She took her time to make sure she knew exactly what colors I wanted. She made sure she only took as many inches as I asked to be cut off I highly recommend her, she is personable, takes her time, uses the best products and is willing to go the extra mile to make sure you get what you want. Kathy will be my stylist from here on out. If you are looking for a beautician Kathy is your girl. The business is professional, clean and friendly.

She recently…read moresold the salon to another stylist Kathy and I was very unsure about going to a different person well I went last Wednesday 1/28/21 and big mistake!! She knew what products to use on me and how long to process my hair and the formula to use on my long hair.. however she left me under the dryer for an hour which should have been 15 minutes and she didn't even check on me the whole time under the dryer..needless to say I've lost 6 inches of hair and she kept blaming it on everything but the facts HER!! she did it and another client saw this as well and even vocalized her opinion because she was as shocked as myself* Kim is and was the BEST....and this woman's terrible I mean not even an apology as she brushed my hair and it just kept falling out which is a big deal especially to a woman. I'm totally DISGUSTED and I want to warn people b4 they put their hair in her hands she's not very personable and she obviously does not care and I'm devastated.. this place will go under with her in charge and with kim. Gone.

This was THE WORST experience I've ever had at any hair salon in 40 years of having my hair done!…read moreThe stylist was BEYOND rude. I apologized for being 10 minutes late for my appointment and her response was silence..other than answering my questions In curt yes or no answers she would not converse with me. I showed her a picture of what I wanted done ( a hairstyle I had had in the past) and to match my roots that were growing out. She took it upon herself to lighten my roots which only made it look like I needed my roots done. She refused to cut my hair the shorter length I requested. When she reluctantly waxed my eyebrows the right had no arch where the left was overly arched. I told her about my disappointed with all services and the way I had been treated and that my services needed to be corrected. This was her direct quote " how about I just doby charge you and you never come back" I agreed and asked to speak with her supervisor she told me the receptionist was her supervisor. When I asked to speak with the owner she said the owner would call me on. Monday. I spoke to the owner the following morning who stated both that the stylist never said the above quote and then threatened to call the police over the bill. After the owner continued screaming at me that my hair was fine. I reminded her she wasn't at the salon and didn't see the damage. I offered to send her pictures of what her stylist did and she refused. The call ended with her screaming louder at me repeating what her stylist said.." don t pay and don't come back.as she continued screaming insults I ended the call...enough said. Stay away from this poor quality salon and worse human beingsl

After a bad haircut last summer, I decided to give a new salon a try. When I called ahead, I made…read moresure to mention that I have thick hair, and I do feel like that helped set expectations and contributed to a smoother, more respectful experience. The service included a wash, which I appreciated. Sam was friendly and took the time to explain the products she used and why, which I found really helpful. She also added a hair mask after I mentioned my hair was very dry, which was a nice touch. I also liked that I could pay and tip with a card. Overall, it was a decent experience, but I'm not sure I would return. The service felt a bit pricey for the level of precision in the cut.

Ugh, the worst. I've actually had a gift card to here sitting in my wallet for years that I'll…read morenever use. I had been here twice: once for a manicure and once for a haircut. The manicure was the worst. The woman cut my nails all lopsided and awkward. The paint job, a french manicure, must have been modeled after a very cheap part of France. They didn't even let us dry out nails before we left, so of course they got messed up. Sadly, the haircut story is worse. After cutting my hair about 2.5 inches shorter than I requested (leaving me looking like a mushroom), the stylist told me she didn't have time to dry or style it (although my appointment was for a cut and style). She was the worst. THE WORST! When I went up front to pay, they still had me pay for a "style" job despite me standing there with dripping hair while my too- busy "stylist" sat texting on her phone. Apparently, they didn't have pricing for "just a cut." I'll drive downtown, east, or north before coming here again.

I recently moved to Cincinnati from Los Angeles and had a hard time finding someone that was…read morecapable of doing natural hair (wash, blowdry, press/flatiron) as I do not have a relaxer and have never had one. As I started getting recommendations from friends and family and began making phone calls, it became very apparent that no one understood how I wanted my hair done, knew how to do it nor was it their specialty. I also had a few failed attempts at allowing people to do my hair only to end up very disappointed. However, I got a referral to see Annetta at Escapades and I haven't looked back since. Upon arriving at Escapades, I was impressed with the layout of the salon and the professionalism of the staff. Once I met Annetta, I knew I was going to end up happy because she took the time to talk to me which was very important. She did not try to come across as if her way was best as she was open to hearing what has and hasn't worked in the past, which was very important to me. She truly wanted to have an understanding of what I wanted. I have very thick long hair and it is important that my hair remain healthy, which was something that Annetta mentioned right away. I have not been disappointed with how my hair turns out each time. Annetta uses high quality products which aid in promoting healthy hair, she recommends treatments that coincide with the weather and/or are needed at the time and she ALWAYS takes her time. She does not stack appointments where you are sitting in the salon for hours on end. I'm typically out of the salon within 2 hours max which is a big deal to me. I feel that Annetta is equally as good as my last stylist in Los Angeles and was a very rare find. I recommend her to anyone that ever compliments or asks about my hair. I honestly don't know what I would do without her. So if you are looking for someone that can do natural hair, looking to grow your relaxer out or just want someone that will take their time and do a great job, give Annetta at Escapades a try.

Well, I found out A LOT!! Two sisters (Ashley and Andrea) co-own this place and started it a little under a year ago. All of their products are organic and you can tell they really know their stuff when it comes to body grooming and care. They offer tons of services, including but not limited to: Waxing, haircuts (for men and women), mani's, pedi's, massages, etc. My cousin and I had the pleasure of getting our nails done by the owners themselves and they are absolutely the cutest, sweetest ladies ever! Super personable and it's obvious they care a lot about their customers and the services they offer, as well as products sold!! Prices are pretty typical for a salon atmosphere, and absolutely 100% worth it. I will be coming back for more! Also, check out the group-on they have right now for a shellac manicure for under $18!!
