I didn't even get to come to my appointment, If I hadn't texted to lady about the location she wouldn't have told me she wasn't going to be showing up. My appointment was today at 3 so I texted about an hour before and had told me she wasn't coming in today and the number I gave her didn't work but we had messaged before to set up the appointment so I wouldn't come here again. read more

Faye Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Riverside, California

After searching Yelp, I made an appointment with Faye, the owner. She immediately said she had to take 2 inches off my hair because it was uneven and had "holes" in it. At first I said no but after listening and looking I decided I would let her do what she thought was best. She quoted 60 dollars for a cut, blow dry and style and then proceeded to do a single line cut along the bottom of my hair in one fell swoop. I have only had that type of cut from beginners who don't know how to pull it up and do it section by section. She didn't trim the sides at all. When I pointed this out, she made excuses and then still did not trim the sides. My hair is long, to the middle of my back. It feels thick but is quite fine. Then she said she wanted to layer it a bit and it would be a different kind of layer and that this would make it not so heavy. I did not say I felt it was heavy or that I had a problem with it being heavy, which, I didn't, I loved that my hair was thick and do not believe it was ever heavy due to how fine my hair is. She did not explain what she was about to do and it is hard to explain in general. Basically took strips of hair,combing upward and cut pieces out of the middle of each strip, approx. 4 inches up from the bottom to "thin" each section. I was a bit shocked and had no time to stop her as she did not explain what she was going to do before just doing it. She assured me it would be great. It wasn't. I'm not entirely sure why a hairdresser who says my hair has holes in it would add more holes? I was cringing the whole time. This is not even the worst of it. When I first walked in, they had Christian music playing which was nice. While getting my hair washed I heard several of the hair dressers talking about bible studies and church, all good things but in the midst of this, I was being given a hard sale on their hair product by Faye. When she heard I had just recently bought a new shampoo and conditioner she turned to her assistant all indignant that I had already bought shampoo! Like it was not a good thing. The more she talked about the product, the more I was curious about it so I began to ask how much it was, she told me they were having a big sale on it and only had one kit left and that even on sale it was expensive, 60 dollars for the Unite Recover Starter Kit. 145.00 out the door for a hair cut, Starter Kit and 15.00 tip (major mistake plus the 60 dollar kit ended up being 69 dollars) that I found out later you can purchase online for 19 dollars less at regular price, not sale. It was obvious after all was said and done that she makes a lot of her money off convincing people to purchase this Unite product line. When her assistant was done blow drying my hair, (she almost burned me pretty badly when she got a phone call and picked up her cell, trying to balance her cell, the dryer and brush while talking on the phone. If I had not moved quickly she would have done some serious damage Her response was, oh, did I burn you? I said, almost and she didn't even respond, just went back to her phone call.) I expected Faye to begin styling it but she was done and had used her scissors to shave off the frizzy/fly away pieces along the surface of the hair so it looked smoother. I still did not realize the full depth of what had happened and made an appointment with her to get my hair trimmed and colored in 8 weeks time. The quote was 165.00 with 10.00 a tube extra if she had to use more coloring on my hair. It gets worse. The smell of the product on me was horrible. (I did really love how the product made my hair feel) I only noticed at first that it was different but as the day went on it became stronger and more obvious. I wasn't even sure it was the Unite until later but I confirmed it was after trying the kit only once. The really bad part was when my husband got home, I hadn't even mentioned it and he asks me, what is that smell?? After confirming it was my hair, his impression of it was that it smells like BUG KILLER. So not cool. So, worse still, I contacted her asking if she used any other product line and if not, could I bring my own for the coloring appointment. She finally came back with she had never done that before and it would need to be a good reason. So I explained to her what happened and I was very surprised that she was willing to give me a full refund, which she did. It was very nice and the only reason for 2 stars. I wish this had ended up as a better experience because she is really nice but the hard sale on the hair kit and the lack of service given for such a high price on a disastrous haircut means I won't be going back or giving her another chance. P.S. Is it just me or do the 3 reviews below appear to be all different people yet the hair looks exactly the same? Weird. read more

