I wish I could give less than a one star review. Received haircut from Morgan who according to the website specializes in cutting men's hair. I don't think she listened to a word I said. Requested back at the top of the collar. It's 2 inches above the collar. I look like I just left boot camp. (By the way I'm 73),No idea what the problem is. Hard of hearing? Wax in her ears? Or just crap for brains. Do NOT schedule with this stylist. You will be disappointed. read more

I made an appt to remove gel polish, get a regular manicure and a paraffin treatment to alleviate the drying caused by gel color removal. The appointment was March 18 2026 w Abby, who is an epic artist w polish application. She, unfortunately was on a long vacation when I went in a week ago concerned about the condition my nails were in as a result of the gel removal. I understand that everyone responds differently to any chemical treatment so I have no issue with Abby at all. However, my nails and clear polish applied after the paraffin started bubbling the same afternoon. I gave the benefit of the doubt thinking that it's something I can handle w an emery board and moisturizer. Nope nope nope. 3 weeks later my nails were shredding as soon as they breached the nail bed- they are weak, splitting painfully into the nail bed, keep shredding and need constant filing, clipping, etc. when I went in to ask how I could fix the issue, I was passed around to 3 people- none of whom were nail techs. They refunded $19-a random amount and not close to half of the cost. I was told by Madison in management that this is normal - and to use a product called Nail Envy. A week later, 34 days after the original appointment, my nails are still shredding and splitting. It is like acid was applied. The result is that I will not be able to get a manicure until the nails completely grow out - MONTHS from now. I know if Abby would have been present, she would have had better advice and would have repaired the nails to the best of her ability. Result - I spent $ for a manicure w paraffin so didn't cut corners, and will have hideous painful nails until they grow out. I'm upset that a nail tech wasn't available to advise, I was told I'd be called in a couple of days to see how things were and to get an informed answer, which didn't happen. I bought the Nail Envy strengthener and their cuticle oil as recommended by Grok(!). $36. I have had nothing but great experiences w Impressions until this debacle. I don't know what to do - management is inadequate for problem solving. read more

Just randomly booked for a brow wax. Loved the location, love the decoration and Becky did amazing. Looking forward to coming for nails and hair next! read more

After moving to the Milwaukee area from Boston, I truly struggle to find a hair salon and stylist until I met Lauren at Impressions! I could not find someone who specialized in the Keratin Complex treatments in the Milwaukee area. A few salons did Brazilian Blowouts but I was looking for Keratin specifically. I found Lauren over Instagram and was so happy to finally find someone. I got a traditional keratin treatment and haircut. Her prices are very reasonable and she did a fantastic job. She was extremely personable and knowledgeable. I really enjoyed meeting with her and loved the results! She also recommended a few products after our appointment that I purchased and have loved so far. Prior to Lauren, I've had the same hair stylist for 20 years so I was very particular in what I was looking for in a salon / stylist. when I moved and took a lot of time researching and finding someone I could trust. Impressions has a great setup and offers so many services (and has a really cute boutique as well!) I highly recommend coming to Impressions and scheduling an appointment with Lauren if you're interested in Keratin, lived in color or a haircut. I can't wait to be back again in a few months! read more

I just want to add an update, I spoke to the owner about the services I recently had and she's an absolute gem! The atmospher, cleanlines, friendlyness, and professionalism is top notch! I had a very positive experience! after speaking to the owner she was thankful for pointing these things out and said the best part of being part of the team is continuing education and skills with all their new and existing talents! I hope the best success for impressions! I had gotten waxed today getting a full leg wax and Brazilian. I have been getting waxed every 4-6 weeks for the last 9 years and I've even waxed myself. This service usually takes under 55 mins and 95-99% of the hair is removed. Today the service took just about 2 hours and I was left was patches of hair all over my legs! update: she will continue her education and get more experience and continue growing!!! read more

I've gotten my hair cut and colored here with good results. I have very specific ideas about how I want my hair cut, and both Taite and Becky have listened and cut my hair in exactly the right way. Taite is also a very good colorist. Having moved here from Chicago, I'm impressed with how calm and quiet this salon often is. It's large and light, and very spacious--all positive. I also like the website layout, with its profiles of the stylists. Clients can get services at different price points, and figure out which stylists they can afford. This salon strikes me as well run. There is a lot of appealing shop merchandise in the waiting area--a good assortment of costume jewelry and cute handbags. Good to know if you need a last-minute accessory read more

