WORST SALON EXPERIENCE! I brought my mom and sister here for manicures and pedicures before my sister's wedding. We got started late, it took a very long time (over 4 hours) and our nails turned out absolutely terrible. The stylists were very pleasant and we enjoyed their company, but even after sharing that my sister was getting married, they didn't try to ensure her nails looked nice (see pictures). My pedicure didn't include any exfoliation and the polish looks streaky on my finger and toe nails. My nails are already chipped badly. My moms nails were filed poorly and her polish was super streaky. read more

I followed Stacy here from working with her at the airport and then Le Beaute, and for good reason. I had tried to dye my hair (and beard - EEK) with some leftover box dye at Halloween and it looked atrocious. Even after letting it fade out and trying to dye back to the original color at least twice, it still looked pretty bad. Stacy fixed me right up. It looked great and never showed any roots or anything. This was probably six months ago now. She took good care of my wife, too. The shop is clean, cozy, and convenient, too. read more

I love this Salon and have been coming here for years to get my hair cut and colored, as well as styled for dances. Tifainie is a great stylist, and I have been satisfied every time! Highly recommend! read more

This is the worst pedicure I've ever had in my life. The technician does not know what is she doing and is slow. I was the only client here and my appointment started 15 minutes late. The pedicure chairs are ungodly uncomfortable. Go somewhere else. This place is a dump. read more

Took my 10 year old sister in for a cut and style and we weren't at all satisfied with the results. The stylist said she couldn't do a style because she "didn't have time" so we said ok to 4 French braids. It was sad to see she couldn't even do basic French braids and claimed she "hadn't done it in a long time." read more

I have had the best experiences at this salon! I have a ton of long, thick, curly hair and the stylists are wonderful at advising me on the the best cuts for my hair type and routine. The stylists at this salon are constantly participating in new trainings so that they are up-to-date on the latest trends and techniques. Everyone is very friendly and knowledgeable. I can't say enough good things about Ambiance! read more

Stay away from this salon. Stylist doesn't have the confidence to not be intimidated by someone who has a lot of hair. She seemed inexperienced and even admitted her years of experience was as a nail technician, not as a hair stylist. Salon shouldn't market their stylists as very good, when after talking for a half hour and providing 4 pictures she still wasn't able to have the guts to cut my hair. Then said it is almost closing time at 7:00 and knew she couldn't do what I needed her to do. Complete waste of my time. read more

Be aware if you value your hair! OMG! This is by far the worst salon I've been to in 37 years, and not to mention the most expensive. I was lured in by a $40 off coupon for a cut and FULL foil. What a disappointment from the cut, the horrible color, the price, the stylist's attitude and the owner's aggressiveness. I have long dark brown hair and simply wanted a full foil of carmel brown highlights. The stylists refused to show me any books or pictures of my vision. She then decided that I may not upkeep the highlights so she started them a couple inches out from my part so they appeared to have already grown out although they were brand new. ?? She also refused to put highlights near my face. ? I also received huge bloches of highlight rather than the thin streaks I requested. Then there is the color. OMG! Half my head was an over processed brassy orange and the bottom half didn't even seem to take the color. (the stylist knew I had an all over color a year ago). Full foil? I paid for one but got a horrible partial, blotchy, fried foil. Then there is the cut. I wanted long layers since I have long hair. This apparently was a difficult cut for the stylist. The back of my hair had 'chunks' cut out of it as if my 5 year old had cut it. The stylist also wouldn't make the layers the length I requested. The salon is so dark that you can't actually see the true color they put on. At home after putting my hair up I noticed the fried bride of frankenstein look she gave me. It was horrible and completely embarrassing and $170!!! I called the salon and they said they could try to fix it but I have to go in within a week of service. The catch is that the owner is booked so she has nothing this week and they insist I do it this week. The owner was worse than the rookie stylist. How unprofessional. She got mad at me because I couldn't keep an appoinment for her to look at my hair because I didn't have a babysitter for my newborn and they do not allow ANY children in their little salon no matter if they are supervised. This was unheard of and her reason was that they don't want crying kids around disturbing clients. She also told me there were no refunds and she defended the stylist. There is no way I would go back there to let them ruin my hair again. They are unprofessional, rude and not very skilled at all. I luckily went to a different salon and they couldn't believe what Ambiance had done to my hair. Cole's salon in Burnsville was awesome and was able to fix my hair. They were kind, professional, caring and honest. Ambiance salon? The name is appealing but nothing else. read more

