I would normally not be happy about my regular salon/stylist not being able to get me in for a…read moretrim, however, I am very happy to have found Lather! The location in Kirkwood isn't convenient for me but the salon itself is beautiful! It isn't a large noisy & crowded salon. Although I'm sure it can be. I felt so relaxed the second I walked in the door. I walked in without an appointment. The ladies were nice & only a short wait. Dawn (the owner) trimmed my hair & listened to my hair complaints. She did a fantastic job at trimming my hair but also giving me advice to help me in growing my hair. I know most women are particular about who they let loose on their hair. As was I, I'm glad I didn't let that stop me from trying something new. If you're in need of a salon, no matter your location, visit Lather.

Being new to St. Louis and having left a great longtime hair stylist in California, I was very…read morehappy to find Amy at Trim. She was friendly, welcoming, and open to ideas. I have medium/long thick hair and she did a great job adding some movement and easy to style layers to my cut. Pretty reasonable pricing at $45/haircut. Amy probably noticed that I had pretty much zero hair product in my hair when I came in so she didn't pile on styling goop during the blowout which I appreciated. Amy also offers people who refer a new client a complimentary hair product--smart word of mouth strategy. The salon is friendly and low key and parking is easy in Kirkwood.

My main concern was having some rookie make me look like more of a doofus than I already am because they didn't possess the skills to make me look like I could pull of an undercut. Anyways, I took the plunge and walked over and asked if there was someone who could give me my fresh new "do" and I was directed to Chris Cross. Not only did he do an awesome job but he basically coached me on how to style my hair so I could actually duplicate what he did on my own. The haircut itself cost $25 which I think is a completely reasonable price for what I'm getting. And I will happily pay it again knowing the service I get when I go there. He shampooed, washed and cut my hair. Plus, he used some cement product. All in all it probably takes at least 30 minutes. I also think $25 is the minimum for a men's hair cut. Pros: - Their business cards have their cell phone numbers on them. - They have a website, which contains their bios. Initially, a major selling point for me. - Extremely nice. - Been able to make appointments a few days out (at least with Chris). Cons: - None so far

From the first time I met Jean it was like she could read my mind and gave me exactly what I wanted. Each time I go back I love my hair more and more!

I've really come to trust Jean and actually look forward to my appointments now. She also is such a fun and hilarious person so our appointments are always a great time!

I genuinely do not like leaving bad reviews, especially because I've been coming here for almost…read moretwo years, but today was quite literally my final straw. I've gone here consistently since moving to St. Louis for haircuts, root touch-ups, color, all of it. I also truly do not care who I'm assigned to. I'm not one of those clients who needs one specific stylist every single time. I just expect basic communication, decent service, and for my appointment to actually make sense when I arrive. Coordination! Unfortunately, the vibe here has always felt off The front desk is rarely welcoming. Half the time, no one greets you, acknowledges you, or makes you feel like they are happy you're there. The energy can feel very cliquey, dismissive, and honestly kind of performative. It gives "we're all a family here," but somehow the client is not included in the family. I've overlooked a lot because I liked the actual hair services. I've waited 30 minutes past my appointment time before. I've had appointments moved around. One time, I was sent to the Webster Groves location, got there, and was then told I actually needed to go to Des Peres because they could not take me. Like...okay gas?? But today was what officially did it for me. I booked a root touch-up before a photo shoot tomorrow and a trip next week. I sent pictures and a description of what I wanted directly to the stylist beforehand. I've also had this exact type of service done through this salon multiple times, usually for around $250, so this was not some random mystery appointment. I arrived and waited around 30 minutes to be assisted, only to then be told it would cost over $400. And to be very clear, I am not asking anyone to lower their prices, undervalue their work, or change their hourly rate for me. Charge whatever you charge. That is fully your business. My issue is: why was none of this communicated nor coordinated before I showed up? You had my appointment details. You had the pictures. You had my description. You had my client history from the past two years. If the service was now going to cost almost twice what I normally paid, or if I had supposedly booked the wrong category, somebody should have figured that out before I arrived, waited 30 minutes, and left with absolutely nothing done. Even the stylist seemed surprised by how I had apparently been charged or categorized during previous appointments, which honestly just made the whole situation feel even more disorganized. That is an internal coordination issue, not something that should suddenly become the client's emergency while they are sitting in the chair So now I have a photo shoot tomorrow, a trip next week, and no hair did or done because this salon could not communicate beforehand. After nearly two years of being a loyal client, I'm done overlooking the rude front desk energy, the scheduling confusion, the long waits, and the constant lack of coordination. The actual talent may be there, but the overall experience is not. I will not be coming back. Respectfully, the vibes are not worth $400+.

