    Absolutely the best hair dresser I've been to. I had been to carlton 2 days before and they messed my hair up so bad. Definitely did not get what I asked for! I am loving the color cut and style! She is my go to hair dresser from now on! I love her

    Akilah did my daughter's first braids and she LOVES them! They looked so good on our vacation and made her hair so easy. And she was SO excited to show them off to all her friends on the First Day of School! #vacaybraids #1stdayslay

    I called on Wednesday October 15 to schedule a haircut appointment with Jacqueline for Monday…read moreOctober 20 at 9 AM. This was my first time booking with her and I decided to go with her because of all the amazing Yelp reviews, her beautiful work on Instagram, and how friendly and knowledgeable she sounded when we spoke on the phone. I have curly hair which can be difficult to find the right stylist for, so I was really looking forward to this appointment especially since my previous stylist recently moved out of the country and my hair was in desperate need of a trim. On the morning of my appointment I texted Jacqueline to let her know I was on my way. There was no response which I did not think much of. When I arrived and texted again to say I was finding the suite, she finally replied that she had to cancel due to personal problems. While I completely understand that life happens, I was already thirty minutes away from home and it was disappointing to find out only after I had arrived. A quick message beforehand would have saved me the drive and gas. I responded kindly, wished her well, and said I would be happy to reschedule but never heard back. I even followed up again the next day, October 21, and still received no reply. I truly wanted to love my experience and was excited to become a new client, but the lack of communication and professionalism left me really disappointed. I hope this was just an isolated situation, but unfortunately it did not leave a good first impression.

In the last 19 years I've done it all . Blow dry, hairs cuts, extensions (different methods) any color and highlights you can think of and yes even a perm!! I'm an extremely picky person and as much as I drive her crazy she always gets me and the vision in my head comes to life. Jacqui is passionate about her craft which is what makes her unique. I'm always looking forward to our appointments as that is my lil me time and she makes it a great experience. Her salon is gorgeous and relaxing. If you are looking for combination of quality and sanctuary look no further, Jacqui is definitely your girl.

For the money I thought it would be nice to come with a product you can take home. Also, it did feel a little rushed and I only learned how to do my eyeshadow. I did have fun and enjoyed learning. I ended up buying a few things and learning some new tips.

In addition to that on the app and website it says that today is a Mac product event launch and that they were doing Mac makeovers I signed up. legit registered have a confirmation for 10:30. I walk in at 10:30 and they have no idea what I'm talking about and try to get me to go to their Salon. I show them my reservation and they say they don't take walk-ins. I don't have a walk-in I have an appointment. so the girl says they can do it but I need to buy three full-size products first. I told her I do intend to buy product but potentially not three full size products and I want to see the new item on my skin first. She rolled her eyes and told me she guesses I could buy it after. I told her I would just go to a different Ulta and she said okay go ahead she did not even care. There's no one in the store it's not like they're busy and I had an appointment. I don't know if they are just discriminatory against older people or chubby people but it was awful and I will never be returning to the store again. I spend thousands at Ulta every year but I guess that's not good enough for them.

    It was my first time coming here. Someone had recommended me to come here to do my hair, since my…read moreoriginal hair stylist wasn't available on the day I needed my appointment. Luckily, I went here! I made an appointment with Kimberly to get a layered cut. Kimberly was an amazing person, and really explained what was best for me (my hair/style). I gave her a reference photo and she gave me recommendations on what would look better, and of course I took her advice because she knew what she was doing. She even gave me tips on how to take care of my hair, and how to style it. She is fun to talk to and a great hairstylist overall. The vibe in the whole salon felt very lively and friendly. I would definitely come back and get my hair done here. They also have different services, from nails, to facials, etc. I would love to try those out in the future as well. My service was wash, cut, and style for $75. I know nowadays everything is getting expensive, but this was the most worth it experience. Kimberly did an amazing job on giving me what I wanted! I feel truly confident in my hair and looks now because of her! I got many compliments and told everyone to go to this salon. Even though I was with Kimberly for my appointment, I can tell everyone who works there are very friendly. So, please check out this place!

