Salon Giovanni - 1 month after cut - Hair Salons Near Me - Plainfield, Illinois

See all

I have never met a person so full of himself. Meet Giovanni... In his mind he is the Maestro of hair. LOL!! He doesn't greet you and acts like hes doing you a favor. His haircut was just average but after he was finished, he said.."You will never find a stylist as good as me" Really? LOL!! He also tried to charge me twice for coloring my hair piece after he did it wrong the first time. (Money-grubber) What's next is the topper though. Can you imagine? I was a new client, and he didn't know me at all but felt he needed to share that he has these house rentals on the side and only rents to older white people. (You see, he said his listing agent has a way of working around IT) Wow! I think he thought that because I'm white and old that I would be ok with hearing this. read more

First time at the salon. I am a licensed stylist, not working and very fussy. I had a stylist for 25 years here but moved to Florida. She has since retired. Saw Giovanni on Facebook and decided to give him a call. Got Martin as my stylist, and a great haircut. I am moving back to Illinois and will be going back to Martin. Also the prices were very reasonable. read more

I never leave reviews but I absolutely have to. If you are a blonde and want platinum white hair. DO NOT COME HERE! When I first called and spoke with the receptionist, she was very friendly and I told her about my hair and made it a point if they have stylists that can do white blondes. She said yes and reassured me because as we all know not everyone can do white blonde hair properly . I barely had any root growth so it wasn't a hard touch up. Anyway when I get there I was late because there's no big sign, my gps was taking me in circles and I'm not familiar with area. I finally found it lol. The stylist greeted me and seemed confused when I sat down. Apparently the receptionist booked me as a partial highlight when I was told I was being booked for a root retouch, toner, and blow out. So the stylist was not in the best mood but that is not my fault what the receptionist did. It says on the website they strive to give a luxury experience, well I've been to luxury salons and it's not luxury by any means. I should've known when the receptionist told me the prices I would not be satisfied with my hair ‍ She had another stylist blow dry me and didn't even ask how I like my hair parted so I told her. She could tell I wasn't happy with my hair. I've been getting white blonde for yearrrrsss. I'm new to area so was trying to find a new salon that could do blonde hair and I think maybe places should be honest because there's a difference between white and yellow and white and gray. I walked out with YELLOW ROOTS and dark gray hair. Literally darker hair than I came in with. My roots were dirty blonde and barely any growth to where it would be difficult by any means. Whatever toner the stylist put in my hair will not fade at all. And whatever they used on roots was damaging. Even the vibe by the stylist made it a bad experience. I didn't call and complain because it was $90 plus I did tip $10 only because that's a low tip for me. I was planning to tip $100 but to know what I wanted and to tell me how white it was when washing then when it was blow dried to look how it did, I mean I could tell when it was wet my roots were yellow and hair dark gray JUST WOW! Only gave a 2 star because owner seemed friendly however didn't greet me. Maybe because I was dressed down and he was judging. Wrong person to judge. I'm a customer that tips well, brings clients and buys products from salon. I was very mislead by receptionist, stylist, and reviews. read more

Giovanni has been my stylist for close to 15 years. 15. YEARS! Think about that...Usually we girls switch stylists every 3-5 years because they get stale. Giovanni never gets stale. He is always on the cutting edge of what is new, current and cutting techniques that make me always look great. I consistently have people stop me on the street and ask where I get my hair cut. Not only is the initial cut great, but it grows out very well as well. He has a great group if stylists as well. Nadine has cut my hair when Gio is not available and she was awesome as well. Highly recommend! read more

I had the pleasure of meeting Marty today for the first time.. he gave me a Great H/C & touch up on my High lites. His Skill level exceeded my expectations. Before my appointment I was nervous... I admit that I'm very picky about my hair & it's a big deal for me to find someone new...( I am new to the area) but I have to say..I left his Salon with a Smile & feeling better than when I got there. Thank you Marty! & Everyone at Salon Giovanni for making my first time there a Great Experience! I would recommend Salon Giovanni to anyone looking for a Great Hair Cut & Color! read more

Giovanni is the best!!! He keeps up to date on haircuts and styles. He is great with coloring and everything. Highly recommend!!