I did not want to leave this review, but after paying $700 and leaving with severely damaged hair,…read moreI feel obligated to warn others about my experience. I went to this salon because a stylist I had been seeing for over a year moved here. She had been maintaining my cherry cola color for about a year, and when she moved to The Boulevard, I told her I wanted to start the process of going back to my natural level 6 brown. I understood that removing red is a process and specifically told her I was completely fine doing it over multiple appointments. I also asked if we could keep the first appointment within a certain timeframe because I had dinner plans, and she agreed. My appointment was scheduled for noon. When I arrived, I sat alone for 30 minutes without being greeted, consulted, or acknowledged by anyone before my stylist finally came over. The appointment ultimately lasted 7 hours, and I had bleach on my hair for approximately 3 hours. When I left, my hair was severely damaged. In fact, my stylist knew it didn't look right because as I was leaving, she told me to "wear a ponytail to dinner." That is not something you say to a client who just spent hundreds of dollars and received a successful service. I have since shown photos from that appointment to other licensed cosmetologists, and multiple have told me the damage was evident as soon as the foils came out. I have always taken excellent care of my hair, use professional products, and have never experienced damage like this. My hair is now rough, difficult to manage, and completely different from how it felt before. I can't run my fingers through it, my natural texture is gone, and it is genuinely unrecognizable to me. I was so upset that I spent the entire weekend crying and had to miss work on Monday. When I called the salon Monday morning, I was told the owner would contact me. I never received a call. When I called back two hours later, the owner suddenly answered. She offered a free treatment if I came in immediately, but the first thing she said to me in person was, "It's not that bad." After spending two days devastated over the condition of my hair, that was incredibly dismissive and upsetting to hear. The owner then told me that the original stylist would perform my next treatment and that I could pay for a new color service. I explained that after what happened, I believed I deserved both a refund and a corrective color service. The stylist refused a refund, and offered the color service for free. I agreed to this, and then stylist put red back on my hair, leaving me looking almost exactly as I did before I started this process, except now my hair is badly damaged and I am out $700. I came to this salon because I trusted my stylist and trusted the salon to guide me through this process responsibly. Instead, I have walked out feeling worse every single time. The most disappointing part is that the owner never apologized, never took accountability, and never made a meaningful attempt to make this right. I wish I had never come here. I am now left paying for the damage done to my hair, and multiple people who have seen the condition of it have told me I should pursue legal action because of how severe the damage is.

What would I do while she was getting her hair done? Would I even enjoy myself listening to the conversations around me? Well, when we got there, it was in the middle of a strip mall near a grocery store and some other things. I'm not one for situational aesthetics, but it honestly reminded me of a Great Clips or something like that. Not that there is anything wrong with places like that, I've gotten great hair cuts from plenty of places like them. Anyway, I was amazed at how the salon was set up. We were immediately greeted and while the stylist was working on someone at the time, we were reassured that it wouldn't be long. Since it was so close to the holidays, it didn't seem that there were a lot of people there getting their hair done. Probably a lot better than having a full house when people probably wanted to get to holiday parties with their family and friends. What was super nice was that Katie even had time to do my hair so I walked out of the salon feeling super beautiful all over again. A couple weeks later and I'm still feeling just as pretty as when I got it done. People are still complimenting me on my hair color and I couldn't thank them enough. I just wish that I had someone closer who could do my hair like this whenever I need it. Back to the drawing board, I guess.
