I’ve been a client of Norah’s for over 15 years and love how she does my hair! I am mixed race with long thick curly hair that she has masterfully straightened, styled and colored over the years. In the last year we have started a transition to gray blending with a shorter cut and the results have been phenomenal. Highly recommend!

Norah is my go-to for both hair and makeup. Whether it’s a gala or Senate testimony, Norah meets me at whatever weird time I need and makes me look invincible. I seriously love her - she has a creative ability to see my inspiration and make it real that makes me feel like my best self.

Norah was recommended to me by a friend and I can't say enough good things. I'm a creature of habit when it comes to my hair, and Norah took so much time to explain to me what differences I could see with proper treatment and styling. And she didn't just whisk me out the door. She took time to answer all of my questions and methodically went through how I can continue to care for my hair -- and have it look good! -- at home. I'll be back for more styling tips and a blow-dry session soon, but for now, go see Norah!

Amazing haircuts by Norah! Super impressed.

Norah has been providing me with exceptional hair color and haircuts for five years. She knows my hair and always does an amazing job! My hair feels healthier than it's ever been and the color is dimensional and so natural-looking! Norah is a true professional and her expertise is beyond compare!

I’ve been seeing Norah for a few years now and she’s changed my hair!!  She is extremely professional and knowledgeable about her craft and won’t just do what you tell her to do.  She does what is best for the health of your hair always and my hair is healthy and has grown due to her commitment and integrity.  If you want hair improvement and not just a cut or color, she is more than worth your time!

Nora has been styling my hair for years - and I wouldn’t see anyone else. Her unerring eye has kept me looking my best, with subtle changes over time, because she takes the time to know her client and what works best for that client. Look no further - you’ve found the best.

I was about to do a big chop on my hair because of damage over the years, but I decided to start my healthy hair journey with Norah. Norah skillfully restored the health and beauty of my hair, putting my worries and anxieties to rest. When it comes to hair, I’ve finally found my go to stylist.

Norah looks at my hair, considers the shape of my face and knows what style works best for me. I have always been happy when I leave her space at Salon Lofts.

In addition to being an outstanding hair stylist, Norah is an artist, avian expert, and wonderful person. I have followed her to various salons over the past three decades and now travel from afar to have her cut my hair.  She is dedicated to her clients and to making sure that each individual has the best hair cut and treatments for their personal traits, lifestyle, and happiness.  She has many loyal and long-term clients, with good reason.

I’ve been going to Norah for the last seven years.  She is very professional and creates beautiful cuts and hair color.  Norah’s experience and commitment to her craft shows in her excellent work.  I highly recommend Norah to new clients!

Norah is an experienced hair stylist with a great sense of what works bests for your hair texture.
I am so relieved to have found my stylist!
From the first consultation, she’s been a great listener and honest with the best approach to obtain my hair goals.
I have a C3 curl pattern that she has made look it’s best whether it’s a trim, blowout or a more complex haircut.

Norah gave me the best hair cut I've ever had! She was recommended to me by a friend and months later, I am still loving my hair! When I went to Norah, my hair was dry and damaged. She spent so much time explaining what products to use, and how, in order to get my hair healthy again. She also got to know me and gave me a hair cut that would best work with my habit of not really doing much in terms of styling. The end result was a beautiful, no fuss hair cut. And even after it grew out, it still looked beautiful! Thank you so much, Norah! Can't wait to come back!

I’ve been seeing Norah for about 4 years and she has brought my hair back from the brink of disaster!! I had a LOT of breakage and dryness and I was sooo worried my hair was just going to keep getting shorter until I went bald. I found her on Yelp, she had great reviews and I took a chance on her. The first appt was literally a consultation asking me so many questions about what my hair issues were, what products was I using, what styling tools and WHY I was using them. It was an educational and information session so she could first understand what she was working with so she could create a plan to solve the issues. She has completely restored my hair which is now down a little past my shoulders and the healthiest it’s been in my life!! She even did my hair and makeup for my wedding! She is a wonder and a gift to me and I’m very grateful for her efforts to give me a beautiful head of hair that I am so proud of! She’s not just someone who’ll put you in her chair and do the job without a care about helping you reach your hair goals. She genuinely cares about what you want for yourself and will help you get there and maintain it. She’s not just my hairdresser, she’s my friend!  Love you, Norah!!!

As a heartfelt thank you, I’m giving each client a handmade holiday gift bag this season. Come in for your service and take home a curated bag filled with love, featuring custom creations like epoxy art or candles, along with self-care treats such as lip balm, hand lotion, and premium haircare samples (the same products I use in the salon).

Some lucky bags may even include a face mask, sachet, or eye masks—each one is unique and prepared just for you.

This isn’t a promotion or discount, it’s simply my way of showing gratitude. Every new client receives a gift, and the tradition runs through late November to January.

Book your appointment and pick up your holiday gift—I can’t wait to see you! 🌟
