I've been going to Anabel for many years now and she also does my daughter's, mom's and mother in law's hair. She can cut and color for all ages and transforms hair to its full potential! Throughout this pandemic, I haven't had my hair done and I was finally able to show my hair some love! My hair is naturally curly and frizzy, but I love the way she blow dries my hair because it lasts so long. I can never get my hair this silky smooth at home no matter what I do. She's the best!! read more

BUYER BEWARE OF GROUPON SCAM. I purchased a Groupon for a cut, style, partial highlight and blow dry for $49. Annabel told me over the phone it would be extra for longer hair. When I went in, she said it would be $15 extra for the extra length. Then I confirmed by repeating it that it would be $15. So $49 for the Groupon plus $15. She then charged me $50 for the extra length at the end! She is charging the same value of the Groupon just to cut extra extra. Update 07/19/18 Anabel (I'm assuming the owner) called me and said I was wrong! She actually took the time to harass me and insist that she was right! I'm shocked! DO NOT GO HERE! read more

I was going to buy the groupon but Annabelle honored the price for me. She took me in last minute, and was very nice and easy to talk to. Being a Paul Mitchell grad, I can say she is really good at hair. I got highlights and an amazing cut. The only thing is I do think the regular pricing is too high. For the location, environment, the salon needs some repairs and some cleaning to be done. So once the environment is professional I would give 5 stars:-) read more

There is not enough stars for this absolutely amazing hair salon. Annabelle is so sweet she did so AMAZING on my full highlights. She is soo so sweet. I have found my official hair stylist no one for me but Annabelle She gave me wine while she did my hair. Most wonderful conversations. You will not be upset when you come here. read more

I purchased a Groupon for a partial highlight, haircut and styling. Upon calling to schedule the appointment I spoke with Annabel who informed me that Groupon customers with partial highlight orders only receive five foils. I explained that I was a bit confused and that five foils seemed to be only a touchup or a "face-framing" and not a partial, she said that she would just charge me more and that "it is what it is." No where in the Groupon details did it mention only receiving 5 foils. Needless to say I canceled my appointment and got a refund on my Groupon I never even went into the hair salon. I think it would have helped if the Groupon clearly stated that it was only a 5 foil touch-up-/face frame and not a partial. read more

Annabel is awesome. She gets straight to the point and if you show her what your looking for she doesn't disappoint. I've been here twice. Once for color and cut and the other for just cut. I highly recommend read more

It's taken me awhile to get to a point where I could write this review, so pardon the delay. I bought a Groupon for highlights and a haircut at Exotic Hair Bar. When I got there, I explained that I loved my hair as it was but needed a touch up on the highlights and maybe an inch or so off the length. Again, I stressed that I really liked my hair already and just needed slight modifications. My highlights, which had been really beautiful and natural-looking, were turned into zebra stripes! Awful. Then I had to actually ask for my haircut, even though it was included in the Groupon. Honestly, I should have kept my mouth shut and just left, but the good reviews left me with some goodwill. However, I received a completely different haircut than I started with - not a quick trim like I had requested. My hair ended up being cut quickly into one length and barely dried before I was shown the door. I have super thick hair so basically had to sport a triangle-looking cut before I could get it fixed. She also told someone who called that they could come in for a haircut while I was there. I sat with my head in the sink for 20 minutes (yes, I timed it, it was so uncomfortable) while the other person was being attended to, and another 10 or so after my hair was washed while those two chatted. I've been to many hair salons in the past (and have been received services from salon owners to trainees), and this was my worst-ever experience. read more

Exotic Hair Bar - The color is so amazing! - Hair Salons Near Me - Farmers Branch, Texas

First of all the place was not as I expected but I guess you get what you pay for right? I bought a groupon like many other people. The place is so bad it's old does not have a welcoming atmosphere at all everything is old and falling apart it's not "exotic" at all. I had very long hair down to my lower back and I asked her to cut it by my bra line but like others said she does what she wants. She cut it above my shoulders! I wanted to cry. And on top of it she kept insulting me to justify the haircut said long hair does not go with my short height. Oh and she charged me an extra $10 there for the length of my hair even though she left me no hair. Terrible place!! Pay full price else not worth it. read more

I really enjoyed my visit with Anabel. She did an excellent job on my hair. She gave me what I asked for and also helped me with what color would look good. Had trouble finding the right spot and I think I found the perfect place for me. Thanks Anabel read more

Lets start from the beginning. I live in New Orleans and am visiting my sister in Irving Texas. I needed my hair done so badly. So I decided to go on groupon just to see what was out there. And I searched and searched. No one would answer the phone or there rates had changed even tho the groupon said another price. But anyways I finally decided on this shop. It had the best reviews. Ok so I called and she was pleased to take me at 11 am. So I got in my car and GPS it and I found it no problem. Not far at all and I walked right on in and she started right away and we talked and talked about what I wanted Done I had lonnnnnng hair down to my butt and she didn't even have a problem. No complaints no nothing!!!!! So she cut nine inches off and went straight into color mode she highlighted it and after about three hours of pain I'm sure lol she finally finished. She styled my hair so beautifully. I have never in my whole life been so happy with the out come of my hair its so beautiful in every way. I put a picture of the finished product on here. So happy. She is an amazing lady. Ms Annabel I can't thank yu enough for giving me everything i could ever ask for. I WILL be back!!!!!!!!! read more

