After one of my many visits.
Melissa L.

This review is long overdue. I typically wait a year to write a review for a hair salon; however, it has been almost 3 years. Yikes! After having been spoiled by stylists from La Jolla, to Manhattan Beach to Pasadena, CA, after relocating to the PNW, I started my search in Portland. After a few failed attempts in coordinating appointments at top salons in Portland (they rescheduled and then I had to reschedule, then they rescheduled), I asked a colleague where she had just gone (her coloring looked fantastic). She referred me to Nico Bella. I called and immediately got an appointment with Wendee. Located in downtown Camas, I have always been able to find a parking spot within a block. Its a cute little shop that offers other treatments (I have used the manicurist, too). Once having my hair done by Wendee, I have never wandered. It's refreshing to have a stylist give you an honest opinion when experimenting with a new hairdo or look. Plus, I look forward to escaping the hectic work day to her quiet salon and leaving revitalized. As if that wasn't enough, during Covid, she has developed the best salon safety protocols hands down. I have sent multiple family members to visit her salon, feeling assured that she follows so many safety protocols. Plus, family members have left feeling the way I do. As I have discovered in the PNW, you don't need to be in the big city, to find a gem.

Wendee-hot roots
Stephanie R.

Poor experience with Wendee. It is extremely hard for a mom of younger kids to get away for 2 hours for a hair appt and this ended up taking 4 hours! I will not be moving forward with Wendee for my hair. She projected such confidence about being able to achieve the lighter look I was hoping for (nothing complicated, just highlights as in a pic I showed her). I ended up leaving with even darker hair and I'm now much further away from what my hair goal was. She was very aggressive with making an appt to come back for highlights after, which again, very difficult for a working mom, and she seemed like all talk about achieving the color. I suggested a partial refund for the "highlights" because there are none, but she just kept insisting on making an appt. In the light it is just very dark, solid brown. When she saw the hotspots on my roots from her initial color she seemed to panic a bit (and feel annoyed) and quickly put color on it because she had another client coming in. It felt like she was very unsure of the response and just trying to cover it up rather than taking the time to discuss or explain that. Very disappointing considering the quality of social media marketing. Response to Nico Bella response: As the salon owner, I assume it is Wendee or a family member who responds to reviews. Wendee's response to my hair goal prior to starting was "I can totally do it, I'm the best at what I do" and that afterwards, I would "come in for highlight touch-ups once per quarter to maintain". I believed in your confidence. "I'm good" immediately after the service meant "no" to scheduling and relief that my hair was not damaged in this process. With regard to the gray roots--there is 1 small section, this was not necessarily a "root" job considering the small amount of gray in 1 spot. I believe Wendee has done beautiful work on others based on her social media photos. Unfortunately, she made a big claim of what she was going to deliver, and the results were not that. There are no highlights, I have a darker shade of brown than what I started with, notable at the roots. Again, I am relieved this did not result in damage to my hair. After the experience of this, I was trying to be polite and did not feel comfortable returning, even after this ended up costing over $200. After insisting she could do highlights at another appt and our conversation about how things turned out far from the initial consultation, of course I would not return. This was an unfortunate experience for both of us.

Lines through my roots and brassy color.

Had a terrible experience at this salon with stylist and owner Wendee. She displayed extremely rude behavior towards me just as some of the other reviews have stated as well as a poor color/cut service. I went in for blonde highlights (came in with light brown hair) and left with brassy hair and lines in the color near my scalp. The color was nothing like the photo I showed her for reference. I messaged afterwards to express my concerns and she was very snappy with me but allowed me to come in to "fix the problem". When I got there she said there was nothing wrong with the color and yelled for anyone else in the salon to come look. When I expressed again that I just wanted the color fixed she went off at me telling me "to go elsewhere then" asking "are you just a hormonal pregnant woman" "you can't come in here looking like a minivan and expect to be a Porsche". I couldn't believe these comments. With no hope of a refund I sat in tears while she tried to "fix" the problem. I was still not happy with the solution but just nodded my head and left because I was done with being treated poorly and belittled for speaking up over my concerns. Edit: I was not attempting to "scam" you or get a free service. You did a poor job on my color. It was not damaged when I arrived, merely light brown. I went to the other salons to confirm the bad color wasn't just something I was seeing. You went on to yell at me and insult me in front of your customers and staff. The review is just to warn others of my experience.

