Diva Professionals

I’ve gotten my hair cut by Elio for over 15 years now, and my mother has been with him for 25+ years, she never goes to anyone else. He genuinely cares about every single client he has, and he treats them like family.

Very friendly and clean.
Nice range of services.
Customer service focus.
Nice hair cuts but Sue & Crystal the nail technicians are the best! They do a great job and are very accommodating and a lot of fun. I always look forward to seeing them.

Myself, my mother and sister have been coming to Elio for YEARS!!! He’s SUCH sweetheart and the most talented hairstylist. He shows genuine interest not just in the cut or color but in the health of the hair and your long term goals (whatever they may be). LOVE them!

At Divas Professionals, «professional» is the word to go by. Laurene absolutely knows what she is doing. She has a lot of experience and my hairstyling is the proof. The salon looks bright and clean, and smells nice (not like the typical salon). I’m always offered a water bottle while I wait for my turn. Patty at the front door is friendly.

This place is awesome! Got a wash, cut and blow-​dry before my bridal shower and I couldn’t have been more pleased. The stylist took her time and made sure my hair looked perfect. Everyone was accommodating and friendly!

I got a quote for hair color for $ 50. I checked out and the receptionist told me $ 85! I was told that to blow my hair dry was $ 35 additional. No wonder it is like a ghost town in there. Not going back!

My friend and I recently went for mani/​pedis at Diva Professionals for the first time and enjoyed ourselves. We would definitely return.
The interior is what I would call upscale casual — it has the nice polished look and feel of a day spa without being so ultra modern as to seem too formal and intimidating. We were immediately offered refreshments when we entered (you don’t realize how much you’d like ice water until you’re soaking your feet in hot water) and then ushered right in to pick out our colors and hop in a pedicure chair, no waiting necessary, everything was on time but didn’t feel rushed.
The nail techs that worked with us (Sue and Tina) were likewise very professional but friendly and sociable, providing nice conversation when you wanted, but without the need to keep the conversation going if you just wanted to relax. So we traded off between talking to each other, talking to them, and just relaxing quietly. We were treated to the works with a nice hot soak, exfoliation, hot towels, cuticle creams and oils, and massage (though I wish it was longer). Sue paid some much-​needed attention to my cuticles, which I appreciated. Their finished work looked good and together took about an hour and a half, finishing around the same time. You could tell that they really wanted to make sure we were satisfied with their work before we left.
The nail section of the spa included 3 pedicure chairs and 3 hand stations in one area and the hair, waxing and massage section were up in another area of the building, but I didn’t really see much of that. There was a strong chemical smell from the hair salon area as we walked in but when we went into the nail salon area we couldn’t smell it anymore and when we left the smell had dissipated so maybe it was an uncommon occurrence.
The building itself is fairly spacious and tucked away on the corner between Pond St. and Lawrence Rd. right off the intersection of Rt. 28 with its own parking lot. The entrance to the building takes a minute to find as there are no signs but it is located around back, off of the parking lot. I’d never noticed the building before, the only reason I found it is because I saw good reviews for it online. I was told that the spa has only been there about a year and I think because of this, in addition to it being just off of 28, we had a couple of appointments to choose from on a Saturday (I’m not complaining).
The color choices that they offered were nice, and played it relatively safe — I really liked the color I picked out (OPI I’ve «Red» the Script) but it took longer for my friend to find something as she tends to go for bolder colors and there weren’t as many to pick from. She also wanted to have the Ombré nail design done which Tina had never done before but she tried it out on her with the gel polish and it turned out pretty well and in the end she liked it (I forgot to take a picture but Tina said they would put it up on their Facebook soon). I think they are used to more traditional nail designs. My friend just has to be difficult. lol
Considering the nice building, products used, and the extent, quality and care of the work, I would say the price is fair and certainly less than many other places in the area that offer similar features. Credit card/​cash tip.

Great salon for hair, but you need to book a bit in advance. They did my wedding and it was excellent. They stayed open later on a Saturday had the whole salon working on just me and my party.

I have always used the Unilocal app for my iPhone for searches or local food, but was so impressed by the service here I had to sign up so I could give them a review. After my last stylist left the salon I used to go to, I decided to try this new place. Elio was amazing, he addressed all my concerns (dying my hair while pregnant) and after talking to him about his experience as a stylist I knew he would give me exactly what I wanted. I can honestly say that I LOVE my new cut!!! The conversation never lagged between us and it was such a natural flow the entire time, not something that I had to feel like I had to talk to him. I am extremely happy I took a chance on this place and will continue to use it for all my hair services.

I went in to this new location with terribly bad hair cut and color as I thought I could do this on my own. I had all kinds of different colors and lengths. I do have to apologize as I do not remember the name of the gentleman that cut my hair at Diva’s but not only did he make me feel like a million bucks but he took the time to correct the errors that I had made and created a beauty queen. I will definitely be going back over and over again. What an awesome place