I got a groupon to this place. The inside does not match the website. It is a rundown shop with old torn seats. Not what I expected. I gave it a try since I had already purchased the groupon. It was the worse mistake of my life. I told the owner my graduation is coming up and explain what I wanted for my hair. She didn't even take the time time cut my hair with scissors, she used a razor to thin out my whole head. Now I look like a cancer patient whose hair is falling out. Its my worse nightmare! I would have gladly paid a full price service at a nice reputable salon if I knew what would happen to me. Save yourself the despair and go elsewhere! read more

I just purchased a Groupon for this salon. For the price, I'm pretty happy. This isn't your uptown hair salon, it's located in "little Mexico" in Farmer's Branch. You can definitely tell the ladies here take pride in what they do. It is located in a strip mall off of Valley View and they are remodeling but it was fine for me. I made the appointment that day at 10AM for a hair cut on my lunch. For the price I paid I walked away happy! I would come back again. read more

When I try to book an appointment with this establishment and use my Groupon, the lady that answered was extremely rude. I tried to make the appointment for 2 weeks out and she told me she didn't have anything and tried to make it for a few days from now and I didn't need my hair done at that time. So we made it for 3 weeks later and she kept asking me if that was okay and I said I suppose so I don't have any other choice. She then told me that I was being rude and hung up on me so now I cannot redeem my Groupon with this establishment. I would not recommend this establishment to anyone because she is extremely rude and doesn't deserve anyone's business. I would not make any further appointments or do any business with such a rude person. read more

My husband and I both went to get our hair done. Annabelle and Leti did a wonderful job. I was nervous because I wanted a change and this was my first time to this salon. I had a coupon from groupon. Annabelle did a great job on my hair. Leti gave my husband the best cut he has had in years. I was a great experience and we will be going back. read more

Yes, I loved how my hair turned out and she listened to my ideas. I would give five stars if her pricing wasn't so ridiculous!!!! I purchased a groupon that was $29. I usually look for good deals because my hair is very long, but I still expected to get charged extra (I read the fine print). I go in expecting to pay $5-$15 extra for the length. I sit down get my hair washed by a woman who kinda knew what she was doing but also kind of didn't. Although, I could tell she was new, she was very nice and good at holding conversation. The stylist was bouncing back and forth between me and another lady which was extremely annoying. I didn't really complain about it since she squeezed me in that day and stayed past closing to finish my hair. When we finished I showed her the Groupon and asked how much extra is was going to be and she said... $30!!!!!!!!! Like are you kidding me??? Thirty dollars because I had long hair?? I felt like I was being punished for having long hair! I ended paying $59 which is a dollar short of the original price (I also tipped her). There was no point in buying the Groupon. read more

Okay, so this is my experience. I went months without having my highlights touched up, as you can see in my "before" photo. My roots were long and pretty dark. Thoughts of an ombre were running through my mind. Just a few more months and I would just about have one! Anyway, decided to go ahead and lighten back up for the summer. I checked out reviews for this salon on yelp and they are really good. I also like the highlights some of her clients posted photos of here on yelp. So, I thought I'd give her a try. I'm relatively new to Dallas, moving here 6 months ago. I hadn't found a stylist yet that I was satisfied with. I wasn't expecting Anabele to do as good of a job as she actually did on my hair. The problem is when my roots get that long, they take in a lot of color and quick! So, I usually end up with bright, blochy/spotty highlights on my roots in contrast to the rest of my hair. I hardly ever leave without the stylist dumping about 1/4 of a bottle of toner on my hair. This was not the case this time! She listened to me try to explain what I wanted about 5 times lol. Make my new growth look good, full highlights, but also put color inbetween the highlights to try and fix this ugly dull color my old highlights have turned the rest of my hair to. And make it look NATURAL!! She explained that I am actually asking for lowlights, which she charged an extra $75 for. She showed me the color swatches and picked one that she thought would look really good. She held it up to my hair and yep, looked real nice. A few hours later, I walked out of there all fixed up, looking very natural. NO TONER applied! No spots/bloching at all. It looks so natural. Even underneath my hair looks natural. Amazing! I have found my stylist. P.S. My "after" photo really does no justice. It looks so much better than that in person. read more

Excellent, awesome, must try, worth it. She is pretty expensive for where her salon is located, how it is but she knows her stuff. The only feedback I have for her is to get some real help. She juggles taking phone calls, setting appointments, attending to clients, talking to solicitors. All this adds up to the total time you end up spending at her salon. I was there for 3 hours getting highlights. A lot of that was due to her doing other stuff that somebody else could have done. read more

Anna is a good stylist and I walked out with a haircut that I really liked. This is a no frills place and a good value with the Groupon.

