top notch service here! Go here and go often. I'll definitely go again. read more

This was my first time at Sovella with Niccole and I had the absolute best experience. She was so knowledgeable and helpful during my very first color consultation. She really helped me in reaching a decision on the right color for my hair. I am in love with my color and the blow out. I will definitely be coming back again and again and again!!! read more

Great People , Great Customer Service , Great deal! The first time I came here it was thru a groupon deal. I was looking for a new way of cutting my hair. After a 20 minute consultation with Luis, hairdresser and one of owners at the salon, I was confident he was perfectionist type. Days later I booked my first appointment. I left very happy. Luis took a lot weight of my hair. I felt lighter and sexier! He thinned out my hair with a scissor - no razor! Big plus for me. Two and half months later, I came back again and with a $10 mail coupon. Of course, I saw Luis again. So the second time around I left happy. It may have been 5 days later that I noticed my hair was not as light as the 1st time. I tried different methods of styling my hair but still felt weight. I decided to email my concerns on a Monday morning ( closed ) and received a response the following morning. Luis gladly accepted me 2 days later and resolved my problem without any charge. This is what I call great customer service. Yes, I love a great haircut accompanied by great customer service. Now details about the salon: It is located on a corner where parking is very difficult to find on the street ( no meters ), at least the weekday evenings it is. There are three stations in the salon and one sink ( wash area ). The place always looks immaculate and does have a seating/waiting are with magazines. Luis and Nicole do offer coffee or water bottles as complementary. read more

Always the best! Great atmosphere great people and never walk out disappointed. Both Luis and Niccole are equally talented! Kylene is wonderful too especially with styling for formal occasions. read more

Could not say enough good things about SoVella! Everything about it is just right! The minute you open the door, you feel welcome! Kylene is just fantastic! She does an amazing job at pin straight hair cut and wavy/curly haircuts. She is a PERFECTIONIST and always a warm hug hello and you walk out feeling great! SoVella takes pride in the salon and every customer that comes! read more

Their safety and sanitizing measure are impressive. I'm grateful for their salon service, precision, and positive energy. read more

Big fan. I used to go a barber for years until I realized that I should be paying more attention to my hair. Went to Luis and, for the first time, I felt confident in my hair and style. Luis was excellent in helping me pick a style and rock it. A little pricey (probably because I'm used to $10 at SuperCuts) but it is very well worth your time and money. read more

Been coming here for years and always great service. Nicole does a beautiful color job, I'm always happy.

Sovella Salon has always been immaculate. Now in the 'time of Covid' they've added cleanings after every client, a shield at the reception desk & of course mandatory masks for all. All these additional requirements have done nothing to deter everyone from providing their usual impeccable service. Nicole, Luis & staff are outstanding stylists & colorists who never disappoint. I'm so glad to patronize & support this local gem. read more

Finally got to go back to Sovella for a cut, color and blow out. Not only does my hair look fantastic and healthy - as usual - but their PPE Covid 19 game is STRONG. I felt 100% safe and the salon looks beautiful as usual. Niccole is my stylist and I cannot say enough good things about her. She knows color like I never seen before and they use wonderful products which I feel is very important in keeping you hair healthy. The stylists also continue to educate themselves in new styles and cutting techniques so I never feel like my style gets boring. This salon is special in every way and I highly recommend it. read more

Luis and Nicole and staff are awesome, they work magic with your hair! They take time to listen to what you want and make it happen!

The first time I came to this salon I wanted my hair to feel lighter and get more layers into it. I went to Luis and he did an OK job. I wasn't super impressed with the result, but I also was not dissatisfied. However, a couple of months later I went back to the salon for a consultation. Instead of asking a lot of questions and trying to meet my needs, Luis was exceptionally pushy and would solely speak with me about what he wanted for my hair. I was talked into that treatment (which also happens to be the most expensive--$300+). However, a few days later after doing some research, I called to change my appointment to what I wanted most. I received push back from both the receptionist and Luis. Horrible customer service. read more

So professional!!!!! Amazing work, i left so satisfied. Prices are good. Salon uses great products and stylist listens to what you want. My haircut came out nice and the conditioner left my hair with life. read more

Great people when I first called. I spoke to Nicole, the owner and stylist. Very friendly, and know exactly what to do with your hair in terms of how oily, or dry it is. I will definetly be returning! read more

I went for the first time today. I feel that for the price I got ample time and attention and an amazing hair cut. I'll definitely return.

I am very particular about how I get my haircut. We have all had the horror of telling a stylist how we want our hair and then come out with something completely different. This place was nothing like that. I made an appointment here after being referred by a friend because my stylist for three years had left. I made an appointment for 4 and got there an hour early. Better to be early then late. The place is small, but very chic looking. As soon as I walked in I was greeted with friendly hellos and the owner introduced himself. Although he was busy with another client he was nice enough to ask me what I needed done with my hair. He looked at my hair and made an assessment of what he was going to do. While I waited, the woman at the desk offered me a water and I waited. I got washed and the girl was very nice. She made great conversation and was very attentive. Once Luis, the owner, began cutting my hair he told me step by step what he was doing. He made me feel very comfortable and there wasn't any moment of awkward silence, like I usually get with most salons. The fact that he is able to do fades along the side and still cut the top so my hair fits the shape of my head made me very happy. Most salons do just the hair for men, but don't do the beards. Luis did my beard, which was very unruly, and gave me some tips to keep it well groomed. By the end of the cut I was more than pleased with the workmanship. Plus you get an extra 10% off as a first timer. I think I found my new salon for years to come! read more

It seems that the color/brand they dye my hair with fades very quickly.... And although Nicole does a good job, she always makes my color darker than what I want! I have told her that I don't like that dark... In the few times I've been there I haven't felt totally satisfied. Plus I think it is very expensive! read more
