One word: Rudina! She is fantastic! Apart from having a fab personality, she is super talented. She has done highlights as well as recently did a haircut for me, and each time, it's been exactly what I wanted. The receptionists are always nice, and not your typical snooty salon receptionists either. Located in downtown Rochester, you can also find your way to other spots after or before your haircut e.g. Dessert Oasis, The Meeting House, etc. To book, you can contact them on Yelp and someone will always respond (for those who hate calling). Just ask for Rudina, and let her wow you! :) read more

I went to see Sonya after getting a facial from her at The Shvitz. While the three women took a couple minutes to acknowledge me (two were training the new girl) and the chairs in the waiting area were lightly stained, Sonya was lovely. Upstairs, in the spa area, things were much quieter and cleaner than in the downstairs salon portion. I would definitely recommend Sonya for any facial or waxing needs you might have. read more

Hannah is amazing, she listens to what you want and understands that you know how your hair works and what works best for it. She takes her time to be sure you are 100% satisfied with your hair before you leave the salon. I wear my hair short and am always concerned if a person can cut it correctly. I have no worries with Hannah, she has given me the best haircuts I have had in years. read more

Kimi K has been my preferred salon since moving back home from Chicago 8 years ago. The services and staff rival anything I experienced in the city. For highlights, cut, and styling for blonde hair, there is no one better than Jeni Jubb! Jeni's handiwork grows out nicely and keeps me looking fresh and natural until my next appointment. The staff is friendly and courteous, and the salon is always clean and inviting. Book your appointments in advance! These experts are busy for a reason. read more

I get my hair done here and I love it. Recently I found Sonya! She's the best aesthetician I've been to. My face has always struggled with terrible breakouts and cystic acne and Sonya has the best facials to help and she gives you amazing after care products to prevent future breakouts!! Highly recommend! read more

I have to say, this was the best haircut experience I've ever had--not only that, but the atmosphere was so affable- everyone was so charming and FUN....it made my day....thank u CHRISTINE and CHRISTINE!!! Don Puglisi read more

I had a massage and facial with Asha today! It was extremely relaxing and she paid attention to specific problems I was having with my knee and neck. Overall a great experience, what a wonderful spa. read more

I rarely get my nails done because it takes so long. Last week I got a manicure and pedicure because I was a given a gift card. Now I'm hooked. It was a great experience and my hands and feet look great. I'll actually do this again. read more

Visited Maria Lisa to get my hair thinned and a small trim. Maria always takes care of her clients so well. I always leave with a smile on my face and loving my hair even more than when I walked in! read more

I have been going to Kimi K for years now- ever since they were at their previous location. Rudina is an incredible stylist. She has been cutting my hair for years, and having someone else cut it just feels wrong. She always asks what I want, and she ever so slightly modifies it and makes it work for my face shape. I have never come home disappointed after a haircut. As far as their other services go.... I have gotten my nails done here once or twice; For a basic manicure it was good, just a nice solid color- nothing mind blowing. I have not gotten my makeup done here, as I always seem to forget that it's a service that they offer, but I think that's something I will try next time when I'm back in town. I have gotten a blow-out for a wedding reception (by Rudina, of course, as she knows my hair) and it looked fantastic. I got many compliments, and it lasted all night after lots of sweaty dancing. I have not gotten my hair colored/ highlighted/ low-lighted/ etc. I have seen many women and men get their hair colored here and it always looks great, though I have never experienced it first-hand. Kimi K is an incredible professional salon where you will feel comfortable and you won't be breaking the bank. I highly recommend Kimi K (and stylist Rudina) to anyone looking for a new salon/ stylist. read more

I've been going to stylist Susan Smith for almost two years and I've never been disappointed. She listens to my concerns and gives honest feedback. Her coloring skills are amazing! I get so many compliments on my hairstyle and color. If you've been blessed like me with fine hair, Susan is your girl! The salon is warm, stall is friendly and always willing to accommodate. Love it! read more

I saw Christina Hoppe and she was great! I love that her scissors had just been sharpened, and she's really good at doing highlights for people who wear their hair up a lot. Most importantly, she worked hard to make sure that I was happy with my hair, and her personality is very sweet and positive! read more

I recently visited the salon and was greeted by a very nice young lady AnnaDora. So glad I finally found a new stylist and just loving my new cut!!! read more

I'm giving the salon 4 stars and this is why. I have been going to Kimi k for 5 years since we moved to Rochester. Rudina, my stylist deserves 5 stars. My hair always looks stylish and healthy. I get so many compliments on the cut and color. I get highlights and color and it looks multi dimensional. I cannot say enough about how happy I am with Rudina. The downside of this place has to do with their tacky tipping policy. Up until 5 months ago, you could add your tip onto your credit card purchase and the salon would then pay the stylist. Now they want you to use some app called tippy and pay that way or bring cash. It just is incredibly inconvenient and just makes this high end salon look tacky. read more