    I've been going to the hairdresser Susie for many years and throughout the years I've been patient…read morewith her because she is consistently late and she stops doing hair to have full conversation and she's very unprofessional I have a very important job that I do and I don't have time to wait around for her, my time is very important to me and I have places I need to be and that's why I make appointments at specific times! The last time I was there she was an hour late and she took her 10 o'clock appointment first instead of working on my hair and my appointment was at 9 o'clock and she didn't even apologize or anything like that, she just made excuses and while she was doing the other lady's hair she stopped to talk to her multiple times not doing her hair while she was talking to her it was very unprofessional and it was blatantly disrespectful to my time and myself! I myself would not recommend going to Susie from this salon unless you have all day to waste! Not to mention she talks a lot of crap about other hairdressers making a line in blonde hair from where the new root job is done and she always makes a line so all around I just wouldn't recommend! My boyfriend has gone to her for years as well and he will soon not be going there either!

    I very rarely leave reviews, but my experience at Granada Hair and Makeup was so disappointing that…read moreI feel I need to share it. Before my appointment, I messaged the salon owner and explained that I'm very nervous about getting haircuts because I've had a bad experience in the past. She reassured me that I would be in good hands with Cassandra. I also personally explained my concerns to Cassandra when I arrived. Unfortunately, the haircut I received was the worst haircut I've ever had. When I left, my hair was noticeably uneven all around. I was extremely upset because I had specifically communicated how anxious I was about my hair and trusted the salon to take care of me. During the appointment, Cassandra also suggested using a hot tool to place curls at the bottom of my hair so they would hold. I did not ask for this additional service, yet I was charged over $120 for the haircut and blow-dry. After I contacted the salon owner to explain that my haircut was completely uneven, I was offered the option of returning that same day so Cassandra could fix it. After having an experience like this, I was not comfortable going back to the same stylist or salon to have the haircut corrected. I declined and asked about receiving a refund. What disappointed me even more was how the situation was handled afterward. I was only offered a refund for the haircut and not the blow-dry service. As a stay-at-home mom with two little ones, I don't have an income of my own and rarely get the opportunity to take time away for myself. Spending over $120 on a haircut and blow-dry was already a significant expense for me. I then had to arrange childcare, spend additional money, and find another hairstylist to correct the haircut. This wasn't simply a haircut I didn't personally like. My hair was left visibly uneven, and I had to spend even more time and money having another professional fix it. I'm extremely disappointed not only with the haircut itself, but with how the salon owner handled my concerns afterward. I expected empathy and accountability, especially after I had made my anxiety about haircuts clear before my appointment. Unfortunately, based on my experience, I would not recommend Granada Hair and Makeup to anyone looking for a haircut.

    If you are under the age of 30, I would not recommend this salon…read more I really wanted to be the bigger person and let this go, but after my appointment with Edwardo on July 9th, I experienced severe and persistent pain and burning involving my scalp. During my appointment, my hair was bleached, and afterward my scalp began hurting significantly. By the following day, the pain had become so severe that I was crying and screaming. I have never experienced anything like this after having my hair done before. Unfortunately, I did not have medical insurance at the time, so I was unable to seek medical treatment. However, people who saw my scalp afterward expressed concern about how it looked, and the pain and burning continued. Approximately a month later, I went to Ulta to have my hair looked at. Employees there pointed out areas of damage to my hair and explained what they were seeing. My hair is now damaged, and what concerns me even more is that approximately a month after my July 9th appointment, my scalp is still in significant pain and continues to burn. I'm not writing this review to ruin anyone's career. I genuinely wanted to let the situation go, but I'm still dealing with the consequences of this appointment a month later. I'm sharing my experience because I don't want someone else to go through what I have experienced.
