Best of the best! I didn't have time back home in NY to get my hair braided for Coachella. As soon as I arrived in Palm Springs I googled and Instagram searched for a reputable salon. I am so lucky to have found Ms Gina. I was tight on time but she got me in Saturday morning. The drive from my hotel in Indian Wells was far (40 min) but so worth it. Parking was easy and she only needed 10 minutes to cornrow the right side of my head. Exactly what I wanted and the most competitive rates I've ever experienced for braids. She is such a warm person and I felt like I was at home with an Auntie. I received so many compliments on my hair style! I just wish I had more time so she could've done my whole head! Ms. Gina will be my go to whenever I'm in the area. read more

Online service requested but no one contacted me. I'm extremely disappointed that no one seems interested in taking on a new client.

Recently, having moved to Banning from LA, I've searched high and low to find a beautician that not only styles well, but also emphasizes healthy hair care. Gina does it all! She educates you on your hair type, the impact climate can have on your hair, and how to maintain your hair between appointments. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, just like her personality. Her new location is a boutique salon that gives the vibe of concierge service without being overpriced. I highly recommend scheduling an appointment with her. You won't be disappointed read more

MS GINA is amazing and has incredibly blessed hands that does wonders to your hair! We just moved to rancho Mirage and was looking for a hair stylist that was going to understand my hair. Upon searching I found Ms Gina and I contacted her for an appointment but because my schedule was so busy I was unable to see her right away but when I explained what my situation was, Ms Gina was able to accommodate me and scheduled an appointment for my hair retouch! I appreciate her kindness, her talent and overall such a great experience. Her salon is very clean and with an uplifting vibe! So grateful to have found this place as my new hair place! Highly recommend! read more

Gina charged me $400 to install a weave, during my appointment she took on 3 other clients and I left to my concert with an incomplete weave. She was to finish the following Tuesday, by than my braids were falling and rather than fixing her mistake she charged me another $400 plus additional hair. Again she failed to do her job properly and when I requested my money back she said she wanted the opportunity to fix the weave stating and I quote "My expectations were too high". Well the end result was no different and still she refused to refund my money. This woman and her partner in crime Trish have no moral integrity, common sense and will see their consequences will far exceed the $800. Even worse this fake Christian hides behind God and judgement will fall hard on her deceitful ass!! read more

Ms. Gina has been doing my hair for the past 5 years now. I've had very thin and very fine baby like hair for the past 10 years now. I've tried several different types of hair styles, textures, and have had most types of installs. Bottom line is, you truly get what you pay for. I can't tell you how many times I've had other mobile stylists come to me, ones found through Craigslist, and other marketing sources, only to end up returning to Just Gina's to correct their work. Regardless of how early she was at work, or how late she was STILL working, she has always been understanding, and accommodating to my schedule. read more

Recently, my current stylist had a family emergency and could not see me. I was anxious to find someone to take care of my hair given I was about to leave on a trip to London. I googled hair care in my area and found Gina. I dropped by Gina's salon and she was busy with a customer but took the time to hear my blight and offered immediately several options. Unfortunately I explained that I was leaving for an overseas trip and Gina said that she would do her best to help me. She told me she would take me on the next work day. Little did I know that this was her day off. I found out when I showed up for my appointment. Gina was so professional and her salon so warm and welcoming. I felt during my time with Gina that she was like an old friend but I had just met her. She took great care of me and checked to make sure I was ok during every step. I enjoyed talking with her and her journey as a business owner. She was thorough, efficient, professional and very kind. I would highly recommend her. I look forward to my next visit. read more

GINA!!! Thank you so much for taking such good care of my hair! I appreciate your professionalism and special care to my tender head. God bless your wonderful hands scrubbing my scalp and the patience you have for untangling these naps with special attention to my face/reactions to ensure it did not hurt too much. I loved the light and witty conversations and I am so glad that you had time for me. I hope others will take advantage to book an appointment for an awesome pampering with you! read more

My daughters loved meeting the stylist and will surely be on dial for all events. Students at my daughters school continued to ask where, who and how all day in school. It was funny to hear that teachers asked as well. Great place to be in when you know what you want done. read more

Cece was super conscientious about everything, reasonably priced, very patient im explaining things to me, and the salon was a wonderful, friendly place to be for the several hours that my new hairdue took.

