I sound like everyone else on here, but it's true, Virginia is amazing with curly hair! I have struggled with my naturally curly hair my whole life, not after. Virginia, she has taught me how to control and embrace my curls. I will never go to anyone else for my hair again, Don't even think about her not doing hair anymore or moving. Highly recommended her not naturally curly hair. read more

Cori is the best. I only trust Cori with my hair care. She is kind and always listens to what I'm looking for

It's hard finding a stylist that knows curly hair and actually listens to what you want and makes it happen. Glad I found Sammy here at Salon Aura. She's a curly girl who gets that sometimes I want to wear it naturally curly and sometimes I want to straighten it and she can make it look great both ways! She takes her time and is meticulous with the details. If you want precision as a curly girl, come see Sammy! read more

This whole salon is 5 stars, I've gotten facials with Shayla that were beyond relaxing, highlights by Cori, and nails by Haley. everyone is so kind and I always walk out looking and feeling great. read more

Sammy did a great job doing my hair today! I've always had a great experience at salon Aura!

I've been going to see Crystal at Salon Aura for years. I have naturally curly hair and I won't let just anyone cut my hair. I get many compliments on the cut and color as she gets my vision for my hair each and every time. The salon is always neat and clean. The staff are friendly and inviting when you walk in the door and the prices are reasonable. I highly recommend Salon Aura if you're in need of a stylist. read more

Sammy is wonderful. I got my first curly cut, and am thrilled with how it looks. Bonus, Sammy is also a sweetheart and a pleasure to talk to. I'll definitely be coming back. read more

It's a very pleasant atmosphere and was greeted right away. The pedicure stations were open and clean. The area where you got your hair washed was very well lit and the water was just right. The station were she did my hair was well lit as well. The cosmetologist was wonderful and knowledgeable of what I needed and listened to me as well. read more

My daughter came in to the salon for a Deva Curl cut. I do not believe, on any level that the woman who cut her hair a) actually performed the service for which we were charged or b) has any idea how to work with or take care of curly hair. She ruined my daughters curls. Her healthy bouncy curls were left dry and frizzy without any treatment or product what so ever. She bluntly cut her hair into a triangle and left no style whatsoever. My daughter is in tears and I am mad at myself for letting it happen. I wasn't watching closely enough in the beginning. read more

Salon Aura - Destroyed hair. - Nail Salons Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Let's just say that waxing is not their specialty. It was my first waxing experience and it was lackluster. The sheets on the table were stained from massage oil and the floor was dirty. I was not comforted by the fact that my wax specialist said verbatim "I'm not good at waxes." It made for awkward conversation. The whole thing was a horrible experience. I left not wanting to come back but then remembered I bought another Groupon through the same salon for a different service. Hoping they are better at facials so I can update my star review. The receptionist was friendly enough, offering me a beverage as I waited but also had to rebook me same day due to poor time management. I'm wondering what kind of training these professionals have. read more

I reviewed this already a month ago, but for some reason, it doesn't show up here, so here it is again, after 6 weeks of growing it out. Bella does great nails, but don't let her touch your head. In spite of repeating my words back to me multiple times, that I wanted to darken my overall shade to a cool brown and to color melt a slightly lighter shade through my ends, she returned with only a cup of bleach. I explained again, and again... and. Again. Before asking another stylist to intercede. I left with wet orange chunky hair. I returned the next day, as she didn't have enough time to finish my appointment the night before, and asked her to tone the ugly orange (with clear lines across my head where she stopped) and again had to ask another stylist to intercede. Bella thought the color I wanted was too cool for me, and again opted to dye me a shade of copper. She then went to town with a razor, leaving random bangs and in unmanageable layers I didn't want. She kept repeating: look how pretty! I mean, not now, but when you wash it a few times, it'll look better. But look, it's pretty! I originally called with a groupon, which they instructed me not to purchase and said they would give me the cut/balayage/style at the $80 groupon prices. Ultimately, $150 and 5 hours so I can avoid mirrors for the next few months. Awful. read more

I've been coming here as long as I can remember to get my hair done, but I don't really get my nails done here that often. Today Ariana gave me a mani/pedi and she was by far the nicest nail tech I've had! She was polite and well mannered and gave me the most beautiful nails. I can't wait to work with her again soon read more

Virginia Smith is the bomb! I have been looking for someone that "gets" curly hair and Virginia is the only one in Omaha I've found after 2 years of searching. She is a Deva trained stylist and takes her work, your hair and your lifestyle seriously. My hair is happier thanks to Virginia's artistry! read more

Virginia is incredible. If you are in the Omaha area or close, I would recommend you see her and her only for your natural hair. She is very personable and professional. Her education level with Deva Curl is through the roof. I love getting my hair cut every three months by her. She never fails to keep me up to date on products (she knows I only use Deva Curl). Who doesn't love an educated and highly trained hair stylist??? Can't trust anyone with your hair it is your crown! read more

