“I worked for Rick Stache as a receptionist all through college and became a loyal client over the years. I strongly trust and believe in his abilities as a hair designer. I was excited when Rick moved to Nico Spalon. The staff is very friendly and the Spalon is very warm and inviting. I feel like family with every visit to Nico Spalon.”
Chanda Weaver, Dental Hygienist and Co-Owner
Place of Grace Early Learning Center
“I have come to Nico because I know I will always get a good cut and color. I have followed Rick for the last 20 years. I have lived in other parts of the country and have tried other stylists but have never been satisfied with my look. I appreciate having a stylist who is up to date on current hairstyles and color. I know that when I walk out, I will look chic. The service is always good.”
Caralyn Guglielmo, Morgantown, WV
“Nobody is better at color and cutting than Rick! I have followed him to each salon and Nico’s is definitely the nicest salon I’ve ever been to-everyone is friendly. Rick is the best!”

“Every time I come to Nico, Nic and Treva transform my hair and my spirit better than I thought it could be. They are professional and caring people who I look forward to seeing. I would recommend them both because they are the best stylist and colorist in the area. They are great people and they are wonderful at what they do. I love you guys!”

“So this month is June and school is now out, so you can do a lot of new hair styles. Why not try out NICO Spalon for a new cut and a few hi-lites for the summer? Then you will be a hit at the pool or a hit at any party you may go to.”
John Stache 4th grade -Mountain View Elementary
“As a working mother of four, I consider my time very valuable. I moved away from the area eight years ago and mourned the loss of my favorite stylist Rick very badly. Upon moving a little closer “home” and going through multiple stylists I decided to travel the 112 miles to see Rick again here at NICO. The best decision I’ve made in a long time and totally worth it. I’ll be back in 8 weeks!”
Amy Grosselin

“This is the first time in years that I have truly been in love with my hair. I feel like I have true style- thanks to Whitney’s guidance & support- Whitney is my “hair queen”
Kara Jaggie

“I had the Keratin Straightener put on my hair. WOW! My hair is now sliky straight with tons of movement. It not only looks like silk, but feels like it. The process is much better than the thermal straightener. This one is not only better for my hair, but it smells better. I wholeheartedly recommend this procedure!”
Tammy Phillips
Teacher
“Audra has been doing my hair since beauty school, and I haven’t went to anyone else since. I followed her here and she just keeps getting better & better. I would recommend her to anyone.”
Siara Pletcher

“I was very lucky to find Anthony shortly after moving to Morgantown. I’m very particular about how my hair is done and have always had a hard time finding a stylist who gets it “right”. Anthony keeps my hair looking great. I always leave NICO feeling like a million bucks!!”
Nikki Vidove
“I’ve been coming to Nic and Treva for years because they are the best!! They always give me a color and style that everyone raves about. Plus, they’re the most fun “hair duo” in West Virginia!”
Megan Dillow
WVU Professor
“I’m here today to get my second Keratin Therapy and appreciate the opportunity to provide feedback regaurding the quality of this product and importantly. The service I experienced.
The Keratin Therapy is absolutely and unequivably the best treatment I have ever had done to my hair. I have always had hair that easily tangles. But after my Keratin treatment I only had to run my fingers through my hair to have it look fantastic after getting out of bed in the morning. I have never been able to do that. The texture, shine, and manageability of my hair after the treatment was nothing short of amazing. I am a professional speaker and having my hair professional is essential. With the Keratin Therapy, I can count on my hair looking great no matter what-indoors outdoors no matter the weather!
Regarding the service I received at NICO- Rick is a class act. I am originally from New York City and have visited salons on Fifth Avenue, as well as throughout the country, and Rick is “a cut”(no pun intended) above them all. His manner, attitude, skill, and humor exude that of a true professional. He has the gift and uses it well. I recommend he mentor all hair stylists. There’s so much more to it than just doing a persons hair and Rick gets it. Nick- give that man a raise!”

“This was my first visit to NICO- and I am IMPRESSED. It is the most friendly, comfortable hair salon I have ever been to in over 30 years. The decor is homey & beautiful. The welcoming with a cup of coffee- the kitchen felt like visiting a friend. I love my hair (cut & color). Rick is super. It is though we have been friends forever. Thank you”
