The salon is in a building that previously housed West 27 Styling Salon, which closed after 50 years in the beauty business. Founder Alexandria Eliason-Miller renovated and redesigned the space into Nirvana Salon & Spa.
The salon describes its mission as creating a space where clients and staff feel supported and encouraged. It calls itself a boutique salon that focuses on personalized service. The team includes stylists, estheticians and a makeup artist, and each professional lists their own specialties.
A visit starts with booking by appointment only. The salon is open Monday from 11 to 7, Tuesday through Friday from 10 to 7, and Saturday from 10 to 6, and is closed Sunday. There is no traditional receptionist, so clients text the salon or use the contact form. New clients fill out an online form, and the team follows up within 24 to 48 hours with scheduling details. Established clients can book online or by text. Clients can have a drink in the lounge before their appointment, and there is free wi-fi and a table for working during processing time. Parking is at the back of the building and the entrance is at the front. Children and extra guests are not allowed in the salon during a service, and silent appointments are available on request.
Hair services range from haircuts, blowouts and clipper cuts to gloss, color retouches, dimensional blonding, lived-in color and specialty corrective or fashion color. Extensions and keratin smoothing treatments are also offered. On the spa side, skincare includes chemical peels, microneedling, nano-needling and microdermabrasion, along with a range of facials. Waxing covers the face and the body, and lash and brow services include lash extensions, lash lifts, brow lamination and tinting. Makeup services include bridal makeup and makeup lessons. Listed prices are starting rates and may change. Payment is by credit or debit card only. Cancellations and rescheduling requests are asked for at least 48 hours ahead, and late cancellations or no-call no-shows are charged 50% of the appointment price.
The salon's stated mission is to make clients and staff feel validated and encouraged, and the team works toward a personal, boutique-style experience.
The salon describes its setting as a boutique space with an uplifting feel.
