The salon is cute and always tidy and clean. It's very close to Mass Street so it has a downtown Lawrence feel, but it still has its own parking lot and is easy to get to since it's just off 9th street. They have tons of products for purchase and knowledgeable & friendly people who work there and make an effort to make you feel welcome. Lexi has been doing my hair since my 2nd year of college in Lawrence and I moved with her from her old salon to Images. She has been with Images for several years now and she does a great job! She is very good at listening to what you want and delivering the look you want while still keeping your hair health at the forefront. She will work with your budget and make sure you leave feeling happy and confident! She will respect whether you want to have conversations the whole appointment of if you just want to close your eyes and have a quiet appointment. I look forward to my appointments each time I go because I know she will do a great job. read more

Images Salon & Day Spa - New trim and color by the amazing Lexi she can make me feel beautiful over 55 !!! A fresh look is just what the doc ordered ! - Nail Salons Near Me - Lawrence, Kansas

I have been going to Images Salon & Day Spa for 2.5 years now and don't see myself going anywhere else. I have since moved away and still make the drive! As soon as I walk in I am greeted with a smile. The salon is clean, organized, and is a cozy environment with all the hair necessities at my fingertips. I get my highlights done by Lexie, she is fabulous. She not only does outstanding work but also takes the time to listen to her clients about their hair goals. Ask her any question about her styling process and she has the answer! She presents herself very professionally but also likes to ensure her client is comfortable by connecting with them and holding valuable conversation through the styling process. read more

I received 2 services at Images. Their Eye lash specialist Summer is AWESOME! Amazingly clean. Some lash places I have questioned the cleanliness but not at all with Summer. She has a comfortable room for the services she does. 5 stars . She recommends I booked my first fill for 14 days out and I did before left. My hair service was excellent as well my stylist listened to what I wanted. Recommend the best way to get my look at home. I did overheard another stylist talking about curly hair with her client. She was totally teaching her person what to do'! Step by step. It was nice to be in a salon where the stylist is not having conversations with others instead of focusing on the person in the chair. I highly recommend this salon. read more

Images has everything you need! They carry great product, the building is always clean, and the staff are experienced, caring, and skilled. Lexie's expertise transformed my flat, thin hair to hair I'm proud of. I dreaded the hair salon until I started seeing her. She's taught me hair tips and maintenance while always giving me a style that I adore and can feel confident with. Total game changer! read more

Summer does excellent lashes! Highly recommended this place. Great vibe, welcoming atmosphere.

I don't just trust my hair or nails to anyone. Nope. I need the best. So when I moved to Lawrence from Chicago, I spent the first two months on the hunt for the right salon, the right stylist and the right nail tech. And like Goldilocks where the fit just wasn't right at all the other salons I tried, I knew when I pulled open the door to Images, I had found my new home. Taylar does my hair and it is a pleasure to put my locks in her capable hands. I look like a million bucks when I walk out of Images and everyone asks me who does my hair. A compliment to any stylist! As for nails- check out Valerie. She gives a great pedicure and also does shellacs. There is a private room for the nail portion of the business. Next thing to try is a facial as I have heard rave reviews about Cindy but haven't had the pleasure yet. The salon is super clean (a must) they run on time (another must) and the prices are in line with other good salons in town. And there is a small parking lot on the west side of the building for convenience. Hate to move to a new town and have to find a new place to do my "beauty tune-ups". But Images takes care of me every time I stop in! read more

Joelle is great! I have seen her a few times for haircuts and/or coloring. I appreciate that Images doesn't push hair products on you.

Kayla is amazing! If you're not afraid of a drastic makeover, neither is she. I went from curly hair halfway down my back to a partial-shave cut and she was all for it. I've never been happier with a haircut in my life! Been going off and on since (I'm shaving my own head) when I want to get things shaped up and she never makes me feel like a bad customer for not coming in "regularly". read more

Amber S is the most amazing curly hair stylist I've ever had the pleasure of seeing. Seriously. Treat your curls. Learn how to manage them and make them beautiful and healthy. Make an appointment with Amber. read more

