Jamie Lee is a literal miracle worker. When I tell you I came in there defeated over a failed attempt at beginning to get me back to blonde I was ready for anything. Once I explained I was ready to be rid of the red and go back to my blonde roots and she explained it would be a slow process with results each time that would definitely leave me lighter each time I was on board. Even more so over the fact that she refused to do anything bleach related to my hair without testing a small piece first to see how it would react/lift before moving forward. After every session I left feeling lighter physically and spiritually, she is a true artist. I couldn't be happier with the results and the care she takes every appointment. I simply cannot recommend her enough. The salon is also a clean, relaxing environment with kind women at every station and positivity all around. read more

I don't think I've ever written a review before, but after spending $300 to have my hair look almost exactly the same, it felt necessary. I booked an all-over color with Desiree and sent an inspiration photo before. At no point was I told the look I wanted couldn't be achieved, that bleach would be necessary, or that there were limitations because of my starting color. Instead, she proceeded with the service without ever explaining those limitations and allowed me to believe I would be walking out with the color I requested. As she was blow-drying my hair, she started telling me I would need to buy color-depositing products to "maintain" the color. She also repeatedly reassured me that my hair would be much lighter after the first wash because of something she had put over it to "protect the color." When she finished, my hair was significantly darker than the inspiration photo. I questioned it, but I was essentially told it looked amazing and that I just needed to trust the process. Against my better judgment, I did. Three days later, I washed it exactly as instructed. Shockingly... nothing changed. It was just as dark as the day I left. I reached out hoping the situation could be made right. Instead, I was told to buy more products and then offered an entirely different service (red highlights) that would require spending even more money. It's interesting that bleach was suddenly part of the conversation only after I'd already paid for a service that was never going to produce the result I requested. She also claimed she had told me beforehand that my hair wouldn't be as bright as the inspiration photo. That conversation never happened. Had it happened, I never would've agreed to the service in the first place. Any stylist who takes pride in their work would want to make things right. Instead, after multiple messages and practically begging for some accountability, she refunded me $50 (the amount that I tipped.) I'm still out $250 for a color service that left my hair looking virtually unchanged. The biggest issue wasn't even the color, it was the lack of communication and accountability. If a result isn't achievable, say so before taking someone's money. A good stylist sets realistic expectations instead of letting a client believe they're getting one thing, delivering something completely different, and then suggesting they spend even more money to fix it. I've attached the inspiration pic vs. actual result. The photos speak for themselves. read more

I've been coming to Impres and getting my hair done by Jamie for almost ten years. She's amazing! She's done color, highlights, and lots of fun cuts on my hair over the years. She's kind & personable and feels like a longtime family friend. She's talented at her craft and I'm always happy to see her! :) I'm three months postpartum and my most recent visit with her gave me the self confidence I've been lacking. read more

I would highly recommend Jamie Lee read more

Caution if you're considering booking here, especially for blonding services. Let me be clear, this review is specifically for the hairstylist Jaimie Lee Jeffries. This review is long overdue. Like many people, I stuck with Jamie longer than I should have simply because finding an affordable stylist who can handle blonde hair is difficult. Over time, I let things slide--but after my most recent appointment, I felt I owed it to others to share my experience. Jamie started off as assertive, which I initially appreciated, but as I continued seeing her (over a dozen times), that assertiveness began to cross the line into defensiveness and, frankly, bullying. Any time I tried to express something I didn't love about the results, I was immediately blamed. It got to the point where I felt too uncomfortable to speak up at all, which is not a dynamic any client should have with their stylist. The final straw came during my most recent appointment. I normally get my hair toned to a platinum blonde with a slight purple tint that fades quickly to the desired shade. This time, Jamie double-booked and told me she'd need to leave the toner on for twice as long--assuring me it would only be slightly more toned than usual. I walked out with full-on grey-purple hair. I gave it time to fade, as I was used to that process, but even after multiple washes over a month later, my hair still looked the same. I finally reached out to request a refund--not because I expected one, but because I couldn't in good conscience stay silent. To her credit, Jamie did refund me. However, the message was laced with blame again--this time attributing the color issues to my prescription medication and daily herbal supplements. I was then dropped as a client, which at this point felt more like a relief than anything else. I'm not writing this out of spite. I'm writing it because I don't want anyone else to go through the same stress, self-doubt, or hair damage I did. I imagine her reply to this will be laced with blame, but stylists should listen, take accountability, and create a safe space for clients--not leave them afraid to speak up. read more

