Hair by Nicole Kristina
Hair is personal — I take it seriously.
The Stylist
Meet your Orange County hairstylist
A licensed California cosmetologist and Paul Mitchell graduate with a lifelong love for hair.
Trained at Paul Mitchell with six months in Europe at top salons in the heart of Glyfada, Greece, before returning to California.
Specializing in custom lived-in color, cuts, styling, and bridal across Orange County — every visit begins with a real consultation.
Beyond the shelf
A curated selection of professional shampoo, conditioner, and styling products available at every appointment. For clients who want more, I build a custom treatment plan tailored to your hair’s specific needs.
Everyday essentials
Professional shampoo, conditioner, and styling products selected for color-treated hair, extensions, and styling needs. Pick up what you love, when you visit.
Custom treatment plan
Most clients walk into a store overwhelmed by shelves. I assess your hair history, lifestyle, and goals, then build a treatment plan with the exact products that work for you. Planning fee quoted at booking; products billed separately.
Recommendations are made based on the work we do together — never pushed. Ask at your appointment.
Your day, your hair.
Elegant bridal styling tailored to your vision — from the first trial through the final touch on the day of.
Founding clients
A small studio. Real attention. The first chapter of my work.
I’m building my studio’s portfolio in 2026 and taking on a limited number of founding clients. Early clients receive personal attention, considered work, and the chance to be part of how my style develops.
Photos of my work will be added here as the portfolio grows.
