Great place and service. Ask for Sam and you will be very pleased She is very experienced and…read moreprofessional.

My 13-year-old daughter had an appointment for…read morea blowout, and she's particular about her hair -- she wants it sleek and straight, but a previous visit left it frizzy and not styled the way she wanted. So this time, I let the manager, Sabrina, know in advance that my daughter preferred a different stylist. Sabrina became defensive and accusatory, telling me she wasn't going to let me "blame and dismiss" her stylist. I calmly explained that wasn't my intention at all -- I was simply requesting a different stylist for my daughter's appointment, which should be a reasonable request. Instead of listening, she was dismissive and rude throughout the conversation, and stood there chewing gum the entire time, which came across as disrespectful and unprofessional. This isn't an isolated incident -- this location has consistently had staff who are rude and dismissive. It's disappointing to pay for a membership and never know whether I'm going to get a good experience or a frustrating one. Drybar needs to do a better job training staff at this location on basic customer service.

This was my first time trying a new salon in a long time so I was…read morenervous, but Nicole made sure to ask me exactly what I was looking for, was communicative and extremely knowledgable about everything hair. She was transparent about pricing, and took her time to make sure it she did my hair was exactly as I was imagining. She is very detailed with her work, which put me as ease. She is also very sweet, making my time here an even better experience. I got partial highlights and a cut, and I could not be happier with how it turned out. I've definitely found my new regular hair stylist!

I was very disappointed with my haircut at Heretic. I went in wanting a clean, polished short bob,…read moreand unfortunately the finished cut was not what I asked for. The back was visibly uneven, the shape was inconsistent from one side to the other, and once I got home and was able to really look at it, I could see how poorly the cut had been executed. I paid $120 plus tip, so I expected a professional haircut and a much better result. I contacted my stylist, Michael, afterward and asked for a refund because I did not feel comfortable having him cut it again. I did not receive a response to my refund request. I'm attaching photos because they show the haircut better than I can describe it. I'm very disappointed both with the service and with how my concern was handled afterward.

I'm post-partum, post-divorce, and in need of a serious glow-up to start feeling like myself again…read more It's finally becoming a hot topic to discuss what pregnancy does to the body, which is a nightmare in itself that I still can't bring myself to embrace, but one thing we still aren't talking enough about is HAIR. My beautiful, luscious wavy locks were completely transformed by two rapid-fire pregnancies. Now coarse, dry and with sections growing in grey, it's like I don't even recognize myself! Caught in the middle of a "season" of not being ready to date, but not wanting to avoid mirrors anymore, I called up Ministry Salon. Suspicious of both the friendly tone of the person on the other line, the easy availability to book an appointment, and the convenient location, I was pretty nervous walking into the first appointment. I've been burned before. Somewhere along the way, I've been programmed to think scarcity of availability for salons means they're better quality, since the appointments are seemingly more in demand. Thankfully, my nerves were quickly quelled. Emily was so kind, personable, and NORMAL. She didn't make me feel uncomfortable, the salon was welcoming and the color service? Phenomenal. There's a moment during a foil color treatment where you have no idea what you're going to look like in 10 minutes. Not a clue. It's a kind of stress and anxiety that's hard to explain unless you've already personally experienced the bowl rinse out after a color treatment. Wondering, have I just made a terrible mistake? This is my new spot. The foil came off, the rinse completed, and after the blow dry I looked in the mirror and couldn't believe it. I looked..like...myself! The self I remembered from before kids! It's been a month since the color treatment and it's growing out SO WELL that you'd never know what a disaster I was before the appointment. Thank you Emily!

I'm so glad I found The Ministry! After literal years searching for a stylist who does great short…read morecuts, I stumbled upon this bright, pretty salon full of rad people. (Bonus, next door to a great little coffee shop with fresh pastries and excellent espresso.) First, I booked myself with Rachel Galati, who is so skilled (and highly educated), creative, and also lovely to hang out & chat with during your appointment. She gives the BEST short, cool, alty hair and is a glorious old-Hollywood glam/gothic fae scissor wizard! Today I brought my 11 y/o daughter in when she decided it was time for a fresh new look - she just started middle school and made a decisive change. It could not be more flattering and was exactly what she wanted. Rachel was so excited to support this transformation and had great rapport with my kiddo. 12/10, no notes, highly recommend, and THANK YOU!

She has such a great sense of humor and makes the entire appointment feel comfortable and fun. As someone with naturally curly hair, I'm usually very nervous about letting people touch it because not everyone knows how to work with curls. Salvi completely changed that for me. From the way she gently brushes my hair to the way she applies the color and styles it, you can tell she truly cares about the health of your hair. She pays attention to every detail and works with so much care and precision. Every time I leave, my hair feels incredibly smooth, healthy, and beautiful with no unnecessary breakage. I'm always amazed by the results. If you're looking for someone who is talented, caring, and truly passionate about what she does, I can't recommend Salvi enough!

It was such a disappointing and disrespectful experience. I was a customer, and I deserved to be treated with basic kindness and respect. Unfortunately, they made me feel like I wasn't even being treated as a human being. There are so many other wonderful places with professional staff who genuinely care about their customers. I will never come back to this place, and I would not recommend it to anyone. Please save your time and money and go somewhere you will be appreciated and treated with respect.
