Italia is an incredibly talented and artistic hairstylist! She gave me beautiful highlights and low lights, covered my grays, and finished with a trim and the cutest style. She truly has a gift for hair and pays attention to every detail. What I especially loved was how much fun she was to be around. She has such a lively, happy personality. I've had hairstylists in the past who were quiet, cranky, or simply not very personable, so Italia's energy was such a refreshing change! If you're looking for someone who is talented, creative, personable, and genuinely loves what she does, go check out Italia! You won't be disappointed!‍ Oh and definitely try the tea there it is delicious! read more

I've been going to this salon for over a year, but after this, I'm done and honestly, I shouldn't have come back in the first place. My first chunky highlight appointment with color was great but expensive at $380, but at least the result justified it. Six months later, I came back for a retouch of the same style and was charged $650. The only explanation? An extra $210 for "additional color." That is completely unreasonable. There was no clear estimate given beforehand, so I was blindsided at checkout. Charging that much for "color bowls" is ridiculous. To their credit, after I raised concerns, they did issue a refund and agreed to honor the original pricing for both that visit and future services of the same kind. Even so, that kind of price jump completely broke my trust. For context, I maintain my color at home for about $10 every six weeks. I understand salon services cost more, but this pricing is excessive and feels dishonest. Despite everything, I still gave them another chance. I asked for a simpler service, just bleaching a few chunks, adding color, and a haircut. My appointment was at 5:00, and I arrived at 5:18, slightly past their 15-minute policy. Instead of making any effort to accommodate me, they immediately refused service. What makes this worse is that my stylist had me booked later in the day specifically for the color portion, so I know I was scheduled well beyond that time. I wasn't asking for the full service anymore. I was asking for less: even just a partial service. That wasn't accommodated at all. They didn't even offer alternatives. I had to ask if a basic haircut was possible, and only then was I told I could either do just the cut or reschedule. At that point, I was so frustrated that neither option felt worth it. There was zero effort to work with me, just a flat refusal from the receptionist. Completely inflexible and unprofessional. Typically receptionists should at LEAST try to negotiate a solution. On top of that, their vivid colors are terrible, they bleed everywhere. Overpriced, poor communication, and awful customer service. They've lost my trust and my business for good. read more

I have been coming to this salon for a few years, the service is decent. Recently it has become ridiculously difficult to schedule an appointment. I had an appointment on Valentine's day that was cancelled due to my stylist calling out. I understand that things happen, but there was no attempt to work my appointment in, nor was there any restitution offered for my ruined Valentine's day. The next time I came in the owner avoided me, and the stylist appologized for the cancelled appointment. I called this past Wed and needed to move my Saturday appointment to Monday at 10a. I am a busy person and a paying customer. The earliest they could do was 1p. They didn't even seem to care when I said I needed a more flexible salon, they offered to leave a note for the owner. I'll take my business to a salon that respects my time and loyalty. read more

What a great experience! My hairstylist, Emma Grubbs, did a fantastic job. My hair looks amazing and beautiful. I walked out with a big smile on my face. Being new in town, it took me a while to find a hairstylist that I could truly trust. I am so happy that I found Ellie K Salon. Thank you Emma for the amazing job. read more

This was my first time adding blonde again in a while, and I'm so glad I booked with Connor, she was amazing! My balayage turned out even better than my inspiration photos. I couldn't be happier with the results and would definitely recommend booking with her! read more

I was seen recently and told my stylist, Shelby, took personal leave the day before my appointment. I had to choose to see someone else because I was leaving for a trip a couple days later. Not only did he get my color wrong and then argue with me about it AFTER I'd shown him a picture and when he had my regular stylists formula, the literally pulled and yanked my scalp sore. I could hear and feel hair breaking as he washed and dried me, he insisted on doing it twice to get the color to lighten up, which of course it didn't. Even had he gotten my color right, I would not go back because of his disregard for my comfort--and I am not tender-headed. Thankfully, I did find my stylist, Shelby, at Aura: The Art of Hair in old town, Frisco. I won't be going back to Ellie K read more

Went in for a haircut after driving by. Connor cut my hair. The cut was terrible. One of the worst cuts I've had. I recommend another salon or at least another stylist. read more

I have always gone to Aveda salons, so when I moved here, I looked for one here. This was really the only one I could find. It is a nice place, but: the sink/chair setup for hair washing could be better and more comfortable, they always double-book their stylists (so I end up either waiting too long while my hair processes, or am poorly washed by a novice), and the stylists are kind of hit or miss. I have had a different one every time I have come in. They bring a senior stylist in from their sister salon, and she is always tightly booked, some of the lower level stylists are just mediocre, and having to wait 20 minutes occasionally before your appointment is an annoyance. I have gone to Aveda salons in the several states and cities in which I've lived, and this one is about medium quality in comparison. They appear to have too many clients and too few qualified stylists. Their prices are on the high side, and I wish there was another Aveda alternative in this area. read more