Rude management, you'd think confirming a week before would mean that your appointment is confirmed; thus the definition of confirmation, but here at Images Salon and Day Spa their organization is so poor you'd wonder what color the sky is in their little world. First haircut in a year and a half and it would be easier to find someone to ceremoniously behead me after committing seppuku than it would be to get an appointment at this horrendously run hair place. Haven't fealt this way since my dad left me for his other family and my mom was murdered by a terrorist in the same week. read more

I am a loyal customer of Cindy, the esthetician. Never have I had such quality interaction and service from a salon person, as I have from her. Her approach to facials and waxing is calming and soothing, while at the same time very educational and informative. For her facials, which are outstanding, she is very knowledgeable about a range of skin and health issues. I now know exactly what is happening with my face and how to manage it. Also, I brought in my products and she analyzed the ingredients to help me figure out which ones to continue using -- she wasn't just there to sell me tons of products I didn't need, which so many salons do. (The line they carry, Dermalogica, is good stuff, nonetheless) The people at Images are professional, the salon is clean and appealing, and Cindy is absolutely top-notch. read more

I have come here twice to get my eyebrows waxed. Both times Cindy did a wonderful job. She's given me the best experience and eyebrows I've had. Not only does she wax, but she plucks and trims eyebrow hairs too which all the other places I've gone haven't. Hands down the best. I am living in Topeka for the summer and still drove to Lawrence just to get me eyebrows done here. Also, it's reasonably priced at $17 for an eyebrow wax. read more

Images Salon & Day Spa - After I got my eyebrows done - Nail Salons Near Me - Lawrence, Kansas

See all

I have been going to Images for a few years, and have never had a bad experience. From the receptionists, to the hairstylists, every single person is welcoming, friendly, and kind. Also, I have never received a service I was not completely happy with (hair cut/color, facial, wax, or pedicure.) Sadie is an amazing hairstylist who takes the time to understand her clients wants/needs and produces work that exceeds expectation. Even when I can't explain exactly what I want, she does it and it looks better than what I tried to explain! Cindy, the esthetician, has provided me with the best eyebrows a girl could ask for (and most recently a chemical peel)! I would recommend Images to anyone looking for a great hair cut/color, facial (or other service), at a great price and for an amazing salon experience. read more

They recently rearranged the layout of the entrance & I'm not sure how I really feel about that. There are now less chairs to sit upon while you wait to be served, but it's easier to see all the various products they sell. You can also help yourself to a beverage while you wait. I love their facials! I normally go for the 1 hour facial for $65, and you can add services to it as well such as a parafin dip or an anti-aging treatment for your hands, and so forth. They also offer a 1.5 hour facial, but I've never treated myself to that services. Cindy does a great job of taking care of your skin and listens to your concerns regarding skin care. She uses Dermalogica products and gives you samples to take home to see if you like them before spending money on products. I also like how positive she is, which makes for a relaxing and soothing experience while getting a facial. I've also utilized their waxing services and was quite pleased with the results. read more

I grew up in Lawrence but live in Chicago now and every time I come home I try to see Cindy, the esthetician, for a facial. Her facials are exceptional, and I've been to some of the supposed best places for quality facials in Chicago. Cindy's beat theirs every time. I also used to see Cindy for waxing in high school and she was great. Very fast! Cindy is extremely knowledgeable about products and skin issues, and how to tackle the issues you have. She uses Dermalogica products for the most part and they are fantastic. Cindy is never pushy about purchasing the products in store - she simply makes her suggestions and answers questions thoughtfully and thoroughly and let's you do what you're comfortable with. I grew up going to Images for my haircuts and have never been disappointed. Overall, its a well maintained, professional, and friendly salon. Cindy is their shining star. read more

I love images! I have been trying to find a salon for myself fora while and this is it! I go to Traci and she is so knowledgable. We actually have a plan in place to help grow my hair out. She noticed right away I had chemical damage and made a full plan just for me. Im sire the rest of their staff is equally wonderful and I loom forward to going there for a long time!!! read more

I see Joelle at Images for cuts and color. I like to change my hairstyle or color just about every time I go and Joelle has good advice for helping me decide what to do with my hair. She has a good sense of style and is very versatile in the types of haircuts she does (she cuts and styles hair for my husband and mother-in-law). The atmosphere at Images is relaxing. The space is large but cozy. I haven't tried their other services but I would like to as I've heard great things about their esthetician. Highly recommend Images and definitely book with Joelle! read more

