She is conveniently located on the hill for students. She is great at what she does and I highly recommend her! Prices are awesome. She washes your hair, cuts, dries, and styles your hair for around $20. You can't beat that for her level of experience and professionalism.

I made a request when booking my appointment that I wanted the best stylist whom could do a fad on hair and beards. The team member whom took my appointment assured me the stylist I was assigned was a new graduate and new all the trends and techniques. My stylists was very new and had to stop to ask a more experienced stylist for help on technique. Again was content with the look when all was done but the bread trim and hair cut did not meet what I was looking for the 40 dollar charge. Based on their reputation I am sure this Salon is solid, just not for what I was looking for.

I recently had an appointment at Jiva Salonspa. I thought my appointment was for 1130 but it…read morewasn't. It was for 11 o'clock I got there at 1115 so I was 15 minutes late but I thought I was 15 minutes early I apologized to everyone profusely for being late and the receptionist said that she'd go back and see if I could still keep my appointment the person that I had the appointment with was the top tier hairdresser and she said that yes she could take my appointment so I sat down in the chair the woman did not speak Only the minimum. I showed her photos of what i wanted. She began to dry cut my hair which I've had dry cut before so I was fine with it and she just seemed to act odd in that she didn't speak, smile, or ask any questions. She sat in a chair while she cut. That too was okay. At one point I asked her where the layers were starting. She indicated at my eyebrow. That was odd. I indicated I wanted layers to start at chin level. Honestly I was nervous to say anything because she created such a hostile environment. If she didn't want to cut my hair she should have said so. The cut looks like a different cut on each side. When the cut was completed (not near as many layers as I'd shown in the pictures) she asked me if I wanted a shampoo. What? Never have i heard of a shampoo after the cut. Obviously i said no. The entire visit to Jiva Salonspa was unsatisfactory and odd.

Went on a Monday afternoon, they got me in quick with no problem, and they had my hair done in 15/20 minutes! The stylist I had was super sweet, and entirely understood what I wanted. It was right around $20- not bad at all! As for the vibe of the place- super clean, neat, light music, and chill. It was nice, and I will be going back! 10/10 highly recommend this place!!

This place has been here for well over a year. It's slowly gaining more popularity but I generally like it because it's less busy than other locations. The manager April is fantastic. Knows my husband and I by name when we walk in. Her hair cuts are always spot on. She's friendly and you can tell she enjoys her job. Tammy has also been at this location for a long time. She's one to say it like it is and has a huge personality. But this is good! Not a bad thing. She's very nice and outgoing. Her haircuts are fabulous too. I've had haircuts by some other stylists here other than April and Tammy but my husband I agree they are the best. But I've never gotten a bad cut. I try to use my app to check in. This way I know how long the wait will be and it puts me on the list so when I walk in I don't have to wait long. They are no pressure with selling products but are happy to recommend.

On our 1st time 2 out of 3 cuts were ok, the 3rd was awful & we took him back to have it fixed. The next visit because we didn't want the girl that did a bad job on the 1st visit we had to wait a long time, but sucked it up because we were not going to chance it. The last visit we did an online check in for one boys cut, called to give the girl we wanted a heads up that we did the check in & would be there in 30 minutes as it told us. When we arrived she finished up her previous client & then without a word took her lunch break !?!? So we sat, and sat, and sat. When she finally was ready the same person who did a great job the first time did a HORRIBLE. My son looked like the blonde guy from Dumb & Dumber. The hair on his forehead was a straight line angling from just above his left eye brown to almost his hair line when got to the other brow. We won't be back.

I believe they take walk-ins, however I only go to a particular stylist so I always book in advance. The real reason I go there is for Katrina. A coworker with amazing hair raved about her and gave me her info. Though I used to change stylists frequently, I haven't left her for years now and will follow her wherever she goes. She is professional but fun, she doesn't rush you, yet she's very fast. She does the best platinum I have found and I completely trust her cuts, she knows my style. I like to experiment a bit and she's always up for it and always executes it perfectly. I call these years with her my "good hair years". Can not recommend her more highly!

I know this to be fact because my hair is just the opposite: tight, coily, and thick. It can be coarse when the wrong shampoo is used(like the one they used on my hair this afternoon. I only go to this school because I'm on dialysis and just need a little help managing my type 4C coily hair. For 2 years I frequented this school(2017-2018) and always brought along products specifically formulated to moisturize and condition my type hair. Now today, they inform me that my products can't be used(BS). I only stopped going to this school because the girl who was doing my hair graduated last December. I've said this to them and I'll say it here: It's really some shameful shit that as a school, these idiots don't cover how to properly care for ALL types of hair and their curriculum doesn't even cover how to silk press. There are people that specialize in the proper care of black hair as well as the silk press. These people are too lazy and too comfortable living in their white privileged world to offer their students knowledge in ALL hair types.
