Nielsen J Salon in Beverly Hills was hands down one of the most amazing salon experiences I’ve ever had. Nelson is truly exceptional. He colored my hair perfectly, matching exactly the shade I wanted flawless and natural. His hands are magic, especially during the scalp massage, and the blow-dry left my hair looking absolutely beautiful.
The entire salon experience was professional, welcoming, and luxurious from start to finish. Everything about this place is done with care and expertise. I honestly can’t say enough good things about Nielsen J Salon.
I highly recommend Nelson and the Nielsen J team to anyone who wants a truly magical hair day ✨

I have been coming to Nelson j salon Beverly Hills for soooo many years honestly, I dont even remember. I love it every time, everyone one is super nice and extremely talented. Everyone in my family comes here as well. Great natural products, high quality hair extensions, my hair color last very long after I get it done there. I always have problems with my color fading out or getting brassy at other Salons. I always get treated like family here, I always look and feel more fabulous. Today I brought my daughter for her first haircut. She looooves it. She looks so cute. I love my hair balayage and I might try so hair extensions next time. They always listen and give me amazing suggestions. I never looked better. I strongly recommend this place. FYI, I drive an hour to see them and it is totally worth it.

I had such a great experience here! They did an amazing job on my hair and the blowout turned out perfect, exactly what I wanted. The salon itself has a great environment, and everyone on the staff was so friendly and welcoming. I left feeling confident and taken care of. I’ll definitely be coming back.

First time at this salon – Nelson is absolutely incredible! Been residing in LA for 20 years-we all know there are so many salons to choose from and happy to say finally found a keeper! Got four inches haircut/face framing money-piece highlight and base to enhance my mousy dishwasher blonde and cover the few grays. SO THRILLED!!! with the outcome. And all in under 2 hours – master stylist to the core. Time is money and this would’ve taken around 4 hours at all the other stylists I’ve been to. My haircut is beyond perfect with the long face framing bangs I requested from a Pinterest picture and he nailed it! Nelson and the front desk that greeted me were so kind and sweet, not common in BH. Thanku! Can’t wait for my next appointment. ?

I’m sharing my experience honestly because I think it may be helpful for others, especially anyone with fine or hormonally sensitive hair.
I came to this salon for K-tip extensions because they advertise specializing in fine and thin hair. I paid around $1,500 for the initial install. Unfortunately, after installation, the hair quality was not what was represented. After just one wash and light heat styling, the extensions developed a strong chemical odor and behaved very differently from my own human hair clip-ins. Some strands even melted during a burn test, indicating inconsistent hair quality.
The salon offered to remove the extensions and reinstall a new batch of hair. I was charged an additional price difference for what was described as higher-quality hair. During my original consultation, however, I was never given options regarding hair quality or informed that different tiers existed. The new extensions were the quality I had expected initially — they looked great, and the removal of the first batch was quick and painless, with no immediate hair loss noticed.
About one to two weeks into having the new extensions, one K-tip fell out and my natural hair came out with it. I contacted the salon and was told this was normal and likely due to brushing. I was offered a reinstall, but I decided not to proceed. After losing three out of the 85 installed K-tips, I chose to have all of them removed.
When the extensions were removed after about 10 weeks, I experienced significant hair loss and a noticeable reduction in ponytail thickness. During removal, I was told comments such as “it’s going to feel like you have no hair, but you do,” and “see, you still have hair,” which felt dismissive given the amount of hair I was losing. Roughly half of the removal felt easy and painless, but the other half involved a lot of tugging and pulling that felt like my hair was being ripped out. As this was my first time having extensions, I didn’t realize at the time that this wasn’t normal.
I was allowed to keep the extensions to potentially reuse later, and upon examining them, many of the K-tips still had my natural hair trapped in them. The density change was immediate and extremely distressing.
To their credit, the owner did personally step in, acknowledged that the original hair quality was unacceptable, and was responsive and willing to redo the install. I appreciate that accountability and professionalism.
That said, based on my experience, I would strongly caution anyone with fine, thin, or thyroid-related hair conditions to think very carefully before choosing K-tip extensions, even at a high-end salon. I believe the K-tips were too heavy for my fine hair, and that my hair could not tolerate the method or the removal process, resulting in significant hair loss.
I wish during my consultation that I had been advised against this method after my hair was examined. I went into the consultation expressing fear of hair damage and explaining that my hair had recently been cut too short, which is why I was considering extensions — but I was very concerned about long-term damage. I went into removal believing my hair would be longer and healthier afterward. Instead, I lost nearly half the hair I walked in with and felt more self-conscious than before. During removal it’s clear the k-tips were not fully dissolved and the stylist ripped them out with my hair still attached resulting in multiple bald spots all over my head. I’m extremely disappointed about the damage this salon caused to my hair.
I was previously an avid clip-in user and had switched to K-tips in hopes of being gentler on my hair. After this experience, I didn’t even feel like my hair could support clip-ins anymore.
All in all, I paid close to $2,000 and lost a significant amount of hair when I already had limited density to begin with. I’m sharing this not out of malice, but to help others make an informed decision.
