Kyle E.

I've been searching for affordable quality salons for a kid's haircut and have finally found the winner! Trim NULU was recommended to us by a friend, and we finally tried it out. The appointment process was easy and we were able to book online. We had two options for a kid's haircut and the cost was $25-30. The salon is located on E Main Street, in the Billy Goat Strut building. With plenty of on street parking. We were immediately greeted when we entered and were checked in. The salon has two long rows of chairs with mirrors in between, and a comfortable seating area. We waited about 8-10 minutes for our appointment. The stylist was great and took the time to consult my daughter in the cut she wanted. She did a great job and took her time cutting her hair, then curled it. The finished product was a beautiful cut and style. We will definitely be back!

Katie's "balayage"
Aya A.

STOP and READ before booking an appointment with this salon. I rarely write bad reviews and I apologize for the length, but would never want anyone to have the terrible color experience I had with Katie Dunn at Trim Nulu. I scheduled a balayage and asked Katie to brighten some of my blonds that had faded a bit. Look at the photos of my hair before and after. The photo by the tree is my hair before Katie. The photos with the odd streaks is after Katie. Brassy. Abrupt. This is Katie's idea of balayage. Brie the salon's co-owner was very kind in promptly returning my call (on her day off) and told me that she does color correction "all the time". I understand why now. Well, the other two photos are after Brie attempted to correct my color, but my natural dark brown was "corrected" into an awful reddish tone and my blonds looked like ashy streaks. After Brie "corrected" my color, I waited a day to consider if I could just use root cover up to help with the double color disaster. I honestly could not believe I had been charged $300 for a service I was having to fix with a product from CVS. So I requested a refund for not receiving the service I requested (balayage). Brie did try, but the salon's CEO could not be bothered. I didn't know that after Brie attempted color correction, it is the salon's policy not to refund. I told Brie I would be posting a review and suddenly, the CEO decided to offer a 50% refund if I would not post a review. I don't want to be bribed to hide the truth, especially when I have to walk around everyday explaining why my hair looks insane, so I disputed the charge, which the salon is still fighting. Anyone who has soft, white blond highlights knows how long it takes to achieve that tone. In two hours, Katie destroyed all of that. When I went to Spoke and Weal salon for an actual correction, the colorist explained that Katie simply did not leave the product in long enough. How did two professionals at the same salon not figure this out, but the colorist at Spoke and Weal knew what happened right away? And was able to make my hair look great. Trim Nulu's CEO's response made it clear that if one of their colorist makes a mistake, it's your problem now, not ours. And what's even more unethical: here's only 50% of your $300 if you don't post a review. As a professional salon, wouldn't you just acknowledge two mistakes and give a refund? How unreasonable is that?

Aubree is amazing. I was nervous to get my hair dyed as I don't trust many with my hair. I'll definitely return. The vibe of the studio rivals my regular place in Dallas.

Whitney is simply the BEST IN THE BUSINESS!! She listens to what customer wants and delivers every time!!!

Trim NuLu is an Award winning trendy NuLu salon with an incredible reputation and amazing staff! Their newly renovated location is gorgeous and conveniently located. Brittney Rodgers is THE go-to stylist for my beautiful blonde highlights. And I love my cuts with both Chris Edwards and Whitney Clark. I no longer have to travel to Atlanta or NYC to get fabulous hair!!!

Kelly H.

As always Brittney did an AMAZING job on my cut and color today. I switched it up and did a balayage with long layers and absolutely love it! Go see her for all of your hair need's ASAP.

Love the blonde highlights from Brittney!
Dana D.

Love Trim Nulu! I always go to Brittney for highlights and she does amazing every single time. Super friendly and very accommodating- I'd absolutely recommend!

I have been looking for a new stylist since mine moved to Florida a couple years ago. I didn't feel like anyone listened to me, they just cut my hair the way they wanted to. I have been trying to stop coloring for almost a year and embrace my platinum but everyone else wanted to color or bleach it. Whitney took the time to listen to me and I love my hair every time she does it. My adult daughter told me "you need to keep going to her because she understood the assignment!"

Extensions by Katie, expertly installed and just lovely.
Yvette M.

I could never begin to put into words what a value Trim is to our community. I'll post a couple pics. I see Katie for color and past extensions and Chris for cuts. Sean's also amazing to work with.

I went in July 1 2025 for hair & makeup for my much anticipated first ever maternity photo shoot!!…read moreHannah was my stylist. My makeup was 10/10. Highly recommended. However, I am absolutely heart broken to say my hair was not done well and not HOW I ASKED it to be done. When I made the appointment, I asked for heat rollers to be used because even though my hair curls & holds fine at home, when I get my hair professionally curled it never holds. THE OWNER REPLIED TO MY GOOGLE REVIEW SAYING MOST SALONS DON'T HAVE HEAT ROLLERS. I WAS TOLD BOTH TIMES I CALLED THAT HANNAH WOULD BE REMINDED TO BRING IN HEAR ROLLERS. SO NOT ONLY WAS I LIED TO, BUT THE OWNER COULDN'T EVEN BE EMPATHETIC AND APOLOGETIC BUT INSTEAD BLAMED ME FOR NOT ADVOCATING BETTER FOR MYSELF. The morning of my appointment, I called again to remind them to ask Hannah to BRING IN heat rollers to use on my hair. I requested them a third time when I got to the salon for my appointment. Hannah shrugged it off, saying she believed the "velcro rollers" would only give me volume and not curl and that she would curl my hair with a curler & pin it for a few minutes to let it set. I trusted the professional, but I should have stood up for myself and insisted on using heat rollers. Within 30 minutes of leaving the salon, the curls were gone. I was absolutely devastated. This maternity photo shoot is obviously a huge deal, once in a lifetime thing, and I just spent $155 (tip included) for great makeup and flat, straight hair. I was so disappointed that my requests were not met. My appointment was scheduled to be three hours long, but it only took two hours if that gives you any idea how much shorter "pinning my hair" took than the heat roller method would have taken. I rushed to Ulta, seeking some sort of last minute option as I was absolutely heart broken that I had just spent so much time & money on my hair that was an absolute fair for such an important event. Ulta curled my hair for $30 and those curls lasted for most of the photo shoot. They also wondered why the salon wouldn't do what I requested and even said heat rollers is the tried and true method that worked for our mothers and grandmothers, having no idea what Hannah meant by "velcro rollers that don't curl your hair." Anyways, I made the best of the photo shoot (which was cheaper than the hair & makeup) but having to drive in 3 hours & out 3 more hours and spend hundreds of dollars and take off work etc etc I would have liked to have gotten the hair style I asked THREE TIMES for. Great salon, great makeup, etc but fine hair'd girlies whose hair may not hold a curl super well beware Photo is my hair within 30 minutes of leaving the salon.