I love Gina! She worked a miracle in my time of need lol. I was visiting Palm Springs from NYC and I had a hair emergency. I have natural hair and I wear a wig so it was important for me that my stylist knew how to care for African American hair. I found her on Yelp and she squeezed me in the same day. Gina gave me the most amazing wash and scalp massage, braided my hair down (not too tightly because my scalp is sensitive), and washed and curled my wig so beautifully. I left feeling like a new woman. If you're in palm springs or the desert, she's your woman. She also does mani pedis! read more

Curtesa did my hair, single braids. She changed the time of my hair appointment the day of, she didn't do them as small as I wanted them so they are now currently all falling out and she is blaming it on how short my natural hair is. Even though i sent her a photo of my natural hair prior to the appointment and she said it was long enough and that " I've been doing this for 18 years" so she knows what she's doing. My overall experience was just terrible here. I will never go back, my braids have been in for not even two weeks and four have fallen out. I've gotten my hair done since I was ten years old and in my many years of getting hair done this has never happened. And I've had short hair before. Sad about this experience and a waste of Money honestly.... current update it's been two weeks and four days and 12 of my braids have now fallen out and they look horrible. I am just so disappointed as I said earlier read more

omg i can't not say enough good things about this place. i just moved to the valley and was looking for a place to get my hair braided. i stumbled upon this page and decided that i was going to call to make an appt. the lady on the phone was super sweet when i called she told me that one of the braiders would give me a call so i could book my appt. She called me back about ten minutes later and i asked about a day she could get me in and she told me to text her a picture of what i wanted. when i came in they were super friendly and made me feel like family. i had such a good time when i was in their and would 100% come back to get my hair done for any event or just for fun! love the girls at just gina's read more

Last year I lost a chunk of hair due to an illness. Gina agreed to cut it down to an extreme twa (teeny weeny Afro). I spent a lot of time crying and wondering if my hair would ever grow back. Then Covid-19 hit and I wasn't able to go to Gina's for hair care. BUT, the reason for my review of Gina today is to tell you that up until COVID-19 Gina worried about not just my hair but my mental well being as a result of so much hair loss. Gina would massage my hair, talk consolingly to me as she had to cut even shorter, and she even prayed for me. Today I can honestly say that it was Gina's positivity and care that supported my hair regrowth. She told me what products to buy and how to use them. I still have not been able to see Gina since COVID-19 broke out as I am part of the vulnerable population, but I can't wait to visit her salon when Covid-19 is a thing of the past. Gina, thank you so much. Don't second guess whether you should go to Gina. GO! You'll gain more than a hairstyle. read more

Very glad I found Gina here in Coachella Valley. She is a sweet lady, full of knowledge and an excellent professional. She uses A+ products, listen to you regarding what you want done. I had a touch up color and styling. Very well done. She has a lady working with her, Marie, she is excellent. Not a long waiting, her booking is very organized , you don't sit there for hours waiting for your turn. (Virginia) read more

Thank you to the great Trenetta for taking care of my braids this afternoon. Classy service and good atmosphere in the building. First time coming into the salon and felt welcomed. read more

Terrible experience with the braider Myiesha, absolutely terrible. I make an appointment with her last week and the first red flag was when i was making attempt to contact her and she wouldn't reply at all, she'd only respond on her time once and wouldn't be responding to my questions or anything. she canceled the first time the day of the appointment which I understood her reason, we rescheduled for the following day and same thing, cancelled again, but had no communication with me at all, she let me contact her first before even letting me know that she can't braid my hair that day and had me waiting for a call that never came. For the last time I decided to reschedule again for the third time with her the following day and when doing so she was saying how she was going to call me back and never did again, the night before the day we had rescheduled for the third time I had sent her a message to confirm, and no response again. The morning of the third day we had rescheduled she did not contact me whatsoever and still hadn't called me back as she said she would and also ignored my messages completely. The salon is 30 minutes away from me and I drove early in the morning to get to my appointment. When I get there the salon is closed, nobody was there. I called her, no answer. Texted no answer. Called a few times again no answer. I was waiting outside of the salon one hour before I decided to just forget about it and leave. No response. Till this day and time, no response. She made me pay her a deposit in advance. She didn't have the audacity to even explain or even apologize for just wasting my time. I sent her a bunch of texts which I will share with you guys below, she never answered. Absolutely no type of consideration for my time as a client. No communication at all. She has no professionalism. It's really a shame since I did come to this salon once before with the previous braider, my opinion they should get rid of this braider now and get the old one back or hire a new one with actual professionalism. She obviously cares nothing about the business she is representing, because I will never come back here after this. read more