Not worth the money. They charge 50 dollars for a haircut which is fine if they do it really good. But it turns out same as a 10 dollars haircut or even worse than that. I suggest you go somewhere else for a haircut. read more

I love this Place. Amber Smith does my hair and she is fantastic! I also go to Taylar for my nails. She is great and so much fun! Every time I go into the salon I feel so welcome and taken care of. From their receptionist Jennifer, to the girls pampering me. Love! read more

This was not a good experience. They were understaffed and had to turn quite a few walk-ins away. There were lots of flies around. I wasn't offered the same level of service or extra options that other clients were. The actual polish job was poorly done and didn't look very good and I got ingrown toenails after visiting this place. Would not recommend. read more

Zero stars. Have you ever had the dream where you go into the salon for a trim and come out with your hair 8 inches shorter? I am now living that nightmare. My long luscious locks were snipped into a blunt uneven "v cut". Thank God a different stylist actually took the time to style my hair... or I wouldn't have been able to wait until I got in the car to start crying. read more

LOVE Images Salon! I've been going there for a couple of years. Scott is AMAZING! I often go in with a general idea of what I want and always walk out satisfied. I have semi-curly hair and it's hard to find stylists that know how to cut it. I recently moved to DC and have found that it's hard to get a fabulous hair cut for under $100. When I return home to Kansas, I always try to schedule an appointment with Scott. Images it THAT good :) read more

I got the impression that the person (hair stylist) doing my pedicure was less than thrilled seeing as how she was late. She was happy to hear all my personal chit chat info. She mentioned that she had to run my chosen nail paint under hot water and use a vice grip to open the bottle since it had not been used since last year. The disposable flip flops used are so poorly designed that it is nearly impossible to get them on even my very thin feet without ruining the wet paint. When my big toe paint all but came off in the process she blamed me for trying to "help" and told me that I should not have done that. She repainted the toe and told me not to "help" again. She seemed rushed but said I could set and let the paint dry for "as long as my little heart desired". As soon as she left the room, another staff person rushed in to clean the chair and stopped abruptly telling me that she didn't expect to find me in it! The actual paint job? Sloppy, ragged, plus it had the grown out look right from the salon. read more

We worked with Valerie to plan the salon services for my daughter's wedding day. She was great to work with! Valerie answered all my calls and emails quickly. She suggested we start a little earlier to get everyone done in time and back to the hotel. I'm so glad she did! Images was able to do the hair for all six girls at one time which worked out great for us. My daughter also had her makeup done and it was perfect. Very pretty but not overdone which is what she wanted. All the girls loved their hair and the stylists were so nice and made the experience fun. I highly recommend Images for anyone planning a wedding or special event. They did a fantastic job for us! read more

BUYER BEWARE. My friend recently got married, and found Images Salon when she searched online reviews for salons in the Lawrence area. Initially, I had an appointment at a different salon, but after speaking with the bride about cost, (based on a price quoted by Images) I decided to get my hair styled at Images instead. Big mistake. I was talking with the stylist about what I wanted her to do to my hair, and I asked for confirmation that it was $50 for an updo. The stylist advised me that the cost was actually $60 for an updo. I then explained that I didn't want to spend that much, so I would just have her style my hair. I told her that my friend received a price quote of $18 ($9 for a bang trim, $9 for my hair to be flat ironed or curled). The stylist seemed to immediately become defensive and irritated, and advised me that an updo/style are the same price. She also informed me that the credit card would be charged regardless. First of all, I'm not sure how an updo costs the same as flat ironing, or even curling someone's hair. I was in complete disbelief, as the situation was unexpected, and nothing like nothing I've ever experienced. The stylist asked if I wanted to talk with the manager, which I did. I explained to the manager the situation, and that my friend was quoted something entirely different. I even showed the manager the text message from my friend which contained the pricing information she obtained from the salon. The manager simply stated that the quote was incorrect, that they didn't give my friend that price. I'm not sure how my friend would have just come up with that figure on her own, but the manager also told me that the credit card would be charged regardless. It's a difficult situation to be in, as I didn't want to pay a price that differed (greatly) from what was quoted, but I also didn't want to have my friend get stuck with my bill. I also didn't want to cause a scene, or stress out my friend on her wedding day. At that point, I felt bullied into having my hair done at this salon. It also made for an awkward situation between the stylist and me as well. I wasn't even pleased with the finished product, and no, it wasn't because of what had happened prior. The bride's hair was no better. Her stylist curled her hair, and then brushed it out. That's it. So, she also paid $60 for a hair style that she or I (or almost anyone) could have done to her hair for free. Not to mention my the bride's hair was frizzy after it was "styled". Her stylist also rushed her. When my the bride was trying to explain how she wanted her hair styled, the stylist remarked that her next appointment was going to be arriving. Why would you schedule wedding hair so close to another appointment that all you have time to do is put it in rollers, and then brush it out? Our other friend also wasn't happy with her hair, and even explained that to her stylist. The stylist didn't seem to care, only asking what my friend was unhappy with. My friend explained to her what she didn't like, and the stylist basically told her she needed to "go with it". She of course also paid $60 for her hair. When we went to pay, and I was asked to pay $60, the bride was confused, and was asking why the amount was different than what she was quoted. Again, I didn't want to unnecessarily stress out the bride, so I told her we'd discuss it later. In a nutshell, I wouldn't recommend this salon to anyone. It was poor customer service at the very least. I would think most places would be interested in trying to do what's right, and if they didn't honor the price that THEY quoted, they would at least work with me some on cost. Instead, they wanted to split hairs (no pun intended) over $40. So, instead of a glowing review, I'm advising people to steer clear. I can honestly say that I've never been treated this poorly at a salon. If I could, I wouldn't give the salon any stars. You've been warned. read more

