The space was extremely clean, and the atmosphere was so friendly and relaxing. Denae is just wonderful to work with! She was so attentive, detailed, and caring throughout the whole process.

The team is definitely lucky to have her! I have officially found my forever go-to salon.

I know I can trust Helen to give me perfection even when I don't even know what I want. Today, I came to Helen wanting to blend my roots a little bit. She had done this absolutely gorgeous ash bronde balayage, but it had been a few months and I wanted to blend my very very dark roots. I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted, so I told Helen to do what she thinks would be best and wow, she delivered. She somehow created me the perfect tone for my skin that makes me look so tan and glowy. Even though I was in a bit of a time crunch, she still gave me such a beautiful blowout and soft curls. I've gotten more compliments today on my hair than probably my whole life! All the girls at the salon were so sweet and welcoming and even their clientele were so kind. Heather has really created something special! Can't wait to get my hair done again soon!!!

Still, I had a lunch meeting coming up and no time to schedule an appointment. I passed Van's Hair Stylists and spotted a sign that walk-ins were welcome. I was seriously impressed at how the stylist knew just how to trim and shape my hair to it's best advantage. It really looked nice. I haven't felt that way leaving a salon in a very long time. Polite, confident, and VERY capable. I am happy to recommend Van's Hair Stylists.

But it's now under new management and the new owner is a butcher, a liar, and the place is filthy. She absolutely destroyed my hair. I walked in for a simple cut and she sat me in the chair and started chopping it off while it was dry. I asked her three times to stop and she wouldn't, telling me that she was just doing what I asked. There were actually holes in the back of my head and the sides were completely uneven and she "thinned it" which made it stick to my head. My daughter went back with me and tried to get my money back, but she said she didn't know how to operate the machine and I'd have to deal with my credit card company. There was no place for her to wash my hair because the sinks were filled with materials like old perm boxes, and I saw a mouse. Seriously, do not go you will regret it

Pretty good experience - a little on the fence…read more I was presented a gift card to the Sugar House Day Spa and Salon. It had been some time since I received a massage, so I was looking forward to this visit! There is a parking garage conveniently located next to the spa, so that was great. The staff at the entrance promptly greeted me and asked if it was my first time. The process of checking in and getting around was simplified by them taking the time to walk me where I needed to go rather than just telling me, which was appreciated. I was walked to the area where I changed into a robe and was subsequently accompanied to the massage area. Unfortunately for me, there were a lot of stairs, something that my knee and foot surgeries did not appreciate. It was a little awkward to sit in a small, public waiting area wearing a robe but it's a minor sacrifice. I had a massage with Audrey, who was very nice and professional. I appreciated that she took the time to ask me about my concern areas and my goals for the massage. The massage itself was good, though I unfairly compare massages to my former therapist who was exceptional. Audrey was very communicative and, even for someone who finds it difficult to relax, it was a good experience. Overall, The Sugar House Day Spa is worth a visit - it's also worth purchasing a gift card for someone. They will appreciate it! (NOTE: you can use the funds from the gift card to supplement a tip)

She loved it. Monique was her manicurist for many years. I've done countless pickups for both her and my daughters at this place and she spent lots of money here. My money, lol. Services are definitely unique to the individual providing them so I would definitely judge accordingly. She always got the mani/pedi combo from Monique - until she left. Good business, but consistency is variable.

He has never been anything less than professional, welcoming, fabulous and a joy to be around. After all these years, he feels like a friend who I get to ki-ki with while he makes me feel pretty. I wouldn't recommend anyone else.

Her mother used to come to work with some awesome hairstyles that I thought were her hair. it took her about 3 hours to complete. The tracks are glued to two stocking caps. The 2nd cap is so that the glue does not stick to your hair but she can also put a plastic cap underneath which will do the same thing. I used the old texture of the Bohyme Brazilian wave hair ( i ordered if off of ebay) which she straightened. I used black and brown hair and she alternated the tracks. She charged me $140. the only thing that I did not like was the back. I wanted it bobbed not tapered but I wasn't paying attention!

She does haircare, skincare, massages, and other health and beauty services. What is nice about Susanne is that she gives you personalized attention. You are not marched through an assembly line. She takes time and gets to know your individual needs. She also has a good eye for detail. She has a lot of experience with hair color and she works with both women and men. She does not over-schedule clients so when you go to her, you are her focus. She also has really cute dogs that she sometimes brings to the salon. Her work space is always light, airy and clean. I have gotten my hair done there, facials, massage, waxing and more over the years. Always very good! She has a lot of happy clients who are very loyal to her. You can tell her what you need and she will work with you.

I had been going to Amber & Slate for over six months and consistently had a good experience with…read moreJustin.Unfortunately, after he left, my experience completely changed. For my recent appointment (a root touch-up and hair cut) I arrived 18 minutes late due to a personal emergency and called ahead to inform the salon. When I arrived, instead of being met with understanding or even basic courtesy, I was treated with noticeable disrespect and arrogance by Patrick. he refused to even do part of the service I had booked. Ultimately, I was sent back upon arrival and did not receive the service I had scheduled. While I absolutely understand that punctuality is important and that salons run on tight schedules, the way the situation was handled felt unnecessarily hostile and unprofessional. There's a difference between enforcing policy and treating a client dismissively. At this price point, I expect professionalism, communication, and basic respect. Sadly, this visit left me feeling unwelcome and undervalued as a returning client. I hope management takes feedback like this seriously, because client experience matters just as much as the technical service.

When I asked about it, the stylist said quickly: "you agreed to it in the chair." I paid, but I honestly don't remember the interaction (and it was a short visit!). Paying 50% more than I was expecting, with no memory of agreeing, makes me feel like I have to be on guard next time I go. It was not a good way to end an otherwise lovely visit. I won't return.

I highly recommend Aquilano, and Kevin in particular.

Upon entering you will find a modern salon with a little bit of an Asian flair in decor. Very clean and calming. I guarantee you will be greeted with a smile, an offer to store your coat and a drink if you like. The waiting area is clean and neat and features a coffee machine and a refrigerator with a selection of refreshing drinks. Honestly I've never waited long because appointments run on time. Next is the hair wash station where I'm always soaped up with lovely scented shampoo that suits my hair type. And there's the heavenly head massage. I could sit there all day! I have short hair and Kevin is an expert at this kind of cut. Love the way he flips the scissors as he works. I've also seen some great color work and he's got many customers with long beautiful haircuts as well. Payment at the front desk is super easy. All the stylists and shampoo artists take cash or Venmo for tips. I highly recommend Aquilano salon.