By far the WORST salon experience I've had. And I've been to quite a few. I went in for coloring and showed them multiple pictures and my hair ended up green! As well as the stylist leaving dye in my hair. When I called to ask them to fix it the receptionist hung up on me 3 times! Then they wouldn't even touch it till 4 days later and they wanted to charge me to fix it claiming they undercharged me the first time, which is clearly a fault on their part, not mine. They made up multiple excuses to try to charge me on top of that, because they normally don't charge to fix hair. All in all they treat you like you don't know anything and we're very rude. I will never be going back to this salon. read more

Very nice appointed spa . Strip mall on the outside, but very nice spa experience inside. Get the Cadillac version of a pedicure. The mud masque and paraffin were great. The ladies took a lot of time on the foot and leg massage and very very nice! Highly recommend read more

I never knew this salon was here as it is kind of tucked in a corner of a strip mall, but made an appointment last minute when I needed a new place to go and I'm happy I did. I have seen Jerusha here two times now and she is so great! She is very communicative about what you want and I am happy with how my hair turns out. Everyone is so nice & the environment is very inviting! I really recommend to everyone to try this hidden gem. read more

I worked with them to book all my appointments for my wedding and they were great to work with. Accommodated to come to the hotel for a small surcharge and very easy to schedule appointments with! read more

I go here to get my haircut on a regular basis. I am always greeted by a friendly receptionist who promptly gets me checked in for my appointment. The atmosphere is very relaxing and the haircut is always great! Highly recommend this establishment! read more

Love my stylist Lisa! She always does an amazing job - I love the way my hair looks every time. She listens to what I want and does it so it looks good with my hair type. I have very long, thick hair and she gets highlights, cut and style done in a very reasonable time (usually 2 hours whereas I've had stylists elsewhere take 3-4 hours and not at a school either!). I also love the atmosphere at Ambiance...it is very elegant, professional and relaxing inside. read more

If I could give my mani and pedi experience zero stars, I would. First, other than the fact that the salon is beautiful, there is nothing "spa-like" at all about how they treat clients. I asked to have gel polish removed and replaced by gel polish, my manicurist didn't even really seem to know what gel polish was. She proceeded to shred my nails until they were paper-thin and peeling because she said they didn't have the "right equipment" to remove gel polish. The "8-day" polish barely lasted 24 hours, and was bubbling and peeling before I was out the door. My daughter also had a mani and pedi and her nails were only painted to the lunula, causing the polish to peel from the bottom, up. All this fun for a mere $225!!! You couldn't pay me to return to Ambiance. Dreadful experience all the way around. read more

I recently moved to the area and was looking for a place to get my nails done. I chose this place as it was close to my home and seemed promising. Beautiful interior, very peaceful ambiance inside. I got the gel polish manicure and I am very happy with how they turned out. Amber was very knowledgeable and helpful as it was my first time getting a gel manicure. She was meticulous with her work, making sure each nail looked perfect. I was also very impressed with the cleanliness! Pleasant conversation throughout my appointment without being overly chatty. I am definitely considering coming back to get my hair done and will definitely be getting my nails done regularly here. read more

Ambiance is excellent! My wife and I have been going to Treas, one of the owners, for over 22 years and she's great to work with too. Always creative and encouraging to try new things. The salon is great with a real vibrant atmosphere with first class service all around! read more

Ambiance has a really beautiful interior, and all the staff I spoke to were very friendly and professional. They have a nice level of service - they offer to hang up your coat (handy, in Minnesota winter) and a choice of beverages. I had my hair done by Sam, and it was probably the best haircut I've had! I wanted a big change, and Sam was really helpful; she's great at figuring out what you have in mind and suggesting elements of color/cut to suit you and really make it yours. My hair turned out a-w-e-s-o-m-e. even better than I had hoped for, and I will definitely recommend a visit without reservation. I plan to see Sam again, but I know the rest of the staff is very skilled - for ex. a relative of mine has seen Amber for a cut/color and her hair looked great. Do give Ambiance a try if you're in the area! read more
