i've been bouncing from salon to salon for about a year looking for a place, i've gone to a lot of different salons in mercer county, some twice, but was still looking for a place that i left feeling happy without feeling like i couldn't eat lunch for the next three days because of what i just spent. i read some good reviews about issalon and decided to give it a try this morning and think i've finally found "my place!" i got there 15 minutes early for my appointment and ally took me almost immediately. i was scheduled for full highlights and am usually a little anxious in a new place but she was awesome, friendly, and so relaxed. i never worried for a second because she clearly knew what she was doing. i have trouble making decisions and a lot of salons will just sit and not give me feedback, but ally was so sincere and i really valued her input, which ended up spot on. she wasn't pushy and didn't try to convince me to buy anything or get services i didn't need or ask for just to jack the bill up, just made suggestions that were so appreciated. she was honest and gives great advice! i paid literally half as much as i have been paying in other salons, but left twice as happy, i will definitely be back :) kerry read more

I visited this salon hoping for a relaxing experience, but it was disappointing! The staff didn't seem very welcoming when I arrived. I had to wait almost 30 minutes even though I had an appointment. The stylist didn't really listen to what I wanted for my haircut. The result was uneven and not at all what I asked for! The tools didn't look very clean, which made me uncomfortable. When I mentioned my concerns, they didn't apologize properly. For the price they charge, I expected much better service. Sadly, I won't be coming back here again. read more

I've been there twice and very pleased. Issa listens, then makes suggestions. Going back in December for visit #3.

Issa gives a good cut but at $95 I can't afford this every few weeks. Had it been at what other salons are charging I would have gone back.

Our whole family comes to Issalon and highly recommend. Whether it's color, cut, or you want a new style, to a quick trim/clean-up: you always walk out feeling like a million bucks. Great atmosphere, people, and excellent stylists (especially love Elli)! read more

The best salon on the planet! Issa is the very best followed by the best staff ever! My happy place!

Constant dish washing had done in my gel manicure done in Sacramento two weeks earlier. Paula was able to save the day by replacing the gel, making my hands look great again. She was professional in all areas and I truly enjoyed the time I spent in the salon. read more

I LOVE ISSALON!!! Jenn did my hair last Friday and it looks amazing... I got a cut, my roots done, and teal hi-lights... and it looks perfect... exactly what I asked for!! Thank you again Jenn... I love it as always!!! read more

Went there for the first time after reading several reviews. Had a great experience with Shannon. Prices are competitive. Would highly recommend on the atmosphere alone because it is a low-key very professional and comfortable salon. Talented professionals! read more

Ellie at this salon has been my secret treasure for curly hair ! after years of searching for a perfect diva cut I finally found it.

Emilia is very nice! Salon is very cool! But after wash my hair I didn't like the result so I will give one star. I'm not happy.

I found this salon on Yelp and I recommend it highly. Every one of the staff is friendly and welcoming. I feel like they value my business. Best of all is Sandy, who is wonderful with short hair. She listens but will also offer creative advice about something fresh to do. I LOVE this place! read more

Best salon and very good people. I will not go anywhere else. All the stylists are very good to work with and they do not engage in small talk. Very professional. read more

Saturday was my first visit to the salon. I was scheduled with ally for a haircut. She's amazing and highly recommended. read more

Best cut I've ever had. Issa's attention to detail is never missing. My wife gets her hair done here and it always looks great. We'll never look for another salon. read more

I went here today for the first time, and I couldn't be happier. Beth was very thorough, showed me all of the color swatches and made sure we agreed on the right color. She was very friendly and attentive, making sure I was comfortable, offering me coffee or water, etc. I got a very vivid red color, and she made sure she cleaned up all the dye on my hairline, and she gave me some tips for making the color last longer. The color is gorgeous, and the charge for a single-process and blowout was only $75, which is less than I'm used to paying. I'm definitely going back to Beth when it's time for a touch-up! read more

I went to this salon for the first time today... Shannon was awesome. I got highlights an a haircut. I wanted a new style and she did a great job. The highlights looks perfect very natural. She listened to me and I left a very happy client... I will def return to issalon to see Shannon. read more

