Our first choice for special hair for a special occasion! I had no idea of what I wanted for a formal evening, but Beth had great vision and execution. Beth also mastered gorgeous curls in my daughter's very long and hard to curl hair that lasted all night! Ask for Beth!!! read more

I had an AMAZING experience at Image Is.... salon!! I called them to make an appointment (spoke with Kelly, who was very nice), and they were able to schedule me within the next hour. I showed up, was offered a drink, and within 5 minutes was introduced to my stylist, Nina. She was super sweet, very personable, and gave me a great cut! The prices are on par with salon haircut pricing.... in fact, I spent less there than I have at the last few places I went to, and actually left with a haircut I like! I will definitely be going back!! read more

This is my new retreat! The level of customer service is second to none! I have my mani/pedi's done here and will continue to do so.

I switched salons and I saw great reviews from this salon on yelp before I left especially with Beth. So I decided to book my appointment with Beth and I couldn't be any happier with how everything turned out. I walked in and the receptionists and Beth were so welcoming. Since it was my first time at the salon she took me around the whole salon and showed me everything. She was so genuinely nice and I was only hoping everything would turn out great with my hair. I showed Beth pictures of the hair style I wanted and we finally picked up a picture that would look best on myself. Before we even started I really appreciated how she went over the pricing. I've been to sooooo many different hair stylists and I have never been in love with how it turned out and it was never on point on want I wanted. Beth NAILED IT the balayage. I am so impressed with her work and how much time she spent on it to make it perfectly what I wanted. I really trusted her and she couldn't have done it any better. I would totally recommend for you to get your hair done with Beth!! Couldn't be happier! read more

Image Is Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Timonium, Maryland

See all

I have been going to Kaila about twice a year for a few years now to get my hair cut, colored and styled and she is amazing! I briefly describe what I'd like and she always does a great job so I never have to worry or be nervous. The salon is super cute and clean and everyone is pretty friendly. The owner usually walks around to check on everyone which is nice. I've gotten manicures and pedicures here too and they're also great! The only downside is gratuity is cash only and I never carry cash so I either have to remember to stop at the bank before my appointment or walk to the ATM in the liquor store down a few doors down. Regardless, overall a great salon and experience. read more

I love this salon and feel very fortunate I just happened upon it via Yelp. Being new to the area, I needed a hair salon. After reviewing online reviews about the salon and BETH, I decided to give it a try. Everyone at the salon is super nice--by far the nicest I've come across in a salon. Atmosphere is relaxing, love the yellow room with complimentary coffee and flavored tea. Beth is fantastic. Color looks fabulous and the cut is one of the best I've had. I have fine hair and Beth was able to cut it in such a way that I now have hair with more bounce and thickness. Parking is easy and location easy to get to. PS My boyfriend now also goes to Beth--and he's even pickier than I am with his haircuts! read more

Friday was my first time at "Image Is...Salon." After going to another salon for over 25 years it's very hard to change. Beth greeted me at the door and showed me around the salon, introducing me to people along the way. She explained the rewards points to me in detail. Beth really listened to what I wanted and needed. I didn't change too much but the coloring and cut were exactly what I wanted. I was very happy with my first experience and already booked my appointment for next time. read more

My sister went here for a triangular uppercut, showed the hairdresser what she wanted and everything, the lady shaves off half my sisters head and gives her the most uneven pattern, made her cry. Unless you are going for something extremely simple, stay away. read more

The only reason why I'm giving them 4 stars instead of 5 is because there was no one at the front desk to assist me when I walked in, it was lunch time. Ann did a great job, no complaints. She was accurate, asked what I like and I loved that there was communication about what I like and was expecting. The staff was extremely friendly and apologetic for not being at the desk when I walked in, she was finishing lunch. Will definitely return for another amazing nail service with Ann. read more

So happy with all of my experiences at Image Is so far. I've had 3 services done with Beth so far (a cut, balayage, and full highlights) and she is amazing at what she does! She really takes the time to listen to what you want done with your hair. I totally trust her and I will continue to come back to her for any of my hair needs! Thank you so much Beth! You make me feel and look fabulous. read more

