“Jim is fantastic! He's very professional, kind, meticulous with his craft and just a joy to be around and talk to. When I first moved back to Birmingham 2.5 years ago, I initially could not find anyone who could do the Japanese Straightening treatment on my hair that I had had done in Chicago. Then I found Jim's salon. He has been specially trained to do this particular hair treatment and he may be one of the only ones in the area to offer it. This treatment is different than Keratin treatments, as well as the Brazilian blowout. The Japanese Straightening is a permanent straightening treatment, that lasts until the hair grows out. For someone like myself who has very thick, long hair, that is partially frizzy and curly, I have found this treatment to be a life changer, especially since I'm a working mom with 4 young children. Normally, I never wear my hair down because it just looks so "big", but with this treatment, I can wash it at night, let it dry overnight, and then blow dry it for less than 2 minutes and it's silky smooth. I don't even have to run the straightener thorough it, but if I want it to be extra sleek and straight, it takes only a couple of minutes. I wish I had discovered this treatment back in my 20s! If this is a treatment you are considering, I highly recommend you check out Jim Ostrosky's Salon! He will set you up with a consultation first to make sure your hair will work well with the treatment. I can't recommend this treatment enough!“
“Alea was absolutely phenomenal. I’ve gotten so many compliments on my lashes! I did classic wispy lashes and they feel very secure. I followed the guidelines no water on my lashes for twelve hours and a couple days after I went to the lake and not a single lash came off. Sturdy!“
“Terry was closed during the manadory shutdown, but once able to reopen, he took every precaution to assure complete cleanliness, social distancing of clients, and mask wearing. I hesitated to even go to a salon once they re-opened as I am in the \\\"older group\\\" but Terry's precautions made me feel safe. He meets his clients at the door, allows only one client inside at a time, and he and his staff wear masks. I appreciate all the trouble Terry has gone thru to make it as safe as possible to FINALLY get a hair cut!! Thank you Terry. You are the BEST!“
“Tina is a fantastic, skilled stylist, and so sweet and personable. In fact, all of the people I've met who work at Hair Bella have been nice and helpful as well as professional. All of the customers I've seen leave there looking good. It isn't a huge salon, but always seems busy. Plus, there's such a pleasant and friendly atmosphere. I highly recommend Hair Bella Salon!“
“this place is great they cut my bob so well it was so great i can't believe how good my hair was“
“I came by and although Google says they're open right now and open till 7:00, they're not open The door's locked and as a matter of fact everybody in that little shopping center, I think there's four stores and everybody in those four stores, nobody's in the parking lot every one of them says open on Google but every one of them is closed So unfortunately, Google has it wrong so to the owner I wanted to make a review here so that you could see that you need to either update your hours of operation because see I'm 3 hours away from home and not that I came here for that but I did have to go to four different places because although Google says all four of them are open they are in fact closed so, just thought I'd throw that out there. Hope you guys are doing well. If you have gone to maybe some summer hours, our updated your hours, one of the biggest things that you can do is not be accurate on Google because nowadays as you know if I've never been to Texas I'm going to find out by using Google where is kid-friendly and who has the best restaurants and instead of calling the restaurants themselves I'm not going to do that cuz humans don't do that, I'm going to get online so the best thing to do is to be accurate online for sure. Anyway I just kind of wanted to give you an update maybe to update those things. Hope you're having a great week so far, Friday is a good day it just feels different lol Hope you are doing well“
“The barber/stylist I've used for many years recently moved there. I've been satisfied with Freddy's work, so I followed him. This salon is better lighted than his prior one, but otherwise there is little difference. The present location has a newer vibe to it.“
“Great haircut nice people for a great price. Checked all the boxes for a great barber.“
“If you’re looking for perfection this is where to go! Monica is phenomenal!
Specialties: Cut, perm and color, the best.
Stylist: Monica P.“
“Been getting my hair cut there for over 15 years. Anabel always does a wonderful job and she's so friendly too!“
“My daughter and I were so happy with this cut! Results look exactly (if not better!) than the inspiration photo we showed them! Highly recommend this place!“
“By far the best salon in the Birmingham area! It’s a beautiful salon and a very relaxing and friendly environment. The stylists and owners are all very welcoming and kind. Kristen is the best stylist I’ve ever been to and always does my haircut and highlights perfectly. I highly recommend for anyone looking for great hair and nail services!“
“Amazing manicures! I've been using Vestavia Nails for a few years now and have not been disappointed. They never rush through the manicures or pedicures, even when I bring my daughter with me to get her nails and toes done! Several other local salons we've tried have been terrible with kids. Getting frustrated, rolling their eyes, etc, but not here!! So friendly and so professional.“
“Nicole is the very best! I used to go to professional brow bars until I tried Nicole. She is so professional and I always get compliments.“