I have been seeing Kelly R at Ellie K for many many years. I let no one other than Kelly touch my hair! She is professional and always knows what I need after many years of caring for my hair. She even keeps me from making tragic mistakes when I get a wild idea! A long-term relationship with a great stylist makes all the difference. Ellie K is NOT inexpensive, but we are talking about your hair!! It was pretty bumpy during Covid, but Ellie K survived. Their new booking system makes it easy for me to schedule my own appointments on line. The staff is always quick to greet me and offer me a coffee or wine when I arrive. I drive miles from Carrollton to see Kelly... worth every minute! read more

Christina did my hair. Nice lady but the worst blow out I've ever gotten in my life. I literally went home, and washed my hair because I prefer my natural curls rather than the fro she left on me. The hair was 5" away from my scalp, she said she couldn't do anything else because she had another appt so i started flat ironing my own hair trying to fix it. she clearly doesn't know how to straighten curly hair. I wish salons would honest about doing minority hair instead of humiliating us like this and making us spend unnecessary time and money. Ugh read more

Victoria is really good at what she does!! This is an Aveda salon and considering its Aveda, the price for my partial balayage, and haircut was very reasonable. The place is located in a cute strip mall. So if you have teenagers or friends waiting they can hang there. Its a very spacious and cute place. Im happy and think I've found my new salon!!! read more

I came to Ellie K with Brencess. Let me just say, she is the kindest hairstylist I have ever been with. Along with that, she made my hair dreams come true! She does such an amazing job! My hair has never felt and looked so healthy. Will definitely be returning with her! read more

Had a pretty good experience here. Frankie trimmed, thinned and framed my face perfectly. My curly hair is thick and she cut it with precision. Precision cuts is what Ellie K salon specializes in, although I like the cut I don't like having to have my hair separated to have it cut layer by layer to make it the same length. My preference is to have hair stylists free hand it, I'm not knocking the way they cut hair, they cut hair amazingly, it's just a matter of preference. My experience here was good, I just don't like the the neck capes that they use to drape over the body. It soaks up the water. I like that they use vegan products, because it's vegan it doesn't have any harsh chemicals. read more

I have waited for 2 weeks to write this review because I have never written a review on any business before. While the staff was very kind and the establishment was very clean, I have never had a worse haircut. I am 4 months out from my wedding and was looking for a simple trim. I had about 3 inches taken off of my hair and an absolute hack job done on my long layers. I am genuinely sad and upset about this as I have been growing my hair out for my wedding for a couple of years now. I have gone to another salon to see if there is anything they can do about the layer catastrophe and the only solution is to remove more length. I thought I was okay to trust this establishment that had good reviews but I was wrong. read more

Ellie K is by far my favorite Salon of all time. From the time you walk in and are checked the environment is so welcoming, bright, and friendly. With every service you receive relaxing mini massage with the Aveda oils while you wait for your stylist. Unlike traditional salons where you sit and read a magazine (which you can still do) while you wait, you have a opportunity to test out new make up products, lotions, and shop! I'm the type of person that needs to try before you buy so this is perfect for me. What I love most is that since it is an Aveda salon, all the styling products they use on you, you can buy right there, so you can take the salon home with you! I recently had the privilege of working with the General Manager Jamaica and Master Stylist Lauren. I want to say they are truly a blessing and have a passion for their work and for their clients. They have gone above and beyond for me when it comes to scheduling, last minute rescheduling, and just flat out taking care of me. As everyone knows with COVID going on and salons reopening, it has been hectic for owners and stylist themselves. So I wanted to take the time to personally thank them and show how much I appreciate their time they took for my situation. You will not regret giving this salon a shot, all of the girls are wonderful. read more

Kailey did my hair a couple of days ago and she messed up my hair. I asked to just do my roots, now my hair has brassy colors and you can still see my roots. She left the toner into long and my hair came out grey. She had to ask Jade for help cause she didn't know how to fix my hair. I walked into the salon with an ash blonde and left with orange and yellow hair. read more

My haircut appointment was at 9am with Jennifer. I'm still sitting in the waiting area at 9:30am. What is the point of making appointments when you have to wait another 30 plus minutes. When I asked the manger, the stylist is getting herself ready. For what? She did not have any other customers since the store opened at 9! Please respect people's time. Will never return. Very disappointed. read more

Kelly is amazing! I refused to give up my bleach blonde but I wanted my dark roots not to look so harsh and maybe blend a little better with the lightness. She knew exactly what to do to make everything look more natural and blend perfectly. She works fast and knows her stuff! She's my go-to girl from now on. read more

Spoke with rameen over the phone about hair color and she was very well informed about services. I had a box dye color and I wanted to go back to blonde. She recommended some stylists as well as informing me about the price and how long it would take as well. I will be coming in for a consultation read more

I usually come here for my daughters haircut which is usually $35, however when I was checking out they said it's now 48!!! And that they haven't changed it on their website. If I had known I would have taken her elsewhere ! Very disappointed the least they could have done is honored the old rate this one time. read more

I had waited too long in between highlights the last few times, so I felt like there was too much contrast between the top (dark blonde) of my hair and the bottom (previously regularly highlighted portion). I wanted a partial highlight to brighten up the top and Julie did not disappoint. She suggested a toner as well and it came out beautifully. I would recommend this salon as it's trendy and relaxing--just expect typical Aveda pricing. Overall a good experience! read more