Image Is Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Timonium, Maryland

Extremely talented group of ladies at this salon! I have been coming here for over 7 years for all of my cut, color, and waxing needs. Several of the girls through out those years have cut and colored my hair and all have done phenomenal jobs. From the moment you walk in, every person you come in contact with has a smile on their face and makes you feel at home. Shout out to all the ladies who make me look and feel beautiful inside and out! The salon is decor is very tranquil and the space is superbly clean. They frequently have sales on products and deals on services. Most of my favorite pieces of jewelry come from the selection offered at the salon. A big shoutout to owner Michele for having the most badass salon in Baltimore with the most amazing women, providing a comfortable place to exchange bizarre stories, and most importantly for enduring my screams from my first ever bikini wax. You ladies rock :) TIP: if on a budget , ask for services from one of the apprentices , Chelsey. The cut and color I received from her was so perfectly executed that I scheduled my next appointment with her. Very talented hair stylist! read more

First time client last night. The team at Image Is gets a A+ for customer service. I was greeted warmly upon my arrival by the receptionist. It was a very friendly, welcoming feeling. Seriously, like they were actual happy to be of service. What took me to this salon was an Amazon local deal for a facial. The facial with Debbie was incredible. I think the full price would be $80, and it was more than worth it. I can't wait to go back. As a first time client, I was supposed to get a gift bag. Apparently, someone forgot it as I didn't even know about it. They took the time to call me and apologize for not providing it to me. So, again, I can't say enough about their customer service. Also, the salon is organized neatly, and it's spotless. read more

I was desperate to find someone to do my hair on short notice for a photo shoot. Not only did Michelle open her salon at 8am on a Sunday for me, but her stylist Chelsey did the most incredible job on my hair. Everyone I talked to during the whole process was so friendly and happy to accommodate. I would recommend Image Is... Salon to ANYONE! I might even drive the hour from Rockville to get my hair done her regularly. So happy with the customer service and the beautiful work! Thanks, Chelsey and Michelle! read more

This place is amazing, I was very sad to leave it when I moved away from Baltimore! I went to Jenn every month for about 2 years for brow waxes. Besides being the best waxer I have ever been to (my skin was never red at all...how does she do that?!) she is also an extremely nice person. She's always fun to talk to and she had lots of great suggestions while I was planning my wedding! I saw Christine for haircuts and highlights and she always did a great job. She also did my hair for my wedding and it was absolutely beautiful! I highly recommend this place. Everyone is extremely nice and they do great work! read more

Great service. Everyone was so nice and they really make you feel at home. My hairstylist was excellent. She listened and did exactly what I wanted. They have an great new client package with coupons. I will definitely be going back! read more

Christine has been a god send to my hair. I always leave her chair happier than I'd expected. Her talent with color is undeniable. The entire salon is staffed with friendly knowledgeable people who don't try to intimidate you like at other salons. The prices are reasonable. The environment is comfortable - I've even fallen asleep during a shampoo before. I love everything about this place, and I'm so happy to have a trusted stylist again. I book my appointments in advance so I have no worries when I tell EVERYONE to go see Christine. :) read more

Beautiful. clean, pride of ownership and professional! So pleased I discovered this salon thanks to a "Living Social" special online. I am so happy with the cut and color I had today and appreciate all the time that Danielle spent with me and I liked that she cared about my opinion regarding the style and color tone. Now that I have found Image Is AND Danielle, I will be back --- in fact I already booked my next appt! Thank you, Danielle, for working your magic on me! read more

I have been going to Image Is Salon for quite a few years now and I have had nothing but great experiences. If you want a great manicure/shellac/acrylics you definitely want to go to Kelly. I have been to many different nail salons and haven't gotten a better one so far! She is very professional and warm and all of her customers love her. I get my hair done with Christine. I was hesitant to make a change after my stylist I was with for years moved away. As someone who doesn't like change...it is hard to start new :0). In the end I am so glad I did because I absolutely love her. I haven't left the salon yet unhappy with my hair. Christine is very knowledgeable with trends and techniques and she is a sweetheart! I highly recommend!!! read more