It has been quite some time so time for an update on my review for this salon and specifically Jamie Lee. I can truly not say enough good things about Jamie Lee her skill as a hairstylist, her communication and her level of integrity when it comes to hair health To be completely honest with you I just moved back to California after two years and I think I was equally excited to accept my new job and come back but most excited to get back into the chair with Jamie Lee! For reference, I have been seeing Jamie Lee since 2013. She took my hair from black to blonde. I have been very bright blonde as well as more of the teddy bear bronde and she never misses. I have never left the salon upset about my haircut. It's perfect every time and those of you with curly hair should understand that is amazing in itself. A very huge thing for me with her is my hair has never been unhealthy and I have never ever had to sacrifice my length to have lighter hair! I drive over an hour to see her and will continue to do so. The salon itself is beautiful always clean and very well decorated. They have a lounge area. Should you arrive early and need to wait until your stylist is ready and all the stylists are very friendly. Different stylists at the salon have different prices & her prices are very fair. She always make sure you walk out happy and look great. Also, she's very honest with you at your consult and depending on your Hair goal & walks you through the steps she will take to achieve that for you. I highly recommend and I'm throwing in some photos from my hair transition dark to light. read more

First off I want to say that I've been going to Jaime Lee for YEARS! I'm in the military and have to have my hair a certain way and color and she listens to absolutely everything. I've only ever had 3 people in my entire life touch my hair and Jaime Lee is by far the best!! Here are two very different pictures of my hair both done by Jaime Lee. The blonde is what I do most of the time. I love that light summer blonde vibe and she delivers every single time. The other picture is of my dark hair I had to do for a time I wasn't going to be able to see her for over 6 months. I wanted more of my natural color - since I'm more dirty blonde these days we went darker. By the time I got back to see her for a color 6 months later you couldn't even tell where my old color line was. THAT'S HOW GOOD SHE IS! It took us only 3 sessions to get back to the blonde I had it at before and my hair is still healthy. Jaime Lee listens to what my needs are and lets me know the realistic way on how to achieve it. She isn't like other stylists who do what you want and then days later you hate it. You will love your hair every day if you take the chance. Don't listen to bad reviews, she's genuine and I couldn't be happier on how she treats me and my hair. read more

I go to Jamie Lee at this hair salon & she is the best at what she does ! I went in for colored highlights/balayage (mind you, I haven't done any color to my hair in over a decade) and she helped me choose the best color to suit my skin complexion & talked me through the whole process. She created the most perfect blend of color for my hair and I was extremely happy with the end results !! We finished off my service with a nice haircut to add some layers and face framing pieces to my hair. Jamie is so kind & welcoming, whether you're a first time client or a returning one. I always leave with the best satisfaction with her services !! read more

I have been going to impress hair salon with Jamie Lee Jeffries/Hector for nine years.

I've been going to Jamie Lee for my hair for the past 5 years, and she is absolutely amazing! She's incredibly talented, professional, and always knows how to make me look and feel my best, whether it's a cut, color, or style.

Everyone looked stunning, and Jamie Lee brought such a calm, positive energy that helped everything go smoothly. Her attention to detail and care really stood out.

Jamie has been doing my hair now for almost a year and I recently had her cut my daughter's hair as well. There are a lot of really great things about the salon but specifically about Jamie that I really LOVE. Jamie is super professional, she makes it easy to book appointments! She is great about discussing what you want to do with your hair BEFORE it gets done, and she was very upfront about the services and the costs BEFORE she starts! She is always happy to answer my questions or clarify things. I also feel that with today's salon prices- impres has VERY reasonable prices for their services! one of the best things I love about going to Jamie is she is really good at what she does and she is FAST! I have a lot of hair and we do a partial highlight and cut usually in 2 hours! I've been happy with the results each time, but I know if I had an issue with anything Jamie has a lot of integrity and would do her best to make me happy if needed. my daughter got a cute hair cut from her and she absolutely loved it. the salon is clean! it's cute! Jamie always offers me water or coffee she is so sweet and welcoming. I really look forward to my hair appointments with her. thank you Jamie! read more