Wendee did a fantastic job! I'm super appreciative of all the safety precautions in place here. We both wore masks, she guided me through where to wash my hands and put on my smock, and she even changed her clothes between clients. Wendee is very kind and friendly, and she really listened to what I needed & wanted, and then made great suggestions based on the current state of my hair. It's been a few washes since I got my haircut and it's so much cooler than I even realized when she first did it! Highly recommended.

Me with my wanna be natural red hair and than BAM beautiful again.

I came in a bit damaged:/ (just check the photo) but wendee literally amazing, did a great job! The ladies working there know their stuff, plus HUGE bonus you can get your nails done while you get your hair did! How amazing is that! The environment is welcoming, place is easy to find, with great prices, and they carry great products.

Color by Wendee cut by Larissa
Kelly M.

Have had my hair done twice at nico bella and loved it both times. Wendee is a fantastic colorist and I'd highly recommend her to anyone who wants an honest opinion, great stories, and just the color you're looking for. I was very sad to read that one odd, rambling, negative review of Larissa because I found her to be very talented and easy to talk to. The cut I got from her was the first one I've had in recent memory where I didn't have to figure out how to fix it later. I would highly recommend Larissa to anyone looking for a cute, manageable style and pleasant conversation. I'll be going back to these ladies for years to come.

BEYOND DISAPPOINTED!!!! NO TECHNIQUE!!! VERY LITTLE PEOPLE SKILLS, SALE SKILLS SUCK!! . . . STAY AWAY FROM CYNTHIA AT ALL COST!!! She'll say she'll do something for you and does complete opposite w/out offering to fix it! She left my hair looking like a giraffe, SPOTS everywhere!!!!! When I called her out on them she acted like the spots were so small they were not noticeable, she fixed one spot but gave no mind to the rest!! I was at this place from 10:30 AM until 3PM to receive this poor of a job. Over booked or even booked appointments in between I understand IT HAPPENS but it's NOT okay for your client to leave with a job that is CRAP!!! WORST part is she asked if I at least liked the placement of the color???? Ummm, NO!! I asked for an ombré and received a horrible job of highlights(the dreaded orange look)!!! Nothing like the pictures I showed her not even remotely close!! Save yourself from a horrible experience!! ON TOP of the horrible job, the lady was POKING me with her nails and not apologizing! When blow drying my hair she was RIPPiNG it, I called her out of that too!! Once I did that, she decided she would start burning my scalp with the blow drier here and there!!! She was trying to talk to me while blow drying my hair, seriously the blow dryer was in my ear, I moved to the side and explained that I was unable to hear her with the blow dryer in my ear.. she repeated to do it again!! I couldn't wait to get out of there, I was upset to the point were I wanted to PUNCH this lady who then has the audacity to provide me her micro blading service card and tell me she would do mine for free hahahaha HELL NO!!! You ain't messing up my personality more then you have!! You don't do this to anyone's hair and continually lie to their face and tell them how great of a job they received, specially after they tell you it's not what they wanted!! Hair, eyebrows.. are part of your personality and you've done ruined mine!! Until I get this awful job FIXED which will COST ME more money!!! Cynthia, NEEDS TO GO! It blew my mind that she didn't even recommend product! Like that's part of your job! To make yourself and the salon money!! Had I not been so upset and wanting to run out the place.. I would have totally purchased product! Specially the one the owner suggested.. California glam 13:1 it had the most amazing smell and had great ingredients. On a lighter note if you can get anyone else to do your hair, the salon is very nice and the owner is very sweet she offered drinks and brought over magazines on a tray.. she has all the people skills one needs. I watched her cut hair, color and be bluntly honest with clients about achieving the outcome hair color they want.. I would recommend sticking with her!

Left side was BEFORE. Right side is AFTER Wendee corrected the icky dull grey ashy mess from a Portland stylist the day before.

She really took the time to explain everything and answer some questions I had about the Neveskin procedure. She let me know what to expect and when. How it would feel during and after. She did a phenomenal job on patient education. She did it with so much patience and with a smile. Highly recommend going to her for whatever you need. I was also explained the packaging and pricing without feeling forced to buy or pressure. Now for the part I was a little disappointed with. Because I didn't have a jowl or turkey neck she decided to do the hybrid facial. I spent $149 for 10 minutes of the neveskin and a 10 minute cold facial. So in total it was about 25 mins. I felt like I didnt get my moneys worth. I understand it's just a promo but if I'm not getting one full session how will I determine if it works? The studio is clean and well organized. Lots of free parking as well. ***I highly recommend this place, they offer a lot of great beauty services. I had a very enjoyable experience! I am going to see how my face responds to my treatment. I would love to continue with a few more sessions.
