I have been going The Ivy Salon for about 4 years. Renae has been cutting and coloring my hair from day 1. I couldn't ask for a better and honest stylist. The quality of service, staff, and products are amazing. I highly recommend Renae to anyone in search of a GREAT stylist!! read more

Steph is awesome! I been going to her for quite a while, even before she was at this salon! Every time I see her, it's always a bomb experience! She never lets me down and she knows exactly what I want, and how I want it! She's an awesome person in and out of the Salon! If you wanna get a awesome haircut/style, she's the go-to gal! Love her and this place! Awesome environment!! read more

I had an appointment with Jamie, it was my first time there. She did an amazing job. I got a new cut and color, something completely different. Went from blonde shoulder length hair to a a line cut with a rich beautiful auburn color. I am completely happy with my new look. read more

Worst salon I have ever been to!!! I can't speak for their other services but If you are planning on getting a Brazilian Blowout here save your time and money. I had got the Brazilian Blowout done on my hair more than a hand full of times, knew how my hair reacted to the treatment and always loved the results. So when I saw a special for one on Groupon I thought I would try out a new salon. I got the treatment done on my hair and it didn't work at all. My hair was still puffy and frizzy. So I called to see if there was something that could be done. After the girl told me all the reason why it might not have worked she agreed to let me come in and they would redo the treatment. I was a little frustrated because I am blind and don't drive so I would have to find transportation out there AGAIN but I was also glad they were willing to fix the problem, so I thought. When I returned the stylist, Adrienne, argued with me for 20 minutes telling me all the things I must be doing wrong that made the treatment not work. She took a round brush and blow dryer to a piece of my hair for about 5 minutes and then said she didn't see the frizz I was talking about and finished it off by saying if I was seeing any frizz it was probably my split ends. Have to love when people top off excuses with insults, good costumer service. I thought this was funny considering that during me first visit she told me how nice my hair was. In the end, even though I was told they would redo the treatment, she refused stating it would just waste their product. I wasted 2 trips out to the salon and around $200 and am going to have to pay to have the treatment done right somewhere else. After reading my review this salon continues to show their horrible costumer service. Instead of apologizing for a costumer being unhappy they write a comment filled with lies and once again blaming and insulting the costumer. My boyfriend spoke maybe to sentences while we were there and they had nothing to do with my hair. I opted to not buy their recommended products because we all know that salons try to push their products and I already had sulfate free shampoo and conditioner that I use every time I get a Brazilian blowout which always works perfectly fine Also considering I NEVER asked for any money back and gave a $40 tip on a $145 service that I assumed was done correctly makes their statement that I am trying to get free stuff ridiculous. read more

i have been to this salon a few times, now because it does have a nice ambiance, but each time i have been in there the management is constantly moving furniture around, disturbing what should be a relaxing experience. Also the last time i was in there, i had the suggestions of fillers such as botox pushed upon me, and i was greatly offended at the suggestion that i could use such injections seeing as i am not even 25 years old. I will not be back! read more

This was a surprisingly delightful find. It is kind of in a weird location (sandwiched between thrift shops, a bar and other random stuff) but once you step inside, you'll be drawn into its large, open space; warm ambiance and friendliness of the staff. On a Friday afternoon, the salon was packed with many people getting pampered in a variety of ways. On my way walking to the massage room in the back, I passed by an impressive supply of Essie nail polish in their nails section, barber chairs seated with chatting friends getting haircuts, and a tanning room. The massage itself was not bad- I got a pretty good deal from Groupon. The room is small, cozy and tastefully styled. I liked the bed because it was heated and very fluffy and relaxing. Kristen did a great job relieving the tension in my body and paying attention to specific needs. Definitely a great place to try if feeling the need to get pampered within the Riverside area. read more

Just got my blowout done by Renae she is amazing! I will definitely be back! My hair looks great

