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.

She listens to what I want, makes suggestions, and brings my ideas to life. I have gone from longer to shorter.

If you are looking for a professional and personable stylist, look no further!

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.

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.

I decided to try a new approach, figuring my hair hasn't worked in years, lets see what Jeans suggestions can do, 'what can I lose if it has looked awful for years', was my approach. So basically, I picked the perfect hair stylist to step out of my comfort zone in over 10 years, and my hair has never looked better!!! I am seriously in shock and so is my boyfriend and close friends. My hair has life, health and body all from a gloss color and hair cut. Who would have thought in a minimalist hair situation. Jean is that talented! Because I sat back and listened to Jean's recommendations, I now have hair I didn't think I could have back. I definitely won't be going anywhere else and am extremely lucky to find her within the fish bowl of stylist here in STL. Thank you Jean, Very pleased client

When I questioned that, they said that is the new pricing structure and I should've been contacted. Well, I wasn't told beforehand... But nonetheless, I can't imagine why they would think charging for a blow dry at that amount is acceptable!! It's outrageous. Even more confusing they said that if you get a haircut then a blow dry is included. Craziest reasoning I have ever heard of. So do they want people walking out of the salon into the winter weather with soaking wet hair after getting a color? I was also told that other salons in the area was charging this, and they were just trying to keep up. So I called several salons and they were equally as horrified to hear my story. I certainly would advise anybody going to Ginger Bay to get the charges upfront and see if there are any hidden fees before booking an appointment