I had the WORST hair cut ever! If I could give zero stars I would. My hair was cut all around the top with the sides definitely different short lengths as well! And the bottom half of my hair was long. I even had a photo for the stylist to go by. She needs more training for sure. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS SALON when there are so many to choose from in the Milwaukee area. I will not be returning there. Especially for the amount I paid for the cut. read more

My boys have been getting their hair cut here for many years. From young kids where they got the Monday night school special until now - where we squeeze it in o er their college breaks home. We try to stay with the same stylists, but people obviously move on. I try to stick with the higher star stylists so we know we have efficiency and people that get what my boys are asking for. When we moved here, we tried this place. I had no idea that we would stay for the lang haul. It's a keeper. Professional, well priced, clean.... And they have a super cute shop inside with gifts/ things for yourself. I have shopped here for friend's birthday presents bc they have such nice things to sell. read more

I'm very saddened to leave a bad review, unfortunately my most recent experience with Aimee was so bad that it's worth a negative review. I'm a 30 y/o male growing my hair out and was referred by not only research but also the last stylist that cut my hair here said I should cut my hair about every 3 months for healthy growth. (Also my girlfriend loves Haley at this place.) When I arrived for my appointment and explained that I wanted to grow my hair out and was told to get it cut every three months she tried to talk me out of the haircut. I was very confused. As a business I feel like she should have tried to sell a haircut no matter what. As a customer I was very dissatisfied and felt as though she was just trying to get out of working (I don't want to make assumptions but that's how it came across because she was also presenting herself as she just rolled out of bed). She cut my hair for no longer than one minute, but washed, massaged, and blew dry my hair for more than 20 minutes. I strongly recommend impressions as a business but my most recent experience with Aimee was terrible. -Luke Biedermann. read more

Taite did such an excellent job! She was attentive, receptive, and professional. I have natural brown hair and she made my blonde highlights look so natural while keeping my hair healthy-looking (not dried out). Highly recommend and will definitely be coming back! Overall great experience and friendly staff. read more

Very disappointed with the recent experience my 16 yr old had there. She saved her money, called ahead to asked for a quote for a cut and highlights and the estimate she was given was $140-150. She got there and the stylist tried to charge her $250, claiming she can change the amount however she likes. My wife had to call and speak to the manager and my poor daughter walked away with a simple cut, no highlights. Would no recommend with the many other great salons around. read more

Always a nice place to get my hair taken care of. I like the staff and they seem friendly whenever i go there

I love coming here- the atmosphere is very peaceful and everyone is friendly. Jamie does my shake for me and she is very detail oriented and fun to chat with. Definitely recommend! read more

great place to get your hair done. good prices and a very modern and comfortable ambiance vibe. love this place and highly recommend

I've been going to Impressions for as long as I can remember and I absolutely love it! I go to Kelsey for cut and color and she is the best! Even when I was living in Chicago I would travel back on the weekends to get my hair done by her. Kelsey is so great at what she does and I always leave the appointment loving my hair. I have had so many compliments on my color and it's all thanks to Kelsey! I'm so happy to have found my go-to stylist who I know I can count on. Seriously cannot say enough good things about Kelsey -- she's a keeper! read more

I get balayage and cuts done by Kelsey. I love the way my hair looks after she does it so much that right after I got engaged the first thing I did was book her to come do my hair in Michigan at my wedding! One of the things I love about her is that her instagram is really up to date and you can actually book through there. It also makes me feel really good about my hair when she has time and wants to take some pictures after for her social media- it shows that she is really proud of her work and helps me leave even more confident! Thank you Kelsey for 3 amazing years of balayage!!! read more

Impressions - Perfect balayage and beach waves by Kelsey! - Nail Salons Near Me - Mequon, Wisconsin

I came into this place to get a pedicure. When I walked in I was ignored by the lady at the front desk. She was looking down when I came in and looked up at me and immediately put her head down again. Another lady came behind the desk and started to sit down. Suddenly, she asked if she could help me. I told her that I wanted a pedicure, she looked at her computer and immediately told there was know one available. Yes, I'm a African American Male and it was obvious that they didn't want to service me! Too bad for them because I tip very well! read more

I am so happy with my Impressions experience. I booked a last minute mani/pedi. I can honestly say Jamie gave me the best manicure and pedicure I've ever had. She didn't rush and did an amazing job. I'm always nervous about getting my nails done. I don't often get manicures, so I'm very picky about the quality. From the moment I walked in everyone was friendly and polite. Paul at the front desk was very helpful. I will definitely be going to impressions again. Thank you impressions for some much needed me time and a great experience. read more

