The stylist are great, but the receptionist is the reason I will no longer go there. They always have an attitude and make the experience not worth it.

John did a great job refreshing my highlights! It was my first time there and he matched the previous highlights perfectly. He lightened them up a bit did a root shadow & gloss, evened out some of the previous color from where I had gone previously. He did exactly what I asked for, which I loved! Plus he was very nice to chat with during the service.

Nadine is a truly fantastic hairdresser, and she has a very pleasant personality. Her cuts and skill level are as good as it gets. She never pushes my teen kid to add processing/color and (kindly) discouraged her from getting keratin. I really appreciate how she sees a teen as still a kid, and does not push for more expensive chemical processes. I chat with the salon staff when I drop the kid off, they are all very friendly, polite, and professional. I see a lot of other hairdressers doing really great cuts too. I don't think you can go wrong with any of the artists here.

My Wife got a cut from Nick Jr. and she was incredibly happy with it! All she could talk about is how glad she was that she came and how good she feels about herself. From a Husband's point of view, I'll say she looks more than incredible and this is the best haircut I've ever seen her with! Thanks Nick Jr!

Could not be happier with my experiences here! I came in about a month ago for a simple trim with Wyatt and got a really lovely cut (1). He didn't take off too much length, which a lot of stylists I've gone to in the past often did. Today I came back in for a BIG color change (went from ~9 month old blonde balayage on a dark brunette base to a beautiful auburn, a color I've never done before) with Amber Lastoskie (@ambsthecolorist on Instagram), and honestly this is probably the BEST my hair has ever looked (the other photos)! She did a spectacular job and made my hair look even better than I envisioned! The color is so rich and my hair has never been shinier. I showed a few friends my hair and their jaws literally dropped because it is so gorgeous! Plus Amber was so sweet, just an absolute joy to be around. And the prices are very reasonable- high quality results that don't break the bank. I'm willing to shell out a lot for good hair care and what I paid was worth every penny. Could not recommend this salon and all the staff more highly!!

Booked through classpass because I had credits I needed to burn before they expired. Decided to get a little hair refresher. John did a great job, and was super personable! Also gave great recommendations on my hair concerns.

I felt like I was ripped off :(.... I gave a star for location & friendly service by the stylist. I was in town for work and needed to get my hair done. I was reserved with Kellie, she was friendly, attentive and provided advice. Unfortunately my experience at the end was disappointing. Kellie asked if I wanted to have my hair blow dried, I said "sure, but not straight". She grabbed the blow dryers and half dried my curles. In the end when the owner or manager charged my card she said $$$ I said WHAT? I asked her to brake it down for me and when she said I paid $50 dollars to dry my hair I felt horrible!... I asked her why she charged so much and told her I never get charged to dry my curles, it is nothing special... her response was "that's what we charge, next time say you dont want to have it dried" I wanted to tell her next time make sure to disclose the cost to your customers before you do it, but I was so in shock that I kept to my self. I did not get the color I wanted and my hair feels dry. Not going back and cannot recommend based on experience, but if you want go make sure you know the costs.

Thank you, John, for saving the day! I went to the same salon for 15 years but the last time there, I received truly the worst haircut of my life. I was convinced no one could fix my hair without cutting it all off and starting over. On the advice of a neighbor, I called Richard Nicholas Studio and was given an appointment the next day with John. Not only did he manage to work around the layered mess but he actually gave me a great haircut without cutting too much off. As a plus, he was charming and everyone working there was super friendly. Thanks again!

Just got another awesome hair cut by Nick Sr. I have been going to Richard Nicholas (to Nick) for maybe 24 years now? Haven't had my hair cut anywhere else in that time. I live in Bucks County now but I'm always ready to go to Philly for my hair! Honestly everything about the salon works on all levels. Highly recommend!

Amber was an Angel....... Story time.... After going to an "Aveda-approved salon" for over 6 years to get my color done, a new product and a new colorist at "said salon" had ruined my color beyond repair. I'm an African American girl with 4b hair and that salon left me looking like the black Billie Eilish; hot red roots w/ dark ends. When I tried to get it fixed, the exact words were "I'm sorry but I wouldn't feel comfortable fixing it, I can only make it darker." In frustration, I left and walked down to street to Richard Nicholas salon where I met the colorist Amber. Not only did she tell me that it was fixable, but also with confidence said, she can fix it with minimal damage. I appreciated her confidence because the prior salon made it seem impossible. Needless to day, I come back 3 days later for a color correction with Amber. She goes over the plan with me; and is clearly very knowledgeable about the product line. She first offers a color remover. In all my life, I've never had that process done, and trust, I even went to hair school (Eastern Center for Arts & Tech). Anyway, she put that on and of course, I googled the process myself (anxiety from a black girl w/ previously damaged hair) and it did exactly what she said it would with minimal damage. There was still that horrible harsh line left from before, so she said, we'll lighten a little but with water. Again, another process I'd never seen or done before. 20 minutes after that and a round of Olaplex had me looking like Sza circa 2018. Yes honey. My color was rich and even and my curls were still poppin. Nothing brittle or broken! She was super personable and literally catered to my hair 100%. Price wise it was reasonable considering that she literally catered to my color for 3hours; but if someone performs a miracle, almost any price is justifiable. Especially because if I went darker (Like the previous salon suggested) I wouldn't have been able to go lighter for full length hair for another 3 years. So I'll definitely be back.

Your receptionist never once offered me a refund! I was scheduled and charged for a blow dry I never received nor wanted or asked for. The colorist literally did not do half of my roots at all, you know the whole entire reason I made the appointment. So half of my roots are brown my original color and the other half are red/orange not blonde. Apparently she doesn't have the knowledge that you can color around where the hair extensions are put in by lifting up at 20 volume with color not bleach. The bleach would have been a problem not color. So now I will be doing my hair myself since I do know how to do it as my best friend owns a hair salon in NYC. I just can't see or do it all myself but apparently neither can your own colorist since she left half of it brown and overlapped my blonde highlights with whatever color she used and made it orange/red at the base which is all you see when I pull my hair back. There was zero reason she couldn't have used bleach around my hairline and the roots that have nothing to do with my extensions either to pull up the color to lightest ash blonde. Unreal. I've gone to my bank and disputed the charge. Zero consistency here. First time I went it was great. Next time/today they turned my hair orange and charged me $115 to do so. My hair is blonde. I came in to get my roots done. When I say I want my hair as blonde as possible that's what I mean. It's literally red/orange at the root and now I get to do it again myself at home out of the box or go to NYC to one of my people there. I can literally not find one good consistent hair person in Philadelphia.

I NEVER right reviews only read them. This salon is literally amazing. Kelsey literally fixed my hair from my old salon. She did both color and cut. She was so understanding and answered all of my questions. She was so patient with me and gave me exactly what I wanted. Highly HIGHLY recommend