A top notch Salon that offers spectacular service whether you just walk in or have an appointment. The owner and staff did an amazing job on my mother, daughter and I. They care about the customer and not rushing to take in the next client. We were all satisfied with our hair and make up. They are pricey but worth the cost. My only complaint...they are a cash only salon. If credit cards were accepted I feel they would increase there clientele starting with me and my company of ladies. read more

This salon was amazing. My hairdresser, Zariya was amazing to work with, she made excellent recommendations and the final result was spectacular! Definetely coming back! read more

The staff here is top notch. They always do a awesome job on my hair and their prices are very reasonable. I've gotten highlights here as well and they came out great. I come all the way from NYC to get my hair cut here! read more

My mom and I have been coming to this salon for years. All the stylists are so friendly and they do such a great job. We usually see Ellie and she is so patient and takes her time to make everything perfect! My mom loves to get her nails done at the salon also and she always tells me how she feels so relaxed after her experience. Even though we have moved out of the area we come back just to get our hair done here! read more

I called the salon at the last minute, hoping to be squeezed in, but didn't have high expectations since I was a new customer. They were able to fit me in almost immediately. It was so refreshing to go to a salon where the stylist (Shannon) was friendly but not nosy, did a great job, and didn't charge outrageous prices. It cost me about $125 plus tip for highlights and a trim. I have finally found a salon that I want to return to! read more

I've relocated to the area and always hate having to find a new stylist. I liked my haircut by Sandy and will return. The 4 star rating is for the price. I thought $55 was a bit steep and should have included a nice scalp massage during the shampoo. read more

I went to get a baylage by Ally and had never colored my hair before and was super nervous. She was so sincere and went for a subtle blonde. I loved it but after 2 weeks decided I wanted to go for something more. I saw Emilia and she was the sweetest thing and did a gorgeous job taking my blonde baylage to a more drastic ombre and blended it so perfectly. Love the staff there and don't think I could trust anyone else with my hair. read more

Have been going to Issalon for years. Issa gives amazing cuts and does things with my super thick hair I never imagined would be possible. Eli's color application is always perfect. All staff are attentive and kind.Give them a try! read more

Issa is a master at cutting hair! A few strokes of the scissors and he's created a great haircut!!

I went to Issalon for the first time yesterday. Elli was terrific. She listened to what I wanted but more importantly she listened to what I didn't want. She took her time, was extremely friendly and pleasant. She took me out of my comfort zone which is exactly what I needed and I'm very happy with the outcome. I will definitely be back. read more

Beyond Comparison. Cordial, professional, Staff. Owner, Isa is so creative and he really knows Hair and updates his skill. Comfortable environment. All stylists, like Ellie extremely focused and is passionate about hair. read more

I have naturally curly hair and I finally found a salon and hairdresser that is AWESOME! Issa is attentive to my hair needs and knows exactly how to control my hair. His staff is professional and accommodating. I have been going to the salon for over a year and will not let anyone else touch my hair. They are priced very fair and have a great selection of products as well. This salon is tops in my book!! read more

Issalon is fantastic! I've been going here for years and I've always been so pleased. Jen does a beautiful job on my color and Issa's haircuts can't be beat! Best salon around ! read more

can't say enough about this salon!!! the best of the best. I have been going there for the last 10 years cannot tell you how many people ask me where i get my haircut!! Issa is a doll tells you the truth. Sometimes I don't even need a haircut just color,after a three month period that's how good his haircuts are. Very reasonably priced, the staff is great and they do accept credit cards. love them highly recommended!! read more

I followed my stylist here from another salon. The space and prices are above-average for the area. What I like most about this place is that they don't over-book the appointments. I hate places which double and triple book appointments. There is no idle waiting here. You get in, and out. I never have a problem booking an appointment, all the staff are friendly and nice. I love Angie. I have been going to her for years and always get compliments on my color. read more

Issa is the bomb! and Elli is unbelievable!!! Together I have the best of both worlds. Issa always cuts my hair and Elli keeps up with my color, which is monthly. The prices are good and they are so accomodating. From the front desk throughout the entire shop everyone is friendly and upbeat! I am so lucky to have found such a great place. Love Love Love them! read more

Love my highlights! Ellie did a beautiful job highlighting my long hair. I am so pleased; it looks great! She is wonderful to work with, a sincerely nice person and a skilled stylist. read more
