I started going to Shear Art North about eight months ago. I needed my haircut and I also wanted…read moresome vivid color highlights, three different shades of purple and also needed my gray toned up. (I'm 61). She understood the exact cut. I was looking for and also understood what I was looking for in color. (tone, the gray, then highlight and three different shades of purple.) She did an absolutely amazing job and I would highly recommend her to anyone! I found the whole salon very clean and the people they're very friendly and I've been back four times I believe since. Much to my display, Melanie had just left and so I was sat with a new stylist for just a haircut. She did a fairly good job and I'll definitely go back next month to have the color done. However, a day or so ago, I did receive a call from Melanie, who gave me her current information and I will go back to her if this new gal doesn't work out as well. However, I know if you go up higher than a level one, based on looking at their portfolios, they're definitely one of the best salons in all of Tampa and I've been here for 40 years and tried many of them! I highly recommend and hope you all had as great of an experience as I did

I am extremely disappointed and honestly heartbroken by my experience with Shear Art North. I had…read morebeen a client since April 2025 and genuinely enjoyed this salon, which makes it especially upsetting to say that I will no longer be returning--not by choice. I booked my an appointment for October on August 22nd without any issue. Then, without any prior warning or conversation, I received an email stating that I was no longer welcome at the salon due to "multiple instances of missed appointments, last-minute cancellations, and appointment changes." I was shocked. I have never missed an appointment, and according to my records and screenshots, I had only one last-minute cancellation with my stylist, Julia, in March. I mistakenly believed I had cancelled the appointment when I had not, immediately apologized, and was assured at the time that everything was okay. The remaining issues appear to involve miscommunication and scheduling problems. In December, there was a misunderstanding surrounding a service I had booked. Julia was extremely apologetic, offered me a complimentary haircut to make up for the situation, and assured me she would help find the soonest availability. At no point was I made aware that this was considered a serious issue or that there would be consequences for me as a client. Then, in June, I had a color appointment that had been booked two months in advance for my birthday. I reached out to Julia multiple times beforehand with an important question about changing my color service and received no response. I even contacted Syd and asked that Julia be informed. After still receiving no response, I called the salon on the day of my appointment and was told that the service I wanted could not be done because Julia had another client afterward. This was frustrating, especially because I had previously been told that Julia had cleared her schedule for me. Despite this, I still came in for my haircut. Everything between Julia and me was completely pleasant. We spoke normally, and she even asked if I wanted to book another appointment. I said I would call. There was absolutely no indication that there was a problem or that I was apparently accumulating "instances" that could result in being banned. That is why receiving this email months later, with no warning and no opportunity to discuss any concerns, feels incredibly unfair. I also found it extremely unprofessional and hurtful to discover that both Julia and Syd had blocked me on social media. I had rarely even seen Syd for appointments, and the appointments I did have with them went smoothly. I have screenshots documenting these interactions. From my perspective, several of the situations now being attributed to me were directly related to communication and scheduling issues on the salon's end. I was also frequently left waiting while Julia finished with other clients, and there were occasions during my own appointments where I was asked to wait while she worked with someone else. I was understanding about this, but it is difficult to be held accountable for scheduling concerns when I was also experiencing them as a client. What makes this even more disappointing is that I have since become aware of other clients describing similar situations where they were banned or penalized over issues that appear to have stemmed from their stylist's mistakes or poor communication. If this is a recurring issue, I sincerely hope the salon looks into how these situations are being handled. Julia is a talented stylist, and I genuinely enjoyed the work she did for me. However, good work does not excuse poor communication or time management, and clients should not be left to deal with the consequences of those issues without warning. I am not upset simply because I can no longer make an appointment here. I am upset because after being a loyal client for over a year, I was abruptly told I was no longer welcome without ever being given the opportunity to correct, clarify, or even discuss the alleged problems. I would have appreciated a conversation and basic transparency rather than being blindsided by an email. I truly loved this salon and recommended it to others, which makes writing this review particularly disappointing. I hope the salon takes this feedback seriously and works toward better communication, clearer policies, and greater accountability when issues arise. Clients deserve to know when there is a problem before they are suddenly shown the door.

Every time that I enter, I am always welcomed by the receptionist and offered a drink. Yelpers, if you check-in, you get a free glass of wine. Can't beat that except I am not a wine drinker but it's a nice gesture! It's located near the pet store so there are some cockroaches from time to time but I think it's a shared reaction with the hairstylists since they're not expecting them either but it won't drive me away from my amazing hairstylist!

I called the Salon after it was expired to see if I could use the money I had already paid to the salon as a credit towards a service and they flat out said no. So basically I wasted $35 for a service that I will never use with them because they are being greedy. Had they been better about the situation, I would have spent much more getting my hair done with them because I was planning on getting the works done on my hair ( color, highlights, trim and style). I hope keeping the $35 was worth it when you still would have made at least $150 on me not including the 20% tip I usually leave for the work. You lost a customer and all my contacts before you ever even gave me a chance.