Faye Salon - Loooove it! - Hair Salons Near Me - Riverside, California

I've been a long time client of Faye's (more than 10 years) and I will never go to another salon. She uses UNITE hair care products, which I have found to keep my hair healthy and beautiful. Faye and her girls attend many continuing education classes so they are always current on new styles and ideas. I have such trust in Faye that I literally sit in the chair and let her work her magic with little to no input by me. I have absolutely loved every single new idea she has ever had. If you are looking for a Master Stylist; you've found the very best in Faye. By the way... I currently live out of state but I make the 10 hour round trip drive to Faye every other month. I love her dearly! read more

Faye Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Riverside, California

I give them no stars but I got to put 1 star to make this review... This spot is such a discriminating place!!! walked in with my mom and the lady who worked there was extremely rude. She gave us a glance and turned back to what she was doing. She must have been blind for a second or something. So I was like ok yk so me and my mom were talking as we were waiting for her and what seems like forever she finally comes to us and asks "do you guys have a question, can i help you?" Rudely. And I told her that my mom just needed her hair styled for her wedding this weekend and she says "well you guys need to come by appointment" like girl we ain't trying to do the hair style today that's why we came to make the appointment and ask questions. She was also looking at my moms hair like if she didn't even want to do it and i felt bad for my mom because she felt discriminated. So after she had asked that, I told her we just wanted to know an estimate of how much it will be so she didn't even try to make an appointment but just put my moms name and phone # down in what looks like an old notebook they had laying around there and told us they were going to give us a call back. So I already know we ain't getting that call back but I mean good cuz I wouldn't even want my mom going back there it was just sad to see how they were looking at her hair and just being so rude. read more

I absolutely love this place! Never have I ever experienced such a welcoming salon like this one. They show you so much respect and care it's amazing.

When my son was four months I was planning for his first hair cut. I wanted his first cut to be a memorable and enjoyable one. A friend recommended Faye's salon in Riverside and had nothing but great things to say about her. Fast forward nine months later and four hair cut later, Faye salon is the only place for my boy. Always an amazing hair cut and my son just loves her. He never moves when he is in the chair and always smiles when she is finish. I think he has a little crush on her. I rarely ever give reviews for places other than a restaurant. For Faye she is definitely a cut above the rest. read more

I've been going to Faye ever since she started @ Carlton's in the Tyler Mall. She is the ONLY person who can cut and style my curly hair. Her ease of cutting, varied techniques, and amazing knowledge of up to date styles, products and color have kept me coming back to her where ever she has moved to. I myself moved 1 hr away and still went to her. Thankfully I moved back and her new Salon is right down the street! I've recommended her to numerous friends who are so happy. All I can say is give her a try! read more

I came to Faye Salon because I was in dire need of a haircut. The last person that cut my hair really botched up my bangs and I was overdue. Faye did a wonderful job, not only with the haircut but also explaining what she was doing at each step. Gave me some tips on how to take care of my dry scalp issues as well. I have a pretty busy work schedule but she made sure to try and accommodate me. I got so many compliments on my hair today! Glad I found this salon and looking forward to my next ‍ read more

I was so nervous about someone touching my hair and having a bad experience that I couldn't force myself to go to a salon. One day I decided to walk into this salon and I immediately felt so comfortable! I explained to Faye (the owner) what I wanted and we set an appointment! I got there 1 week later still nervous but trusting in Faye to do a great job. I got a cut and hair color done and I looked amazing. I felt so beautiful. My hair felt so silky and FINALLY I said to myself someone I can trust. So yes I recommend this salon 100% :D read more

Faye Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Riverside, California

I recently got my hair cut here and the girl didn't blend my layers at all . At first glance when she was done it looked fine but she flipped the end under . It wasn't until I straightened my hair that I noticed how bad it looks.The back is two separate lengths and looks choppy the sides have no layers at all and overall I'm not satisfied with this cut at all. Definitely not what I wanted after cutting a majority of my hair off . Definitely won't be coming back. read more

Faye is so awesome with my hair! She usually asks me what I want to do with my hair and I give her the power to do what she wishes with my hair. I've never been disappointed!

