    Amazing experience at the Paul Mitchell School. Grace R. did a phenomenal job--she truly listened…read moreto what I wanted and confirmed everything with the professional, amazing instructors, especially Kari, which made the entire process seamless and reassuring. The salon and school completely wowed me. Everything from start to finish was professional, welcoming, and well run. I was so impressed that I booked my next appointment before leaving and will be back next week. Highly recommend!

    If I could leave 0 stars I would. As a current student here I don't feel like I would recommend…read morethis place at all. Often I see The teachers sitting most of the day and talking to each other and/or their "favorite students" and getting services done instead of helping the others and they visibly look and act annoyed when you interrupt their conversation to ask them a question or for help. One of my biggest problems with the school is that it is so overcrowded in the main area. They accepted WAY too many students and now we all don't have room to even walk without trying to not bump into someone's tool kit or mannequin. Most days if you arrive on time you have to get a table that's pushed up to the wall and has no power plug in sight. Then you get handed a client and are expected to just find a station and be 100% prepared right off the bat. They also don't accommodate people with allergens because whenever we have something that takes up our lunch, like a presentation or a zoom call, they order pizza and that's it. I know two people that have gluten allergens who've asked what to do for lunch since they can't leave and there isn't food that's edible to them and the response they've gotten was "DoorDash or don't eat" which is crazy. When we take lunch breaks we have to eat in our cars since they took the tables that were in the lunch room and put them in the main room because of the crowding problem. When you bring up the issues to the staff they reply with "this is what working in a salon/ hair industry is like" but I don't think any salon has Disney music playing all day and your leaders don't want to help you. I've had instances with teachers where I forgot something once and they dig into me about my unprofessionalism to the point where I've left in tears because of the harsh words they said and I know others who have had the same experience. If you want to go to a school where you basically teach yourself everything and get little to no help I recommend Paul Mitchell.

    This is a swanky salon that's a very busy beehive with a bevy of stylists and nonstop customers;…read moreit's kind of nice to see that the Michigan recession hasn't touched this spot one bit, and it's also nice to see a business where you can lapse momentarily into thinking that at least one place in the state hasn't crashed and burned while the water is running down the sides of your head and two assistants are talking about hair color overtop of you! I had Jennifer T. as a stylist, and she is awesome. I went in for a quite a few procedures--and they did them all as fast as they could, working efficiently, with an overseer who would come by and check out my color to make sure it was doing what she and Jennifer thought it should (just like in the shows on TV!). I'd give the place a 5-star rating, but it's super, super pricey (my bill was near $200), which may or may not be reasonable depending on what I had done (I don't go often enough to salons to accurately gauge, but I know I got sticker shock when I got the bill). I've had expensive haircuts in the past, and you get what you pay for, so it just depends on how much you want to spend, but, regardless, Mariomax is a fun and lively place. I'd go there a lot more often if I won the lottery!

    Stylists are great but the front desk girl, Lily is rude and condescending. I've witnessed her…read moreberating coworkers in front of customers.;She is rude and brash. I heard her telling a young girl that just stated, that she was slow and dumb. I was so uncomfortable and told the new girl she was doing a great job. Lily rolled her eyes. I've been a customer for years and because oh Lily, I have found another salon to go to that treats their staff with kindness and respect.
