Winner in 2017's Best of Tacoma

By Margaret Bicker on August 10, 2017

Hair is often the first thing people notice, therefore, hair styles should be as individual and unique as the people who wear them. Finding a hair salon isn't difficult -- there seems to be one on every corner. But finding a hair salon where every stylist sees each customer as an individual with a unique personality, and where they strive to help that personality shine, well, that's another matter altogether.

This year's Weekly Volcano's Best of Tacoma includes such a salon. Supernova Hair Salon is a place where every highly-trained, professional stylist prides themselves on creating styles as unique as the individual who wears them. Located on Tacoma's Division Ave., Supernova has been doing their part to keep South Sound residents well-groomed and on-trend for more than 12 years.

"Established in the heart of Tacoma's Stadium District way back in 2005, we are Tacoma's original rock ‘n' roll hair salon," said Jana Lencioni, Supernova's owner and head stylist. "We are a fun, cutting-edge salon with a comfortable vibe. A place where all are welcome. Where all of your individual hair care needs can be fulfilled, specializing in the most modern and innovative cuts and colors. With over thirty years experience combined, each of our stylists is artistic, creative and unique, giving our shop its vibrant flavor and personality."

Lencioni, who has been creating uniquely personal hair styles for more than 20 years, goes on to say, "Our goal is to help the good people of the fast growing city of Tacoma and its surrounding areas achieve their own individual style through fantastic hair. This is why we started; this is what we strive for; this is what we love to do."

Specializing in "modern, edgy styles" and eye-catching hair colors in both natural and rainbow hues, Supernova has earned its reputation as "Tacoma's Rock and Roll Hair Salon." Add to that reasonable prices starting at just $25 for a basic, a' la carte cut, and it's easy to see why Supernova has been voted this year's Best Hair Salon by the readers of the Weekly Volcano.
