Love this salon!!! When my regular stylist moved out of state I tried a couple of other salons in the area and then found Bonita! Veronica does a fantastic blowout in under 40 minutes. I had my first keratin treatment here and was a bit nervous as I have had a few that were not so great and lasting but it's been almost 4 weeks and still shiny, healthy and easy to style. I see Veronica every week for a blow out and couldn't be happier! Her prices can't be beat!

Clean and very pleasant place, with very good service. Veronica is very professional and very nice. I really liked how well she cut my hair. She does a great job and it can be seen that she has many years of experience. I will come to this place again with pleasure

I am so happy that Veronica and Bonita hair salon has come to the neighborhood! It's truly a little neighborhood gem. I used to go to Le's Nails, but she totally revamped and renovated the space! I walked in for a mani/pedi and not expecting much... but it was one of the best mani/pedis I've ever had. Veronica is so skilled in reflexology that you just melt in the chair. Also, the polish and shaping are meticulous. I'm excited to try her other services!

Ive followed Veronica for years going to salon after salon. She finally opened her own place, which is better managed with nicer people working there. Veronica always talks with her clients prior to any services, taking into consideration their preferences and face shape, to get the right hair cut and color. Using all natural products, my hair ALWAYS is in better shape after her artistry.
