Rain Salon Studios

I go here to see Jodi for waxing. I’ve been seeing Jodi for a good 3 – 4 years now, and she is amazing. You can tell that Jodi loves what she does and really cares about the well being of her clients! After waxing your eyebrows, she puts some sort of soothing lotion on them to help calm the redness. After waxing in that downtown region, she puts a soothing solution and baby powder. I have SUPER sensitive skin so this really helps!!! Her wax is never too hot, and she never rushes her work even though I know she’s busy. She makes sure you’re comfortable and is so great at her job. I strongly recommend going to Jodi for any of your waxing needs!!! I believe she also does lash extensions! She is great at replying quickly to set up appointments, and she’s been a god send from my high school days to now! I’ll always go to Jodi!

Must, must, must go to Tonia Cooke. She does men and women of all age groups. Very up to date on trends, styles and great colorist. Bring photos of what you want and she’ll evaluate your hair, thickness and if it can be done — it will get done! I’ve been her client for over two years since moving here and I’m super particular about who cuts my hair. I do the P! nk hair style — ladies, you know it’s super short with a faux hawk. Not a lot of stylists — unless you go to a barber — can do great shaves, fades, and hawk. I get a ton of compliments on my hair and Tonia is the best.

I recently moved to Vegas from Texas and was so excited when I met Jennifer. I did ask her if she was good at color (of course I expected her answer) she replied «I’m a color expert». I decided to take a chance, which was hard considering I had the same hair specialist for 6 years. She is a delightful person and she was very knowledgeable in color. I loved my hair when it was complete and most importantly, I didnt have to find someone else to fix it. She put it color and did partial highlights that came out amazing and trimmed my hair. My hair is long and think so it was pricey but I would rather pay that and be happy with my service than pay and pay again to have it fixed by someone else. you get what you pay for. thanks Jennifer!

Hello all, I’m helping my wife write this review cause she is to upset to deal with it. She was a walk in client and was referred to Jennifer. Her hair was to her waist with long layered and face framing. She asked Jennifer if she liked working with long hair. Long story short her hair was cut to her bra strap, choppy layers and a razor was used for face framing a complete disaster. She expressed how short it was but was trying to be nice. The haircut was 40 $$$ and it was not even blow dried correctly, all done in 39 minutes. Disaster. After being upset a couple days later she went to salon to complain and was told she is a scam artist trying to get free services. She showed photos of her long hair to the waist and how it looks now, pictures don’t lie. Jennifer said I’m an amazing stylist and I won’t let one scam artist ruin my day. Unbelievable. Please if you have gorgeous hair stay away from this stylist she doesn’t care and will insult you for her wrong doing.

This salon is impeccably perfect! The hairdresser, Lindsey Oetter did magic to my hair!!! She is incredible and very talented and made my hair go back to its natural color, very difficult task to complete, but Lindsey made it happen… Definitely will be back again for a color and a cut!

I just moved from Texas and was in a desperate search of a new salon to call home. I went on Unilocal as well as FX You’s Facebook page and saw amazing reviews about Tonia and saw pictures of her work on Hair by Tonia Cook Facebook page.
I made an appointment & had my appointment with her and she was the sweetest, most understanding hair stylist… and she actually listened!!! Definitely have found my go to stylist for cut & color in Las Vegas. I have even convinced my very picky husband to get his hair cut by her too.
I highly recommend Tonia!

I don’t know where to start! Lisa is amazing, I came to her to get her services… She did an amazing job on my lashes and my hair. She has such a positive attitude and definitely know how to make a women feel beautiful inside and out! You absolutely must come see her for all your services, I promise you won’t be disappointed!!!

I had a hard time hitting post on this because I want it to stay a secret so they don’t get so busy that booking appointments become difficult, that;s how great of an experience I had!
I had simply the best experience! Brandi was my stylist and she was awesome! I LOVED how when helping me figure out what style to go with, she took my facial features and jawbone structure into consideration, that was a first! She gave me a style that was exactly what I was looking for, cute and low maintenance!
I will be returning over and over, I have absolutely nothing negative to say!

I was in a bind after booking an appointment at least 2 weeks in advance with another salon-​the day of my appointment, there was a note on the door that they were closed for remodeling. I had wedding to attend and needed my hair done. Frantic, I went to Rain and was extremely lucky to get Mike. He was awesome and did my hair for less than half of what it would have cost me at the first salon! Plus sides-​private rooms so it’s just you and the stylist (no phones to rush to answer, or walk in clients to deal with). I totally recommend Rain!

I am redoing this review. They keep the original five stars tho. It’s something I enjoy about a clean shop & professional people. It’s just addicting to me and I crave it more & more. No kidding this shop everything is super clean even the restrooms. No joking it’s unbelievable that their is no hair on the floor. No hair on your seat once you sit down. It’s a very productive but professional environment that I just love. The shop owner is kind and gives me just what I like. It’s safe to say she has earned me as a client. It’s been years since I have been able to allow a hairdresser to just free fall and do with my hair however she likes. But I trust the employees at this location one hundred percent. I will continue to go to this location.

