I moved here 3 years ago and am so thankful I found this place! I made the mistake of spending less…read moremoney in attempt to save and went to Hairzoo, only to have ugly orange highlights and months of regret! You get what you pay for! My first time was with Michele, and I loved hearing her story and passion about creating a talented and calm space for her art. She is compassionate and great at serving her clients! Loved my hair after! It's really a wonderful, clean, and serene spot. The last two times I was with Ali, and I loved my hair each time! As a busy stay at home mom, I usually only get my hair done once in a while so having it look good for the long term is a must. The first time around I specifically came in bc I was getting some family photos done for the holidays. I had some long layers and balayage (I'll attach some of the family photos done by Alyssa Vanzo Photography so people can see!) Most recently I came in to get my hair darkened and shorter. I'll be back again as a regular client! Also-- congrats to Ali & her upcoming wedding! Wishing Ali a special day, and even more wonderful marriage!

I had a really excellent experience at Nitty Gritty! Was greeted warmly upon arrival as a nervous…read morefirst timer, and Julia is an absolute superstar. I love the vibe of this salon - super bright, trendy, and conveniently located in the Village Gate Plaza. The website answers any and all questions about your cut, color, or wax in advance, with a demystifying FAQ page and a full before and after care list. My service was ~30 minutes long and I felt totally comfortable for the duration. Nitty Gritty goes out of their way to ensure their salon is an LGBTQ+ safe space - there's specific information on waxing if you're transitioning, an ask for pronouns at the time of registration, and a truly welcoming atmosphere for all. This alone will keep me coming back and supporting, but the fact that the service is so top notch is a nice added bonus. The reviews don't lie, Nitty Gritty is the best. Looking forward to my next visit and grateful to have this awesome shop in town!

Due to some of the guidelines hair salons had to adhere by, my hair wasn't blown dryer. This pic shows you how easy and manageable it was to style. Totally worth it!

I've been going to Metro since they were on Gibbs St. I originally went because I have curly hair…read moreand had been all over town looking for someone who knew about curly hair. Not so easy. Stefania (Metro owner) was the only stylist I could find that was able to help. That was many years ago. The new place on University is beautifully appointed and the service is always wonderful. Stefania and her crew bend over backwards to please. After the winter lockdown of 2020 my roots grew in so much I decided to 'just embrace the gray'. My hair is not a pretty shade of gray however. Stefania now adds just the right amount of color to make it attractive. I'm very happy with it. Before Metro I had been all over town looking for someone who could 'do it right'. Once I found Metro, I never had to go anywhere else. I highly recommend giving them a try.

I purchased one of their products and later realised I had the same one and wanted to return it…read more They did not tell me their products have a no return policy at the time of purchase when I got it. I did not open or use the product. Then I went to return it and they stated due to covid they do not do returns. I find this surprising as if they really cared about the pandemic they should have a mask policy in place and other protocols. In summary, I would not make purchases here as their products are overpriced and they have a no return policy that is not told to you until you try to make a return.

Arrived 15 mins early and walked into bouquet that sells products and clothes. I was escorted to a set of chairs to wait for my time. I was seated in a high traffic area that everyone walks by. I waited 20 mins in the chair. Was not offered anything to drink. Another lady came in and the tech said let me get you a glass of wine. No one even acknowledged that the tech was running late. Upon entering the pedicure/nail area I noticed it was a very loud environment. For $60 for a pedicure I expected more. Asena was friendly but you can tell either she was rushed or new. I had quit a bit of dead skin around my cuticles still after and had to ask her to do it again. I was then placed under a fan which didn't cover all my toes to dry and was blowing cold air. I saw a dryer open and asked to move under it and it had heat. I didn't noticed the spa music playing at all until I was getting ready to leave as that is how noisy it was.