I was rescheduled twice by the salon. Once I arrived for my appointment, my session got started 25 minutes late. I don't mind waiting for 10 minutes but after that it's just wasting the clients time and I'm sure the stylists expect their clients to be on time. As a note to the salon, obviously the stylist knows they are running behind and the next client should be notified. The only reason I'm giving the salon two stars instead of one is because once I arrived, the owner was nice and the stylist was nice and seemed very knowledgeable. I ended up not receiving a service because the stylist didn't recommend it for my hair which is not my complaint. My complaint is the salon obviously needs a skilled receptionist to properly book clients. I brought this up with the owner and she mentioned the person answering the phones was filling in. In response to that, I'm not the first person to complain about being rescheduled, so it seems it's an issue based on other Yelp reviews. Also, when someone called me back to reschedule, I asked if there were more appointments available since they had to reschedule me a week after my original appointment. The response was: "Not all of the stylists want to do the Groupon for Brazilian Blowouts because they don't make any money off of the service". To say the least this left a bad taste in my mouth. What an unprofessional and rude response. Maybe the salon is good but I would never recommend buying a Groupon for this place. read more

Such a great salon! My hair is always so taken care of. I have never left unhappy. Cristina and Alex are so good!! I get so many compliments on my cut and color; I am constantly recommending other people to go to see them! read more

Tried twice to have my manicure gels done, both times after they repeatedly text me about my appointment, they cancelled them right before my appointments. I had scheduled and wanted my nails done the day before my trips but both times I had to go without because of the cancellations. If I cancelled 10 minutes before my appointment I sure would have heard about it. Today, it took me 30 minutes to get there then I get a call as I am parking. Not going to this place ever again! Also, there is only one person there doing nails, I would have gone to someone else there if they had another manicurist. read more

I had a wonderful experience with the brazilian blowout. The salon is nice and the stylist knew what she was doing. My only complaint is that in the 3+ years I've been getting blowouts done I have never had to pay extra ($25) for my barely past my shoulders hair. I found that to be a bit excessive. Otherwise, I will continue to use this salon in the future. In fact, I went back the next day for a pedicure and it was very relaxing. read more

I started coming to this salon because I followed Stephanie Foley from her old spot. I've been a client of hers for over 3 years now and don't plan on ever switching. She is the best hairstylist/Barber I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. I'm a shy person but she always makes me feel comfortable and makes me laugh. She really listens to exactly what I want and gives me great suggestions when I want to change it up or can't decide between styles. I've sent so many people to her and never heard one bad thing. Pretty much all my friends and family go to her now. She is that good! The rest of the salon is also friendly. Every time I come in, I'm promptly greeted with a smile and offered a drink. I love this place! read more

My fist time at the Ivy with Rende and she did an awesome job. She matched my color perfectly and I love the way she styled it.

Thank you Renae for my split end correction treatment and trim!! My hair feels silky and soft. Thank you for recommending the heat protector. Excellent job!! read more

Impossible hair? Guys, Stephanie Foley is the one you want! For years I kept my hair short and shaved. I had given up on the idea of growing it out and styling it because of its coarse texture, unpredictability, and stubborn high maintenance. I would take it to barber after barber and never leave satisfied. Well, recently, I felt adventurous and decided to give it another try. My buddy Andrew recommended Steph and because I trust his judgement I gave her a try -- and from that day forward, I'll never go anywhere else! Not only was she able to get this head of madness under control, she patiently showed me how to manage it between cuts. She recommended great hair products that she allowed me to try before buying. That was huge because I left assured that she wasn't just trying to make a sale, but she genuinely cares and is very knowledgeable. Her range is incredible, from great fades to awesome scissor cuts. She works with her clients to help them find the perfect style for them. She is truly a master at her craft; and if that wasn't enough, she offers refreshments and great conversation. I highly recommend her! She's the one you want! read more

Kristy Ledesma colored and cut my hair, as well as my daughter, last week. Ordinarily, when I enter a salon, I feel ugly, dumpy and quite uncomfortable. The ambiance of Ivy, immediately relaxed me. Kristy was very sweet and professional. She demonstrated excellent knowledge of her craft. I was sure I would leave with my hair intact. Indeed, I did. Kristy styled my hair to work with my lifestyle, but with a wonderful flair of color, just as I'd requested. My daughter's highlights are gorgeous, as well. Great atmosphere, fabulous service, good products and I didn't go broke. And I feel pretty, sexy and on my game. Thank you, Kristy read more
