Best Salon in town
by LFraz at Citysearch
I've been getting my hair done by Nikki for a little over 2yrs and have never been disappointed! Nikki's expertise allows me to put my full confidence in her to do whatever she wants to my hair! The entire staff is very accommodating and they make you feel almost as if you were at home. As long as Nikki is doing hair, I will be her loyal client!
- Pros: Quality haircut/color, friendly atmosphere, convenient

Nikki = Best Colorist!
by CrazyBlondeBombshell at Citysearch
Nikki is the best colorist I've ever had!
It takes someone who really, really knows what they're doing to get my hair in check, and Nikki just nails it every time! My hair color always comes out looking so rich and dimensional.
(My hair is naturally blonde and thin, so I like to get some lowlights put in for depth, and I've had some really bad, traumatizing experiences with so-called "colorists" in Philadelphia)
She has the experience and the knowledge to know whats going to look good on you, and given the fact that she's a young woman like me, she knows what's "hot" and what's "not"!
- Pros: Nikki is a pro! Fun, relaxed atmosphere, great color, great blowout, great prices!
- Cons: There are none!
Best blou outs in the city
Contributor at Citysearch
"I have super super curly hair that I like to wear straight. Most hairdressers have trouble blouing it out si it looks silky smooth, but Nikki does it everytime. No trouble, no complaints, a great smooth blou out that's hassle free and doesn't take long. She's really very talented not only with curly hair but gives awesome awesome scalp massages!"
Best Blow-Out in the CIty
by Steph34 at Citysearch
If you have curly or unruly hair, this is the ONLY place in the city to get it blown-out straight.
1. I have very very curly hair. When Nikki blow-dries it straight, it is silky smooth and looks better than when anyone else does it. It feels good. Nikki is also one of the few stylists who've met my hair without anxst. No stress, no problems, just an easy blow-out that she does not complain or struggle with. Is my hair easy? No way.. but Nikki makes me feel like it is.
2. Scalp massage to die for: When nikki conditions your hair.. you get an amazing scalp massage. She should charge extra for this! I'll be in the middle of updating her with my life, but the minute her fingers start their magic.. I'm silenced. It's just tooooo amazing.
3. Conversation: Want a salon where you feel comfortable and everyone remembers you and you remember them? This is the place. Not only is my stylist friendly, but they are all friendly. Alex is also very pleasant.
4. SMALL and comfortable: This is a salon that feels like home. You have to experience it to know what I'm talking about. I bring my two year old son, and he dances around while I get my hair done and no one gets annoyed. He knows everyone by name, and they love having him. I can't think of another salon where a little child wouldn't be thought of as "annoying." They also let me bring my little dog who sits on my lap.
Overall, I'd rate the experience as an A+. And, you don't know me, but this is coming from a very very discriminating and particular hair person. I've had nothing but heartache over straightening my curly head of dry hair.... but they've made the pain go away, and I know if I ever leave town I'll never find another experience like this.
