For guys with short hair

by kjrand

I've been getting my hair cut by Eusebio for 18 years, first when he was at Doyle Wilson, then privately, and for the last decade or so, at CLARK NOVA. That says a lot. He is meticulous and a pro. I'm a guy who keeps his hair short. Whereas most guys would just go to Shorty's and get buzzed, which has its virtues, I prefer to have my hair cut by Eusebio because the cut stays looking perfect as it grows in, for weeks and weeks. This is an exaggeration, but he pretty much cuts each here individually. Instead of it taking 15 minutes, it takes an hour or more (including wash) so you have to want what you get in order to set aside that amount of time. I've never had a bad cut by him. At Clark Nova, they rinse your hair out when you're done so that you don't leave with little hairs everywhere. It's totally worth it. And Eusebio is a great guy, really down-to-earth, no attitude, no pretense. He's the real deal.

Style gurus who can make their magic last!!!

by LalaLaura

Fabulous!!

Experts in color and cutting, they do incredible work.Great atmosphere, no attitude.

Clark Nova Highly recommend

The staff at Clark Nova is welcoming and the ambiance is fun with an up-beat vibe.

I was very impressed with Jen's work, she is skilled and pays attention to what your needs are. I was in dire need of something new done with my hair that wouldn't cost me an arm and leg, which this salon did not. It was very reasonable. Jen always runs monthly specials. This is the first time in years that I'm getting comments and compliments on my color and cut. To top it off, she's friendly, personable, and fun to talk with.Thanks for the new look.

  • Pros: close to many great restaurants

BEST EXPERIENCE EVER!!!!

by hiendao

Love this salon. Great service. Great stylists. High quality for reasonable price! It's a small store with nice ambiance. I always ask for Jen! She is always fun to talk to and she knows exactly what I want when it comes to cut, color and style. I was going to random salons for awhile and they never got the color right or damage my hair. But that all changed when I found Jen. She was able to correct my color and repair the damage that was done and my hair went from dry to silky shine in no time. Price is great for the work she does for me. Highly recommend coming here. I always get complimented on my hair ever since I started coming here.

  • Pros: service, quality, price
