Looks Hair Design is a full-service beauty salon located in downtown State College since 1974, voted the best salon in the area for seven consecutive years. They specialize in various services, including hair coloring and cutting, hair extensions, nail care, lash extensions and lifting, and body waxing. The salon also retails high-quality products from brands such as Kerastase, Moroccan Oil, and Redken. Customers appreciate the friendly and welcoming atmosphere, describing it as a nice community. While mainly known for hair, their nail work is highly professional and often praised for being better than many other local nail salons. The inside is very clean, and the pricing, though a bit higher, is considered worth the quality of work. Clients have shared positive experiences with the staff, highlighting their friendliness and professionalism. Some reviews mention the dedication and skill of the stylists, especially for hair coloring and styling. Clients have received great care, with stylists working patiently to achieve their desired looks. The owner’s personal attention and quick response to concerns have also been appreciated. However, not all experiences are perfect; one customer shared disappointment with an updo and make-up service, noting the stylist seemed rushed and unsure, resulting in a look that did not meet expectations. Despite this, the overall reputation remains strong, with many customers recommending the salon for its quality services and friendly staff.
I’m from out of town and needed a trim, and I got the best haircut ever!! Kayla was amazing and so was her assistant! So friendly and I got exactly what I asked for!

Have gotten my hair cut twice here, two different stylists, both excellent! Super friendly, nice service both at the front desk and by the stylists! And of course I loved my hair. Would recommend!
