Had a first time cut with Joanna, and got a wolf cut. I have thick long curly hair so it was always a challenge to make alternative styles work. I'm super satisfied with the look and the best cut I've gotten ever. Joanna is also super nice and the environment was great! read more

Joanna was lovely, friendly, and welcoming. Guided me through my haircut and had a great chat! Thank you for fixing my hair!

Joanna is fantastic, she has been doing my super fine blonde highlights and triim on my fine hair since my 20s! (a really long time ago, ha). I know she is skilled in every area but this is what I can speak to! Don't even hesitate to book, you are in excellent, experienced hands and she is super fun and pleasant to talk with. Salon is cozy, the vibe is cool with decor, art and good music. (Tip: park in the neighborhood east of Lincoln). read more

I had the BEST experience with my stylist, Nik! She has such a cool, calm vibe, plays great music, and her studio is super easy to find. There's also plenty of free street parking, which is a huge plus. She was a doll, I called last minute with a self inflicted hair emergency and she was able to book me two days later! I came in for a dry cut because I desperately needed long layers. Nik absolutely delivered. She gave me the glammed-out layers of my DREAMS. I mean Va Va VOOM FACE FRAMING LAYERS! I am obsessed! I came in with clean, blow-dried hair (styled how I normally wear it) so she could see exactly what I wanted, and she understood the assignment. I have THICK hair, and she handled it like a queen. She gave me the full Victoria's Secret-era haircut I've always wanted. Truly the thick-hair layering queen! I'm obsessed and will definitely be coming back. read more

My experience with Trim was similar to my experience watching Showtimes Dexter. It started off great but fell off pretty hard. Let me explain. I had been growing by hair out for about a year and decided I needed a trim, and thought a salon would be best. Trim reached out to me and offered me a discount on my first haircut, so I booked an appointment. The salon itself is very pretty and has a great vibe. The cosmetologist shampooed my hair and began cutting my hair, and we were more or less off to a great start. Then about halfway through my haircut she tells me: "Hey by the way, I'm not going to give you a discount on this. Your hair is going to take some work." Honestly, I was embarrassed. I know it had been a minute, but I didn't think I was in need of an extreme makeover. And also, like, I'm not about to protest this when she's in the middle of cutting my hair... I figured if she's going to have to take double the time I guess she deserves it,but I was out the door like 30 minutes after I got there. So now I was straight up confused by my haircut doubled in price when the reason they got me in the door is because they offered a discount. All of that being said, the haircut was pretty good so I decided to call it a win and a day. Now here's the kicker. My brother was getting married so I decided to get a cut before the wedding. I specifically told the same stylist, "Please, don't cut the front of my hair. I want to be able to tie it back in a bun for sports." Tell me why the first thing she did after I sat down is cut no less than 4 inches off of exactly where I told her not to. It's been 7 months and I still can't tie my hair back... But it gets worse. The haircut was atrocious. I walked out of there looking like Ringo Starr and not in a good way if there even is one. Major league bummer showing up to the wedding looking like a Beatle. read more

The service was good. Everyone was welcome and the took me in as a walk in. However the work was HORRIBLE. I had long hair and I wanted long face framing layers but now it looks short and like a mullet. They charged me $95 because it was long But they didn't wash it. read more

I booked a haircut appointment with Nik and she was great!! I recommend her for anyone looking for a more alt/layered/textured cut. She was able to execute that well on my hair and I love the layers on the back. She also made conversation throughout the appointment and the atmosphere felt very comfortable. read more

My hair appointment down the street was abruptly cancelled 10 minutes before my appointment. The manager of the salon was extremely apologetic and said she'd contact a great place that might take me as a walk-in. I was met by Geogiana, a beautiful brunette stylist. She sat me down and asked what I wanted to do with my doo. I wanted to keep my wavy hair long and under control. Geo said, "Don't cut yet." She explained that in a month it would grow out for the better. She the applied some product and showed me how to style it. And suggested a shampoo and conditioner that would eliminate the frizz. I'm coming back in six weeks to have my ends trimmed. Thank goodness I found Georgina! read more

Nic is amazing! I've been wanting a great shag/wolf cut and she gave me exactly what I had in mind. Nic is the owner of the salon and I was thrilled to get an appointment with her.

