I read all the reviews so I made an appointment with Chelsea the owner. We discussed my hair and she did a beautiful job cutting it. I will go back. Sondra read more

The five star reviews ARE TRUE! First, the ambiance was so relaxing. Im talking essential oil diffuser, low chandelier lights, candles for sale, fun couches, with a maximalist-esque decor vibe, and even a little library! Second, I came in to get a bad color fixed from another salon and believe me when I say that she went above and beyond. I didn't expect much since it was in pretty bad shape coming in, but she blended it so well and did exactly what I wanted. Going back to the relaxing environment, at the shampoo bowl, I nodded off THREE times because I was so relaxed. THREE TIMES! That's never happened with uncomfortable shampoo bowls being at odd angles, but the bowl was what all shampoo bowls everywhere need to be! It's by appointment only so you'll want to book in advance if you want to get in. After I booked, I went to look for another time and she was already booked a month out. (Not surprising!!) Great conversationalist, wonderful treatment, took her time on me, and just.. what a lovely experience. I would say this place is definitely a Maplewood gem. read more

When I moved to STL I immediately started the hunt for a fantastic stylist. I contacted and had conversations with many. I decided to go with Chelsey and I am so happy I did. She is fantastic every time helping me decide on a new cut or to talk through what I was thinking with color. Her communication is spot on and I am always happy with my hair when I walk out. Plus I love our chat sessions when I am there. Highly recommend. read more

Chelsey always gives me the best haircuts. My teen daughters see her as well and they love how she does their hair so much!

the service that i requested was absolutely given to me at grace taylor salon. chelsey was so kind and so inviting (as was the vibe of her salon ). she knew exactly what i was looking for and i will be coming back to her once i need a change:). 10/10 for me! read more

Did a wonderful job. Very pleased with how my daughter's hair turned out. She looked super

I went to get gray blending done, which is not easy. Chelsey really took the time to consider how to best go about the coloring. She was so careful and precise about everything she did. She did an amazing job and I could tell she really cared about the results. The salon itself has great decor and such a relaxing vibe. If you want an amazing colorist, look no further than Chelsey! read more

She gave me an amazing haircut, did exactly what I asked for! I have pretty straight hair that naturally flips out at the ends, but the cut she gave even made my ends look better and I am able to air dry my hair without it looking messy because the cut is so good. Would 100% recommend her for a haircut, by far the best experience I have had at a salon in St. Louis. read more

I have been going to Grace Taylor Salon since I moved to St. Louis in 2017. It was a happy accident that I found this stylish shop in Maplewood. I trust Chelsey with my hair, and I do not trust many people in that department. I always look forward to having the chance to catch up, and leave with a fresh new look! read more

Chelsea was amazing! She really took the time needed to deal with very damaged hair. She was gracious and accommodating. Love the salon as well. Thank you thank you thank you! read more

I will follow Chelsey wherever she goes, she's seriously that good. I bring in pictures or give her an idea, and she brings it. When you say I only want a few inches off, she really listens. Thank goodness for this woman, I look professional and polished. I've never gotten so many compliments on my looks as I have after every cut by Chelsey. TIP: get your hair washed, her scalp massage is therapeutic (seriously). Very sweet person and beautiful inside and out. I think everyone will leave happier, relaxed, and feel like a million bucks! read more

This Salon is an experience you should treat yourself to. I found Rose to be educated in the latest styles & trends for cuts & coloring. read more

Grace Taylor Salon - Hair Stylists Near Me - Maplewood, Missouri

Chelsey has been my hair guru for over a year now. I luckily trusted groupon and decided to try her out while she was at her old salon. She is great, and now that she opened up her own beautiful salon, I can't imagine going anywhere else. The only negative review on this page couldn't be further from the countless experiences I have had with Chelsey. I often ask her opinion on styles and cuts, and I firmly believe that she knows better than I do. She shows me how to style it, and it always ends up better than anything I could imagine. Also, the bad yelpers review of her personality and voice was cruel and unnecessary... I love when it's time to get my hair done because I get to hang out with her! And I am not a friend she recruited to post, I am just a loyal customer because of her great work! Also, she gives you wine! read more

