Since moving to Lakeland, I hadn't found a good, go-to hair place. And this was after years, I looked up places to try out and thankfully found Esquire! I've gone to Denise a couple times now and she is just the absolute best. Honestly, I need to get my hair cut more than I do, and even though it had been forever since the last time I went in, she still remembered me immediately. She's also so good about confirming how much hair you want cut. I feel like a lot of places you'll say how much you want trimmed or cut and then end up with much shorter hair than you wanted. But Denise is very careful to double check how much you want off and make sure it's what you want after she works on it, and continually ask. During Christmas season she'll even hand out cute little gifts. It's a whole experience going here and I love it! They also are pretty reasonably priced especially because some salons can be so spendy. Definitely recommend! read more

Go somewhere else for an updo! I recently scheduled an updo at Esquire Salon & Spa with Giselle Oliveras for a very special event, and I was left highly disappointed by the service. After arriving early for my appointment, I was made to wait for over an hour. The staff behind the desk, even other stylists walked by as we sat waiting, unconcerned. I was then informed it would be another 45 minutes before I could be seen, 30 minutes after my appointment time. Unfortunately, I had to leave without any services being provided and a 10% discount for a future visit, which was incredibly heartbreaking. This experience not only left me to tears, it ruined my plans for the event but also showed a complete lack of consideration for my time. I expected better from a salon when it comes to scheduling and customer care. I cannot recommend Esquire Salon & Spa and especially Giselle Oliveras based on my experience. read more

Staci gave me the best haircut I've had in years! She listened to what I was looking for and what I didn't like about my current style. She was very detailed and super friendly. I also like that everyone has their own private studio area read more

Donna is the best! Extremely professional and does a phenomenal job. Never runs behind. I get waxed and eyebrows tinted. I will never go anywhere else. read more

I am new to the Lakeland area and was looking for a new hair stylist. I hit the jackpot with Heather P. She was so friendly and willing to listen to my hair concerns! She was not only knowledgeable but, she has awesome skills! You won't be sorry if you put your hair in Heathers capable hands! I will be back! read more

Esquire is amazing!! The staff are very friendly and the salon is always clean. I get my hair highlighted by Staci and she does an incredible job. Highly recommend!!! read more

I was very disappointed. I googled the salon on yelp and found it highly rated. So I went to the store and asked root touch up. The hair dye they used was smelly and left mark on my hairline. Worst of all, just within a couple days, the new color on my hair had been washed out. Too bad, extremely not recommended! read more

Esquire Salon Suites - Hair Salons Near Me - Lakeland, Florida

So, today, I felt that it was time for a haircut. I googled barber shops in Lakeland, and Esquire Salon and Spa came up. I called to see if they had any availability for today and their pricing. They fit me in right away with Nashan. The moment I walked into the door, I was greeted by Barbara, who offered me soda, water, or coffee while I wait for Nashan. Nashan called me up and sat me down and we had a conversation of what I was looking for in a haircut. I even brought in a picture. I consider myself to be very particular with my hair because Asian men's hair are difficult to cut, but Nashan did awesome! She was very efficient and great to talk to. She's been doing hair for 20 years, which is hard to believe since she looks so young, but her experience really shows! She says she "loves hair, it is like art." Someone with a passion like that, you have to have her style your hair! A Men's haircut starts at $21. Worth it in my opinion! read more

Angel does my lashes and she is THE BEST in Lakeland! I have been seeing her every 3 weeks for over a year. Her technique and education is top Notch! The staff is very friendly and always greets me as soon as I walk in. The whole place is very relaxing and quiet-perfect the rejuvenate! read more

I came to get facials with my sister, just basic facials nothing fancy. However the lady doing my facial told me she wasn't an esthetician. I felt so bad for her she should have never been scheduled a service she wasn't trained in. She put the towel straight from the warmer on my face. It was way too hot. The steamer was also way too close to my face & only covered one side. Super hot. She had no knowledge of the product line or what she was putting on my face. At one point she said oh this one has superfruit in it. She out right said serval times she was so sorry she didn't know what she was doing. When asked what product line it was she said bare minerals. I expected a pro line like Dermalogica or Bioelements maybe. She tripped & unplugged Echo & kept leaving the room. The sheets were so stained she tried to wipe them off in the begging. $50 for nothing, I would never recommend this place to anyone. However she told me this area of FL no one gets facials, its not a big thing here at all. read more

