This is a full service salon. I am writing my review on nail and message service only. I did not…read morehave any hair service. The message therapy is beyond soothing. They have three small rooms upstairs for a message. The rooms are painted is warm neutral colors with 'spa' music playing softly. The oils they use smell wonderful. I was truly relaxed after my message at Elm. The Pedicure was equally inviting. The nail technician was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. I liked the lotion they used so much I bought some! The only down side was they did not have a lot of colors to choose from for nail service. If they had a broader selection I would have given Elm 5 stars.

The ambiance is cute and calm which is a refreshing change from typical hair salons. Everyone is friendly and the service is great. Beth did an awesome job with my disastrous mop that hadn't been cut in years! On top of all that, hair cuts are affordable!

I just got my haircut from Lori at 5th Avenue and LOVE it! I had been going to her for years until…read moreI moved to the cities. I tried several other stylist and none could cut my hair as well as Lori. I have long brown thick hair and always have trouble styling it because it's so heavy. Lori layered my hair in all the right spots and now my hair has more volume and styles perfectly. I will definitely be going back-even if it's an hour drive for me!

Their website is sleek and new so seeing the outside of the salon is quite a shock. It looks a bit…read moremessy and old from outside. Inside it is a comfortable older building with antiques and it is fun, whimsical and CLEAN. Elia is new and I got a coupon off the salon's website for a discount cut and color. She was great! She listened to what I wanted, consulted with other stylists and was friendly and talkative but not overly so. I have to admit that I often do not like getting my hair done because I have a difficult time expressing what I want. I brought in a picture and the colors came out almost exactly like the picture. Every stylist was nice, helpful, offered to get me a magazine, water, coffee, etc. I WILL be back! Best place that I have found to get my hair done since leaving NJ nine years ago.

They are able to be an active participant in the decisions which make them feel good about how they look. On top of the phenomenal quality hair cuts and color we have gotten here, I'm humbled and satisfied to be supporting a Hastings native with their small business.

Our initial experience was great during the human hair topper sales process. All of my questions…read morewere answered. My husband and I were told that once I was ready to wash it, I could bring it in and learn how to care for it. We were told that there was no charge for this first wash service. Unfortunately, Sarah went back on her initial promise, and charged me $40 for the first wash. I am happy with the product itself but disappointed that the information that we were told at the point of sale was not honored.

I haven't done gone in for a facial wax since pre-Covid! I had some extra time on a Saturday right…read morebefore Christmas and thought it'd be nice to get it done. I was surprisingly able to schedule an appointment quickly and easily online for a same day appointment. I went in, they called me back pretty much the exact time of my appointment. The lady was quick and friendly! The one thing preventing my review from being 5 stars is the lack of privacy. You are sitting in the salon at a sink/bowl, so if you're the type that doesn't want to be out in the open where people can watch you get hair yanked out of your face, you may want to find a different place.

Amanda Cherry owns the salon and was my stylist. She is an effervescent bundle of talent and humor…read more My hair really was a tangled mess of Medusa's snakes. I had curls sticking out everywhere. When I left my hair was a cohesive, in-style choppy layered shape. The shampoo was relaxing. The chat felt like I was talking to an old friend, even though we had never met before! My hair looks good. But I am going back to see Amanda again for some coloring. Her next appointment is 2 weeks out I know my hair will be great then!

I've been a customer of the owner, Amanda, since she was at Fantastic Sam's in Hastings. I moved…read moreout of state for a year, and when I moved back to the area, I was delighted to see that she had opened her own salon. She is so talented and obviously she is an excellent stylist. She has great customer service and she is a joy to talk to. I have since moved away from Hastings to Minneapolis, and after a disastrous experience at a downtown salon, I decided I would make the 40 minute drive to have Amanda do my hair. She listens well and I always walk out of there with a great hair cut. She is also a talented colorist. I know all of the other stylists at this salon are wonderful as well.