Couldn't be happier with my hair and the service at Trim! read more

I showed her some pictures of cuts I liked and we narrowed down what I liked from each one and then how it could be applied to me. Definitely will be coming back here! read more

Decent first cut. As a man with longer hair, it's incumbent on the customer to be very specific on what you want, or you could get a bob.

Nik has been my stylist for so many years. She is super cool and does HANDS DOWN the best men's cuts in a great salon. She's the owner. Ask for Nik. read more

I get super anxious when it comes to getting my hair cut. Most men's cuts these days are just low fades with clippers, but I wanted to keep my length and was worried it wouldn't be understood. Nik made me feel super comfortable from the start, really listened to what I wanted, and delivered exactly that. I'm definitely going back! read more

Vibe: Gorgeous space, refreshments offered, chill music, nice ambiance. Difficult part: When I arrived, I showed example photos and talked through my hopes for my cut with the stylist I was scheduled with. I felt I was very clear, and she seemed on the same page as me. As she started cutting, I could tell she was using a different approach than what I've seen done previously when I've asked for the same cut, but I tried to trust her process. When she said she was done, while it was potentially heading in the right direction, It presently looked more like a flat wispy squared off helmet instead of a sexy, scrunchy French bob. I felt we had built a nice rapport, so I tried to effectively and kindly communicate that it wasn't what I'd wanted, and asked if we could spend a little more time on it. She quickly became defensive and proceeded to undermine my reality by saying it looked exactly like my request, and that I simply didn't understand how hair worked. She told me to sit with it for a week and come back if I didn't like it and that was that. I didn't know how to move forward, this was my first haircut in two years, since giving birth and raising my daughter. I was ready to feel beautiful and reclaim my body finally, and I felt ugly... though it was awkward, I requested to work with a different stylist if possible, to hopefully repair the cut and leave feeling good. Saving grace: In walks Brandee, who immediately met me with kindness and compassion. She didn't make me feel like I was a difficult person or asking for too much. I showed her my example photos, explained to her what I was hoping for and why the cut I had wasn't what I had wanted. She completely understood. Without undermining the other stylist, she validated that my cut was not quite what I had asked for and expressed confidence that she could fix it. She then proceeded to make me feel incredibly safe and comfortable, chatting with me about my life and sharing stories about hers, all while cutting my hair to perfection. I didn't think it could be saved because so much had been removed, but she pulled it off with grace and execution. This haircut experience started out stressful and disappointing and ended positive and satisfying. I'm very grateful to the front desk for quickly helping me shift stylists when they saw I was struggling, as well as only charging me for one cut. I'm deeply grateful to Brandy, who I will be coming back to, for making me feel sexy and cute again after having my baby girl. read more

Nik took such good care of me! I was nervous about a cut, but being so tired of wearing a hat everyday, I was forced! She sorted me out big time!

Having a salon that you love going to - and a stylist you LOVE and TRUST is A. priceless B. essential and C. a blessing Joanna at Trim has been highlighting and cutting my hair for 20 years! She's taken care of my hair through many phases of life, many lengths and styles and many many MANY highlights - and it's always looked great -- and healthy. And my hair isn't easy - it's wavy underneath and thin and straight on the outer layers - but the advantage of someone who gets to know your hair is that she can find what works for you - even if you have silver coming in or your hair texture is changing as you get older or get pregnant or whatever... Having a stylist who knows what does & doesn't work for you, who is always reliable and patient and thoughtful and who works in a salon with a great, relaxing vibe (and easy cheap parking!) is a TREASURE. Trim is the best! read more

I've been getting balayage/hair cuts with Georgina going on 3 years now. After moving to LA from the East Coast in 2021, I had the hardest time finding a good standing, talented, and worth the money stylist. I used to drive 2+ hours to see my stylist back in CT- and never blinked twice at the distance because of how much I loved her work and how rare it was to find good talent. Now in LA, I had been through the ringer with stylists, who were more caught up in their Instagram followers, charging $$$ and latest trends than doing solid work. Needless to say, I am SO thrilled to have found this hair goddess named Georgina- Geo is patient, a true expert in her field, and knows her worth. Not only this, but the kindest soul you will ever meet. There is no other stylist I'd trust and spend 6+ hours in foils with :) I always leave her chair feeling like a million bucks, with a huge smile on my face and color/cut of my dreams. I highly recommend Geo for all your hair needs! read more