I spent the afternoon at Image Is on Saturday with Beth Michelson. She is a seasoned stylist that creates a beautiful outcome. I have been coming to Beth for a few years and am always happy with her suggestions and the quality of her work. Both my daughter and I depend on Beth and she delivers. Great customer service, friendly and caring! read more

Awesome salon experience! From the greeting you receive when you walk through the door to the decor and the fabulous service- it is a truly luxurious experience. Christine's expertise transforms my hair every time. I have never been happier with my color and style! read more

No words can describe how happy I was with my experience at Image Is! Michelle, the manager, is amazing. She took the time to spend 20 minutes on the phone with me while scheduling my first appointment, to discuss my upcoming color correction (my blonde hair had been turned an awful silver color at another salon!) She recommended an apprentice, Chelsey, to help me fix my hair. While I was nervous at first, Chelsey immediately put me at ease with her funny personality and her willingness to reach out to other stylists for their opinions on the best way to correct my hair color. She was so patient and made the time go by quickly! I am so glad my hair is back to my normal color, and I can't wait to return regularly to Image Is for all of my hair needs. Everyone there is so nice and truly makes you feel like home! read more

I have been coming to Image Is covering two locations, and that is a long time. My stylist is Adele, and she has done miraculous work with my hair. I border on white hair and am no ready to go all white or even grey. So the highlights and low lights are perfect, always. I love Image Is and everyone who works there. So friendly and have you and your satisfaction first hand always. read more

Image Is Salon was a fantastic choice for my bridal updo and bridesmaids' hair. Michele was helpful and communicative leading up to the big day, making planning my wedding from a different state much easier. She wa just as delightful in person when we finally met! I had a fabulous hair trial with Katie where she created to different styles for me in one sitting! For the wedding, I booked Katie and Jamie to tackle myself and my nine bridesmaids. I was afraid that it would take eons to attend to my small army of bridesmaids but Katie and Jamie knocked it out of the park in even less time than we thought! Each girl got a spectaular and unique hair style. My friend with short hair mentioned that she didn't think her hair was long enough for an updo, to which Katie replied "Challenge accepted." And sure enough she created a gorgeous updo! Jamie showed true artistic talent with a stunning fishtail braid done on one of my bridesmaids who will be getting married in Atlanta. My friend lamented that she had already booked her hair person and couldn't fly Jamie down for her own big day. And of course, my hair was a dream. Katie created an effortless bohemian yet classic updo that accomodated my baby's breath crown. She listened to my every note and happily made even the most miniscule adjustments until it was perfect. I danced all night and it stayed put while not looking like it had been shellacked to my head! My bridesmaids and I had an amazing experience with Katie and Jamie and I would absolutely recommend Image Is Salon to any bride. read more

I went to Image Is... and got partial highlights with cut and style using a LivingSocial deal. With Livingsocial/Groupon deals, you typically get an appointment with newer or less experienced stylists and, at other salons, I have felt at times, also a somewhat lower level of service than full-paying customers. Amira did my hair and it was one of the best experiences I have had getting my hair colored. When I arrived and told her it was my first time visiting, she showed me around the the salon and explained all of the services they offer. I felt like a truly valued customer, despite it being my first visit (with a discount coupon, no less). The stylists really seem to enjoy working at this salon, and Amira answered all of my questions about the highlighting process and what products were used when/why, etc. It did take a bit longer than it probably should have - I was there around 2.5 hours, but I got at least double the highlights as at other salons where I've gotten partials done. Also, I told Amira I had an event that evening, so instead of just blowing my hair out after the cut, she went over it with a curling iron and made it look absolutely gorgeous. On top of all that, since it was my first visit, I got 25% off any products (I purchased a travel size hair spray for doing my own curls at home) and a goodie bag from the salon including coupons for 30% off any service I hadn't received (so anything but partial highlights), as well as one for a free brow wax, face-framing highlights, or conditioning treatment with any paid service. The customer service and attention to detail at this salon so impressed me that I will definitely be back! read more

