I have always loved getting my hair cut and colored, but going to Belle Salon and having Lori (owner) as my stylist, I can truly say it is an EXPERIENCE! I have long curly hair and a tendency to want to try things that will not work with me. Lori is honest, helpful, friendly and great at what she does! Whenever I take in my crazy Pinterest ideas she talks with me and is helpful in the decision making process. I feel confident that she won't let me walk out the door looking crazy! Prior to going here, I had not tried the balayage method of hair color, but my hair (that I have been coloring for about 20 years) feels so much healthier and the coloring looks so natural. The experience is great, but the highlight of all, for me, is: 9 minute blowout. HOLY CRAP! I think i mentioned I have long curly hair. It takes me almost an hour to blow my hair out. This is a blow out like no other. I go in a frumpy mess and I come out with a head of long sleek freshly blown out wonder of straight haired goodness. A MAZ ING. Love love love. In addition to this recommendation, I have sent several friends (even a friend who is extremely particular about her sexy short hair) and have received nothing but rave reviews about their experience and satisfaction. Great salon, great experience. A Shadyside experience in White Oak. read more

Heather V. - I am truly confused about the experience that you had at the salon. I am the new owner, and I'm not sure if it was me that you spoke with when you came into the salon to obtain your color card. I'm assuming that you were one of Barb's clients because she is the only one that left color cards for me to pass on to her clients. She is also the only one that retired the day I took over due to health reasons, and not because of the transfer of ownership. Customer service is my number one priority. Therefore, myself or anyone on my staff would not have "yelled" at you. During the first few weeks of the transition, I experienced quite a few surprises, angry clients from Unique Stylz taking out their frustration from the change on me and I did everything I could (and still do) to accommodate the clients from Unique Stylz. Because "client experience" is so important to me, I found your review quite shocking and out of the ordinary. I have clients that travel from Florida to Maine to come to the salon because they are provided with exceptional hair and an amazing experience. I welcome you to revisit the salon and speak with me personally so that you can get to see what the "Belle" experience is truly all about. read more

Wanted to share my experiences at Belle Salon and Spa. The staff is both courteous and professional. Lori has incredible experience with color. She also knows which hairstyle and cut is best for you. I never have to ask her what I should do with my hair because she knows better what works for me. I was truly amazed after my last trip there for a cut and color. I have never had so many compliments on my hair. I was proud to be able to say Lori always takes great care of me even when I need her ASAP since I always wait too long to get my hair done Lori an her staff make you comfortable and at home as soon as you walk in. The salon itself is clean and always looks great The best thing is that is only 20+ minutes at most from anywhere in Pitts and is easy to find I highly recommend and strongly suggest you go to Belle just one time and you will never go to anyone else Lori thanks for making me look beautiful every time I leave your salon. I would be lost without you!!! read more

This salon was previously Unique Stylz... most if not all of the staff has quit! The new owner treated their clients like trash and was VERY rude! I was a regular client following my stylist for almost 20 years to different salons, I was an every 6 week cut and color regular. My stylist quit the day the new owner took over and when I stopped in to get my card and a price list, I was yelled at, and then treated rather rudely. I have heard similar stories from other clients! SHE WILL NEVER GET A PENNY OF MY MONEY! Oh, and after posting a review on Unique Stylz page, I have received a message from a John D calling me a scumbag in the subject line And Far Worse in the message! Interesting.... read more

I am shocked at the bad review that "Heather" recently posted on here. Lori, the owner, has done my hair for the past several years and I have always been so happy. She knows just what to do. I have also loved the atmosphere in the salon. She always makes me feel very welcome and comfortable. With my stressful life, this is the perfect place to go when I need to unwind. She is truly gifted and a very down to earth girl. It is very disheartening to hear these things because I know first hand the type of person Lori is. shame on you Heather. I for one am thankful you will not return. Her clientele will truly appreciate it. read more

Belle Salon and Spa is fabulous! I was there recently for cut, color, waxing and pedicure services. I was more than pleased with the wonderful service that I received. In toe was my 10 and 7 year old daughters, they not only treated me with respect and courtesy, they treated my girls beautifully. It means a lot when you are a single mom on a budget that there is a sanctuary of sorts that we can go to, be beautified and know that THEY get it!! I have decided to become a 6 week regular :-) read more

Worse salon around. People who took over from the amazing unique stylz are so childish and rude. I would NOT recommend going there at all. They really turned something amazing into something awful. read more
