In Short – You wouldn't know it from the classic white exterior, but this feisty salon--located at street level of the Archstone Apartments--is where British imports and veteran hairstylists Sonya and Christopher Dove whip up their hair magic on clients ranging from stylish mommies to low-key celebs. Just a few blocks away from the pedestrian madness of Main Street's shops and restaurants, the bright and roomy space is state-of-the-art yet warm and welcoming--orange tulip-shaped hair stations, shiny hardwood floors and reclining rinse chairs set the stage around the Color Bar, where…

Thanks to Nicole I look fabulous!
by Sheroxx
I came into the Doves salon with quite a challenging head of hair. I had been doing my own color for a while and it had a range of colors... none that looked good! NICOLE LEAL was my savior! It was quite a process to do my color correction and get my hair the same color root to end. Not only did she make it all one color.. the color was vibrant and amazing. What a difference!! Nicole finished by giving me the perfect hair cut. I appreciate a stylist that let's you know what they think, but at the same time takes the time to listen to what you want! I highly recommend Nicole!
- Pros: Friendly staff, everyone very upbeat and glad to see you when you come in, great service!
- Cons: non

Head turning hair!
by tiaral
Doves Salon has a wonderful vibe and courteous staff!!! Nicole Leal cuts and colors my hair and it has never looked better!! She is very attentive to your needs, takes good direction, and makes you feel fabulous! I get compliments on my hair all the time, from the random on the street to the professional hair artists for my shoots! Her cut keeps me "bad hair day" free and the color is so natural you'd think I was born a blonde!! I have reffered multiple friends and they all are return customers as well!! You always leave singing "Yay new hair!!!" :)
