At the Ritz Salon

Jeanette did my nails today and they look amazing! She has soooo many color options, really pretty glitter colors and can do all sorts of designs. She does both gel polish and the hard gel, and is very knowledgeable about what is best for your nails. She was so nice and easy to talk to — and prices were very reasonable, $ 30 for a gel set. I highly recommend her!

What a great place! Friendly but not over friendly, great prices and an easy to find location. Rachael cut my hair and she did great. No pushing other services like eyebrow wax or hair color and that is how I like it.

Just got my nails done with Jeanette — I hate to tell Unilocal about it because I don’t want her to fill up so much she can’t fit me in anymore! But, I have to tell you she did a great job with my gel polish manicure. Reasonably priced, and she can do fun designs and has stamps for more intricate patterns!

I’m a fan because I followed Maya here. She has been the only one to cut my hair the way I like and the way that looks good for my face shape.
The salon is clean and hip. Their isn’t a lot of waiting area only 5 chairs, but if you come early they are happy to give you something to dink while you wait.
Located behind In-​Out Burger.

Hate to write a bad review, since I haven’t even set foot in the salon’s doors yet… but customer service is a big factor.
I called today (Saturday) to see if they were open and accepted walk-​ins. The lady who answered the phone said they are typically open til 6pm, but they have independent contractor stylists, whose hours may vary. Okay, no problem. She asked me what service I wanted and what time, so she can check the schedule to see who is available at my preferred time. I asked for 2 or 4pm, and that I just wanted a haircut. She said sorry, there’s no one available at those times, and said that a lot of the girls (stylists) are not working due to the holidays. Fine, I understand that. I wanted to be flexible, so I asked her if there was anyone available at any time until closing time. She then said «No, there is no one available.» WTH? Could have just told me they had no availabilities today. Duh!
No dis to their hair services. I’m irked at their customer service.

I have found the BEST hair stylist in town. TERRI JEAN, she has a great talent. Best I’ve had in years. She’s affordable, polite, no drama kind of LADY. Love my hair. Oh and everyone else does TOO…

I found this place on Unilocal,because my boyfriend and I came down for the weekend to go to a wedding. He’s from Reno, but he didn’t have much input on where I could get a haircut. So after much Unilocaling, I found At the Ritz. Having read all the raving reviews about Terrie, I just had to try her out. I called in around 9 (when the salon opened) and Terrie squeezed me in for an afternoon appointment. She is just simply the nicest lady, and she really knows what she’s talking about. I can’t recommend her enough (and my haircut was only $ 35, which is a steal compared to what I’m used to paying in the Silicon Valley). It’s a little bit of a trek for me to come see her just for a haircut but in the future, if I can hold out til I come visit Reno, I am definitely coming back to see Terrie!
Plus Terrie is pretty new to the area, and I know she is trying to build up a bigger client base in Reno. Please give her a try, I promise you won’t be disappointed!

There are not words to describe how wonderful my favorite and very professional colorist and stylist, Terrie Olsen is at the Ritz Salon. Not only is my hair very difficult to color but it has a Grey streak that is almost impossible to color, but not for Terrie! She is a colorist magician! I love that she is a Goldwell colorist, and it works and lasts (I work in the sun every day, and my hair gets dirty in my line of work forcing me to wash my hair every day and the color does last!). She is the only colorist and stylist I will ever trust with my hair. I might add Ladies work with an all male workforce… face it your hair has to look it’s best especially the color at all times, they are brutally honest!
If you want the most awesome hair ever, go see Terrie at the Ritz. It is like getting a hair makeover! You’ll walk out feeling great with your head held high. I love showing off my hair when I leave the salon, and my husband loves it too!!!
I’m hesitant to share her number with the rest of you for fear she will be to busy to do my hair but here it is: Terrie’s cell number is 775−560−3842. Enjoy your fabulous new hair ladies. I might also add the salon is a perfect touch of class and the whole experience is very relaxing, and yes, you can also purchase fantastic jeans, purses, tops and little scarves at the boutique inside the salon, as well as the finest hair products, which Terrie will tell you what she thinks will work best for your hair! Where else can you get a great new color and style plus advise, in a relaxed environment? Who doesn’t love to shop and get pampered by the best colorist and stylist in town? Go see Terrie, at the Ritz Salon!

Great salon with really talented hairdressers and nail technicians. Been going there since Heather bought it and everyone who walks out looks fantastic. BTW, Heather is the best – wouldn’t go to anyone else. Has a real talent with color and always seems to know what you want.

Heather is fantastic and I can’t imagine going anywhere else to get my hair done in Reno. The staff is amazing and I always feel welcomed. The ambiance and décor is classy but not pretentious. I am extremely picky about my hair and who touches it so I am so fortunate to have found Heather who never disappoints.

We followed Terrie Olsen from Truckee CA to her new salon. The Ritz Salon is easy to find right off 395 and close to all the good Reno shopping. Terrie is no longer at this shop. She has moved temporarily to Vain Salon in Reno. She will be opening up her own shop soon. It worth your time to follow Terrie. Call her directly at 775−560−3842. Terrie has her own salon now Hair by Terriejean at the Phenix Salon Suites in Reno.

…I, too, followed miss Terrie. Coming from So Cal, I also agree with Emily. Her eloquent description and stylish paragraph flow is all I wish to say and more… she just did it much better!
I’ll add that the ambiance and attention made my first two visits wonderful. I myself, am a difficult client, in that I never know how to explain any said style I have in mind. Terrie is always patient and helpful, and for my 6 year old, did an amazing job, where once again, I had no idea how to explain what I preferred. The staff, were all kind, and pleasantly cheerful. Unlike the strained cheer I feel at a Newport, or Palisades salon, though just as classy.
Thank you, Terrie and At the Ritz.

I absolutely cannot believe this salon does not have any reviews on Unilocal.Then again, once I saw it — after my beloved Terrie Olsen located here– I couldn’t believe I hadn’t heard of it before. Talk about a surprise treasure.
From the outside, it looks like any old run-​of-​the-​mill-​grocery-​store-​shopping-​center hair/​nail salon. But once inside, this cozy little shop could be nestled somewhere in the quaint streets of any one of the Orange County beach cities (think Newport or Laguna). I especially love that rather than having traditional «stations» there are huge baroque mirrors set along the walls with shelves beside them. The chairs at the sinks (is there a technical term for this?) are also really comfy, which is a big plus– I usually have nothing but complaints about the chairs and sinks (Terrie knows this and always cushions my precious head accordingly!).
In addition to carrying the usual products, this salon also has a small clothing boutique, which I’ve yet to peruse but looked pretty impressive from the small lobby. I can’t wait to check it out.
I was most impressed with how friendly everyone was, not just to me, but to each other. As Terrie cut layers in and trimmed my bangs, another lady came along and swept up my pile of hair bits — not because it was her job, as it clearly was not, but just to be helpful and nice. I’ve never seen anything like that in a salon.
I highly suggest dropping by, even just to take a peek!

Love this salon! Roxy is fantastic and it is reasonably priced. Everyone at the salon is friendly and they have some of the best clothes, accessories at fantastic prices!