Jamie worked on my hair for almost two years for Brazilian treatment and haircut then I decided to do highlights.first time she charged me $500 for full highlights and Brazilian treatment .last week went for partial highlights with Brazilian treatment another $500 when I didn't like the color at all because she did a completely different color than what I asked.After I paid ,said politely it's very dark She started shouting loudly , went inside and left me alone at the front desk. VERY BAD COSTUMER SERVICE. I was shocked from the way she left me. I texted her to do something about it , from here on out I'll not I'll not be offering my services to you .That was her answer and more and more answers that hurt my feelings . I don't recommend her to anyone. Bad service, very expensive and no manners at all. read more

Loved Roseanne, recommended by a friend. Listed for hair cut and color as $160.00. Went back based on my experience with Roseanne and unfortunately she wasn't available. I accepted Beth and she was super friendly but.... Now for cut and color still listed on the page as 160.00. At the register, I was informed with a haircut my total was 300.00! She said the cut was not included. I left and went back on the website to verify color and cut was 160.00. I emailed Beth asking for an explanation and never got a reply. Unfortunately, I'm sad that I feel like I got taken and do not plan to return. read more

If anyone is hesitant to try a new hairdresser, skip the anxiety and make an appointment with JamieLee at Imprés hair salon! JamieLee is incredibly talented and listened attentively to my requests. She also took the time to educate me about my wavy hair and the right products to use!

She really worked her magic to make my hair healthy and happy! Imprés hair salon was a 10/10 experience! read more

Rosanne is AMAZING! I don't understand the other reviews I've read on here because her attention to detail, professionalism, personality and clear passion for what she does is all 10/10. I set up an appointment online a couple days ago on Sept 10, the appt was for Sep 12. She texted me (my phone # was included on the request I guess) to let me know they don't use that system anymore (or that someone else accidentally accepted my appt, can't remember which) but regardless she still accommodated me with an appt on that day at a later time. That was just so sweet to me since my husband can only watch our daughter on Sunday's for me to get my me-time in She was so sweet and talkative with me, she explained everything she was about to do and made sure to listen when I gave her comments or asked questions. She wasn't heavy handed or rough which I've found so many hairdressers in the past to be. She gave me literally EXACTLY what I was wanting, I could cry! I didn't even show her a reference photo I just explained what I was looking for. She NAILED IT! I had super unruly hair coming into her. I last got a trim back in April, it was nearly waist-length and quite frizzy and dull. I wanted a lob to really switch up my look, and now that my daughter is nearing a year old and grabbing at everything - including my hair lol - it was time for a change. Will be coming back here for routine trims. Thank you Rosanne :) read more

Do NOT book with ROSEANNE!!!!! I got a haircut and dye job back in March! These are the pictures I took after my appointment. She didn't bother to take off the excess dye from my hairline and if you look at the cut there is such a huge stepping gap between the layers. I wanted long layers and she gave me a mullet! I had to go back the next day for her to "fix" and connect at least the stepping gap so it would flow. It was the worst haircut ever! Who wants a mullet? I wanted long layers and a balayage! She said in a couple of months my hair would grow back and she would color my roots for free and do a brighter toner so the blonde would be bright for the summer. I called her in May to make an appointment, no call no answer. Finally she called back saying she had a family emergency and would see me in June. I called back in June and then she said she was going through a lot but she could see me June 19th but never gave me a time. I called and texted for a time but she never got back to me. Finally she texted me and said she could see me on June 22 but again never gave me a time! When I tried to contact her for a time, again she never tried to get back to me! I got a hold of her by calling the salon the day of my appointment. She just happened to answered the phone and said she would call me back because she was with a client but never did! I had been going to her for a few years now but this drama draws the line!!!!! 3 no call no show appointments AND lack of expertise AND lack of professionalism - Sheesh!!!! No thank you!!!! I'll take my money and phat tips elsewhere!!!! read more