Being a longtime patron of Impressions, it was only natural that I have my wedding updo and my bridesmaids' hair done there. Once we set the wedding date, one of the first appointments nailed down was Impressions. We seriously booked our appointments in January knowing we wanted Impressions to be part of the day. A few weeks before the wedding, I scheduled my hair and makeup test with Sarah, bridal hair and makeup guru for the salon. I brought in images of what I wanted. She worked from those images and my makeup description to create a preliminary style. On the day of the wedding, I had a few mods to the hairstyle and makeup. Sarah rolled with the changes very well. She even pulled a few bobby pins when the hair wasn't just right. She's a perfectionist to a tee with bridal hair. She's also incredibly sweet and saw me struggling with a rehearsal dinner, riesling induced hangover. She kindly let me eat Saltines and drink Sprite while she did my hair. I can't say enough good things about how awesome my hair was for the wedding. It was exactly what I envisioned for the wedding. The makeup was equally perfect. All of my bridal party raved about how awesome Impressions is as a salon. They had a wonderful time working with the stylists. Both girls looked amazing in their updo's and makeup. We had a great, wedding morning at Impressions with their wonderful staff. I can't thank Impressions enough for their hard work on my wedding day as well as for many excellent years of service. read more

Not a big fan. I really did wanted to like this place just because I've been searching so long for a stylist I can go to more than once but unfortunately that wasn't the case. Booked a haircut and color. I supposedly got the top stylist but wasn't crazy about the haircut. As for color it was OK not great. I did the balayage. So after the appointment my stylist recommended to achieve the color I wanted I would have to come back. My hair was dark and I wanted to get close to light ash brown/blondish as possible. So I took her advice and booked for the next day but with another person since she was too pricey for me the second time around ($180)!! For the second time around( which seriously I don't understand why would a stylist recommend back to back bleaching) I was desperate enough to do it because I had an important weekend and had no time to wait! bad idea!! Talked to the stylist and told her exactly what I wanted and of course I knew that it was impossible to achieve my color within two appointments but did not expect it to look worse! I just wanted her to go over the existing balayage but somehow she added new ones and my hair ended being 3-4 different shades of brassiness! I thought OK she was going to put toner on and it will be OK but she used the blue shampoo thing to keep the blonde from being brassy but that obviously did not help. I should've stuck with the previous stylist bc at the end it was about the same price! She charge me $34 for the blue toner/shampoo. I end up paying close to $300 for the two days. I left feeling mislead and unsatisfied. I looked at myself in the car mirror and was crying. My hair was so brassy. I wish she could've used a different color toner. I seriously was embarrassed of my hair that I had to put it up in a bun and ran to walgreens to grab box color to tone it down! Nice salon but not for color! Especially if you have dark hair. read more

Impressions is awesome! I have heard nothing but good things about this salon and spa and have experienced nothing but the best treatment here. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Plus they have lots of great jewelry and little gifts in the front of the store. I would definately recommend this place to anyone looking for a salon or spa! read more

I have been going to Kelsey at Impressions for several years now. Not only is she friendly and professional, Kelsey makes wonderful recommendations for cut, color, and product options that best suit my hair. I would recommend Kelsey to anyone looking for a stylist! read more

I have been going to Impressions for about 2 and a half years and have always left feeling beautiful with my cut and color. The kicker is, I was living in Minnesota at the time and I totally commuted for the hair services at Impressions. THAT's how awesome it was. I have been a platinum blonde for about 2 years now, and I had the color initially done at Impressions. It was beautiful off the bat and so I kept it up at impressions too. Once I got the color done in Minneapolis and it was..not right. I went back to Impressions and the color correction was amazing. (My hair had a weird gray-purple tint to it before...scary.) That's what keeps me coming back. I have had a facial, nail services as well as hair services and even a massage at Impressions. The attention to detail is apparent and they have always taken their time with me to make sure we are on the same page (which can be very tricky when you're getting a dramatic cut!) The front desk is attentive and welcoming and their boutique area is perfect for any last minute gifts you might need or some cute stuff for yourself. Only downside is sometimes the place can feel sort of busy, which can be tricky for some true relaxation. I would recommend this place for nail services and hair services rather than massages. I live in Salt Lake City now but when I visit the Milwaukee area again, Impressions will be one of the first stops I make! read more

I love Impressions! I have been going here for as long as I can remember. My hairdresser, Kelsey, is amazing. She listens to exactly what I want. My color and cut always come out better than expected. I am more than excited about my appointment on Saturday. The front desk staff are always warm and welcoming by offering me a drink right when I come in. The atmosphere is aesthetically pleasing and I always feel relaxed during my appointment. By far the best salon in the Milwaukee area! read more

