Andrea S.

I had a wonderful experience yesterday at the salon. Everyone was friendly and kind. Andrew Carlin, my stylist was beyond fabulous. His attention to detail and gentleness really made the experience very enjoyable. But it was the way my hair looked when I left that has me writing this review. I am blown away with how my hair came out. I haven't colored my hair in 21 years. I colored and got a cut. Andrew was extremely knowledgeable about the product and the technique. He is at the Premier of his craft. I have received a dozen compliments today. I feel so good. If you are looking for a stylist who is NICE, KIND, fresh, who is a true artist and isn't afraid to be bold go see Andrew Carlin. And try out London Alchemist.

It doesn't get any better than a master stylist (Desiree) who has incredible technique with color tint/highlights paired with healthy hair products that include lipids, gloss, all the things that produce excellent results that last.

I had a balayage $250, cut $50, treatment $75. HOW DID I PAY $700??????

Do not go here it is extremely OVER PRICED!! I came here to get my hair done and I guess because I was young they decided to take advantage and up the price. I left paying about $700 and the end result is not at all what I asked for, plus the stylist are FAKE and will say anything to get you to pay more and for you to agree with what they have done to your hair. The only reason for a one star is because the receptionist and the accommodations were okay. DO NOT PAY FOR THEIR SERVICE, EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE AND HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE.

I have been going to Adriana Sardinas from the moment she became a stylists. I have to say, she is truly gifted with her shears. I have very thick complicated straight hair, and I'm very particular about my haircuts. She has been doing some great hairstyles on other women, so I decided to get some hi-lites on the crown of my head, and balyage on the lower of my hair. Adriana was excited, because I'm a natural redhead, and she got right to work on her colors and toners. Adriana saw my vision, and went above and beyond my expectations. I can honestly say, I only trust her with my hair. I live in Austin, TX and she is definitely worth the drive. My hair is nothing to play with, and she is truly a Master at her craft. Go See Adriana Sardinas, you will be so glad you did.

Finally I found someone who is able to get my hair done the way I like it, Ross did great job at a reasonable price!

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY OR YOUR TIME HERE. EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE FOR NO REASON!! Well... lemme just say that don't let the glam of this place fool you because trust me. I got played. I went in reserving a spot with a certain hairstylist we talked, her and another stylist about what I wanted. A layered short shoulder length cut and a balayage. She walked off talking with the other stylist coming back to say it would be around $450. Tbh she didn't sound too sure herself and the things they were pricing me for were not at all in the pamphlet they showed me (in photo). I showed pictures and examples of what I wanted and... the end result, was nothing at all what I wanted. I had gotten a bob with thick highlights and it all rounded out to about $700. The stylist I reserved even left early and had someone else style my hair for me. I wanted to cry at the sight of my hair that I don't even have one photo as proof. And the experience at this salon is the absolute worst. Completely professional to your face but they don't have the slightest clue what they are doing. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR DO NOT GO HERE.

Shelby is an artist. She really listens what I wanted for my cut and color. I was a very happy client.

Shelby corrected my hot roots beautifully and a keratin treatment changed the life of my hair instantly.

I came here with my sister, who has been a loyal customer for over two years, and unfortunately, our most recent visit left a bad impression due to the unprofessional behavior of one of your stylists. As small business owners ourselves, we know how important it is to treat customers with respect--especially loyal ones. This experience did not reflect that standard. To the owners and management: it is important to ensure your staff are properly trained in both communication and customer service. Clear language skills and professionalism are essential in this industry. Also, not every customer is looking for discounts or free services--we are simply looking for quality work and respectful treatment. During this visit, my sister's beautiful hair was shaved in the back with a razor to correct a cut that had been done too short. Using a razor in that way on a woman's hair is highly unprofessional and unacceptable. We understand that mistakes happen. We are all human, and sometimes language barriers or misunderstandings occur. However, what matters most is how those situations are handled--with kindness, accountability, and respect. This is a business that charges premium prices, and with that comes the responsibility to train and guide staff on how to properly interact with customers. We are not asking for refunds or free services. What we expect is acknowledgment, empathy, and clear communication about next steps--instead of being immediately asked to remove a negative review in exchange for a free fix. We hope management takes this feedback seriously and uses it to improve the customer experience moving forward.

I came here originally for a haircut. My hair was super uneven after going to a chain haircut place…read more My stylists name in as Kirsten, and she knew exactly what to do without hesitation. I L O V E D my new hair. I went back a second time to get my hair colored, and my hair was 3 different colors (natural roots, fed into red, fed into blonde). And I want to go platinum blonde. It's not my first rodeo, so I knew it was going to take a few sessions (3-4). However, Alanna started the process, analyzed my hair after the first stripping, and she said confidently "I can lighten it more" and asked for permission. Of course I trusted her as I've been going to her since 2017. Lo and behold! She did it! She got my hair from this trio-mess to a beautiful blonde. And she told me "maybe 1-2 more sessions to get to platinum". I'm so excited to go back and I loved that she took her time, she was patient, and it's always great catching up with her!!

It is about two inches shorter than we discussed, the stylist even admitted it was cut too short. As for framing around my face, we picked a piece of hair and I said not to go shorter than that, it was cut much shorter. I asked for long layers, which I have had for years, but the stylist and I clearly had very different definitions of what that means. The layers are very short, some at my eye level. She finished and I literally cried and said I hate it. She tried to fix the layers by texturizing them and they look a little better. Emphasis on a little. My haircut still looks incredibly dated and nothing like the picture I showed her. It still made me cry every time I caught my reflection in a mirror when I got home. The only redemption is that it somehow all fits in a ponytail. I had long, thick hair so it took over two hours to wash, cut, and dry. Maybe it was too hard for her to work with. I saw she was cutting way more than I expected, but I didn't say anything because she was the professional and I was trusting her. In hindsight, I should have said something. I know it'll grow out, but I got my hair cut because we have a family wedding next weekend and unfortunately it won't grow out that fast. I absolutely hate it and don't know how it could be fixed at this point. What are they going to do, cut it more? I've already lost most of my once thick hair. Giving two stars instead of one because the stylist was a sweet girl and didn't charge me full price. But I will never be returning.

Such a wonderful experience here!…read more I no longer live in Texas but I come home for holidays etc. to be with my family who still does. For my high school reunion last month, I needed to make sure my hair looked amazing since the water at my parent's house is disgusting compared to NYC's. I asked my cousin if she knew any salons that do a great blowout and she said she had heard of J L'Art Organic Salon from her friends! Booking on their platform did not work for me so I called to book my appointment instead. I did a 10am on a Saturday, thinking ok I'll be done within an hour... *TWO. HOURS. LATER.* (haha) Honestly probably one of the longest blowouts I've ever had but it was definitely worth it and I wasn't in a rush. The chairs they have you lie down on for your wash are sooooo comfortable. My stylist Chasity gave me THREE deep shampoos and the last one I think I fell asleep as she massaged my scalp for the longest time. Anyone who knows me knows that I am a total sucker for a hair and scalp massage. For my conditioner she massaged my scalp AGAIN and then wrapped my head in a hot towel so it was a steam mask for 5-10 minutes. Like wow. The blowout itself was done with such precision. Using the Dyson hair dryer, my hair was gathered into small sections and every flyaway was tamed. I have a lot of hair and it's pretty long so I really appreciate her commitment to the process. My hair afterwards was sooooo soft, shiny, and silky. Chasity did an amazing job! Also, they're very reasonably priced. My blowout was $50... my salon in NYC could NEVER. Such a luxurious service for such a great price! If I ever need a blowout again while visiting my hometown, I will be definitely booking an appointment here.
