I am extremely unhappy with both my haircut and the way my concerns have been handled afterward. I…read morewas harassed!!! When I called the salon to express my concerns.I was specifically complaining about a stylist named Donna. According to her salon bio, she recently moved from Chicago. Less than 24 hours after making that complaint, I received a text message from an unknown Chicago-area phone number calling me names. The timing was concerning enough that I felt it should be reported to the salon. I did not feel that concern was taken seriously. I was told that someone would contact me regarding my complaint, but I was left waiting without any meaningful response. At this point, I was seeking a refund because I am deeply dissatisfied with the haircut itself, upset by the way my concerns have been handled, and troubled by the harassing message I received after reporting my experience. When my calls were not being returned, I called again for a third time and at that time was told that Donna is the owner of the business and would never do such a thing. My initial complaint was regarding my haircut. I have fine hair, and throughout my appointment the stylist described what she was doing as adding "movement" to my hair. At no point did I understand that significant debulking was being done. That is not something I would have requested. The result is that my hair feels much thinner than before, and I have not been able to find a way to style it that I feel good about. Another concern is that my hair was not blow-dried at the end of the service. It wasn't until I went home, washed it myself, and blow-dried it that I was able to fully see the haircut and notice the issues I have with it. Looking at it styled properly only made me more upset with the final result. Now this situation is much larger and I am still hoping for a full refund for the service.

My first experience at Ananda with Nica was one of the best salon experiences I've had!!!…read more Nica is so talented and I highly recommend her for so many reasons. Here are few: - her hair artistry is superb. I allowed her to pick the colors and design for my hair & she nailed it. - she cares about your hair and the long term effects. She asked me questions about my hair routines in order for us to pick the best cut/color combination to keep my hair healthy. - she's genuine, authentic and super sweet I would definitely recommend Ananda Hair Studio & more specifically, Nica. Especially if you're into vivid colors. I LOVE my hair makeover!

Unfortunately they have changed the prices so my go to gal is now over $120 for a simple cut…read more Apparently they are justifying this by saying gratuity is already taken care of. I'm all for tipping but $50 more of my hard earned money is a total scam. I went to a different stylist this last time, she spent less than an hour, didn't do anything extra and it cost $70. Apparently I still had to pay for the whole hour. I just called because my hair is not laying the way it should and naturally does. The cut is just not good. I am now going back in to have it fixed. Not a good experience, they just lost a very loyal client.

Leah did a great job! Literally the best haircut I have ever had! Leah really listened to me and…read moremade sure that I got what I wanted and even surpassed what I hoped for. I have long hair and other stylists I have gone to would only give me layers at the bottom, but not Leah! She took the time to listen and understand what I wanted and even offered advice and options for different facial framing and bangs that were suited to my face and type of hair. Then she worked her magic and I couldn't be more pleased! As soon as we were done and I saw what she did, I had to ask her to send me pictures so that I could show my mom who has been sick of hearing me cry and complain after every haircut, but not this one! She was so impressed that now she wants to get her haircut by Leah, as well! Also, the salon itself is quite nice. Good atmosphere; clean; everyone was wearing masks and practicing Covid-safety. Highly recommend this place and, especially, this stylist.

I was very baffled today upon arriving to the salon as a "walk in". The stylist asked if she could…read morehelp me and I said yes, I would like to get a haircut and she said do you have an appointment? I said no, your site on Yelp says "walk ins are welcome" and she said no, that's not true, I'm not sure which site you looked at but that's not correct. I was turned away and told you use the website to book an appointment. At that moment, I no longer felt welcomed. I would highly suggest the owner review what they have on the Yelp page because this is a site that many individuals use when searching for services. For what I thought would be a great experience turned out to be a bad one.

I went in and while their signage spoke of masking up, I was pleased to see everyone was pretty relaxed on the issue. Anyway, I was looking for someone who knew how to trim longer hair for ease of care without shortening. I regret not recalling my cutters name (I'm negligent here always) but she had the chair nearest the front window and was easy to talk to and understood my goal for the visit. I'll totally be back as soon as my ends split enough. Thank you all.