I went in to have my hair colored and cut, I was figuring 80-120, no 189! Color was not what I wanted, I asked for ashy medium brown -- I got warm dark brown. I even came home with dye on my face. It was later fixed by another stylist and thankfully she did not get dye anywhere. I am glad that it was fixed, but I still did not have a good experience with this place. I will never go back with those prices! read more

As someone who never spent a lot of time doing my hair, I was ready for a fun change and Kelsey was the absolute best! Since my first coloring two years ago, I now color my hair regularly and LOVE it every single time I go in. Not only is Kelsey amazingly talented at hair color, she also recommends products to keep my hair healthy and color crisp, gives me curling and styling techniques during my appointments, and answers all of my hair questions via text. If you are looking for a stylist that goes above and beyond, I highly recommend Kelsey, my favorite hair guru! read more

Great service and atmosphere, and the staff is clearly among the best. Can't recommend Impressions enough!

Highly recommend Impressions! Claudia was amazing!!! Love my color, cut, and eyebrow wax :)

I have no interest trusting anyone but Impressions to cut my hair. Specifically, Madison. She has been doing my hair for a few years (many years now?), and even after moving out of the city, I will continue to go back to have her do my hair. read more

I love Impressions! My aunt used to work there and I have been familiar with it for a long time! I go to Leigh and she is beyond wonderful!! Every time I go in there she has new ideas and confidence in everything she does. I have tried many other places but I haven't found any place that is better! I have loved every cut and color that I have gotten there. Everyone in the salon is friendly and make sure you are comfortable while you are there. Highly recommend trying it out! read more

I am new to the area and had a hair emergency. I went to a different salon which left me with orange fried hair and a cut that they told me to come back to finish because they didn't' have time. Impressions FIXED everything! I was so impressed with the team work. Jaime, my main stylist,had 2 other girls help so I got exactly what I wanted and everything was fixed. Jaime made time for me in her busy schedule, I never felt rushed (she even gave me a killer head massage) , and she was so sweet. I really can't believe they fixed my awful hair without having to get a crop cut. They have earned my business for life! read more

Last week I walked in to Impressions with a serious color correction challenge - just the day before my hair had been destroyed by another salon... my roots were orange and I had streaks of grey / purple from a terrible bleach and toning job. It was my first time at Impressions and I had Sarah - not only did she totally fix my hair but the price was completely reasonable, especially given the complexity of the color correction. Even though I live in downtown Milwaukee and used to go to east side salons I'm planning on making the drive up to Mequon from now on because of what a great job she did. read more

I brought my 16 year old daughter in for a cut today. It was our first time to Impressions. It had been way too long since she had her hair cut and she was thinking she would take about 8 inches off and she would donate it. It ended up being 13. She (and I) love it! It looks so healthy and Jaime took her time to really do a great job. When we went up to pay Jaime informed us that because my daughter was donating her hair, her cut was free! We will be back! read more

I've been coming to Impressions for as long as I can remember. Even before I became a client, my stepmother and father would get their hair done there and I remember coming in with them. Eventually I started coming myself after my sister got a color and cut done by Madison and I loved it so much, I stared going. She always knows exactly what I want and I've never left unhappy after having my hair done by her. I recently got a wax done by one of the estheticians, Carla, and she was great as well. I'll be going back to her for a facial asap! I love the atmosphere. The staff is so friendly and they're all very relaxed and easy going. They're all so nice and it's such a great experience every time I go that I have no problem spending my money there. I'm more than happy to support their business! I'd come in more often if my budget would allow!! I love that they have a relaxed dress code and all the staff wears fun, stylish clothing - not all black like most places (how boring)! They use great products like Aveda, Redken, and Pureology (my personal favorite) and also carry all kinds of cute non-hair items like purses, scarves, jewelry, and even the cutest little iPod speakers. They play a great variety of music too! I honestly can't imagine going anywhere else! I've gone to other places over the years and even a couple since I started going to Impressions because I was able to get a deal or something but none of them even come close to Impressions! If you're looking for someone for hair, skin, nails, or massage, look no further, Impressions is the best of the best! read more

I have come here on multiple occasions over a 5 year period. Never stuck with 1 stylist however yesterday I got a trim, color touch up and shelac manicure done by Jamie. She did such a great job and fixed a mediocre highlight job I had done a few months ago. I went into the salon unhappy about my hair and she was able to help me pin point exactly what it was that she would need to do for me to be happy. I don't know much about hair so I really appreciate a stylist that isn't afraid to give suggestions and input. I would highly recommend going to Jamie she was so sweet and friendly and spent 4.5 hours with me (nails/cut/color)! Will def. go back to her, she stood out for me from all the previous stylists at impressions not to say anything negative about the other stylists i went to over the years at impressions but Jamie stands out! read more

