I love the Nook! As a queer person I was having problems finding a place that is reasonably priced, nearby, listens to ‘no I really do want every color under the sun’, and knows Asian hair. I was told about the Nook when I was lamenting the fact that I was looking for an inclusive spot that fit the bill. I called and was matched with Myra. She is absolutely amazing. In addition to being amazing at styling, cutting (and a host in general), she was the first where the bleach didn’t end up giving me a dry scalp for a few days. Months later (need to go back soon!) I am still getting compliments on the color (I don’t mean 2 months, I mean I have been lazy and haven’t been in 6+ months)

Myra did a great job cutting my hair! She was super attentive, kind and did not stop until I was 100% satisfied with my cut. I went from shoulder length to a pixie cut a couple weeks ago and I am still in love with my hair every single day! Thank you so much Myra- I’ll be back!!

I was fortunate to be able to book a color appointment with Amy when I was in town visiting - this was my first visit to the salon. Amy was exceptionally thorough and took so much time with me! She made me feel cared for and I love the way my hair turned out. Highly recommend. :)

I absolutely adore this place, and my experience was fantastic. I worked with Wendy, who was super fun to talk to and took such good care of my hair. I wanted to go from dyed red to blonde, and Wendy’s advice made me feel like I was getting sincere, honest feedback about the process, but that I also had an opportunity to embrace the challenge and try something new. She was super clear about possible risks and about what the process would entail, as well as prices, so I never felt stressed or unsure about what to expect. I was also able to get a consultation before hand to talk about options. At the same time, when I decided I’d like to go blonde, she did a fantastic job! I’m thrilled with the color of my hair and have been getting tons of complements. I could talk a lot more about my experience of being there because it was so great, but I’ll just say that this is a really lovely, adorable, special environment to get your hair done— with great people who really care about the health of your hair and about communicating well. Thanks, Wendy! I’m SUPER excited about this new color! I LOVE IT!