Rain is very nice and clean. My manicurist is Lisa Tennison and my esthetician is Jayna Hardy. Both ladies have their own private studios at Rain. The atmosphere is tranquil and comfortable. Jayna and Lisa are great at what they do. If you need to get your nails done or have your eyebrows waxed, make an appointment with either one of these ladies and you won’t be disappointed.

I love going to this salon. I am a client of, stylist extraordinaire, Laurie Stewart VonDerau. The atmosphere is upbeat, clean, stylish and the folks are super friendly. I like the individual spaces and the undivided attention/​pampering that this creates. Of course Laurie’s space is spotless and I can say the same of the reception, bathrooms and sitting areas throughout this location. I give Rain Salon Studios 5 stars and if you are looking for a fabulous hair stylist do ask for Laurie Stewart VonDerau tell her Cristine sent you. :)

I LOVE the setup of this salon. You get your own room and privacy and each artist gets to work on you with out having to share space with others and hearing gossip. You can actually relax here and enjoy your privacy and talk about your life whatever while being taken care of. I had been a client of Kimba for nearly 15 years and she is one of the best in Aliante area. I then went to David W. whom now has his own space. It is lovely and decorated very nicely and he just makes you feel so at ease and comfortable in his place. I am a life long client of Rain. I would like to try the other technicians in the studio for Mani-​pedi or facials. I just love the location and privacy you get. I found GrandeLash from Taryn, and it has only been a week and my lashes have grown and filled in! it’s half the price of Latisse so I recommend it. lLatisse was a hassle to get from my derm, requiring me filling out so much paperwork and paying the co pay. Not worth it. Grandelash MD is the way to go!
Please check out Kimba and David if you are in the Aliante area, they are the two best in the area! They make you feel at home there and this studio is the only place I go to. I plan to spoil myself with other treatments so I’m going to have to look into the other services offered there.

The salon is absolutely beautiful and the service is unbeatable. I had the privliage of Mellisa S. as my hair stylist. She is AMAZING! Her prices are very reasonable, too! I love the intimate atmosphere instead of a traditional «station» type salon. Each professional has their own room, so it feels very exclusive! LOVE IT!!!

I recently moved here from out-​of-​state and needed someone to cut and color my hair. I stopped in and met with Cecilia. We discussed changing my hair color, as it was very dark brown, and I wasn’t happy with it. We decided to go with highlights all over to help lighten the total effect. Cecilia did a fantastic job, probably the best highlights I’ve ever had. She looked through various photos until she found one that she thought I would like and met my requirements. The haircut is fantastic. I’ve waited for over a week before posting this, just to be sure that I could keep the hairdo up. It’s fantastic, just wash and dry. What a timesaver. I would definitely recommend Cecilia. She’s extremely professional, polite, and above all else, listens to what her client wants.

Have you ever been on a looooooong trip and when you get home everything feels just right, just the way it is supposed to be? That’s the way I felt when Carmen (Dominguez) cut my hair! I have curly hair, and everyone «says» they can cut curly hair, but very few people can REALLY do it right. The very first time Carmen cut my hair she got it PERFECT! I didn’t have any of the problems I usually have when other people have chopped and hacked me up. The same has been true with every cut since! I have finally come home from a VERY long trip, and everything FEELS JUST RIGHT!!! Thank you Carmen!

I would follow Carmen Dominguez to any salon where she decides to ‘hang her shingle’. She has been cutting, coloring, and styling my hair now for about 2 years. I have never been happier with my hair and get many compliments. It looks good even when I choose not to style it.
Carmen is really sweet and her prices are very good. You will not be disappointed. SHE GIVES AN EXCELLENT CUT !!

Absolutely the worst experience ever. I personally have been to cosmotolgy school myself therefore I know the service I received from a stylist named Kimba is very unacceptable. She claims she has been doing hair for something like 17 years but maybe she just forgot the basics on coloring and needs to go back to school. I dyed my hair dark brown for the fall and wanted someone to foil beautiful blonde highlights in my hair considering I cannot do this myself. When finished I had horrbile bleed marks at my roots. I looked like a spotted leopard. There is no way I can wear my hair except for down. Putting it in a clip is not an option. Please do yourself a favor and find someone else who knows a thing or two about color.

Today Momma and I had a mani-​pedi with Julie Rau, who rents a private studio at Rain, and it was great! We had the basic mani-​pedi special for $ 45, which included the standard services, plus she did some special salts and scented oils in our pedi water that weren’t technically included in the price. She took great care of our hands and feet, and my nails look really good. She’s also done deluxe pedicures for my Grandma, and took wonderful care of her feet, which is really important since she’s diabetic and often can’t feel if the water’s too hot or her skin or cuticles get cut. She also gave us suggestions on nail colors, which products to use to combat our wicked calluses, and how to maintain our nails and cuticles, but was never pushy or condescending like I’ve had with some manicurists in the past. She was very friendly and we chatted on and off about our families, work, etc. She was very hygenic: she used fresh tools for each of us, cleaned the basins in between our turns, and used all new files for each of us, which she saved in labeled envelopes for next time we come in.
In summary, a lovely experience for a reasonable price. I’ll be back!
About Rain itself, it consists of all private studios rented out to independent nail techs, hair stylists, and aestheticians. I’ve only been to Julie, but based on the clean, relaxed feel of the salon, I’d be willing to go there for other services.
