I have been going to Salon Dacota for the past few years and have never left feeling anything short…read moreof amazing! I primarily see Valla--who is talented beyond words! She always listens to what I want and makes it happen in the most flattering way. I trust her to the point that if I am in a hair funk, I let her do what she wants. As usual, I walk out looking amazing. I have seen several other stylists for hair and make up for special occasions. They have all gone above and beyond and made me look amazing. I get so many compliments on their work. I also want to speak to the integrity of the salon. The customer service has always been stellar. Every stylist I have seen has listened to what I want. The thing that sets them apart is that they make suggestions that will only compliment my face shape and skin tone. They want the client to leave feeling beautiful on the inside as well as the outside. I have always been a "salon hopper". I would like a cut or color from one place but then the next time not be as happy. I have never had the consistant results and happiness until I found Salon Dacota. Now, I will not trust anyone else with my hair! Thanks for being so awesome!

So I absolutely love Salon Dacota. I have been going there for quite a long time. Love the people…read morethat work there. Great atmosphere. Great products for hair. If you are just going to get your hair cut, they will do an excellent job. My sister also gets her hair dyed here all the time and leaves perfectly satisfied. Unfortunately, what I would NOT recommend is coming to get a balayage treatment done. I have never dyed my hair in the past and decided to do something different for a change. Having coming from Manhattan, I was intent on trying something different for $200 as opposed to $500. I figured with balayag being a very trendy style right now, the stylist had to have a ton of practice. After all, It is pretty hard to mess up -- especially when I show you a picture before hand. When I came in, I was completely brunette. And when I left I did not have a balayage (where my brown hair would gradually turn into blonde) but on the contrary, I was completely blonde with dark roots. Really not at all like a balayage. In fairness, my hair is extremely long. And thick. The appointment itself took 3 hours. I feel that the error came from both lack of experience and also management of time. We ran 30 minutes over into the next client's appointment (poor thing) and I felt like it was a rushed job. She didn't end up actually styling my hair because she ran out of time. I suppose a little of this is on me because I should have ensured she REALLY LOOKED at the picture. I was like here's the picture. She very quickly relied "oh I totally got it! I can do that" This was several months back and the reason I write about it now is because I now am having to pay almost $500 for a color correcting and CORRECT balayage. Moral of the Story: salon dacota is great. Just not for balayage. If you are wanting to do that, splurge and go somewhere that specializes otherwise you may end up paying more. Hope this is helpful!

Well, the stylists are great. But no one is ever ever on time. Waiting is not a problem but the…read moreowner never ever acknowledges I'm waiting. Frankly it's incredibly rude. A simple courtesy acknowledgement that I am there waiting or a text that he's behind would be client friendly but he has never ever done that. I've waited up to one hour frequently with no apology. It's unreal. Maybe that's why he sold the business- either the games made him enough money to retire or the games hit his business hard enough he had to. FYI-the new owners price list is 1/2 of Salon Prive's!

I am blown away. Jewels was my hairstylist and I could have not asked for someone better. I had my…read morehair cut at Ulta in March and it was awful. The guy used too much mousse, it wasn't what I wanted, and it was over $100!!! I've been growing my hair out but by bit for the last three years and thought nervously that it was time for a chop. I had pictures ready and everything, but when I saw her, I just gave her an idea. Medium length, highlights my eyes and waves, with volume and minimal styling. GUYS. It was only $60 and considering the look of the place I thought it was gonna be so much higher. She washed my hair, cut it with absolute precision for a whole hour, made wonderful conversation, stayed past closing time to style and blow dry it, and she DESERVED that tip I gave her. Wow. Go here and ASK FOR JEWELS!!!

Why I haven't written a review yet for one of my happy places is beyond me! I've been coming to…read morestudio 703 in Chesterfield every since my girl J.C. moved there around ten years ago. Front desk staff is always attentive and ready to help you with whatever they can. Almost every single person I've ever recommended to J.C. (which is a lot at this point lol) has decided to stay with her and for good reason. She's the best at what she does; so much so that I've paid for the bride's hair and makeup in any wedding I'm in so we can use her/703 because I don't let anyone else touch my face or hair. I've uploaded a variety of photos to show her versatility and ability to bring your vision to life! Also, if calling to schedule makes you anxious like it does me, they have an app for that! You're easily able to plug in the services your wanting along with the staff member to see not only availability but also pricing, talk about transparency! So if you're looking for a new salon to call home, they'll leave the light on for ya!

I scheduled myself, daughter and daughter in law for a Head Spa Treatment for their birthdays (I had a gift card). The girls went into the Spa area and I received a private room!!! And we were all able to get them at the same time. If you have never received a Head Spa Treatment.... Please go. It is amazing how much tension we hold in our scalp and neck!!!! The massage was wonderful. The products that they use smell so good and make your hair feel so soft and the facial mask had my skin feeling so smooth!!!! The staff did an amazing job!!! I had to grab some wonderful products to take home!!! No pics as I was trying to be in the moment.

I came in because I had a gift card for the headspa and needed a haircut. I booked two weeks in…read moreadvance and was super excited about stl having a headspa as I have been to several and it's been my favorite experience ever. This is not at all like a traditional Asian Headspa. It's what should be a $25 add on for a service. It's not private or quiet/dark enough and you go in fully clothed so you will likely get your top wet. You lay in these massage chairs that are flat with giant legs bend when you get in and arms inside like you're in a massage chair. I'm 5'6" and these were made for 7' people. It was awkward and not comfortable. I'm used to a facial, not a cheapo sheet mask and not very good scrub, and my hair was washed and conditioned. My stylist did use the crown rinse for the final, but all other water was the loud/harsh/abrasive normal head sprayer from the sink. My Stylist Kayla was really nice, she seemed straight out of school and was telling me about her travel plans so it was nice to hear about her life and learn about her. My haircut was decent and I liked the product she used to blow dry my hair. No styling was done (like curling or straightening). I also had my eyebrows waxed (they took me back.into the Headspa room to do it, which was weird). I had to wait several minutes to check out as the owner was on the phone and using the pos terminal. That was honestly the most awkward time for both me and Kayla. The owner wasn't kind, and seemed like she wanted to be anywhere but in her salon. I bought one of the two products used on my hair post haircut and left. Read the yelp and Google reviews before you go, I wish my mom had before she got me the gift card. I will not return, and hope Kayla finds a salon that will treat her well, she was genuinely a sweet soul.