It's time for me to write a review about Chelsey and Grace Taylor Salon BECAUSE I'M QUALIFIED!!! That is......Chelsey has been cutting and coloring my hair for almost 3 years. She is the absolute BEST! I never have to worry EVER about leaving with a cut or color that I'm unhappy with, which is a first for me, and I'm no spring chicken! Chelsey listens. She gives me exactly what I ask for, only better. I have below-the-shoulder hair that I like cut in layers. I only have to wash and scrunch it because she cuts it so superbly. My bangs are always perfect and never butchered. She takes time with me......I never feel rushed. She spends time over the wash basin to massage my scalp and relax me completely. She is an interesting and curious person, and she remembers me and my life and I look forward to "catching up" when I see her. Truly, Chelsey seems too good to be true........I hope she NEVER closes up shop! Speaking of the shop (salon).......going there is like going home. Only better. Again. The decor is inviting and always evolving and ever interesting. The salon is in a pleasant neighborhood with lots of places to park on the street. I look forward to my appointments at Grace Taylor Salon on so many levels. Thank you, Chelsey, for making a "happy place" for me! read more

Amazing experiences both times I've been in! Super kind, great atmosphere and attention to detail with my hair. Thanks!!!

Simply put, she is so amazing and you will just love the work she does! Not only do I love my cuts and color but the head massage when she washes your hair is the best ever! read more

Chelsey is great! I am super happy with my haircut!!! She was meticulous in making sure the cut was right. I will be back for sure. And she guarantees her work for a week so if it's not right she'll fix it! read more

Had my hair cut and colored by Tirzah tonight. Was a completely positive experience and I have found my new stylist. I was offered water, wine or beer shortly after I arrived. She was on time. She took her time listening to me explain what I was looking for, asked great questions, and even listed my priorities back to me to make sure she understood them. Even though I hadn't met her before I really felt confident she took the time to understand what I was hoping for. She cut my hair wet then dried it and cut it again dry when I said it wasn't quite what I wanted! She was really a lot of fun to talk to, and I'm very happy with the results. I'm planning to go back. read more

Great men's haircut! Very detail oriented and she is passionate about her work. I've been going here for a couple years now and have been happy with every haircut. Highly recommended. read more

She moved to Loft Studios down the street (right by The Post in Maplewood) and she's still doin her thang makin me shine. The studio is v cute! I went to Rose for a color and cut and I couldn't be happier! I have gotten so many compliments...my hair has never had so much volume or looked so healthy. The color blonde she achieved is perfect. The experience itself was very enjoyable and the place is super cute! Going back for sure. read more

I moved to St. Louis within the past year and needed to find a new hair stylist to replace the one I had for 10+ years back home. Needless to say, not an easy feat! But Chelsey quickly exceeded all my expectations, and now I cannot imagine having my hair cut and colored by anyone else! I have received so many compliments on the color alone. Chelsey is so friendly and knowledgable. Her salon space is also gorgeous - it's a mid-century modern aesthetic, and the music and essential oils create an experience to delight all of the senses! I don't just feel like I'm at a hair salon, I feel as if I'm at an edgy, luxuriating spa. I cannot recommend enough, and I will be returning to Grace Taylor Salon again and again for the foreseeable future! 10/10. Thanks Chelsey!!! read more

Chelsea is the absolute best hair stylist I have ever had. She listens to your wants and gives you exactly that. I had been searching for a hair stylist that would give me what I want and treat my hair with care for years. I can't express how grateful I am to have found her. She also gives the best shampoo in the world. I swear I could fall asleep getting the scalp massage during conditioning. If anyone is looking for a great colorist and someone to give you a fabulous cut, then she is the one!!! read more

I had a great experience here! Chelsea knows what she's doing and is super sweet and accommodating.

