Giardino Lifestyle Salon

I had been going to a salon for years but my hair was not looking healthy and was shedding excessively and my previous stylist said "don't worry about it, looks good" I went to Nick for a second opinion and now I would never go anywhere else! He was patient, explained what my hair needed (I have crazy curly, wavy, long, coarse hair) he fixed my hair colour, did a beautiful cut and suggested products to me that that actually work! I have had so many compliments on my hair and complete strangers will tell me how good my hair smells! I can't tell you what a difference it has made going to his salon and when you have alot of wave and curls in your mane, Nick is fantastic at explaining how to take care of your hair so it looks it's best. I have been going to his salon for a while now and I'm so happy each time. I wish I was a stylist so he could teach me and I could help other people feel as good about my hair as I do! When I get complimented, I always tell people where I go. Thank you Nick and thank you to his beautiful receptionist who is always smiling and so kind when I come in.

As a former model, I have been fortunate enough to have the best in the business style my hair, but no one has even come close to capturing me and my personality like Nick. I have worked with him and also been a client of his for nearly 20 years. It is very difficult to express the gratitude and appreciation I have for this man and his work. I have never had an experience that was anything less than exceptional. While he has always made me look my best (or more accurately better than I knew I could), perhaps more importantly, he has always listened to my wants and needs. He has never forced his vision on me or pressured me into a style I regretted or didn’t want to begin with. After a number of years of working together, he gained my trust to the point at which I let him cut my hair short for the first time in my adult life. Most women will appreciate what a leap of faith that truly is. And it was adorable!!! It also took about 10 years off my face, and who doesn’t want to look younger??!! If you can’t already tell, I have a great deal of respect for Nick. And much of that is borne out of the fact that he has always followed my lead. While I am very conservative and classic in my hair choices, I have also witnessed some of his cutting edge and trendy styles. That said, he will never follow the trends but he will certainly set them. And if you want a style that won’t work on you, he will always have the courage to tell you. But he will also take the time to explain why it won’t and suggest something even better. Nick is incredibly versatile, patient, adaptable and talented. Regardless of what kind of woman you are (or want to be), Nick will transform you into an even better version than you dared to dream. Although experience has taught me that you should just let him do his thing because he will truly amaze you, and he has this strange vision where he can simply look at you and see how to shape you into your best. However, the most remarkable part is that you won’t just leave the salon looking amazing, but when you wash your hair and do your own styling (for me that involves no styling) your hair will still look fabulous. Nick will transform you so that you radiate a confident beauty you never even knew you had. In all fairness though, I should warn you that once Nick touches your hair, every other stylist will pale in comparison thereafter.

What an amazing salon! I had the opportunity to visit Giardino lifestyle salon for the first time today. Diane at the Front desk is friendly and accommodating. Nick is very talented and passionate about his profession he knew exactly how to cut and style my hair I absolutely love It!

Absolutely LOVE Nick, easily the best stylist I've ever been to!!! Managed to take my horrible hair and turned it into something pretty

Very very rude man. Does not know how to treat people. The way he talks about other clients and old staff. Just because you have a “nice salon” does not make you better then others. Heard many bad things and would not recommend.
