On Boulevard Gambetta, in the residential sector north of Nice's city centre, Johan Autuori has built a salon to his measure in just a few years — exacting, colourist-focused, straightening-expert. His positioning is clear: he addresses a clientele that knows what it wants and accepts paying for result excellence. SASU Johan Autuori, created in 2013, today displays enviable consistency in its reviews and client loyalty spanning several years.
Johan is above all a colourist — in the most exacting sense. He masters all contemporary techniques: ombré and Californian balayage, light highlights, polar blonde colouring (his signature), patinas and pearlescent reflections. But it is on Brazilian straightening and keratin that his reputation is strongest — complex requests requiring hair material mastery that few Nice salons can offer at this level.
In-salon products are premium: Kevin Murphy, L'Oréal Professionnel, Olaplex. Full, deep hair treatments are available as an option on each service. The Ybera Botox speciality — Brazilian formaldehyde-free smoothing and hair reconstruction treatment — is still rare in Nice salons. Online booking 7 days a week and 24h is available, offering appreciated flexibility.
Contemporary, pared back and professional. Johan Autuori's salon has a 'magnificent' setting according to reviews, with lighting and organisation designed for a demanding clientele. Open Monday to Saturday 9am–6:30pm.
Women's cut from €40. Ombré balayage from €80. Brazilian straightening from €120. Ybera Botox from €100. Full colouring from €55.
Highlights: Johan Autuori is consistently cited as the Nice specialist for polar blonde and Brazilian straightening — results are described as exceptional, particularly for difficult-to-work hair. 24/7 online booking is very well appreciated. Quality of Kevin Murphy products used is regularly mentioned. Welcome and team professionalism receive excellent reviews.
Areas for improvement: Prices sit at the higher end of the Nice market. Boulevard Gambetta location is slightly off-centre for car-free visitors. Slots fill up quickly.
Overall: Johan Autuori is the reference address for premium colour and straightening in Nice — a talented colourist who fully justifies his positioning through consistent result quality.