Claudia did an AWESOME job on my shellac mani. It still looked perfect after 3 weeks (amazing); I only took it off because the outgrowth started to look silly. read more

I came here with my family to get pedicures and manicures before my wedding and it was quite the experience. Booking the appointment was fine, and check in was okay, but front desk staff weren't particularly friendly. When being seated for our nail appointments my niece put her hands on the manicure table to sit and it tipped over. Seemed like a faulty table, especially because it was one wheels. One nail technician was great in helping clean up, but the nail tech with my niece, who's 10 mind you, was very rude. She continued to be rude throughout the entire service. This was a special day for a 10 year old and the lady didn't talk to her at all and finished 15 minutes before everyone else. I cannot imagine her services were completed as they were supposed to be if it finished that early, and started late because of cleaning up the spills. My sister received a shellac manicure and it was incredibly sloppy. My mother and I had good services, but 2 out of 4 isn't that great in my mind. I wouldn't recommend going back personally, which really disappoints me. read more

My hairstylist is Angela and she's styled my hair for 6 years. I love the atmosphere, and the front desk is so welcoming.

I was very disappointed. I asked for low and high lights and got the impression that the stylist did not want to go through the hassle of doing that, so she just added more highlights. I was also charged $16.00 for a Restructure/Pureology Treatment and $115.00 for just more highlights. She shampooed my hair and applied cream rinse and before she dried my hair applied a spritz of something, so I'm not sure when the "treatment" was applied. I will not be coming back. I'm not "Impressed" with Impressions. read more

I've been to Impressions twice since the beginning of this year and have found myself disappointed both times. However, I do want to start off by pointing out that the salon has a great staff that seems very knowledgeable and polite, they always are able to get me in for an appointment when I call, and they offer student discounts on Mondays--all awesome! Unfortunately, the haircuts themselves really left me disappointed. Impressions has a tiered system, and stylists are on a level between 1 and 5, 5 being the highest/most expensive. Both of my haircuts were done by level 4 stylists. My first haircut was back in January, and I met with a male stylist that had been at Impressions for 10+ years. I have long hair that had not been cut in over a year, so I was well overdue to get a few inches taken off. I have had super short hair before, so I made sure to tell him I was fine with him taking off whatever he needed to, and that I wanted to get bangs. He seemed VERY cautious about taking off any length, and even more worried about cutting my bangs. I showed him how i part my hair far to the side so that the bangs sweep across my forehead, and he repeatedly parted from the middle, inching over, and cut the bangs very long--they were face-framing layers, not bangs. He also two over TWO HOURS to cut my hair, which, while I appreciate him taking his time, was kind of ridiculous for some smooth layers and bangs. He was trying out a new technique that gives hair lots of movement, but ultimately took way too long to execute and didn't really remove any of the split ends I wanted off. In the end, I left feeling like I'd hardly had my hair cut, still had split ends, and ended up re-cutting my bangs myself at home. My second haircut I had at the beginning of March with a female stylist. I actually really like her personality, and she was great at explaining many ways for me to care for my long hair. I haven't had hair past my shoulders since my gradeschool days, and was struggling with tangling and breakage. She a few products, but also many helpful tips like braiding it at night, combing with conditioner in the shower, and brushing it by layer when dry. I came in to her explaining I wanted whatever length she deemed necessary cut off, as well as some layers for lift and re-shaping of my bangs from the last time I was in. I was really happy with the length she took off and the job she did on my bangs, but when she went to cut layers, I was surprised at how unfinished they looked. She combed three sections of my hair to their opposite sides (right over left, left over right, and back over to the front) and chopped off large sections. I'm fine with using this method to cut some initial length into layers, but she never polished it up in anyway! The end result was choppy layers set above the rest of the length of my hair. She also didn't style my hair AT ALL, even after she asked a girl to go get her straightener? She then seemed in a hurry to get me out, not even asking if I was happy with the cut; just a quick "anything else I can do for you?" and whipped off the cape. I'm disappointed, because it would have been a great cut if she had just taken the time to even out the layers and toss in some product. Anyway, I have lots of friends who have been happy with Impressions, and they definitely have a polite and friendly staff. I'm just kind of tired of coming home disappointed, so I think I'm going to have to try somewhere else for now. read more
