Heather works magic!! I have never loved my hair this much!…read more I went in over a month ago for a free hair consultation and she gave me so much helpful information, we discussed various hair treatment options (I have incredibly frizzy hair and desperately wanted to do a keratin treatment). I bought some hair products and we set an appointment for my hair to be treated and cut. This past weekend was my appointment and wow!! What a difference! I love my new locks and am finally wearing my hair down. The keratin treatment worked wonders and Heather was great company. Overall a great place to go for haircuts and treatments. I will certainly be back :) thanks Heather!!

On top of that, my hair has never been this healthy! Everything she does between the color and cut has made my hair so much more healthy.

But it's now under new management and the new owner is a butcher, a liar, and the place is filthy. She absolutely destroyed my hair. I walked in for a simple cut and she sat me in the chair and started chopping it off while it was dry. I asked her three times to stop and she wouldn't, telling me that she was just doing what I asked. There were actually holes in the back of my head and the sides were completely uneven and she "thinned it" which made it stick to my head. My daughter went back with me and tried to get my money back, but she said she didn't know how to operate the machine and I'd have to deal with my credit card company. There was no place for her to wash my hair because the sinks were filled with materials like old perm boxes, and I saw a mouse. Seriously, do not go you will regret it

Pretty good experience - a little on the fence…read more I was presented a gift card to the Sugar House Day Spa and Salon. It had been some time since I received a massage, so I was looking forward to this visit! There is a parking garage conveniently located next to the spa, so that was great. The staff at the entrance promptly greeted me and asked if it was my first time. The process of checking in and getting around was simplified by them taking the time to walk me where I needed to go rather than just telling me, which was appreciated. I was walked to the area where I changed into a robe and was subsequently accompanied to the massage area. Unfortunately for me, there were a lot of stairs, something that my knee and foot surgeries did not appreciate. It was a little awkward to sit in a small, public waiting area wearing a robe but it's a minor sacrifice. I had a massage with Audrey, who was very nice and professional. I appreciated that she took the time to ask me about my concern areas and my goals for the massage. The massage itself was good, though I unfairly compare massages to my former therapist who was exceptional. Audrey was very communicative and, even for someone who finds it difficult to relax, it was a good experience. Overall, The Sugar House Day Spa is worth a visit - it's also worth purchasing a gift card for someone. They will appreciate it! (NOTE: you can use the funds from the gift card to supplement a tip)

She loved it. Monique was her manicurist for many years. I've done countless pickups for both her and my daughters at this place and she spent lots of money here. My money, lol. Services are definitely unique to the individual providing them so I would definitely judge accordingly. She always got the mani/pedi combo from Monique - until she left. Good business, but consistency is variable.

Her mother used to come to work with some awesome hairstyles that I thought were her hair. it took her about 3 hours to complete. The tracks are glued to two stocking caps. The 2nd cap is so that the glue does not stick to your hair but she can also put a plastic cap underneath which will do the same thing. I used the old texture of the Bohyme Brazilian wave hair ( i ordered if off of ebay) which she straightened. I used black and brown hair and she alternated the tracks. She charged me $140. the only thing that I did not like was the back. I wanted it bobbed not tapered but I wasn't paying attention!

She does haircare, skincare, massages, and other health and beauty services. What is nice about Susanne is that she gives you personalized attention. You are not marched through an assembly line. She takes time and gets to know your individual needs. She also has a good eye for detail. She has a lot of experience with hair color and she works with both women and men. She does not over-schedule clients so when you go to her, you are her focus. She also has really cute dogs that she sometimes brings to the salon. Her work space is always light, airy and clean. I have gotten my hair done there, facials, massage, waxing and more over the years. Always very good! She has a lot of happy clients who are very loyal to her. You can tell her what you need and she will work with you.

The salon itself is fantastic with an environmentally conscious decor, and wonderful peaceful music with no voice interruption. Everything has clearly been thought out for your comfort, and your well-being. Bravo Susanne!

After spending a year getting to know one of the stylists by way of letting her cut my hair and…read moreapply demi-permanent color, I felt confident in her abilities and professionalism. A few days ago, I had an experience that obviously damaged my hair and she rushed me out with a promise to "trim it up" in a few days. When I contacted her to make an arrangement to go back and have her look at the damage and (somehow) fix it, she told me I was being disrespectful and that the damage was a result of my hair's texture. She then stated that our hair relationship should end and I was refunded $200. I paid $280 for the cut and color, by the way. I've lived in this area since 2008 and I'm always supportive of small businesses. It's sad that this type of situation occurred and that I'm now in a position to make others aware of such a negative experience. I left a review via Google Reviews and it was removed one day later. Hopefully, this one will stick around.

For my recent appointment (a root touch-up and hair cut) I arrived 18 minutes late due to a personal emergency and called ahead to inform the salon. When I arrived, instead of being met with understanding or even basic courtesy, I was treated with noticeable disrespect and arrogance by Patrick. he refused to even do part of the service I had booked. Ultimately, I was sent back upon arrival and did not receive the service I had scheduled. While I absolutely understand that punctuality is important and that salons run on tight schedules, the way the situation was handled felt unnecessarily hostile and unprofessional. There's a difference between enforcing policy and treating a client dismissively. At this price point, I expect professionalism, communication, and basic respect. Sadly, this visit left me feeling unwelcome and undervalued as a returning client. I hope management takes feedback like this seriously, because client experience matters just as much as the technical service.

I went to Amber+Slate for the first time today, and the place was lovely and the hair cut was good…read more When I went to check out, however, I was charged $50 for a conditioner treatment I don't remember requesting. When I asked about it, the stylist said quickly: "you agreed to it in the chair." I paid, but I honestly don't remember the interaction (and it was a short visit!). Paying 50% more than I was expecting, with no memory of agreeing, makes me feel like I have to be on guard next time I go. It was not a good way to end an otherwise lovely visit. I won't return.