Absolutely thrilled with my hair, Did an amazing job on my highlights and cut, I have really long hair and most places never put enough highlights even when paying extra. They put in so many and there were so many levels of color, I love it. Now about the staff and service. The ladies were so sweet and very talented. read more

First I requested an appointment, before they actually opened, the owner got back to me within minutes, assuring me that she could squeeze me in by the time I wanted. That was awesome. Then, when I got there, I was welcomed as soon as I walked through the door. Then, we sat down and I showed her what I wanted, she made a few suggestions, I agreed, and I've got to say. I got exactly what I wanted. Perfect job!!!!! And I don't trust anyone with my hair. I'm very picky and I will continue to go back. She customizes each person's consultation differently so you have a unique one of a kind experience. The prices are a little more than I expected, but she worked with what I had, and that to me, is worth it!!!!! Knowing I'm going to get EXACTLY what I paid for, paying just a little bit more, is so worth that peace of mind anyday!!!! Beauty isn't cheap, and neither is time. I will continue to be a regular customer until she stops doing hair!!!! Love the conversation as well. Very sweet lady. Thanks again for a job well done!!!! read more

Annabelle did an amazing job on my hair! She took 5 inches of damaged hair off and gave me a relaxed layered style that is flexible for day, night, or downtime. Then she updated my color a beautiful blended ombré. I get lots of compliments from friends and strangers. Couldn't be happier with the outcome. read more

Anabel was great! I've lived in Dallas 2 years and have yet to find a good hairdresser. I found a Groupon for Exotic Hair Bar on a Monday, called and got an appointment for full highlights for 1:00, same day. I have super thick hair and have never been highlighted in less than about 4 hours. Anabel did full highlights, wash and dry in 1.5 hours! It looks amazing and I'll definitely be back! Thank you Anabel! read more

Very rude and terrible customer service. I purchased a Groupon and Annabel told my wife it would be a lot of for extra length .I wasted a whole day off coming there and she said she will not my hair unless I pay a lot of money extra!. She is scam artist. Be aware. Very unprofessional and rude. read more

Not happy with the cut I received from Anna. I came in with a medium length, straight across a-line Bob and said I wanted it shorter with layers in the back so my ponytail curled under instead of flipped out. That was my goal: cute ponytail. I said think "stay at home mom" (meaning I don't do anything but wash and air dry) and showed her pictures of what I was thinking. She said she was going to texture it with a razor to give it volume and those layers so it was a thinner ponytail. She literally took half my hair off in a layer around my ears (doesn't fit in a ponytail anymore) and left me with the tiniest rat tail that comes together in the back. She said, "in about an inch growth your ponytail will be great." UHH, I asked for that NOW. Then somehow she managed to cut the longest piece by my face in my supposed to be a-line and asked me if it was like that before because she didn't remember cutting it. Again, UHH. Nope, remember you said it was so bland because it was all one length. Not happy and my choices are hide it with clips or go pixie and that defeats the purpose of a ponytail. She was sweet and seemed to think she knew what I wanted but apparently didn't hear a single word I said. I hate it and my choices are slim until it grows out. :-( read more

The experience was not that's great. She cut way to much hair i asked for half and inch and got two inches cut off. i will not be going back

This place was very disappointing. The lady didn't listen to what I wanted on my hair, she just did what SHE wanted. Cut it WAY too short. Will definitely not be back. The hair cut was $45 and that was ridiculous! She didn't use scissors, but a razor instead. read more

Annabelle was an amazing stylist with a great and upbeat personality! I used a groupon and was very impressed with the end results as she paid great attention to detail into what I wanted as well as was very funny and great at making one feel comfortable and welcome.

I both purchased and redeemed a Groupon for this hair salon on 04/02/2013. I called right after purchase and was able to get an appointment for any time I wanted that same day. Being a newbie to Texas and living in Carrollton I was intimidated by the change in scenery as I left Carrollton and entered Farmers Branch. To be honest I parked and sat in my car and called my boyfriend asking him if I should go in because I was a bit afraid of the outside appearance of the plaza the salon is located in. After a few minutes I decided what the heck? I already paid for it. When I went inside my experience was phenomenal. The girl who cut my hair was very kind and actually LISTENED to how exactly want my hair cut and DELIEVERED! A rare occasion for me! I got a wash, cut, and hairstyle at no rush and I left beaming at how beautiful I both looked and felt. I was a bit disappointed when they handed me a business card before I left it and that it had a coupon for $20 for the same service I received and paid $29 on Groupon for first time customers. If you haven't purchased the Groupon yet just head over and pay less! I will definitely be visiting again. They say never judge a book by its cover and that quote holds true to Exotic Hair Bar. read more