I had a great experience at Salon Giovanni this past Friday, and I feel compelled to tell the world all about it. Thankfully for you, describing a positive hair cutting experience is not exactly a lengthy ordeal. Rejoice. A friend of mine comes here, and having been overdue for a trim, I decided to take the plunge. There is typically a period with haircuts where my opinion of them swings wildly from love to hate. I always love the way that I look coming out of the salon, and then am quickly disappointed when I realize that I have no idea how to make my fresh new cut look nearly as good as the person who styled it for me only days prior. I certainly encountered this sensation after visiting Salon Giovanni, but I can't pretend to be too upset. Giovanni provided a professional recommendation and I was more than satisfied with what he provided! It will no doubt tide me over for the time being. While my own dissatisfaction with my hairline is my problem to deal with, I genuinely felt like Giovanni was attentive to my needs and provided me with a style that was fitting of my circumstances. If I had any intention of proceeding with something other than a crew cut in the future, I would definitely come back to Salon Giovanni. read more

I absolutely love going to this salon; a hidden treasure in Plainfield to be sure! The owner, Giovanni and his father Marty treat you like family. I had the privilege of having my hair cut several times by an up and coming hair stylist, Tori. Not only did she give me the exact hair cut and style I requested, but the cut was so good that when I blow dry it myself, it looks as good as when she styled it! That is a first for me and since I am in my 60's, I believe that speaks volumes! I highly recommend Tori at Salon Giovanni! read more

Easily one of the best salon experiences I've ever had. I was running late as usual, but that didn't seem to bother anyone. I was greeted by Giovanni immediately and he was just awesome! Amazing artist for one, and quite informative! I have a long but thin and fine hair type(1a/1b), and he was able to tell me why certain techniques or products prove difficult for my home styling. He completely updated someone who would only do their own hair or only trust close friends. I'm less afraid to trust someone else with my hair. I'm happy to have found someone I can go to! Music playlist was completely in line with my tastes, which put me at ease. The decor is super clean and has Chic retro touches. Storefront is also easier to get to than Google had me think! read more

Marty is absolutely the best!! When it comes to hair he is a true artist. The salon is lovely and the entire staff is very accommodating and friendly. I would recommend Salon Giovanni to any one for color, cut or make-up. read more

Giovanni the reason I get compliments on my hair is the cut you give and your magical styling ! You make my hair look the best! You are so gifted. Ty ty ty ty!! Amy R. read more

I was surprised that most of the patrons and two workers were not wearing a mask. This is a very small shop therefore very important that this is done. I was fortunate that Nadine who cut my hair was wearing a mask and did an amazing job. While I understand it is not always convenient to wear a mask while getting your haircut it is something that is mandatory. Again Nadine did a wonderful job this review reflects the fact that this shop thinks it is ok to allow their patrons and workers to not wear masks. read more

I have always been the type of person to skip around from salon to salon, but I think I've found my home! I love Salon Giovanni and have been especially impressed with Nadine! She's cut my hair 3 times now and the finished product always exceeds my expectations. This is a family salon and it shows - all of the stylists and staff are exceptional and treat you like an old friend. Don't look any further for your new salon, this is it! read more

I have been going to Salon Giovanni for years and unless he closes or moves I will continue to be a loyal customer! Giovanni always makes my hair look and feel great and if for some reason hes not there when I need to get in Nadine does my hair and shes wonderful! The salon is clean and staff super friendly. Highly recommend. Cant wait for my appt this Tues bc this Covid thing has not done great things for my color!! Thanks Gio for getting me in asap. read more

Giovanni is the real deal. I am very apprehensive when it comes to whom I trust...and I feel 100% confident recommending Giovanni to anyone. It is a little bit far for me to travel for a haircut, but it is completely worth it. In Chicago, one would expect to pay twice the amount for the quality and artistry Giovanni offers. read more

Love, love, love. I have going to Salon Giovanni for 5+ years. I don't live in Illinois anymore but when I go back to visit family every 6 months or so I always get a cut and color with Giovanni or Marty. I won't let anyone else touch my hair. The best part is that not only does it look amazing but it grows out just as beautiful. Almost like a new cut. read more

For the first time every I am totally satisfied with my cut and color. The owner Giovanni himself did the work. He is a true designer!!! From making me feel very welcome and being very personable it was an all around awesome experience. I would recommend Giovanni to everyone out there. Keep up the good work Giovanni you made my day. read more

I was referred to salon Giovanni by an acquaintance of mine who always had the absolute cutest haircut. I've always been a little nervous to switch hairstylists. However, I have never been happier with a haircut than I was today when I got my haircut by Giovanni. Truly talented, listens to his clients needs and delivers 100%. Aside from his amazing talent he's very friendly and has a super cute salon nestled in the heart of downtown Plainfield. I would highly recommend & will absolutely be back for all my hair needs!! Salon Giovanni will not disappoint. read more

I need to say that when I walk into this salon I am treated like a guest not a customer. Having been a client for over 5 years, every time I sit in the chair I still get a consultation, am never rushed and feel like I am the number one priority while I am there. The staff has always been professional, friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend this salon to anyone. read more

I have followed Marti from Naperville to Plainfield which is an hour drive from my home now in St. Charles. Having had more than my share of bad haircuts I NEVER have had that problem with Marti. The salon is professional, up-to-date, friendly, uses hair-friendly products, competitively priced and a great place to go for looking and feeling great!! Babs read more
