    Missed spots for a blonde color
    Mikaela B.

    I've been to this salon 3 times. Every time I go, I show them a picture of the blonde I want, absolutely no dark hair in the pictures, and they still leave so much dark in my hair. My last visit, I made it a point to say I didn't want any dark in my hair. I was initially okay with the results because she didn't leave as much dark as the last girl did. Then recently, I saw this picture someone took of me. The last girl I went to completely missed two huge strips on the back of my head. I'm so embarrassed that I've been walking around like this. For the price you pay...this salon is not worth it. I pay $300+ every time I go and am never happy with my results. The vibe is cute in the place but that's about it. I gave it a couple chances but I'm done.

    With the extensions!

    Sending in another review! This is the third time I've gotten hair extensions with Annie! She is amazing, I love them more and more each time I get them! Everyone needs to see Annie from Ello Pretty for all your hair needs! This is an absolutely amazing salon. It has such a wonderful atmosphere and everyone is so sweet! They also use IGK and R+Co products, which smell and feel great! Thank you thank you thank you Annie!!

    I have been going to Lauren Billingsly for EXACTLY two years now (happy anniversary). I can't even think about going to anyone else without getting anxious, every time I go no matter what cut I get it's perfect. From bangs to layers to fixing the undercut I got on a whim without consulting you (oops). The salon itself looks like a building made for photoshoots: Clean, minimalistic, greenery, big open space, and room to walk so you're not crowded screaming over each other. You walk in and you feel like you're there out on a coffee date with your friends. Every person I see walks out with photoshoot-ready hair and I can't suggest this place more. If you like good vibes this is the salon for you!

    Amazing blonde by Kelsey

    I cannot recommend Kelsey at Ello Pretty enough! I've been seeing Kelsey Kerrigan since I moved back to RI and she is amazing! My blonde is always perfect! If you're looking for someone who knows blondes, Kelsey's it. Her attention to detail is unmatched. She always makes sure my hair is healthy, on-trend and professional for my job. Plus, she's an absolute joy to see! 10/10

    Ashley is the extension goddess!! Its my first time ever having extensions installed & she has sealed the deal for me, ill be going to her now and forever to continue to get them. For starers, she was very thorough on the installation process and what to expect after first getting them. Secondly, she set me up for success with both after care products and instructions to make the most out of my extensions. Lastly, they're absolutely beautiful!! I have received so many compliments on how natural looking they are. They are so long, thick & soft im absolutely obsessed. Total confidence booster, 10/10 recommend. See before & after photos below!! Dont walk... RUN & go book with Ashley!!

    They're awesome! Hair and makeup for a wedding in Newport. Wasn't too far and we booked them for their positive reviews.

    I have been seeing Kelsey for over two years and I am always so impressed by what she can do with my hair! I see her primarily for highlights/hair-painting/foils but she also cuts my hair occasionally. Everyone in the salon is so kind and I always leave feeling more beautiful! I am so thankful for Kelsey!

    Ello pretty is the cutest Salome with such a great aesthetic!! The staff there is soo friendly, offering to take your jacket and give you a water as soon as you walk in! I've gotten extensions at other places before and none of them compared to the ones I got here!! I go to Kelsey and she's amazing and really knows what she's doing and talking about! Love it here, 10/10 recommend!

    I absolutely love this place !! It's my favorite salon I've been to so far. To find it is a lil confusing bc you'll see the sign the the entrance is on the other side : look for RiffRaff and park in there or on the street. Such a cute building community! It's airy , friendly and comfy. They are real cool ppl in there. The most talented Kara colored and cut my hair and I gotta say from East to West she's the best ! My hair is a work in progress. Goal is blonde. Perhaps platinum. She steered me right to getting some hair painting first and go from there. She obviously cares about my hair and the end product. I'll post pics on the progress but here's day one :

    There wasn't much color before but the "after" was amazing! Absolutely in love with how my hair looks.

    See all

    How do I make an appointment?

    Anyone here specialize in cutting curly hair?

    Hi there! Some of the girls do work often on curly hair. However, if it is something like a specific cut (i.e. Deva Curl cut) that is not something we do not specialize in. Feel free to schedule a consultation to better discuss any of your needs… Read more

    Is anyone there good at cutting the baby bangs for women?

    Absolutely. Check out the girls Instagram to see if you can find your perfect style match.

After speaking to the stylist about what I wanted ( a simple updo low bun with loose hanging curls in front or a blowout with the old Hollywood style) she informed me the blowout would be quicker since I was on a time constraint of 90 minutes. My appointment was at 9am, and I've never had a blowout take more than 45 minutes -1 hour max. I've also done this to my own hair, I am by no means an expert, and it does not take me more than an hour. I simply came in for a blowout because I'm pregnant and just didn't want to do it myself. While the stylist was very very nice, provided water, gave me a couple of times to stop and go to the bathroom, she was just too amateur of a stylist to be styling someone for a major event. I sat down in the chair to begin at 9:10 and walked out at 10:57am. The shampoo was mediocre, honestly she pulled my hair quite a bit. The blow dry took a lot time and the heat was too high she kept burning my scalp. My hair is very cooperative, easily holds curls, and the stylist was curling the only smallest little sections of hair at a time. I did let her know initially my hair holds curl very well, and halfway through my head told her to use bigger sections, as we were running far behind schedule. The final look was not an old fashioned look. I was super disappointed after 2 hours to have something like this. For time reference, I also brought my daughter for a blowout, we started at the same time, and she has extremely thick long hair, and a lot of it. She was washed, blown out and curled 30 minutes before I was done. Not sure why the child was given the expert stylist and I was given the new one, but I was overall disappointed. Not only could I have done a better job, I didn't get what I wanted, paid for it, and it took 2 hours. Photos included show how I wanted my hair (chosen from their lookbook), how my hair turned out. Would have given 2 stars, but went with 3 stars because my daughter's hair turned out great.

She gave me so much time on the day of my trial, honoring my desire to try different looks and take feedback about what I liked and didn't like, and even was willing to do another trial just so I could experience multiple options of an updo vs. a glam wave. I already loved the time I had spent with Caitlin in her salon but the energy that she and Megan brought on the morning of the wedding was more than I could have asked for. They made everyone feel so comfortable, including members of my bridal party that didn't have experience getting their hair done or felt a little awkward. They were so receptive to different ideas and made everyone's hair dreams come true. They were incredibly efficient and we got done in the perfect amount of time. And the hair and makeup itself! My updo was exquisite and lasted all night long with no problems. Similarly, the makeup looked gorgeous throughout the night. I felt like an absolute princess and I am so grateful to Caitlin and Megan for being a part of my day.

The sides were too long, the proportions were wrong, and the style did not match the images at all. For sixty dollars, I expected a basic men's cut to be done correctly. He felt uncomfortable speaking up in the moment, so he paid and left, but he was very unhappy with the result. I do not care about a refund. I want accountability. The salon needs to know what happened so they can prevent this from happening to other clients. I will be calling the manager and plan to come in person the next time I am in Providence to explain what went wrong. Clients deserve to feel heard, and the final cut should match what they requested. The one good thing is that my son learned an important lesson. It is completely acceptable to speak up if the service is not what you asked for. If you are unhappy with a haircut, ask for a manager or request a stylist with more experience in men's cuts. I attached photos so you could see for yourself.
