My previous stylist moved out of state so I saw Vanessa for the first time on her recommendation. Vanessa spent alot of time on the initial consolation, explaining exactly what she was going to do to combat a few issues I had been having while trying to transition to a longer style. She made sure I was comfortable with her plan to change the way my layers were cut to eliminate some heaviness in my shape. She even had a new technique (that seemed to work) for cutting my side bangs which always lay a bit weirdly due to a weaker curl pattern. Needless to say, I am thrilled with the subtle changes that were made and will definately return to Vanessa for my next cut.

Went to Robym based on the comments here. I saw her once and give her very clear instructions, i.e. no excessive layering, no texturizing, etc and received a GREAT haircut. Fast forward to 6 months later when I saw her again, I made the mistake of assuming that she made notes about the stuff we had talked so extensively about at my first visit and let her do her thing. I received a bad cross between a soccer mom cut and the 90's Rachel from Friends cut. It's truly so bad that I'm having it recut into a long bob this week by someone else, and this with hair that was bra-strap length. I'm so completely annoyed that I could never recommend anyone see her.
Robyn is great. After Analisa left the salon, I started seeing Robyn. She is great, I like her just as much as Analisa, and she has curly hair herself.

Curly girl or not, Analisa will get the job done right! For many years I've searched in vain for a knowledgable stylist who could not only give me a nice cut and a decent style, but one who would truly work with me to get the best out of my hair. Thanks to the recommendations here, I finally found Analisa. She truly knows her stuff and clearly loves her work. She asked me lots of questions before she even started cutting and did a really nice job. She offered lots of great tips on caring for my curls as well as for styling them. It was refreshing to find someone like this! I've only been to see her once so far, but my first visit was so pleasant that I will definitely be back. I am recommending her to all my friends because she is terrific.

My husband did hours of research to find a stylist who could work with really curly thick hair (after years of complaints from me ; ) He found Analisa at the salon mentioned above and took me there for a wonderful pampering session. Analisa did great work with me and as busy as she is, spent time with me and really knew what she was doing! Check her out! Thanks Analisa!

After 25 years of bad cuts and total frustration, I went to Analisa with neglected locks but a hopeful spirit.
I did my research in advance and presented Analisa with several photos of a style I loved. She spent lots of time talking with me about the pros and cons of that particular cut, modified her angle accordingly, and showed me various products and techniques that will help me maintain the look until my next cut. Hers is an Aveda salon, but she didn't push the sale of those products too hard.
I'll definitely visit Analisa for my regular maintenance trims because she's *by far* the best stylist I've ever visited. I totally trust her to make my hair look its best and highly recommend any curly girl visit her at Salon Nouveaux. She's the best thing that ever happened to my hair!

AnaLisa is great. I have been going to her for over a year by the recommendation of this website. I have recommended her to others that have curly hair. He suggestions on cuts and color have had wonderful results. One time I told her to do whatever she wanted and I loved the cut she gave me.

I found Analisa thanks to this website, and I am thrilled with her work. She is great with my thick, curly hair and very honest about suggesting what will or will not work with my texture and length. I recommend her highly.