See all

Attention CURLY & WAVY HAIR ladies!!! Pick up the phone and make an appointment for Virginia, the wizard!!! She performed a magical Deva Cut and wash on my medusa hair. My original stylist quit, leaving me high and dry with no one and a hot mess of hair. I have been to 9 stylists in a period of 3 years. No one could cut my weird locks correctly or at least to where I was blown away. Stylists claim on their website to be proficient in cutting curly hair yet several I went to didn't have a clue. I'm sorry but If you don't ever wear your hair curly why should I believe you know what you're doing? When I found Virginia-it was a blessing. I had been looking for a Deva Cut specialist in Omaha and thanked the Heavens I found her. She knows what she is doing and that is probably why she is booked up for at least a month in advance. Since I was new she came in on her day off which is just unheard of. What a wonderful surprise. She truly takes pride in her craft and was even talking about how she would love to expand Deva Curl in Omaha since it is not well represented here. It does take a while to cut (my first was over 2.5 hrs with a wash) and it isn't cheap ($65-80 depending on if you get the wash or not) but your curls will love you and it's worth it. She gave me some wonderful tips that have made my hair healthy and I don't have to go as frequently for a trim as before. Make your appointment with Virginia today she is truly an angel!!!! read more

Salon Aura is a great place to go everyone is so friendly, The stylist listen to your needs make sure that you're satisfied with your hair, it's a fun relaxing place it's beautiful inside. Crystal is my stylist is she's really good! but they are all good! I get my nails done, hair done, Massages and facials & feet! the whole works in one spot it's great. read more

Salon aura did my daughter's hair today. The stylist had my daughter pick her own toner which ended up costing her an additional 50 dollars. When done, her hair looked grey. Was supposed to be blonde. I called them and they had no compassion or concern whatsoever. In addition to that, blamed my daughter. We took her to another stylist 2 hours later and they were appalled. They said the haircut was awful and the toner all wrong. Had Salon Aura been one tiny bit understanding and compassionate the ending could be more positive. I would do my own hair before ever sending my daughters there again or myself. I would like a refund. read more

The worst hi-lights I've ever received. My stylist was 10 minutes late for my appointment and I was her first client of the day. She offered no apology and still didn't start on my hair for another 15 minutes. I'm not sure if she decided that she didn't need to use a toner on my hair because she was trying to make up for her tardiness and not put her behind for the rest of her day. I'm very disappointed and will never be going back to this salon. read more

I hadn't had a haircut since February and it was really getting unmanageable. I called Salon Aura and my old stylist was no longer there. I decided to take a chance and go with Nicole. I was the first one there and masks are a requirement which is great with me. I can tell that they care and are attentive to keeping everything clean and sanitized. About the haircut. I love it and it is often very difficult to get someone to cut my hair properly. I am very and will go back when I need another haircut. We need to support our local businesses and I support Salon Aura. read more

I love Salon Aura!!! This is by far the best salon in Omaha. Not only is everyone extremely kind, but the salon itself is always clean and beautiful! I feel welcomed when coming into the salon and am always greeted by smiling hair professionals. If you're in need of a trusted hair stylist, you must go to Marina. She's simply the best there is, there is no other way to put. My mom and I have trusted her with our hair for 10 years. Personally, I always get blonde highlights, which Marina is exceptional at. I have never seen such gorgeous highlights, which are neat and look amazing!!! What a true professional. I seriously could go on and on about how great she is at everything. Go to Marina!!!! read more

Had a bikini wax with Erica. She really put you at ease and does an amazing. I definitely recommend salon aura and Erica

A friend introduced me to Virginia and Deva-Curl.....she said it would be life changing. I was skeptical. She was so right. I have had some really good stylists for my naturally curly hair but Virginia is AMAZING. My hair has never looked better. My curls have never looked healthier. And people notice.....at 46, I have never had so many people compliment me on my curls. (Ok, that may be a stretch, my mom said people stopped her all the time and commented on my curls when I was a toddler!) Other things I like about Virginia ...... She is very knowledgeable about the Deva-curl product line. She is a great listener and really works with you to create a hairstyle that works for you The Deva-Curl products are awesome! I've used several professional lines of curly hair products and nothing compares to the quality and results of deva curl. read more

Came here with a groupon for a highlight and haircut with Nichole. She did a fantastic job, for $65 plus tip I am blown away by the results. I'll definitely be back! read more

I called on Friday for an appointment the next day, Saturday. I needed a highlight and a cut because I had a job interview the following Tuesday, September 6th. Nichole, the owner, was booked except for a thirty minute time slot...not near enough time. I took it anyhow thinking I would at least get a cut. I was thrilled when the owner called me at the end of the day Friday and said she would try and work me in at different times on Saturday to get it all done. I guess they told her that I needed my hair done for an interview. I am a repeat customer but still, WHAT GREAT SERVICE! A big shout out to Salon Aura!! read more

Every single thing was very good; From the receptionist hello and her goodbye, you look great. Nichole gave me a full treatment experience with deciding what to do, cutting, coloring, shampoo, itemizing the cut and a style to boot. I felt pampered and professionally taken care of. Thanks! read more

