I regularly see Brittany at the Strand for my haircuts and the occasional highlight. I've always…read morebeen happy with the cuts, especially during my long, drawn-out process of growing out my bangs. (Also provided: moral support while growing out the bangs, which I very much needed.) I have medium-dark blonde hair and Brittany has a light touch with highlights which brightens up the overall look of my hair color without giving me dark roots to worry about and maintain. I don't have the time or money to mess around with roots; subtle highlights are the goal for my hair and I'm consistently pleased with the results. The salon is in downtown Saratoga so you are paying Saratoga prices (sigh, I'm still a midwestern girl at heart, and the cost of living up here really hurts that heart). But, for Saratoga, this is the first place where I've reliably received haircuts and color that I like, can get an appointment in a reasonable amount of time, and the actual cut and color don't take foreverrrrrr. My previous salon once took a full 3.75 hours for a simple (and not that great) cut and highlight, which is *absurd*, and why I jumped ship. Please note that the Strand does *not* accept credit cards. Cash or check only! Parking can be found on the street if you're lucky, in the public library parking lot, or in the garages on Putnam St and Railroad Place. I think all of the parking in the area is 2 hour time limit between 8am-6pm.

From the first time I spoke to Ann-Marie she was such a gem. She set up a FaceTime call with me and walked me through exactly what we could do. Being that I was planning my wedding in Saratoga from Long Island, Ann-Marie was so flexible in working with me. She also gave me so many recommendations and referrals to other Saratoga businesses that could help with our wedding. All three of us were so happy, and felt so beautiful after working with Ann-Marie. She was so friendly, made us feel so comfortable, and did such beautiful work. I wouldn't have changed a thing about my hair or makeup, and I highly recommend checking out Crown for any beauty needs. Thank you Ann-Marie for helping me feel so gorgeous on my wedding day.

When the stylist answered she told me that the price was infact not correct and then thanked me for letting her know.

She even went as far as telling me direction on how to get to her suit. Then this morning the day of my appointment at 1:43 she messaged me accusing me of taking advantage of her.

I found…read moreMake Me Fab through a simple Google search at the start of my wedding planning last December. We were able to secure our weekend with them, and now that it has passed I cannot picture a better experience! Alayne runs her business so professionally, and is extremely well organized and kind, always answered my questions quickly and made me feel at ease about any changes I wanted to make after my bridal trial. Their salon is clean and cozy, and all the women who work there are so sweet! Lilly, my stylist for all things wedding throughout the planning, was truly one of the most talented makeup artists and hair stylists I've ever worked with. She always reassured me about any worries I might have, she was encouraging for me to feel my absolute best on my wedding day, and she completely calmed me down the morning of. All my bridesmaids were beyond complimentary of their looks and the efficiency of Lilly, Julie, and Liz being so kind and helpful, spending time with us in the morning. All in all, I could not recommend Make Me Fab more for any salon treatment or bridal experience if you are in the Saratoga/Albany area. I miss working with them already and can't wait to use their services for the future.

From the start, her team was incredibly organized and efficient -- quick to communicate, clear about the process, and so helpful in determining exactly what I needed. They provide a thorough contract and even offer add-ons like engagement shoot hair and makeup, rehearsal dinner glam, and other in-office services, which made everything seamless. Each time I visited for different wedding events, I left feeling absolutely beautiful. I had the privilege of working with Alayne herself for some of my services, as well as several of her amazing artists -- all of whom were professional, talented, and so easy to be around. On the wedding day itself, the Make Me Fab team arrived right on schedule and worked together like a well-oiled machine. Every one of the girls in my bridal party looked stunning. Alayne personally did my hair and makeup, and she truly brought my fairytale vision to life -- I felt like the princess I used to dream about being when I was a kid. I've already seen a few photos, and I'm in awe of how beautiful their work looked on camera. I felt so confident and radiant all day, and even my husband couldn't stop complimenting how amazing I looked! Everyone commented on how flawless the entire bridal party was. There's a reason Make Me Fab is so well-known in the wedding industry -- their work is simply that incredible. I can't recommend them highly enough!

I wound up getting Glenn, and he is amazing with a cut. The cut is relaxed, it falls well, and holds well. I was able to squeeze 2 months out of the cut before it started getting shaggy.

The price is right, and the cut is fantastic. They've been in the top 100 salons in the US several times and Glenn has worked with people like Nick Arrojo. They go to conferences and demos and are constantly trying to further their crafts. They will be moving in Dec, down to the Prcie Chopper plaza on South rte 50. I will be following them.

I would show them pictures and it still wouldn't even be close to what I wanted. When I made my appointment, I spoke with Danielle about it. She ask me to send her the pictures.

I couldn't believe it. I finally found a stylist who would take the time to do what I wanted. Danielle is very knowledgeable in her profession. And she knows how to mix color to get the color her clients want. I am so pleased with the cut, color and style that she did. Oh and she's great with the shampoo job she does. I was falling asleep while she washed my hair. She never splashed water in my face or anything. And the scalp massage was wonderful. I already have my next appointment scheduled. Thank you Danielle.

Carina embodies good energy and it radiates into her work. She was very communicative and thorough in making sure all costs were broken down. She was incredibly flexible to ensuring everyone's makeup was exactly how they wanted it. Some of my girls had a solid idea of what they wanted, others of us not. In both situations, Carina either crafted everyone's face exact to the picture she was following or just making it beautiful autonomously. She was awesome with the little girls as well, which was incredibly helpful. Everyone's makeup stayed fresh literally all night.
