Hair emergency solved!…read more I was so fortunate to find Ciao Bella salon! Had a bit of a hair emergency that needed fixing and Colette was more than accommodating. I had attempted to color my own hair and it really didn't look great. I needed a professional! She was able to work her color magic on my hair and the color was so much better than I had hoped. Not a trace of my mistake - I am so happy and can't recommend this salon enough!

Why I haven't written a review yet for one of my happy places is beyond me! I've been coming to…read morestudio 703 in Chesterfield every since my girl J.C. moved there around ten years ago. Front desk staff is always attentive and ready to help you with whatever they can. Almost every single person I've ever recommended to J.C. (which is a lot at this point lol) has decided to stay with her and for good reason. She's the best at what she does; so much so that I've paid for the bride's hair and makeup in any wedding I'm in so we can use her/703 because I don't let anyone else touch my face or hair. I've uploaded a variety of photos to show her versatility and ability to bring your vision to life! Also, if calling to schedule makes you anxious like it does me, they have an app for that! You're easily able to plug in the services your wanting along with the staff member to see not only availability but also pricing, talk about transparency! So if you're looking for a new salon to call home, they'll leave the light on for ya!

I had months of Induced come, Intensive care & recovery that kept me distracted from personal care. She was nice & made me look almost human. She cut my hair & trimmed eyebrows plus beard for $17.

Well, the stylists are great. But no one is ever ever on time. Waiting is not a problem but the…read moreowner never ever acknowledges I'm waiting. Frankly it's incredibly rude. A simple courtesy acknowledgement that I am there waiting or a text that he's behind would be client friendly but he has never ever done that. I've waited up to one hour frequently with no apology. It's unreal. Maybe that's why he sold the business- either the games made him enough money to retire or the games hit his business hard enough he had to. FYI-the new owners price list is 1/2 of Salon Prive's!

The guy used too much mousse, it wasn't what I wanted, and it was over $100!!! I've been growing my hair out but by bit for the last three years and thought nervously that it was time for a chop. I had pictures ready and everything, but when I saw her, I just gave her an idea. Medium length, highlights my eyes and waves, with volume and minimal styling. GUYS. It was only $60 and considering the look of the place I thought it was gonna be so much higher. She washed my hair, cut it with absolute precision for a whole hour, made wonderful conversation, stayed past closing time to style and blow dry it, and she DESERVED that tip I gave her. Wow. Go here and ASK FOR JEWELS!!!

I found my new hair magician! Ok, so long story short, haircuts scare me. I never feel like I'm explaining myself well enough for the person to really know what I'm looking for and I'm super clueless about what's even going to look good given my super round face (ugh). Deana was amazing...she's super down to earth, fantastic to talk to (I was there for 3 hours and it felt like we had been friends for years) and seriously knows what she's doing when it comes to cuts AND color. Daaang! And I hear she's pretty good at the waxing too, so a triple threat!!! I'm always a little nervous to see what everything looks like at the end (because I typically have my glasses off the entire time) but this time, I was pretty at ease. I trusted her and it was easy to because she discussed everything and clearly knew what she was doing every step of the way. So glad to have found her! Hope she likes clingy ladies because I'm not going anywhere else now!

She took a look at my hair and checked out how I had been taking care of it and gave me some tips on how to untangle the existing strands.

Grace is the best!

I paid $780 for extensions + $700 installation and left with the wrong curl pattern entirely. My…read morehair is 4A, the extensions were 3B (a noticeable mismatch) that the stylist and salon owner insisted "blended well." Rather than fix it in the salon, she told me to wet and scrunch them at home. They did not improve. When I had dinner with my grandpa the next day and he saw how awful my extensions looked said my hair looked like a "mop." Everyone who saw my hair was appalled at how awful they looked. After sending photos, neither the stylist nor the owner could acknowledge the obvious problem. The owner admitted the curl pattern wasn't an exact match but offered only a perm + reinstall, no refund. I was never shown the extensions before they were ordered, and Michelle the stylist told me that she had the "perfect extensions" to match my curl pattern. On top of the wrong curl pattern, the extensions were installed too heavily for my fine hair, leaving my scalp red, irritated, and scratched by sharp adhesive edges of the k tips . Given the damage, I declined further work and still received no refund for either the hair or the installation. No one at Kink Hair salon took accountability. If you have 4A curls or tighter, please save yourself some money and go to a curly extension specialist. I ended up buying 4A clip in curly extensions myself and they look like a perfect match, proving there's no excuse for licensed cosmetologists to not be able to find the proper curl patterned hair for my extensions.

She took her time to listen and understand exactly what I wanted, choosing a single brown shade that matched my natural color well. I opted for the extra conditioning treatment she offered to bring some hydration back to my hair and could see a positive difference right away. I showed Dani a photo of a hairstyle I wanted, and after the color and cut were complete, she efficiently worked her magic with the blow dryer and curling iron. She got my hair looking the best it has in a long while! You can't beat the pricing, naturally. The teaching staff stopped by periodically to check Dani's work and offer input.

If you have curly hair, Kyra is That Girl!…read more I have been wanting a curly shag forever and my past stylists have either been too afraid to do it or thought it would look mullet-y, so I thought I'd try a curly hair expert. Multiple reddit threads and FB groups later, I saw enough recs for Kyra that I was ready to give her a shot. The salon itself is so cute and eclectic--the coolest thrifted decor! And I was greeted with an offer for a drink and gladly took a hot coffee on a freezing day, which was a great way to get started. Then I met Kyra who was SUCH a good listener and she continued to educate me on what she thought would work for me, told me we could always get more funky at a future appointment so I wasn't too shocked, and walked me through all the steps of styling so I could recreate her magic at home. When I tell you that she gave me the cut of my dreams, I mean it! 70s vibes with defined curls and a routine that won't take me three hours. I genuinely can't wait to go back. GO TO KYRA!

I'm really disappointed with my experience with Jason. I had been intentionally growing my hair out…read morefor a flow hairstyle and had built up quite a bit of length and volume, particularly in the back. I specifically told him that I liked the volume and length and wanted to keep it in some areas- mainly just refinements and adding more layers. Unfortunately, he essentially did the opposite and significantly tapered the back essentially undoing months of growing out. What's most frustrating is that this wasn't simply a misunderstanding about the style I wanted--I specifically pointed out the part of my hair I liked and wanted preserved, and that was the area where the most hair was removed. I had spent months growing it to that point, and now it will take several more months just to get back to where I was before the appointment. I understand that not every haircut turns out exactly as expected, but listening to the client--especially when they clearly identify what they do and do not want cut--is fundamental. I left feeling like my instructions weren't heard, and unfortunately this isn't something that can simply be corrected with another haircut. In my case, what a stylist charges and their "level" aren't indicators of their ability to listen or their skill. In the future, I'll ask what the stylist is planning to do before they proceed.
