Don't trust this business with your information…read more I booked a haircut for my husband at Nefisa Downtown after getting a haircut there myself. After his haircut, they asked if he would be returning, and he said that he may return in a few months. They then asked if he wanted to return a month from that day. He said he might be back sometime around then. (Really he just didn't like his haircut, and he had a hard time communicating that. That part is NOT the salon's fault.) Here is where things went wrong with the salon: They booked him for the appointment, which he DID NOT ASK FOR. Received 0 texts confirming this "appointment" in advance, and they charged us $34 to my card for a no show appointment HE DID NOT ASK FOR. Receiving this charge, we were obviously confused. I emailed directly with the owner to settle this. First they "don't have any record of this charge". Then they "do have it on record, and say it was for his haircut he went in for" Not true. He paid for this haircut in person the same day he got it. Then it's "Well he had an appointment, and he didn't show up. We can't issue you a full refund." Dealt with this for WEEKS now. Don't go here. Jesus fucking Christ.

I would definitely recommend this salon, although understand that its not going to be a cheap price if thats something you are concerned about

I have nothing but great things to say about Zach. He really loves his job and it shows…read more My little sister is a long-time customer and her hair always looks edgy and chic, short but not choppy. Zach was a professional from start to finish. He shows a thorough knowledge of color and could even estimate my bleach time based on the texture of my hair. I loved that for my uber-straight and thin hair, he only used a straight razor so my hair turned out beautiful and textured with no straight lines. My color was exactly what I described and perfectly to my liking. The thing that I was most impressed with was his ability to look at a photo of the hair style I wanted and duplicate it perfectly. That was the biggest issue I had with previous stylists - that they would start cutting and then stop when they got to a length *they* liked - Not the length I wanted. I know that short hair styles haven't made a full comeback yet, but I'm dedicated to keeping it cropped. It's nice to have a stylist like Zach in my corner, making all the tough cuts.

Ustena was very kind and certainly knowledgeable about her craft. Hilarious to boot. I knew going…read morein that it was going to be unconventional as others had put it, so I came in prepared. Pictures upon pictures. I have extremely curly hair and it looks wildly different when wet than dry. I had pictures of what I wanted, and what I didn't want, how it shrinks when dry, and so forth. I appreciated her tips and tricks, however, when it came to the actual cut I feel like I did not get what I wanted. I specifically asked for a stacked, inverted bob. I don't have that and I feel like at this point I am going to have to grow my hair back out to get what I wanted. The cut is even, looks nice and I have received compliments, the problem is it isn't what I wanted, so I feel let down.

Ustena is fantastic! She's not just a stylist, she's a hair artist…read more I wish I'd discovered her sooner! After several bad experiences with stylists here I gave up and only got my hair done when I flew back "home" to Los Angeles. Meeting Ustena changed all that. She's just as good (maybe even better, especially with doing color) than my L.A. stylist who I'd loyally gone to for 7yrs. Ustena knows hair better than anyone I've ever met... she's so passionate about it. She's also full of great advice and won't fry your hair just because your heart is set on a certain color (I find this commendable). Ustena genuinely cares about her clients and while her methods may be a tad unconventional, all appointments involve lots of talking so be prepared to spend some time here, she takes a personal interest in her clients and really gets to know you. While I like her approach and love spending time here, it's the few moments/hours of "me" time I get I can see how this may not be for everyone. (However even if you want something fast, I highly recommend you give her process a chance and then make a decision based on your haircare results, it'll be worth it!) Your first appointment you actually discuss your hair type/needs/desires/etc...you're definitely going to spend the better part of a day here but it's well worth it.... besides how many people can say their stylist cares enough to teach them about their own hair care? It's not just hair care either, Ustena showed me how to use bobby pins correctly... this may not sound super exciting, but I have silky/baby fine hair so bobby pins have always slipped right out. Ustena showed me how to use them the "right" way and it's transformed my daily styling options. Since I've met Ustena I won't go to anyone else for hair color. No one else could do it as well. When I wanted to transition from highlights, to a more blondish color, I brought in a bunch of photos to show her. She looked at the photos with me, asked questions and then came up with a color that was better than anything I'd brought in. Ustena is brilliant. A master of her craft. And I don't say that lightly. I'm so picky that I used to fly to Los Angeles to get my hair done and I'm thrilled that not only do I have a stylist I love here but I didn't settle either - she's awesome :)
