I have been going to Nadia Hair Salon for approx. 1 1/2 years. First went to Anthony and then switched to Lee only because Anthony changed his hours and his new hours did not accommodate my schedule. Both Anthony and Lee awesome hair dressers. I have never walked out of the salon unhappy about my experience. All excellent experiences once able to get an appointment. What I find lacking with the salon is simply getting an appointment. This is the 3rd time I have had an issue getting an appointment. I have to leave 2-3 messages before getting a return phone call. I spent almost $500 at this hair salon at the end of March. I spend alot of money there and give great tips. The last visit I asked why is it so difficult to get a return phone call and I am told they are hiring a receptionist. I left a message the week before last. I left a message this past Friday, May 15, 2015. I left a message today, Tuesday, May 19th at around 11:15am. No return phone calls. I called around 3:45pm today, Tuesday, May 19th and got a voice. Kerri answered the phone. I explained my frustration and she said Lee doesn't work on Tuesdays and she hung up on me. I called back and got the answering machine. Does it take Lee, the hair dresser to give me an appointment? If you can get a return phone call back and if you can get to talk to a person, you will be so pleased with your experience. If you don't, you will be frustrated. The sad thing is that BOTH Lee and Anthony whom I have gone to are excellent hairdressers and I am so pleased everytime I leave the salon. I drop alot of money at this hair salon with Kerratin treatments, highlights, color, toner, hair cut and products. I always felt it was worth it despite all the money and tips I spend there. All that I ask is simply a return phone call for an appointment or someone to answer the phone so that I can schedule an appointment. I have been in the salon and phone rings and rings with no one to answer the phone. I have also been booked incorrectly and overlooked being booked incorrectly and at the salon longer than should be. I have overlooked all of this but the icing on the cake was no return phone calls and being hung up on by Kerri who said she just got into work and Lee doesn't work Tuesday's. read more

I'm 37 years old, but as a previous reviewer stated, I, too, usually end up with a "mom hair" cut and style. It doesn't take long to figure out that that's not me. Lee Barton has a gift of being able to quickly figure out what cut, color, and/or style is appropriate based on the individual and the current trends. I want to let my hair grow, but I don't want to be in that boring, stuck-in-between stage. I have a tendency of wanting something drastically different (then regret it later), but he was able to talk me off of the ledge. Lee Barton gave me a cut and style that made me feel youthful, yet elegant. It's a style that is versatile and easy for me to do at home. I'm a very busy person and I'm not the kind that enjoys sitting in a chair for 4 hours. Lee was attentive and worked his magic in about 45 minutes (including a wash)! He was easy to talk to and has a great sense of humor and style of his own. He is a stylist that I can trust. I posted pictures of my new style online, and the responses were overwhelmingly positive. The salon has an edgy, rock-n-roll atmosphere which I love. It's very clean and you can watch passers-by on Walnut Street, which can provide some interesting entertainment. The stylists all seemed to get along and have fun...drama free. Just as a side-note, if there was a category for best looking stylists, Nadia Salon would get an additional 5 stars! read more

I am very picky about my hair... and as a result, it tends to become an unruly mess because I am so afraid to try anything new with my hair. I went to Nadia today to see Lee I cannot be more pleased with the results. I have an upcoming wedding, so I didnt want to do anything drastic to ruin my "wedding hair" so he took the time to look at my pictures, discuss what I wanted, and I told him, I havent had bangs since 1998, and I am scared to go back to them. As he started snipping, I felt more at ease, and fell in love with my hair before he was even done cutting! He took the time to talk to me about not just my current hair cut, but how to maximize the wow factor for my wedding hair that is still 5 months away! I am so pleased with the service, we have decided to pull the entire wedding party from one salon to come here. Plus, my girls were all quite pleased to hear that there was a wide variety of urban hipster men to treat us like princesses. The price is reasonable, and I cannot say enough how happy I am with my non-mom, updated do. Thanks to Lee for making me feel awesome, Jeff for running an amazing salon, and the rest of the gang because I know you will make all of us look amazing on my wedding day. read more

I randomly googled salons in Pittsburgh and happened upon Nadia Salon because it seemed different than your typical beauty salon. I'm so glad I made an appointment here! The place has a chill, laid back vibe. It's perfect if you're not into the pampered lavender- smelling salons that play weird pop nature music. But even if you are, this place will make you feel comfortable. I don't know what the reviewer that said it was "dirty" experienced? But in my three visits here, everything has been bright and clean! Anthony is my hair stylist and does an amazing job! I have been to over 20 different hair stylists in the past 10 years, and he's honestly done the best job on my hair. He really takes his time and listens to what you want. I have weird wavy hair that is sometimes curly, sometimes straight, so it's hard to cut so that it will look good all the time without much effort. However, Anthony has found a way to cut my hair so that it looks amazing no matter how straight or curly it decides to be. He's easy to talk to, but also doesn't force conversation like so many hair stylists I've gone to have tried to do. Do yourself and your hair a favor, and go see Anthony at Nadia Salon. You won't be disappointed. read more

I'm a 28-year-old who is relatively new to Pittsburgh and hadn't found a hair stylist yet. Had a pretty mediocre cut at MCN Salon a few months ago and knew I wasn't going back there. I have long dark brown hair which I really haven't colored since high school when I had awful highlights. I wanted something new and different with my color, but not TOO new and different, and I was definitely nervous to say the least. Jayne is SO GREAT. She listened to what I had to say, really looked at the pictures I showed her of what I liked, and extrapolated that to figure out how to make it look best on me personally (skin tone, hair color & length, etc etc). She gave me this fantastic ombre that looks beautiful- my hair does not naturally lighten in the sun, but if it did, it'd look just like this! The transition is seamless (I hate when it looks like people just dipped the ends of their hair in bleach) and I'm seriously obsessed with it- and have gotten so many compliments. I highly highly recommend Jayne if you need any kind of color. I will definitely be going back to her for the rest of the time I live in Pittsburgh! read more