I went here in 2018 the chick that did my hair did amazing. I just went back after a year cuz I was growing my hair out and I had a pixie hair cut previously. They lady was no longer their so I tried a different person that was recommended by the receptionist. It was horrible the color I asked for was not right and she cut my hair and it wasn't even she messed up the color and she even realized it and said to come back later I said no today it's getting fixed and it still wasn't when she was done with it it. It looked nothing like I wanted I even showed pictures of what I wanted so Their was no question of what I was trying to describe. I wanted full color and she just gave me highlights. I am disappointed cuz I spent $150 dollars on my hair. I don't recommend this place. At less she was truthful in saying she messed my hair up. But their was no discount or refund of any kind. read more

To be fair: this salon is only reviewing one employee as I haven't tried out the others. I went to Virginia to get a Deva cut. If you have naturally curly hair, you know what this is. If you have naturally curly hair and you don't know what it is, you need to find out. Virginia listened, quoted her prices, was friendly,but most importantly...she did an awesome job with my hair and directing me on how to keep it looking good until my next appointment!!! I had an awesome stylist back in Salt Lake City and have been floating around for a year now trying to find a new one...FOUND HER!!! read more

I recently received a shellac mani and regular pedicure from Bella. She was incredible! Bella did an stellar job, was very attentive and kind. I did not calculate timing correctly for my appointment and had to reschedule for my shellac. Bella was very accommodating and was able to get me in the next day for the second half of my appointment. I hope she's getting the recognition she deserves at Salon Aura. I'll definitely be making a call to the owner/manager to let them know how great of an experience I had with her. Thank you Bella! read more

I recently moved to Lincoln from Denver and was nervous about finding a new DevaCurl stylist, but Virginia exceeded all my expectations. I left feeling confident in my color and curls. She did an amazing job! She is knowledgable and remains current with everything Deva. I'll definitely be back. Thank you, Virginia!! read more

Got my first Deva cut with Virginia, who is amazing! My curls look so much better, they're soft and bouncy and defined. Virginia was able to preserve my hair length even though I hadn't been taking the best care of it and carefully went through each step of better curly care and styling techniques that she showed me. Thanks to Virginia, my curls rock! read more

I have the best stylist in Omaha, Mary Shey! She is amazing and never disappoints! I always feel so beautiful when she cuts, colors and styles my hair! She is someone that I trust completely with my hair and she is so amazing with colors and styles I always feel like I am in the best hands with her! I love the atmosphere of Salon Aura, is it laid back and comfortable and welcoming! Some salons in town make you feel like you don't belong, and they aren't very friendly, that is not the case at Salon Aura, they are so inviting and friendly! Best kept secret! read more

I have been three times to get my nails done and really want to like the place but each time with a different person it's been disappointing. I went back for the Groupon but honestly would rather pay full price somewhere better. The last time took forever, they charged me extra without telling me upfront and now it's been less then a week and I have to get them redone. I'm sick of looking at how bad they look (they are not shaped at all, bumpy looking and are peeling already)...I won't recommend and definitely won't go back read more

I took my daughters & myself here. We had 3appointments booked at 11:20, we didn't leave until after 7pm. The lady who took me back to do my hair tells me oh I don't color hair (um our appointments were set up for hair color.) We sat around waiting as they did other peoples hair. One of my daughter has dark hair, they bleached her whole head to turn it dark again & add blue. It was supposed to be midnight blue, it was varied color of blue & is already faded it hasn't even been 2weeks, plus her skin continued to be blue. Also the bruised the back of her head on the sink. They bleached my roots but not full strands of hair so the top is bright rose red (which was supposed to be burgundy) & from the crown down it's faded brown looking. My other daughter wanted the top of her hair left black & the bottom half silver. Instead the lady kept trying to get her to change her mind & it ended up being a dusty purple. We left saying it's ok, but it's pretty bad when people in public make comments! We have been dying our hair for years, thus was the worst experience. I would not recommend them to anyone. read more

Bella does great nails, but don't let her touch your head. In spite of repeating my words back to me multiple times, that I wanted to darken my overall shade to a cool brown and to color melt a slightly lighter shade through my ends, she returned with only a cup of bleach. I explained again, and again... and. Again. Before asking another stylist to intercede. I left with wet orange chunky hair.

Bella thought the color I wanted was too cool for me, and again opted to dye me a shade of copper. She then went to town with a razor, leaving random bangs and in manageable layers I didn't want. $150 and 5 hours so I can avoid mirrors for the next few months. Awful. read more

Salon Aura - Top left, what I asked for. Top right, weird broken looking bangs she razored. Bottom left, the weird line where she ended orange highlights - Nail Salons Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Just like the other reviews I also had a groupon that I was excited to use. I had scheduled a manicure and pedicure and arrived 10 minutes before my scheduled appointment. 30 minutes past my scheduled appointment time, my lady (Jessica) wasn't even at the salon. I ended up rescheduling because I was furious. Salon Aura needs major lessons in communication and customer service. I'm only going back because I have the groupon I received as a gift, but I would never spend my own money there. read more