This place is a joke they will tell you one thing over the phone when you call to inquire about the place and then turn around and tell you something totally different from the first time you called when you call the second time and deny ever telling you what they told you during the first conversation read more

I received the worst highlights from here. I clearly asked for natural highlights just to lighten up the roots a bit. I have never received bad highlights before, but this was my first time getting my hair done in Lawrence (would not recommend). I left the salon looking like Eminem with bleach blonde hair and some streaks of orange. Natural eh? Thanks for ruining the only redeeming quality about me. I was too overwhelmed to say anything to my stylist when leaving, but as soon as I got home I called the salon. I told them how much I didn't like my highlights and that it was definitely NOT what I had asked for. I was looking for a refund because at this point I had turned into Justin Bieber. I did not feel comfortable going back to see the same lady that had just destroyed my hair. They would not give me a refund and would only let me see the same stylist later that day so she could attempt to fix the damage. Key word attempt. On returning to the salon, the stylist was acting bothered with me. There is no way she thought my hair looked "so cute"...I looked like a skunk. So basically what I'm trying to say is that along with my hair being ruined for lets say another year...and wasting $60 bucks...this place has terrible customer service. I STILL WANT MY REFUND. If you're wondering, no, I haven't been sporting my new "doo" I've been wearing a hat ever since. This is actually a shame because I have gotten some great waxes from here and have to take my business elsewhere now. read more

This place seemed great online and has gotten some good reviews, so I made an appointment here instead of my regular stylist who was out of town. I went in to my appointment with pictures of the hair color and cut that I wanted and had to wait an hour before anyone told my stylist that I was there. She never came to see for herself, thinking I was a no show and took her lunch break instead. When I finally got to see her, I showed her the photos and she got started. Everything went fine until she was finished. My color was almost exactly the same as when I walked in. I asked for and showed her red hair, when what I got was brown. She also forgot that I needed it cut and sent me to pay before she was done. I had to ask her twice to cut my hair before she remembered, she then proceeded to give me an awful cut that looked nothing like what I asked for. Then when I washed my hair 24 hours later, exactly as she instructed, all of the (wrong) color she put in washed out and went down the drain. I got out and dried my hair to see that not only was it still an ugly cut, but it also was my natural color except for bright red roots. I went in the next day to complain and ask for my money back ($64 is worth fighting for) and was refused in a very rude manner and told that unless I let them try again, they wouldn't help me. I made this appointment at the time that I did because that is when I needed it done, I don't have the time to let them try to fix what should have been done correctly in the first place. I will not let them ruin my hair again, this is ridiculous. My mother emailed the owner to complain too and I received a very rude, sarcastic email the next day from the owner about my mother. This salon is unprofessional and does NOT know what they are doing. I will NEVER go back here again. read more
