I have been coming to Niko for about 2 years. I have very curly longish blond(grey) hair with some natural brown still hanging around. It’s coarse and color resistant. Niko understands naturally curly hair. She is a master at blending highlights, low lights and color. Now my hair has beautiful, natural dimensions! When it comes to styling she knows what will look good and how to implement it. She did a blow out with the hair dryer, cut and shape and then she flat ironef my super curly hair. It is silky smooth, shiney and gorgeous. After washing it a week later, the style is always perfect. Niko listens to your concerns, is kind and definitely a perfectionist. She will make sure you look your very best and that you are totally happy with the results. She is a 5 star color/stylist! I won’t go anywhere else!

I’ve been seeing niko for many years and she is awesome person and hair, makeup, eye brows and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. She has made my hair alot healthier etc… whoever Sally A. is must be one crazy lady and has no respect for people period. The world does not revolve around you lady. You really got your head up your a**

Niko is the best hair engineer/chemist/stylist/brow expert. She is very warm, welcoming and always accommodating. This is why I only trust her to do my hair. Her talent is truly second to none. I have Asian hair and she is truly the best at achieving the most beautiful color for your complexion. She listens to what you want and has that rare ability to achieve a look that goes beyond your expectations. To add, please disregard Sally A’s comments. I was a witness and victim of her lunacy. She barged in and ignored the fact that there were clients in the room. What sane person would barge in and interrupt a professional doing their craft? The first time she barged in Niko actually was kind enough to make an appointment at 3 with this extremely rude customer. This person then barges in a second time and tries to change her appointment and once again ignores the fact there are clients in the room with an appointment made in advance. No one deserves to be treated with this much disrespect. Thank you Lloyd for removing this hostile, toxic, force from the environment. She should be banned from this salon. Thank you Niko for my gorgeous hair and brows. See you next appointment.

Niko is my co worker and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my hair! Even thought we work together she still makes me feel like a client and always does the best of her ability to accommodate my needs! Every time I want to change my hair she is always honest and gives me so many options for what would look good on me! I love how talented she is and how she doesn’t rush and takes her time to make sure everything is perfect! Also my hair has never felt so good! She offers Kevin Murphy deep treats and recovered my hair from looking like a mullet and when others would use bad product. I wouldn’t change my stylist/co worker for the world. Trust me you wouldn’t regret seeing her!

First off, I would like to start by saying you should negate Sally A’s review. Being a new mom, this was my first hair appointment since the baby and to say that I was excited for it is an understatement. My cousin and I went in for our joint appointment(double duty because Niko is a boss!) Half way through, Sally came in, took time out of our SCHEDULEDAPPOINTMENT to harass Niko, saying that she needed to be seen that day and the next day. Niko was so nice, saying that she could accommodate her that day at 3, but she would not be able to work on her the following day because she was off. She left to ask other stylists in the building. We thought that was the end of it, but an hour and a half later, she AGAIN barged into our appointment to demand to be seen. Niko reminded Sally that she could see her at 3, to which she replied, «That’s not going to work for me» and continued to harass Niko. Niko asked her to please wait outside and when she was done with our appointment, she would come out to talk to her. Niko told Sally that it wasn’t the appropriate time or place for this type of behavior, but that woman was relentless! My cousin had had enough at this point and told her that this was our appointment and that she needed to leave because it was making everyone feel uncomfortable. Then she started arguing with my cousin! All this commotion and the obnoxious, rude lady progressively raising her voice in turn made my baby cry!!! So my cousin asked the lady to step outside. For anyone that knows Niko, they can help me vouch. She is one of the sweetest people. She looked visibly shaken up and it broke my heart. I was scared; I could only imagine how Niko felt. While my cousin continued to argue with the lady, I headed with Niko to find the site manager for assistance talking to Sally. I figured my cousin was still talking to her because if you would have heard Sally, she was talking in circles and not understanding. We finally found Lloyd, the site manager, who was an All-Star! He came over and took spoke to the woman. We’re not sure what he said, but she finally left, thank goodness!!! He even waited for us and helped to walk Niko back to her car. So thank you Lloyd! If you’re reading this, you’re amazing! That’s the real, full story. Aside from this woman trying to ruin our appointment, this day with Niko was fabulous! My hair looks and feels wonderful, as do my eyebrows. I’ve never committed to any hair stylist. I was always a stylist jumper; that is until I met Niko. I’ve gone to her for over a year now and I will continue to go to her because she knows hair and she’s the only one I trust! Check out her work everyone! It speaks for itself. She speaks hair :)

Niko is awesome! I’ve been getting my hair done with her since she started her career. I’m a picky client and I hate sitting in the stylist chair but she makes it a pleasure. I’ve got thick heavy hair and she works wonders on it everytime. I like a style with a lot of layers and texture and she hits the nail on the head every time. For me the sign of a great cut is when you can wash and wear it without styling and it still looks great. Niko knows her way around a pair of scissors I would recommend her to even the pickiest of folks.

Niko is amazing! She is incredibly kind, attentive and a hair wiz! I walked in with a mess of over-bleached over-processed hair and wasn’t exactly sure what I wanted aside from some sort of balayage. Since I was unsure I let her make a lot of judgement calls regarding my color and I’m so glad I did! It came out beautifully. On top of the wonderful cut + color she was very quick. I’m very antsy and hate having to sit for long periods of time so normally getting my hair cut is quite the chore. The time flew by and before I knew it I was done. Definitely will keep returning to her again and again :)

Niko is an excellent hairstylist. She cut and bleached my hair blonde and I got a lot of compliments. She did such a great job that now I’m a regular.

I have been going to Niko for years! She is amazing at what she does. On top of having various cosmetology licenses and general knowledge in her field, she just has a natural talent and understanding of how to do hair. She pays attention to the texture, length, color, cowlicks, and face shape to determine what would look best on you individually. Regardless of her skill set, she’s really down to earth and kind, and I feel that I’ve made a good friend by going to her! Highly recommended!

I met Niko at the brow benefit bar and I love the way she did my brows :-) When I wanted to get my haircut I knew I wanted to have Niko do the job. I love the place and the environment as well. She’s really awesome.

I have very specific requests for the way I like my hair cut and dyed. Nicolette has been the only hairstylist I have ever found that can successfully listen to me and give me the hair style that I want. She is very meticulous and detail oriented when doing my hair. So I highly recommend her, especially if you want something creative and complimentary for your personality and life style.

Nicolette is creative and attentive to the hair style that suits my hair type and my lifestyle. She gives great advice for complementing my face shape as well as tips to keep my hair looking great. I am always pleased with her friendly conversation as well as her attention to my needs as a client.