Was expecting so much more based on the amazing reviews here. I was able to get in with Chelsey quickly, which was nice. That was the only upside. First, she was nearly 20 minutes for my appointment. I get sometimes you run late, but still annoying. Showed her a picture of what I wanted my hair to look like (I just wanted a cut - no color). About 15 minutes into my appointment, a guy who I assume is her husband walks in, grabs a beer, and sits down on the couch behind me. The rest of the time he clearly is just waiting for her to be done so they can leave. It was SO rude, I felt like she was rushing to be done the entire time. When she got done cutting my hair she literally says "well it doesn't look anything like the picture you gave me...." UM WHAT. She continues to try to fix it for a solid 10-15 more minutes and still can't get it right. Finally she says "well with your body, your hair is just always going to flip out at the bottom like that. You can't look like the picture unless I cut off another three inches". Again, what? First of all, what does my body have to do with it? That comment was rude and unnecessary. Second, my hair has been this about this length for years and it has never done that. Third, if you cut off three inches it wouldn't even hit my shoulders, so it still wouldn't look anything like the picture. Her husband is sitting there the whole time tapping his foot and looking impatient so I finally was like this is good enough, I'll try to figure something out at home. I got a halfhearted "well if you don't like it, I guarantee my work, so you can come back" Ended up getting it touched up somewhere else that week and she fixed it in about 5 minutes - looks exactly like the picture I wanted. I guess I'm the exception, everyone else seems to love her, but I definitely won't be back. read more

I recently broke my hands and was looking for a good hair stylist within walking distance of my house. I got really lucky finding Grace Taylor right here in my neighborhood! I got into Nikki who was wonderful to work with! New mom problems I haven't highlighted my hair since summer and I have a LOT of it. Nikki did a beautiful blonde highlight and was never rushed through it. A lot of new stylists see my hair and already seemed irritated at how long it's going to take. Not Nikki, she was patient and really listens to her clients' needs! I got a haircut as well for the first time in about a year. I have anxiety about how short people cut it beyond what I ask for. She started with a small trim and showed me she really cares about making sure it was exactly how I wanted. She made me so comfortable I told her she could cut some more! I had a great experience and she charged me a very reasonable price for the amount of work she put into my highlight. Definitely will be coming back! read more

I have been going to Grace Taylor for 2 years. I found them on Yelp when I first moved here and have been very happy with the services I have received. I have gone from long to medium to pixie length hair and have received compliments on all styles. Highly Recommend. read more

When I first moved to St. Louis, I was nervous. I was a TV news personality, and if I may say without any vanity, my appearance was a critical component of my job. Hopefully you can understand I had to be picky and particular. Thankfully, I found Chelsey and I never had to worry again. I have had numerous cuts from Chelsey and I will never go to another stylist, so long as I am in St. Louis. Grace Taylor salon is a beautiful and relaxing place to go and with Chelsey at it's helm, you absolutely could not ask for more. Chelsey is what some would call a perfectionist when it comes to her craft. I cannot express enough how much I admire that in a stylist. She takes her time and focuses on each cut, every angle, all to make it perfect. This is an incredibly rare trait in a stylist and it's exactly what most women want. More, she ensures that I know exactly how to replicate what she's done when we are not together. She has provided lessons to me on how to fix my hair and style it, etc. She takes extra time in the appointment to talk with me about home styling technique. She wants me to leave not only with a cut that looks perfect when she's done it, but with the confidence, based on experience, that I can do the look myself. Few other stylists would want to provide you with these skills. Any one who has interpreted her intentions as anything else is simply wrong. Chelsey is often going to seminars and conferences to learn the very latest in styling. She is dedicated to doing the very best job and I really believe she knows exactly what's doing with every cut and color (mine is pretty darn complicated). Though her talent for styling is really palpable, what I love most about Chelsey is her warm personality. She listens to my styling needs and concerns. She has a way of making me and others feel really good about themselves, glamorous and fabulous, when they leave her chair. I get so many compliments on my hair. I can honestly say I have given many referrals to now happy clients. I know that her number one priority is a satisfied client with the best and hottest cut and color, but she also cares that you had a good, relaxed time while you were with her. There's a reason her business has grown so fast in such a short time. If I were you, I'd make an appointment soon, because she's been booking up lately. Hey, that's what happens when you're good. read more

