Best Salon Overall – Have you ever left a salon feeling self consious about your hair? Telling yourself "it will grow back" or "the color will fade over time"? I have. But when I left Nirvana Salon after having my hair saved by Raymond, I felt invigorated, younger, prettier, and I wore it down instead of hiding it in the bun it was so used to. I love getting my hair done by Raymond because he is so honest he'll let me know what style works for me and which ones really don't. He's funny, personable, and he really listens and ... read more

Best Hair Salon In California! – Nirvana is a wonderful experience. I went in for my first appointment not too long ago and met with a Hair Stylist named Christine. She was so sweet and had such a wonderful personality. She immediatley offered me something to drink. Once I sat down, we went over everything I wanted from cut to color. It was wonderful. We went through the color swatches and chose which would look great with my skin tone and chose a great color. Once I sat with my smock, I was immediatley asked if I needed any... read more

Cutest Boutique Salon and Great Stylist... – I've tried way too many salons in the area before getting discouraged and having to look online for something new. Nirvana has a great website (which i found on citisearch) with the stylist's bios and portfolios. I loved looking through to find the right match for me and my hair. I made an appointment with Raymond, who has a great bio and works with my hair type. He is iso ncredible and so nice! He wasn't pushy or snooby like most hairdressers (sorry gals). He was easy to talk to ... read more

Not What I Expected – From reading soo many good reviews about Nirvana, I didn't get the cut and style that I expected and anticipated. The service was great; all stylists that I came across were very friendly and outgoing. However, the main reason I went to Nirvana was for a haircut and my hair cut turned out to be below my expectations. Before going into Nirvana, I had long layers so this time I wanted to try something new and add more layers starting at the chin. My layers do not start at the chin, rather, the top layer s... read more

Great Hair Style – Jessica gives the best cut I have ever had! She really listens to what you want. I have a really hard time trying to communicate how I want my hair to look, but Jessica is able to deciper all the information I give her and give me the hair style of my dreams.

Average Salon – I previously went to the Atelier Aveda salon in Santana Row before trying out Nirvana. I have long, straight black hair, and requested someone who was good with Asian hair when making my appointment. The stylist they recommended for me did an excellent job with my hair color, making it look natural with subtle highlights. I am very happy with my hair color. For this, I am extremely thankful. The negative part was that I specifically instructed her to TRIM my hair and add a few layers only to the sides. I told... read more

The place to go for beautiful hair – Nirvana is the best salon in the Bay Area. Laure is a genius when it comes to hair. It is the first time in my life that I let my hair air dry and it still looks beautiful. Go see her or her staff- they are all extremely talented at their craft. 

Business response:

We love to hear from our guests! We appreciate the feedback!
