Nubian Hair Studio, LLC - Bronx (NY)

4 /5 Fatimah Calder: The service was great! I felt really comfortable getting my hair washed. The stylist was a great conversationalist. My only issue was the price change, I asked how much a wash and just a blow out ( no silk press) would be on the phone and was told $67 then got there and it was $88. Besides that the experience was great. If you want the basics I would advise to go somewhere a bit cheaper but if your getting an actual silk press I would advice to book since they are natural hair focused and won’t give you heat damage.

5 /5 Lauren Stockmon Brown: Fantastic establishment! As a tender-headed person , I decided to do traditional micro locs and I love my decision. It is an expensive decision. However, I am incredibly happy with my investment. I will never have to do blow outs / washes / dryers in the same way. The process is less exhausting and painful. As someone who has come from doing box braids for the last few years, and now is doing micro locs—- this experience has been incredible. I am working with two+ cosmetologists who are experts in their field and passionate about hair care education. I would HIGHLY recommend making the switch to micro locs and working with this staff to do so. The process is exciting and worth the investment if you’re interested in pursuing your locs journey.

5 /5 Tamara Thompson: My mom and I had such a wonderful experience at the Nubian Hair Studio! We started off with a consultation with Key and told her what type of style we were each looking to do. She was thorough and made sure we understood what the process involved. Key worked on both of us. My mom decided to do a new color and cut to a shorter style. I decided to get crocheted passion twist. Everyone was so friendly and very professional and the owner Alice made us feel at home. I would definitely recommend this place and if I could go beyond five stars I would! They work on all hair types especially natural, and they are skilled in different types of hair styles. Make sure you call ahead to make an appointment because they are in demand but they will try their best to work with you.

5 /5 Chidi Nwosu: Absolutely wonderful experience. In my whole life, I have not been to anyone better than Alicia. I havent been able to take care of my own hair for a long time due to ongoing health issues, and I went there anticipating to lose all of my hair, so I was expecting to get a big chop, but I didnt have to lose all of my hair thanks to Alicia. She gave me a detox, a protein treatment, and a hydration treatment as well. She also gave me encouragement in dealing with my health issues, and was very accommodating when I informed her of my struggles. The thing I appreciate the most is that Alicia always takes the time to show me what she is doing, what products she is using in my hair at each step, and explains why shes doing it. Even more, she gave me instructions on how to care for my hair myself at home, and optional products I can get for myself (if Id like). Shes not a product pusher, and she wants to get her clients to a point where they can do regular hair maintenance on their own. She is a masterclass in customer care, and if you really want to get your moneys worth, then visit this shop.

5 /5 Tricia Clarke: This is my second time at Nubian Hair Studio with Key as my hairstylist. I relax in Key’s chair, because I can feel confident that she is knowledgeable about her craft, cares about my well-being and feelings about the style, and genuinely cares about my hair—and my life. Also, the salon has a welcoming ambiance: from the music, to discussions, to moments of quiet, I always feel good while I’m there and leave feeling satisfied. Thank you, Key, for another wonderful experience! And thank you, Alicia, for your leadership in creating a salon worthy of its reputation.
