First off, they are apparently a long-standing salon but recently opened up with a new, sleek modern look. When I called to make the appointment, they were quick to answer and it was very easy to schedule. I went for a basic women's haircut which was $75. Lilian was friendly and clearly cared about doing a great job, listening to how I was wanting the hair to be cut. Going from longer hair to a shoulder length cut along with a shampoo and dry all took just under an hour. I am definitely interested in coming back! They're located on the second floor of a plaza with lots of parking, although it can be busy.

Unfortunately, the communication and…read moreoverall experience were so frustrating that I ultimately decided I wasn't comfortable booking a treatment with a business that couldn't clearly confirm the specific dates and times I was requesting. UPDATE: 8/09/2026 -- In response to the owner's comment: Your response makes it clear that you did not fully understand my original review, which unfortunately reflects the same communication issue I experienced while trying to book an appointment. I went back and forth attempting to schedule for weeks and tried to book on three separate occasions. When I finally called and someone answered, there was a significant communication barrier, and the call ultimately ended with the person hanging up on me. You're correct that I've never received a service at your salon--but that is precisely the point of my review. I repeatedly tried to become a customer and was unable to successfully book an appointment. My review is about the customer service and booking experience I personally received. If your salon is so heavily booked that you are unable to accommodate new clients, I completely understand. However, potential clients should simply be told that upfront rather than spending weeks attempting to schedule an appointment that is never confirmed. Professionalism begins before a customer ever walks through the door, and unfortunately, my experience trying to become a client was enough for me to decide to take my business elsewhere.

Nonetheless, this place still gets the job done right. I walked in on a Sunday around 3:45 PM and, despite seeing about 3-4 people ahead of me, I was seated by 4:35 PM - not a bad wait at all! I opted for the wash, cut, and blowout, which came out to a total of $35. I was finished by 5:05 PM, so the service was quick and efficient. (You can call ahead and make an appointment as well). They also let you check the front and back of the hair with a mirror to make sure you like it. Open on Saturdays and Sunday - so perfect for those who are busy/don't have time on the weekdays and need something quick. A heads up: they only accept cash or Zelle, so come prepared. Street parking is available. Overall, If you want a simple, straightforward, budget-friendly haircut without the fancy extras, this salon is a solid choice.

I've had my hair short almost a year now, although I've been enjoying it, I haven't had as many compliments as when I started coming to Brandon a couple of months ago. After his cuts I keep receiving multiple compliments daily! I've been to salons where even if you're early, (to not get penalized for being late), in the end they make you wait. But In The Loop was kind enough to understand that my phone wasn't working therefore couldn't map it and helped me by giving instructions and waiting for me. Once there, Brandon did a swift but thorough job, which works out perfect, since I do not miss those longer hours on the chair. All these details make my experience at In The Loop a 5 Star. read more

I can't say enough great things about In The Loop salon and especially Justin, the master stylist! From the moment you walk in, everyone is so friendly and professional, and the atmosphere is really welcoming. Justin is truly amazing at what he does he takes the time to listen, makes sure you're comfortable, and you can tell he genuinely cares about his clients. Not only is he incredibly skilled, but he's also just such a nice person to be around. I always leave feeling refreshed, confident, and taken care of. Highly recommend Justin and the whole team at In The Loop! read more

This review is for Jodie. She does such a fantastic job! I started going to her ~5 years ago and have never left with a bad cut or color (blonde!). I have also transitioned to a more natural color (dark blonde/light brown) and back, and my friends were very complimentary of my transition - thanks to Jodie. On top of that, she's young and fun, so the conversation is always easy. Highly recommend if you're looking for a new stylist or need to switch things up! She won't do you wrong. The salon itself is also great - very clean with good vibes. read more

I went in on a Saturday to make my appointment specifically with Odilia for the following Wednesday. Fortunately, I was able to briefly speak with her to discuss what I wanted - highlights [3 colours] and a good haircut; she told me her prices for each and, being in line with what I've paid in the past, solidified the appointment. I arrived at 11:30 am. We took a few minutes to discuss what I wanted, both in colour and cut. I repeated that I wanted highlights and that I usually have three colours used; I showed her two different pictures of my own hair colour for reference. Odilia commented, "You really like your golden blonde." (see profile photo) Was told that I would be out of there in "three hours, tops" (sounds about right - I have lot of hair). Odilia comes out with two tubs of colour - a highlight and a lowlight. I never asked for a lowlight, but this is not my profession and maybe she sees something I don't. This was a very slow process. Literally. I have never in my life had the back of my hair finish processing and be rinsed before the rest of my hair is processed under a dryer. When the colouring is complete, there is cutting. A lot of cutting. More cutting than I requested, but my hair grows fast and it's really not a big deal. And, in all honesty, it is a good healthy cut. FIVE HOURS + LATER (yes, you read that correctly) and nearly $400 lighter - I walk out with taupe / light brown hair. Not even close to what I asked for when I walked in. And I was charged for lowlights, something I never requested. Salon lighting is always different than home lighting, so I thought maybe it wasn't really as dark as it appeared. Nope, it was. I immediately called the salon and spoke with Odilia, explaining that nobody's happy and this isn't going to work. Giving credit where credit is due - she offered to correct it immediately, but my time constraints did not allow for me to return for two weeks. During this time, girlfriends said the colour was beautiful (honestly, it was)...but definitely not "my" colour. While many of you may have had, or continue to have, a positive experience at this salon - I did not.
