I'm not one to go through the…read morehassle of leaving a review but I literally created a yelp account to do so for r.Collective. I'm very picky about my hair and am learning what I like as I wanted to go shorter. At my first cut short with Dream, it was storming and the power went out at the salon and we didn't get to do the finishing touches, so she gave me a free product had me come back a couple days later for a complimentary cut where I decided I wanted to go even shorter and get bangs. I still was not satisfied with the cut (let me clarify that Dream is an amazing stylist and did exactly what I asked her to do, but I wanted to pick an owner's brain about what would look good on me), so I requested an apt with an owner. Tony got me in the next day and we took it even shorter and he cut it with a razor. He made it look exactly like the picture I showed him but I still was not satisfied with it on me so I requested to come back again for a pixie and he got me in a few days later. I LOVE how the pixie looks on me. It just took me four separate haircuts to get there. I only paid once for the initial cut. And after the last cut Tony still said to give him a ring if anything else needs to be done. This is pristine customer service. Everyone I interacted with was so patient, accommodating and supportive as I learned how I wanted my hair to look. Additionally, both salons (Clawson and Birmingham) are super clean and just cool spaces to hangout when getting a haircut. Highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend.

I oversaturated my hair with color and wanted highlights to give it dimension. Jackie did an…read moreexcellent job! The color was perfect. She was also very aware that my hair was already somewhat fried, so she monitored the bleach so there wouldn't be too much damage. 4 stars because the noise level in the salon was high.

She is SO intuitive and talented when it comes to crafting the perfect combination of cut and color to flatter your features and make your hair dreams come true. (I've included a few pics of previous looks she's done for me as proof of her artistry) On top of being great at what she does, Vega is truly just a lovely and engaging presence, so fun to chat with! If you're reading these reviews trying to choose a stylist, try Vega - you won't regret it. The salon itself is gorgeous and welcoming - I love all the snacks and drinks they offer, the music is always great and the rest of the employees are lovely and seem to be equally great at their work, from what I've observed. I'm moving to Boston soon but I plan on scheduling appointments with Vega whenever I visit Michigan, rather than finding a new stylist in MA. That should tell you everything you need to know!

I just went a few days ago for my 4th visit in a year and Helena did an amazing job giving me a new fresh spring look. I love that I can give her a little inspiration and she takes it from there to give me better than I expected. Trusting your stylist is important and every time I trust her to give me the best! She should be called the queen of layers because I always love the layers she gives so I can keep my long hair but still feel lighter and fresh with the cut. Fanar is awesome too as he cuts my husband's hair and always gives a great cut and service. Helena and Fanar also make you feel like you are at home when you are in the salon. I would recommend 10000000000%.

R. Collective & Colleen are the BEST! After moving to MI a few years ago, one of my first to-do's…read morewas to find a salon for not only great hair, but to have some me time & connect with people. I used to 'stylist hop' because I was: a) not happy with my hair b) felt the conversations were super forced c) appointments took wayyyyy too long & the stylist would overbook. Well, in Colleen I've found the perfect trifecta - I literally have the healthiest /best hair of my life, I love going in to see her/ the conversations are so fun (so is the wine they offer lol), and she takes time to discuss my hair goals / what's realistic for getting there, AND I'm not there for an entire day- she's on top of her stuff! I've never had more compliments on my hair, nor have I ever loved my style this much. If you're looking for a fab place for not just a haircut but an experience, look no further than R. Collective & Colleen :)

This was not only frustrating but particularly a big issue since most decent salons are booked up in advance and they are closed on Sundays AND I was leaving for a 2-week vacation on Monday. So I was freaking. I didn't want to spend an arm and a leg either. I called a few other salons and of course, nobody could accommodate. I then called Aqua and even though they were extremely busy...they were able to fit me in. I actually explained what happened to the receptionist (seriously love him) and he immediately felt my pain and said that they could get me in right away. so five minutes after calling I was in my car and on my way. My stylist was Holly and she was great. I didn't get a cut, just color, but she did an awesome job at executing what I wanted. She was so gentle and sweet and I will definitely be coming back to see her. Aqua saved the day and I didn't spend any more than I wanted to. Going forward, Aqua will be my new go to salon! Their customer service was on point - again shout out to the fabulous receptionist.

Went here to get a cut and trim for my husband, he likes a bit longer on top, short on the sides…read moreand neat around his ears. 10% off if you check-in for any salon service. Holly cut my husband's hair. She seemed nice, was chatty at the beginning and end and concentrated during the cut. The wash and cut took about 30 minutes. It also cost $30. Tips have to to be given in cash, rather annoying since I am not one to ever carry around cash and don't want to be paying $3 to use an ATM machine, which is ornamental, as it does not work. The top was nicely trimmed. I did have to clean the sideburn on his left cheek and around his ears on the right side of too. The attention to detail needs a bit of work.

The products she used were nice and not overpriced at all, and she didn't do the super hard sell which I really appreciated. It made her seem so authentic and trustworthy.

I found The Hair We Share is still collecting human hair, making wigs in the US, giving them to cancer kids (not sold.... GIVEN) and never selling the hair for profit. Checked all the boxes. Courtney was thrilled to remove roughly 9-12 inches of hair (it's longer in the back) / 1.4 lbs of hair from my situation. As always, thrilled with the results and the blast I had in her chair.

Her daughters, Quill and Gwen, work alongside her, and they're just as gifted and personable. You can feel the family pride in the place, and it makes every visit feel personal. The rest of the team is outstanding too. What sets Chemistry apart is how seriously they take education. Morgan mentors her stylists through weekly classes and a structured career-growth program, and brings in national and international educators. You can see it in the results: everyone is polished, current, and confident. They listen, give honest advice, and deliver cuts that still look great weeks later. I also love that they do things responsibly, with clean, sustainable products and a recycling program that keeps nearly all of the salon's waste out of landfills. It's a premium salon worth every penny. If you want a haircut done right by people who treat you like family, Chemistry Salon is the place. Highly recommend!

I feel like it's pretty common to think you're gambling when you're going to a Drybar, but the salon had quite a few people in there and everyone's hair looked amazing. She did a phenomenal job of asking if there was a special event, and recommending styles based on that and my outfit. Also really wanted to highlight that I get nervous getting blowouts as someone with pretty curly hair as I've left salons in the past with poofy hair, so I made sure to mention it when making an appointment over the phone and was happy to hear that they had quite a few people that could work with textured hair! I added on the liquid glass smoothing sealant as well, and could definitely feel a difference! The entire staff was incredible, will definitely be back!