Love love love. Salon is very nice and everyone is smiling, laughing and friendly. You will feel welcome and receive a great cut, highlight and style from my stylist Kierstin. I showed her the color and style I wanted and she worked magic. I have not been so happy with my cut and color in years! I am doing the hair flip:) Highly recommend to anyone wanting to try a new salon. read more

I just love this salon. Super friendly staff and reception. I see Celeste for my nails and she does a great job. Her attention to detail is what I like most. It's important to me that a salon is clean and this place is. I like that all of her instruments are sanitized and sterilized. read more

Kimi K Salon & Spa - this was work done by Celeste - Hair Salons Near Me - Rochester, Michigan

See all

I have been coming here since I was a kid and this is my favorite salon. The salon is very posh and has a relaxing environment. The people are also really friendly. My stylist is Rachel and she is wonderful. I never leave unsatisfied and my hair always leaves looking great. My favorite part is getting my hair washed since its so relaxing. read more

I give Kimi K in downtown Rochester 5 stars for their excellent service, superior results, decent prices, and downtown location. Kimberly C. is hands-down THE BEST nail technician you could ever hope to find. On my last pedicure (May 2018), the polish lasted for FIVE WEEKS without a single chip! Sue is an amazing hair stylist who always gets every last detail perfect in my complicated, short haircut (lots of fringe and sculpted spikes) so I feel awesome when I leave there. Prices are great for a downtown location. $45 for a cut/style and $50 for spa-pedi. Very reasonable I think. read more

I followed Sonya from her previous job as my esthetician. She is consistently professional, friendly, knowledgeable and her being at Kimi K has been a wonderful experience. She has changed my skin for the better and she's always giving great recommendations. 10/10 would recommend her to anyone and everyone! read more

Everyone is so friendly and helpful especially the receptionist Dori! She was great in recommending the best stylist and services for me. My hair looks great! I love Kimi K Salon! read more

I love Kimi K Salon & Spa! Going to this salon is like visiting family. It doesn't matter who you're stylist is, everyone makes sure they say hello and checks in with you. Even though most of the the hairdressers are young and hip, they make sure they know all styles, even for someone older like myself. I highly recommend this salon to all age groups and ethnicities! Thank you Kimi K for making my visit enjoyable from walking in and being greeted by the front desk all the way through to the end. read more

Friendly staff and environment. Highly recommend Rudina for hair. She's the BEST for color, cut and highlights. She's intuitive as to what looks best with your hair type and lifestyle. Couldn't be more pleased with my hair in her care read more

Went there for my first in a very long time, manicure and pedicure. And first ever massage. Salon was clean and friendly, and although I can't recall the nail tech's name, she was friendly and did a great job. Callina made me feel very comfortable for first time massage. read more

by far the worst haircut I've ever had in my life. cried for an hour after and there's no fixing someone else can do to make it better. also was given very bad layers when I never asked for layers. looks like a very bad haircut from 30 years ago. very disappointed, especially since I'm in a wedding in a few days and I've never felt uglier. read more

The customer service at this salon is above and beyond. They really make sure that you are satisfied with your haircut. I've been going for many years and the level 3 stylists are just absolutely amazing. I would recommend a level 3 stylist based on my particular experience as there can be a big difference in quality. Overall a wonderful salon with a great owner. read more

Just had the best facial EVER! I've had one before and the experience left me feeling like facials weren't all that great. I was so pleasantly surprised and wrong when I had today's facial. Christina was amazing and I would highly recommend her and this salon for services. The atmosphere of the salon was also very nice, and the front desk staff were kind and helpful, despite answering many phone calls and tending to other business. read more

My stylist Callina is fabulous. She can work wonders on all hair types, any ethnicity. As an Afro-American client, she rejuvenated my hair while I was going thru "relaxer" withdrawal. She knows which products to use to revive and heal your hair and is a knowledgeable colorist. In addition, Callina is the sweetest person. I've been her client for over six years, so glad to have found her. The salon staff are great as well, always professional. A. read more

Loooove this place! The girls are amazing here!!! Everytime I leave my hair looks awesome! Highly reccomend

Sonya did such a amazing job! My Skin was breaking out so bad because of wearing a mask every day and it became clear and soft! She is very Educated and knows exactly what to recommend to maintain your skin! I would recommend 12/10 to see her for all your skin concerns! read more