Took my son in for a haircut, but came out very disappointed. The lady messed up his hair and she left patches of hair on his head. It was also pricey for a little boys haircut. Not returning back again! read more

Brittany is the best! She always listens really well, takes her time and makes me feel super confident about my hair. The salon is clean and really well kept. The other stylists in the salon greet people when they arrive and ensures everyone is taken care of. The owner, Faye, makes it a point to come by each chair to see how the stylists are doing. The Unite products are one of a kind. I would definitely recommend Faye Salon for cut, color and styles! read more

I cannot say enough nice things about this salon. After having my second baby I realized I desperately needed my hair cut. I called to see if they had anything available and the fit me in only a couple of hours. I had to bring my newborn with me and they were so accommodating. They even let me take a break to nurse my son. My haircut was exactly what I wanted and it looks great! I will not go anywhere else from now on. read more

Faye Salon - Faye has been my hairdresser for nearly 7 years now! You can trust her to give you a cut and color that suits you're every need! - Hair Salons Near Me - Riverside, California

Update---1 month later & still trying to deal with this horrible haircut. I decided this review was not fair to all the stylist at this salon & because of this I will say that I did not like the cut, that Addy gave me. Nice lady, but my hair looks like she cut it w/a dull kitchen scissor. It is so chopped, so uneven that I am going to give it another month to grow and then go back to my previous salon and hopefully they will be able to do something with it! read more

I came in today for deep conditioning treatment and had great service. The stylist I had was Addy, and she really went above and beyond in the customer service. I'm also a stylist, and loved the service I received. I needed a treatment in my hair because I was way too lazy to go to cosmoprof and get a conditioning treatment myself. Also, I always change my hair color so it gets famed and ports. So glad I stopped in to take advantage of a getting pampered myself. read more

I came by this salon today because a girlfriend of mine said she got her hair done here b4 and I liked how her hair turned out, so I came in to make an appointment and the salon was closed? The hours on the window said that they close at 6. I came by way b4 6. Why post up hours if the salon will be closed at whenever they choose to leave. Maybe I'll come by another time, but I doubt it. read more

I've been going to Faye since I was 19; 36 now and I love her! My hair always looks good, healthier than ever. Highly recommend her.

I was referred to Faye a few years ago by my sister-in-law. It's very difficult to change hair stylists. I have been very happy with Faye. She is on time, which is a big deal for me. Her staff is always courteous and warm. I am very happy with my hair. read more

Just try her you would not be disappointed. read more

I followed my manicurist and hairstylists to Faye's salon a year ago. I found the salon friendly, comfortable and professional. There is a good ambience to the salon. I like that the salon offers beauty and hair products plus jewelry. All the beauty professionals are friendly and helpful. My manicurist and pedicurist, "Nails" Mary, is excellent & artistic with nail designs. Suzanne and "Hair" Mary are excellent hair stylists. I have been their client for many years. Try out the salon if you are looking for a change. read more

I would strongly recommend this Salon. The salon is pleasant and accommodating as soon you step in the place. My Stylist, Veronica, is top notch. She takes the time to ask what it is you would like and provides honest feedback. I first came to Veronica when she was working at another salon. My hair was chemically damaged by a stylist of which I was once a frequent customer of at a salon in the city of Redlands. I came to Veronica as a "walk in" client. She took a look at my chemically damaged hair and said she couldn't high light my hair due to the damage. Right away, I respected her honesty and respected that I just wasn't another new client she could collect a service for just because I asked for high lights when my hair definitely couldn't handle any additional chemical treatment. I have been a loyal client of Veronica's and Veronica has never failed me. My hair is healthy again, it has taken almost a year and Veronica worked with me the entire time. Veronica is great at color, cuts and Brazilian blow outs. She takes her time with you. I followed her from the salon she previously worked at to Faye Salon, which I love. Everyone is very nice. Don't miss out on great customer service and quality hair care! read more