I always get nervous trying a new place for the first time. I made my appointment online for Alicia. She was so friendly and kind. I got my haircut shampoo, cut and blow dried and my eyebrows wax all from her. She made sure I was just what I came in for which was a trim and blending layers. This place was so nice and clean. The prices are affordable for the quality job they do. read more

I am from Illinois, but needed my hair colored and cut for vacation. My appointment with Erica was great! She was fun and personable, and my hair looks great! It was exactly what I wanted and the price was just right! Thanks, Erica, for a great day of pampering! read more

I was new to town and tried one of the franchises and my hair was butchered. I than decided to find a salon close to my home and just randomly picked who was available at the moment and it was Alexis. I explained to her what I wanted and I must say she had excellent listening skills she repeated to me what she thought I said she was right on she's been my hairdresser ever since I highly recommend her. read more

I was fortunate to have a friend recommend Esquire Salon during the COVID19 restrictions SO once we were allowed to visit hair salons I made an appointment with Josh! First appointment - color! And then a second appointment for a body wave. Both are beautiful and I believe all the salon operators do a great job, because during my visits EVERYONE LOOKED BEAUTIFUL - HANDSOME (for the gentleman I saw in there today)! Josh takes time to explain the processes and does a beautiful job! He will be my regular stylist from now on! Thanks Josh!!!!! read more

Love this salon and all the girls who work there! The owner and her husband have been doing hair for 30+ years so you always know you're in good hands. read more

I have been getting my haircut here since I was 2 years old. I'm now 27. Always professional. Always accommodating. Always consistent. Highly recommended. read more

I've been going to Sarah for a few years. She's able to work wonders with my thick, curly hair. Sarah is professional, efficient and does a wonderful job. I highly recommend her! The salon staff are top notch! They always offer a drink while you wait and are great for making short conversation. I have also had manicures, pedicures and waxing performed at Esquire. I have absolutely no complaints about the business or staff. read more

I have never had such unprofessional treatment by a business in my life. I made an appointment with Nashan Berrios for a cut and color. The Saturday of my appointment, I waited for almost an hour before she came out and told me that she had made a mistake and forgot to put my appointment on the books. Not only that but the salon didn't even stock the red that my hair is colored. She had to order my color and asked me to come in the following Saturday. Stupidly, I did. Nashan wasn't even at the salon this time. Rather than someone actually telling me this information, they let me sit like a fool in the waiting area for half an hour before telling me that I should text her. I left without my hair done once again and a couple hours carved out of my Saturday. Nashan finally texted me "To call her when I got a chance..." at 6pm on Saturday night, but when I did she didn't answer. Here it is Sunday afternoon and I still haven't spoken to her, nor has she even attempted to apologize to me. I have never been so embarrassed or disrespected. I prepaid for her services via a Groupon that she was offering online so I suppose that since I wasn't paying full price for what she was offering, my time and money meant nothing to her or the other staff members of the salon. Groupon is only offering me credit for my purchase rather than the cash back so I am out $65 for the cost of the cut and color. Sure, I can spend that money on something else, but after this experience I can't say that I will ever use the service again. If you value your time, I would strongly advise against making an appointment with Nashan. As for the salon itself, I really think that they could have handled the situation in a more professional manner. I understand that they "don't keep her appointment book for her" but they should have made an attempt to make it right. read more

Im proud(and a little surprised) to be reviewing the best salon/spa in lakeland, my hometown. Ive seen this business go through major transformations as ive been coming here since I was little with my mom. The owners(diane and her husband) are wonderful and professional. They used to have a way smaller location in north lakeland, but the newer location on south fl ave is HUGE and they now offer a full range of spa services here. The inside is beautiful, and the staff is super talented. Highly recommend brittany for styling. Ive had hair cuts, waxing, facials, pedicures and more here and all have been superior. Look no further for all your salon needs if you live or are visting in lakeland. read more

