Nikki Ibarra is the best– I have followed her for 16+ years — she is the BEST hair colorist I have ever found. I moved away to WA for 18 months and I couldn’t find a Hair Stylist As good as Nikki. She had to fix the mistakes and cut off my all of my processed fried hair– soon(with time) I will have my long blonde hair back. INikki and will not go anywhere else!!!

Nikki is amazing! She did a wonderful layer cut with color and highlights that were exactly what I described as wanting. The staff is super friendly, and the salon itself has an awesome vibe. Totally my place to go for hair!!!

Wow! Words can’t describe how awesome Andrea is. I will try… I don’t know about you but finding a new hairdresser is always a scary thing. I just moved into town and feel that it was fate that I ended up in the skilled hands of Andrea. She is exceptional at what she does! She definitely has a deep passion for doing hair. From her explanations of how the highlighting process works(I’ve had my hair highlighted for years! and have never received this), to taking time to listen to what the end result is that I am looking for, I couldn’t have been in better hands. And, she goes above and beyond! Being the ocean lover that I am, she took extra time to give my hair the deep conditioning that it needed. If you want to see a hair dresser with 100% YOU in mind, schedule your appointment with Andrea. You’ll be so happy you did!

Teri Snell does a great job on eyelash flares. She is very accommodating with scheduling! Call Teri for eyelash flares. I am allergic to eyelash extensions and her flares are the next best thing — and reasonable pricing!

I have never had so many compliments on my hair! I had my hair done by Laura. My haircut was in bad shape. I have very fine slightly frizzy hair. I keep my hair and an A-line cut which I have found a great difficulty in finding a stylist who can cut my hair well. Well I’m glad I found Laura. My A-line is amazing. The color is also fabulous. If you are looking for a new stylist! Give this place a call. It’s a nice bright space with great stylists.

All the stylists at Inspire salon are extremely talented(I’ve seen them all for cuts, colors and shampoo/blowdries) and their customer service is outstanding. The owner is very delightful and they even have a hair loss specialist(Larry) who takes his time to talk to me about my hereditary hair loss and all the options I have now and in the future. He even has wigs and hair pieces in his office(including bang extensions, I can order). TOOCOOL!!! I’ve also had waxing and a facial done by Teri and she has the best hands & uses high quality wax! I highly recommend any and all pampering needs you have to be taken care of at Inspire salon. Did I mention they do shellac nails too?!

I just had my hair done by Kelly Somerville @ Inspire Salon and she did a sweet do! Love the low lites and hi lites and she finishes you off so good you need an excuse to go out somewhere special. She Is able to give you different looks so you can be a local beach bum or you can drive up north and pretend to be hiSci snobby!

I dropped in on a whim on my way out of New Leaf and Andrea was at the desk. I made an appointment with her for the following day, and I can’t say enough about the experience. First of all, the salon is gorgeous…very artsy, pretty, and funky — all at the same time. I was impressed with the products and did not feel at all pressured to buy, but I will be back to get some of the recommended items. Andrea was very kind, professional, and an interesting, lovely person — who also happens to be very skilled at what she does. The little things count in a salon experience and Andrea had the right touch and attention to detail to make the experience pleasurable and fun. I will definitely be back and will recommend her and the salon to others.

My husband and I have been seeing Maria for many years now. She just moved to this new salon… and I would follow her anywhere. She is excellent at color and also men’s haircuts. She has many years of experience. She is even good enough to participate in hair styling shows. The owner of the salon, Jessica, is very warm and welcoming. There is plenty of parking and it is also next to Way of Life and New Leaf, so you can get a lot done in one day there. I recommend Maria very highly.

I used the coupon in the Goodtimes for a free haircut with Maria today. She is awesome! I got bangs for the first time and I absolutely love them. I will definitely be back.
