WHAT NYC SAYS ABOUT NICOLE

Hannah K.
New York, NY

"NICOLE is an absolute HAIR GENIUS."

Susan S.
Manhattan, New York, NY

"Coley aka Nicole is a must go to colorist. Such a gem, talented, and amazing person. I've been going to her for so long and I will follow her anywhere she goes. Girl does only the best work!! I can't even explain all the amazing color melts she's done -- so insanely talented and she's always learning/adapting. She's so passionate at her craft and literally the funnest person to be around, especially when you're stuck at the salon for 6+ hours (thick & lots of hair problems)."

Worth every minute and dollar!!!"

Nali S.

"Nicole - best hair colorist hands down! I've been a loyal client of hers for years now and she's transformed my hair in more ways than one always keeping in mind - my style, preference, skin tone to match my hair, and keeping my hair healthy!"

Tracey T.
East Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NY

"Nicole is a beautiful soul with MAGIC hands. Couldn't be happier with my hair and I can't wait to see what we do next with my hair!!"

Gabi P.
San Jose, CA

""Gahhhhh I can't deal with how much I love my hair by Nicole!"

Rachel W.
Jersey City, NJ

If there is ANYONE I would want to spend hours with in a hair salon, it's Nicole! She's not only extraordinarily talented, but she's so knowledgeable about her craft. I've been seeing her for around two years now and I've always known her to be someone to continue learning and adapting different techniques so she can stay ahead of the curve and give the absolute best to her clients. If you're a brunette looking for some color, she's your girl! I promise you'll be in good hands. After two years of seeing her there's no way I'd let anyone else touch my hair.

Jess W.
Flushing, NY

"She transformed my leftover pumpkin patch head into a glowing beige blonde mane - a feat that my former colorist couldn't achieve...
Thanks, Nicole! You saved me!"

Min L.
Auburn, NY

It was a pleasure to be a customer of Nicole. She is very experienced and creative. Nicole was able to bring my hair to ash light blonde with only two processes of bleach.

Thanks to her advise, my hair remains strong. As of today, I did not notice significant breakage of my hair and the color remains wonderful. Tthanks for the amazing service!!!!!

Lisa A.

"Today I got a haircut with Nicole, and I highly recommend booking appointments with her. She's a hair magician."

"Nicole is everything you want your hair stylist to be: cool, trendy, friendly, knowledgeable and listens to what you want."

Nikita A.
Manhattan, New York, NY

"Nicole is amazing. I had never dyed my hair, and was so nervous, but she nailed it.

She's really kind and funny, and I had a great experience. Will be coming back here for cuts and touch ups!!!"