Too expensive and didn't even cover all my roots !!! I don't mind paying for what I get but I have extremely short hair and I was way overcharged !! If its your fault the hair needs a toner than it shouldn't cost the client 30 extra that's just my opinion . The stylist was very sweet I know she works for the owners and has to charge their prices . read more

This was my first time here. I loved how I could book online!!! HOWEVER, the prices online DO NOT match the prices they charge. by A LOT!! for that reason 1 star. They should be more honest with their pricing read more

I have been going to Esquire for about a year. It is a Great salon. Josh is my stylist and he does the best job. Prices are very reasonable also. If you are looking for a salon you will not be disappointed with Esquire. read more

My daughter and I went in for cuts and color. Alexis was our person and she should probably get a job at McDonald's. My haircut was butchered, I look like a man with a lopsided head. My 15 year old daughter's beautiful super long hair was completely fried. She has been in tears for weeks. NOTHING we do can lighten the damage except to cut it all off. We were not aware of how much damage she did until the next day. She set no timers, and never once checked to see if things were going ok. Stay away from here or at least the person named Alexis. I paid $140 for this disaster, and the girl says to me as I'm paying: "do you want to leave a tip for Alexis"? Yes, find a different job. read more

Went on a whim and decided to try out a new salon to get my hair bleached and toned to a cool platinum blonde. Came in with high hopes. Although very disappointed because of the attitude of my stylist and lack of caring. She left me in the sink with toner on my head for the full 30 minutes (ouch!) while she did someone else's hair. Not that the toner even helped because I was left with incredibly brassy orange hair. I asked about doing another bleach or possibly toning again but she did not acknowledge it or care to please me. Said that was as light as I could possibly get. Even though I made an appointment. My hair needed a trim desperately by the end and they "did not have time" apparently. So do yourself a favor and don't go to this fake "luxury" salon. They charged me $150 for literal trash. I ended up having to go somewhere else where they gave me a beautiful cool blonde color for half the price. read more

I absolutely love this place! Joshua cut my hair and he did such a good job. My layers and framing came out perfect, and a lot better than I had imagined! He most definitely takes the time to make sure your hair is left looking fabulous. My hair looks and feels so healthy! highly recommend him! read more

This was my first time at Esquire Salon. In the past, I've never felt I found that one place/person I felt comfortable to go get my hair cut. Every time I would try somewhere new. From when I walked into Esquire Salon everyone was so friendly and nice. Emily cut my hair and she was so sweet and listen to exactly what I wanted and I left feeling much better! And I feel now I have 'a place' where I can return to get hair cut. I will be back! Thank you Emily! read more

So I went here a little over a month ago and I'm happy I did. I had great service and my hair came out amazingly! I gave them a picture and everything and it was what I wanted! Great place to get a haircut. read more

I came in to esquire on Saturday to get my botched haircut fixed and it was AMAZING! After a full consult, Alex took me back to wash my hair and I wasn't expecting such a great head massage, the sinks were more comfortable than any other salon, it was like laying in a recliner. After my haircut Alex dried my hair with a round brush and it was softer and smoother than it has ever been. I love this salon and definitely will be back. read more

Had my hair Alexis. I can't believe someone can be allowed to treat people's hair this way. Avoid this place like herpes.

Another great haircut from Lindsay. She amazes me each time I come in and it's regularly. She changes it just a bit, which I love. Hairstylists are so creative. I love letting them do what they want. She's the best!! For my curly hair I'll keep going back. read more

I've been going to Tiffany Brown for several months for blonde highlights and low lights as well. She's awesome and I'm always treated professionally. Cut, color and style... I recommend Tiffany!! read more

So glad I found Diane to take care of my hair. Just moved here and she put me at ease. I was nervous starting with a new stylist.

This salon is an absolute God send. I cannot express my gratitude to Allie Roetzel! I came into the salon with green hair and basically was desperate in my search for a salon that could help me with my awful hair situation. Allie took me in, made me feel comfortable. she gave me her professional opinion and made my hair look AMAZING. I love this salon read more