I first met Chelsey when she worked at a different salon in CWE. I had read rave reviews of her there and was going for the drastic change of long (elbow length) hair to a short pixie cut. Chelsey was patient, thoughtful, and offered great advice while I was showing her and talking about what I wanted. She advised that we go slow, and take our time with the cut so that I was happy with it. She made sure to know exactly what I wanted and expertly cut my hair into a chin length bob. Though I was extremely nervous about drastic cut, Chelsey did an outstanding job! I have never been to another stylist since! She's a perfectionist and dedicated to making you look and feel good. She took her time to ensure I was happy with the cut and showed me how to style it as well. She always has new ideas from seminars, and conferences. And when I bring in a Pintrest idea, she's always open to it! And executes it perfectly! I was so excited to see her company and brand grow with this new salon. She's put a lot of care and hard work into this salon and it shows! She's booking up fast! Not only does her salon offer expert work and styling, there are eyelash extensions, waxing, and many other services. The decor is astounding and in such a easy accessible location. I have recommended her to everyone, even my mom goes to her! I would definitely book an appointment soon! read more

I went here for the first time today and I must say I am so impressed. I had Nikki as my stylist. She took the sweet time and made my hair better than I expected. My hair is not easy to work with. I am Hispanic with thick coarse hair and not only did she do perfect color and cut she styled my hair and thought me how to do it at home. I will for sure be coming again. Thank you Nikki! read more

I absolutely love coming here! Chelsey really understands how to highlight blonde hair which I really appreciate and she also isn't stingy with the number of foils like so many hairdressers. She is the first hair dresser that I've continued to come back to in the St. Louis area and have been seeing her for 3 years now and will continue to come back. Highly recommended her!! read more

I don't know where to start but here goes...I had the BEST experience with stylist Tirzah! She has such a natural styling that a huge change for me (brunette to redhead) looked so beautiful and effortless. I was feeling so confident that I had her do my eyelashes (my first time ever!) as well on a whim and ended up spending the afternoon being pampered. Conversation was easy and she made sure I had something to drink more than once. This salon is super cute too!! I seriously can't wait for my next appointment and I really recommend Tirzah! read more

Chelsey is a wonderful stylist!! I am so happy I found this salon after a lot of searching in the St. Louis area. I go to the salon every 2-3 months for routine partial highlights and a cut. The prices are very reasonable and the quality is great. The salon itself has a very calming and friendly ambiance, and every visit feels very COVID-safe as well. Highly recommend! :) read more

Chelsey is the best and I have trusted her to cut and color my hair for several years! This is the only salon I would feel comfortable going to during a pandemic. Very clean, spacious, and it's just you and the stylist! She also takes great pride in her work and always checks to make sure I am happy before leaving! read more

Best hair salon! I have very thin and fine hair, Chelsey is the only person I trust my hair with. Miracle worker! read more

Chelsey is fantastic & always does a great job! A friend referred me a year ago & it's been great.

My wife Debbie says...wonderful experience! Loads of compliments. Has already booked next appointment. My opinion? She looks fabulous. Thanks Chelsea. read more

I was lucky enough to be the first hair cut by Chelsey baker at her new salon, Grace Taylor.  Chelsey has been cutting my hair for about a year now and it's great every time, and for the service you can't beat the price.  Guys tell her you want the permanent part!  The new salon is really nice.  You can tell she has really put all her heart and soul into it.  She's a perfectionist, and it shows in her top notch hair cuts as well as her very own salon.  Go see her and her new place you won't be disappointed! I guess something new she is doing is a hot towel for your face as she shampoos your hair.  She didn't do that before, but it's a really nice touch.  Its the little things like that, that keep me going back.  She can fill up quick so if you don't want to wait, call and book an appointment with Chelsey today! Update: Only thing I can add is that I would suggest makine an appointment ahead of time. Chelsey can often fit you in with in a day or 2 but I enjoy walking in knowing I won't have to wait. read more

I went to Grace Taylor twice, once for a haircut (which was fine) and a second time for coloring. I was very unimpressed with the coloring. The color was wrong, inconsistent and wasnt what I wanted. While I was there another woman had to come back to get her hair color redone, which now doesnt surprise me. 2 stars because the color was horrible, but the cut was ok. I had to go somewhere else to get the color corrected. What a waste of time and money. I wouldn't recommend for anything more than a cut. read more

Chelsey is very thorough and takes the time to make sure your hair lays right and that you are happy with the cut. I usually show her a picture of the hairstyle I am wanting and she makes it happen. She is very easy to talk to and laid back. I would highly recommend her! read more

I went for my hair cut and never been this happy with it before. Chelsey is amazing and very patient. She really focused on what type of hair style I'm looking for and delivered it perfectly. I would definitely recommend and visit her again. read more