After a terrible experience at a different salon, I called Nadia. I was really upset about my hair being ruined at the other salon, and I called to see if I could come in for a consultation. The girl who works at the front desk is the nicest and sweetest person I've met in years! She was so nice and understanding about everything, it made me feel like there was hope. I live far away from the salon and ended up being verrryyy late to my appointments due to traffic, but they didn't make an issue about it and they still kept my appointments. The owner and his wife both worked on my hair together, and they saved my hair! It is now a beautiful blonde color. Getting my hair done blonde is a huge change for me and I was so worried about it, but I don't have to worry anymore! I am so grateful to them for working with me and making my hair pretty again. Oh, and they always play great music. I will be back for sure! read more

I searched for a salon that provides the Keratin treatment and Nadia Salon popped up. When I arrived to the salon, I thought the set up was really cool - 2nd floor and nicely decorated. I was greeted by Mary Kay aka MK. OMG this was the warmest reception I have ever had in my entire life!!! My appointment was with Lee. Both, MK and Lee were wonderful, addressed me by my first name (and pronounced it correctly!!!). I had a cut and color. Lee did an amazing job on matching the color I previously had. He took the time to talk to me about the Keratin treatment I wanted. I am happy to say that as soon as my schedule permits I'll be making an appointment to get the treatment. Do I recommend Nadia Salon - YES, YES, YES!!! They make you feel at home and are not suffy at all!!! Thanks Nadia Salon Team. read more

I don't understand the last review. Nadia's is an outstanding salon in Shadyside. I have been a client of Jeff's for over 23years. His service has never waivered and he has delivered exceptional haircuts, hair color and a great salon overall. Never once has he disappointed me, welcomed me when I was unemployed, never charged me during financial trying times; providing me with the comfort to do my hair during my battle with cancer, and even offered home services when I was unable to make it across town to have my hair done. His professional skills are unsurpassed by others. The compliments I have received about my hair makes me feel great! I would refer, as I do always, any person to come to Jeff. Love Chris his kind wife and all staff who are respectable and make the experience welcoming. read more

I have been going to Nadia Salon for almost a year now, after having many bad experiences at other salons around Pittsburgh Nadia's is a breath of fresh air. Nadia's not only has a cool and classy vibe inside the salon, with floor to ceiling windows that look out onto Walnut St., but also all of the stylists and the owner, Jeff, are friendly and welcoming. Lee recently colored my hair red and it turned out amazing. He put the time and effort into helping me choose a color that was right for my skin tone and eye color. Lee has never steered me wrong in switching up my hair style or color. If you are looking for a great cut or color and overall experience this is your place! read more

Called them in the morning to see if they had two available appointments (to get my mom a makeover!). The receptionist was beyond sweet, and happily accommodated to us. Upon arrival, she gave us a brief tour, offered us drinks, and hung out coats on the wall. The overall atmosphere was welcoming, relaxing, and really fun! We were fortunate enough to get Anthony as our stylist, and his attention to detail was remarkable! We showed him pictures of colors that we had liked, and he was able to appropriately blend our current colors with the desired styles. The prices were reasonable, and there is no doubt that we will be returning! :0) read more

Came to this salon because of a coupon. Was planning on going to the salon once and not again. Well I was surprised, Anthony was a great stylist!!! I have been requesting a specific haircut for years and stylists would never do it to what I requested. Well I told Anthony how I wanted it cut and he actually did it! I love the way my hair turned out! So thank you Anthony for listening to your customer and fulfilling their wishes! Nadia Salon is worth every penny! read more

I have never written a review for a stylist but I have to say Jeff is hands down the best colorist I have ever had. I am naturally a dish-water blonde, have always highlighted my hair and now have to cover grays also. He suggested balayage and did an amazing job. I have never gotten more compliments on my hair color ever. The cut is also perfect. He cut and highlighted my daughters hair as well and it looks so natural and beautiful. Love him!!! read more

Was really happy with my experience here. I'd always gotten simple haircuts at cheaper places, but eventually decided I needed to try something nicer, since my hair's pretty unruly. I got Bruce, and explained the normal issues I ran into with those other cuts, and he was very knowledgeable and helpful in explaining how we could avoid them. First time in a long time I liked a haircut immediately on getting it. Will definitely be back. read more

Nadia salon has the most inviting staff in Pittsburgh. My stylist Jane has been doing my hair for 10 plus years and everytime I could not be happier. As a stylist she knows the exact cut and style that will work for me and is sure to give me a great cut and cool as well as great waxes. No matter what the occasion I know Jane will exceed expectations! I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a fantastic stylist! read more

Best salon in the city! Jeff and his team take their time, listen to you and have what it takes to make you feel good, look good and enjoy finding the right style for your age, personality and life style. The salon is low key and comfortable. If you want a color, cut and style that you have been looking for but just could not find...visit Jeff! LA Girl! read more

Lee has style and taste and did exactly what I wanted!! All of the other staff were very nice too! I love the music and the vibe inside this salon!! Recommend highly!! read more

I've generally tended to let my hair grow out as I am very picky about having my hair short. After many different places with mixed feelings, I went to Nadia after reading some of the reviews. Anthony gave me the best haircut I've ever had. It was the first time I could say "That is exactly the look I was thinking of". Going back soon, great place! read more

Jayne has been doing my hair for many years now and she is just fantastic. She's very attentive, careful, and knowledgeable and my hair always looks great when she's done with it. Even my sister, who lives in a different state, comes to see Jayne when she's in town. She's also great with kids. My son really looks forward to his haircuts! read more