I loved my previous hairstylist, but she no longer cuts hair. She did recommend me, however, to Julie at Ellie K! This is one gorgeous salon. From the moment you walk in, it's a really airy and well lit environment. Julie was so pleasant to talk to and did an excellent job on the long bob cut I was looking for. I also love how easy it was to book an appointment! read more

You get a complete experience from the moment you open the door. The aroma pulls you in and puts you in a relaxed mood. The staff and stylists are so friendly and adorable. The salon decor is gorgeous!! My stylist, Tasha, was very attentive and helped tailor my vision for my hair. She straightened my naturally curly hair (I have serious shrinkage) and it came out gorgeous, it feels silky and smells so good!! read more

I have curly hair and it's hard to find someone that knows what they're doing. Jade knocked it out of the park. The cut is great and her styling suggestions were perfect for me. So happy to finally find her! read more

I appreciate Shayla and her talented expertise. She listened carefully to my needs and executed a modern cut. Shayla was excellent to work with, I trust her entirely. Normally, I am skeptical about cuts and color - I have trust issues. Thanks Shayla - see you next time! read more

Professional, clean, loved the vibe and the decor! Frankie, the stylist, is very talented with blonding and providing a relaxing visit. Also I loved the variety of time slots available for my busy schedule read more

I loved my stylist but the fact that someone got confused and cancelled my appointment after I waited for 6 weeks to get it done before my trip. It's extremely upsetting and I am sad to say bye, but after spending hundreds and hundreds of dollars every appointment, they clearly do not appreciate my business and I am done. read more

I had a scheduled appointment yesterday, I showed up on time and checked in. The receptionist called into the back letting my stylist know I was there, after 10 minutes I went back to the desk asking what was taking so long, I was told my stylist was there, after a few more minutes, the receptionist goes into the back and comes back out not saying anything to me, I walk back up to her and ask what is the issue, and I am finally told that she must be running a little late. Lying to customers, when asked specific questions is not a way to run a business. I had other things I needed to do and having employees not show up on time for scheduled appointments is unacceptable. I will be taking my business elsewhere going forward. read more

Their products are on the natural side in which I like. Julie was my hairdresser and I waited for her as she was running late. This was my first visit there. The music is to loud in my opinion. This salon is geared towards, lights, camera, action. Julie looked at my hair cut and condition and did a trim only of my hair and I brought the product she recommended to condition the hair. Her personality is A+ The down side is I did not call before going in as I am new to the area and got a bit of sticker shock at check out. I will only pay so much for hair services. This shop is not one I will be returning to due to cost. read more

Don't waste your money!!! The first time I was there I saw a woman in tears bc of the horrible haircut she received. My mom and I got our hair done. Hers took over 3 hours for a partial hi-light and trim. We then scheduled appointments together for our next visit. I received 10+ calls, texts, emails to confirm my appointment. We showed up and they didn't have my moms appointment scheduled. The girl at the desk couldn't be bothered with the issue and went back to the phones. Another girl came up and wanted to check us in. When I told her what was going on she didn't seem concerned and asked if my mom wanted something to drink while I got my hair done. She offered no solution and was surprised when I said I wasn't going to get my hair done and make my mom sit there. We walked out. You just lost 2 customers. Clearly you don't care. read more

Love the salon but should it really cost $200-$300 for a cut & color?! $$$ I go in every 5 weeks! I'll go broke!

Jade is amazing! She has been my stylist for years and is truly the best. I started with her at Von Anthony and followed her to Ellie K. Both salons are beautiful and have fantastic service. Highly recommend! read more

Mary Paige did an excellent job on my hair! She took the time to listen to what I wanted and the end product was amazing!

I am so happy with my experience at Ellie K salon last weekend! Everyone is friendly! The atmosphere is great and I absolutely loved Kailey. I came in nervous because of a bad experience I had a few months ago at a different salon, but I left Ellie K smiling and confident! Kailey made my hair dreams come true. She listened and my hair turned out exactly how I wanted! Tasha (I hope I got her name right?) did the blow dry and she was also the sweetest person. I cannot recommend Kailey, Tasha, and Ellie K enough! Thank you! ‍ read more

The atmosphere is very nice. However I am rating it an overall 2 for the price and quality of service. I have had very bad experiences with hairdressers who don't listen on your cut and color. I thought a level 5 stylist would be great considering the ratings this salon got. However, after 2 weeks, my gray is already starting to come back. I can get more weeks out of a box of root touch up. My haircut was not worth the money I spent. My ends feel like i fried them with the flat iron from the "texturing" that was done to thin my hair. I had a picture of the highlight color (which i did get) i wanted, yet they were done so thin, i was told when i come back in 6 weeks i could add more. Unfortunately, i will not be going back to this salon. read more

I have been with Ellie K for years and always loved my service. I was recently charged for a service I do not believe I received. I called twice to have someone review the service charge with my stylist but they could not confirm anything over the phone and would call me back. I called a 3rd time and the receptionist flippantly said "yep you had it I see it listed in your file." read more