Just moving to the area, I came to the decision it was time to stop traveling an hour to get my hair done. I went onto yelp and "Image Is.... Salon" had nothing but amazing reviews! At first I was a little nervous because it was a big pick and I wanted a successful trip, but Image is stayed strong to their amazing reviews. I walked in with amazing service and happy and welcoming people! Kaila, the lady who cut my hair, gave me a tour and introduced me to the variety of services they provided. I just got a hair cut, but Kaila was amazing!!! She helped me so much with tips and hair knowledge and you can tell she loves what she does! She did an amazing job on my long bob and took the time to show me how to get volume and do a soft curl! To top it off, she had such a fun spirt and amazing personality to socialize with! At the end I got to meet the owner and she was just as awesome, sweet, and informative! 5 stars Image is... Salon! I can't wait for my next appointment! read more

Courteous and professional staff; Adele gave me beautiful balayage highlights and I will be returning for more services.

I had made the decision to change salons after 15 years of going to the same salon, which was really too far away from my house. I am so glad I went to see Beth Scherr Michelson who I was referred to by my best friends. Beth gave me color I never knew I could have and she provided an awesome cut too. Beth took the time to understand what I wanted in my color. BEST STYLIST EVER!!! Everyone at the salon was so nice and professional. I loved the coffee/tea bar which really is a nice touch I've not had before. I would highly recommend going to Image Is.. Salon! read more

First time to the salon and I am delighted with the color and cut done by Beth. Salon is friendly, clean, and very professional. Some of the best shampoo girls I had ever had. Jessica and Sophia you were amazing. Thank you Beth for taking the time and creating a new style and color. I am very pleased and will be returning to the salon! read more

I came in on a Saturday as a walk in, looking for a mani pedi. Based on the number of people there, I didn't think they'd have space for me, but fortunately they did. I was paired with Amy, a senior technician, and all she told me was that since she was senior her prices were higher than standard prices. I was ok with that, and we agreed to move forward. The service was lovely and the pedicure was fine, but the manicure was not. The manicure chipped on two fingers after three days, which has never happened to me before. My last manicure from another salon lasted THREE weeks with no blemishes - not a gel manicure, a regular one. Needless to say, chipping after three days is absurd, especially after paying $70 for the whole package. Amy also left polish on my skin around my nails saying that it would wash off. That's true, it will, but other manicurists pay attention to making the polish look amazing. I had hoped my experience would be better but it wasn't and I wasn't pleased. Despite the packet of discounts I received as a new client, I won't be returning. read more

Have visited twice for haircut and lip wax. Very pleasant atmosphere; unpretentious, friendly staff; talented technicians. Only complaint--VERY strong odor of acetone throughout the salon both times. read more

I called this salon (based on Yelp reviews, of course) on a Monday morning after a catastrophic visit to another salon the Friday prior. I had been in seclusion all weekend, it was THAT awful. The wonderful receptionist said that I could come in an hour later for an appointment with Staci, who was going to be able to fix everything. And she absolutely did. Staci and everyone there were really professional, but really friendly and so easy to deal with. It was such a pleasure. I have been back 3 times since and each visit leaves me even more impressed! Thank you Image Is and Staci for coming to my rescue. You are AWESOME with color and cutting; the perfect combination for me! read more

I got my hair done here about a year ago for a friends wedding and had a really good experience. When I was looking to make a drastic change to my hair (I chopped off a lot of length), I decided to go back. Best decision I've ever made. I've been going there regularly since to see Shannon, and it (and she) is the absolute best. Shannon is so kind and personable, not to mention fantastic with hair. I brought in pictures and she worked with me to match the style I wanted in a way that was flattering to me. The prices are especially good for the quality of service you get. I can't recommend Image Is...enough! read more

I had my first visit for color and highlights, and my experience was great! Kaila is very knowledgable at what she does. The atmosphere is comfortable and professional and I will definitely be back for another visit. read more

I am the sad tale of someone who overpaid for a bad service at another salon... But then I step into Image Is and my hair has new life! Kaila took the time in my color consult to peruse my Pintest for a solution that would make the most sense for ME. Once we found our game plan, execution day was a complete joy. Her coloring skills were above and beyond what I had hoped for and I am so happy with the outcome. Thank you Kaila! See you in 6 weeks! :) read more