We were in town for a wedding. I walked in on Friday looking for an appointment Saturday the next morning. I was receive with such warmth and courtesy. They worked so hard to get me an appointment. They worked so hard to find an appointment time I would be happy with. Even getting someone to come in early. Saturday morning was a joy. Rudina was so helpful. From finding the right products to explaining each step. I left feeling glamorous and beautiful. I only wish I lived in town to be able to return. Can't say enough positive things about such a wonderful salon. Thanks so much. Don't hesitate to make an appointment. read more

I went there yesterday and the hair cut was very bad. No layers, no styles. She didn't let me see the back. When the hair cut was first finished, I wasn't impressed already, when I got home, saw the back, I totally regret going there. My hair looked just like there are so many uneven tufts of hairs! Ahhhhhh!!! Very ugly, no smooth lines and no beauty. read more

I loved the way the salon looked. And everyone was super nice and I got acrylic nails done by robin she was so nice and kind. I think 55 is a decent price for nails. They were exactly what I wanted and the way I wanted too. read more

Their hair stylists do not know how to work on Asian hair, even tho the owner is Asian herself! I went in to get my hair dyed in one tone, with 3-4 inches of dark roots. Before the process, the hair stylist did not tell me that it would be impossible to dye my hair all in one tone, which is false because I've had this done to me numerous times with my hair stylist down in Orlando. They used loreal, INOA on my hair, which I paid $80 for. Afterwards, my roots only came out half dyed while the rest of my hair took in the new color. I expressed my dissatisfaction immediately, and the hair stylist insisted that it was only the lighting that casted the shadow... Really?! They think they can fool their customer?! I made another appt two days later to have the stylist fix my hair. I wanted her to use the same color and apply it to the sections that were still dark. She told me that only solution is to highlight my hair or bleach it. I told her absolutely NOT! The owner came and started telling me the same thing. The stylist said she will not dye my hair again because the coloring is so expensive and its a waste of her time!! The owner told me the it was my fault for waiting this long to get my roots dyed!! I was completely shocked how irresponsible and obnoxious they were to me, the customer!! The owner insisted to color my hair to darker color, because hair would take dark color easier. But that's not what I wanted. They know they messed up but would not admit to it, in addition to blaming it on the customer!! At the end, the owner and stylist had me sign a silly hand-written waiver (so unprofessional) claiming that they will do as I asked and if the results are not favorable, they are not responsible. Fine, I signed it... So the stylist used the same color and applied it to the dark sections, as I suggested. And guess what, the results were a lot better. It's not perfect, but at least my hair is not obvious being in two-tone anymore. This salon is great when all things go well with the customer, but when issues occur, they won't step up to it to fix the problem. I'm surprised even the owner was like this! I will NEVER go to this salon again, and would strongly encourage all my Korean and Asian friends to stay away!! They are in a service industry and completely forgot what they do is a living testimony and model of their brand and people. Did the stylist even think that if she was reluctant to fix my hair, my bad hair coloring would speak for the salon for months to come??!! The customer paid GOOD money for their service, and in return, they don't fess up to their mistakes. POOR CUSTOMERS SERVICE! read more

Amazing cut and color with Mina everytime. I always leave feeling beautiful and blessed. Love Kimi and her daughters- beautiful family business! read more

Kimi K is a gem in downtown Rochester! I've been coming here for two years now. I switched salons after the staff knocked it out of the park for my wedding. Seriously THE BEST experience. The salon is clean and beautiful. The staff is efficient, professional and kind. The front desk is knowledgeable, and the manager is wonderful. Strongly recommend: 1. Lia for Baylage treatment and cut 2. Christina for brows and makeup 3. And be sure to DRINK THEIR TEA. So tasty and I swear it relaxes you even more while you're in the chair! read more

Kimi K Salon is an extremely professional, but warm and inviting environment. The salon is very clean, beautifully decorated and in a great location in Downtown Rochester. If you are coming for a massage or facial, the best part is it the spa is located upstairs. You will hear no blow dryers or noise just peaceful quiet music. This makes the experience so relaxing- it feels like a getaway! The staff is always friendly when you call for an appointment. Waiting is minimal and they do their best to accommodate your schedule. Christina is the manager and really knows how to run a business. She goes out of her way to make sure your experience is nothing short of the best. Not to mention she does great eyebrows, facials and hair!! What I love the most as a client is I feel like she is honest about products and what works for me . I have had many services here and it always feels so personal. I feel this is what the salon experience SHOULD be. Christina is conscientious and really goes the extra mile. Worth every penny!! read more

Christina does a fantastic job for brow waxes. She is very professional and friendly.