Great service! I came here in August and forget to leave this review, but I never forgot how my hair looked. My hair has stayed straight for the longest time after coming to Ms. Gina. She made me feel like I was a family member. I definitely will be back..and soon! I recommend this place!! read more

Visiting for the holidays my hair was a mess. I was afraid to try to get my hair done being away from my normal stylist. I found Gina on yelp and her reviews were good. I scheduled with her right before NYE she was very sweet and professional. She had me in and out in a hour. She hooked my hair up for a party I was attending. So glad I took a chance and called Gina you won't regret it read more

This place is amazing! Gina took excellent care of my hair, and it's like she has magic in her fingers; my hair was very soft and flowy, and the atmosphere was very peaceful and calming. I really enjoyed the treatment I received and I will definitely be back! Thank you, Ms. Gina, for your loving what you do!! read more

Things have to be pretty bad if I take time out of my day to post a negative review on a service I found on yelp. I travel between Los Angeles and the desert. 6 weeks ago I found Gina on yelp she did an average job on my weave, but that's par for the first time. I called her the next day and she knew exactly how to adjust on my next appt. YAY! Called yesterday left a message for an appt. Gina called me this morning... this is where the not so nice review comes in. How does a business stay alive with an owner that looks at her cell phone sees a phone number(mine) calls that number back and and asks in a an accusatory voice "why did you call this number?" Lordy I'm not the po po. I asked her if she had listened her to messages prior to calling me,, then she hung up. read more

This place was wonderful. The entire staff was friendly, explained to me thoroughly how they did everything, made and me feel comfortable. My hair came out fabulously! Thank you miss Gina read more

Gina booked an appointment for my daughter to cornrow her hair. One of us got the appointment on the wrong day - I'm pretty sure it was me, but hard to say. Gina was booked, but worked us in anyway. She did that with grace and kindness, and I'm grateful. I recommend Just Gina's very highly. If I can get a copy of the pic of she and my daughter, I'll come back and post it here. The cornrows are lovely - smooth parts, a good length for an 8yo, and not painful for the kiddo. One thing to note - the front of the store says A Classic Act Hair and Nail Salon. It doesn't say Gina, but that's the right place. read more

Marie braided my partners hair here. They welcomed us like family and I believe she did her best. His braids looked bomb and he was sad to take them out. We will def be back! Thanks Gina Thanks Marie read more

I loved the way my hair came out! It was so un even and lifeless and Im so glade that Gina had time to squeeze me in. She was very kind and patient and so knowledgeable and I will definetly be returning. read more

The staff is amazing! So friendly, definitely that neighborhood friend feel, I wish I could give it 5 stars!! But as for the cut, um, I asked for a longer aline, but it was a lot shorter than I expected...almost a pixie cut. I have super curly hair so that was a terrible move, can anyone say AFRO? it looked cute the way they styled it straight, but once I got home I realized it was super uneven....it's been 3months and I'm still waiting for it to grow out enough to get it fixed :/. read more

A friend of mine needed a press and curl, we saw just Gina on yelp gave her a call and was able to get her in today. She did an amazing job, very pleased with her work. Friend said she will definitely be going back. She does it all, specializes in African American hair. read more

If there were 10 stars to give, I would rate Just Gina's a 10! Ms. Gina exceeded my expectations. She is so welcoming and gracious along with having outstanding stylist skills to ensure you leave happy and satisfied in addition to keeping you as a loyal customer. I moved to the desert area from the East coast and started asking locals for salon suggestions. I was referred to seek out Just Gina's and today I became one of many of her satisfied clients. I look forward to being a repeat customer and a member of her family since that is the way she embraces you. The entire staff throughout the salon is professional and their customer service is outstanding. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! read more

Thank you Dee-Dee for the nice relaxing pedicure. I enjoyed the homey environment of Just Gina's full service old fashioned salon. The best part of my visit was the extremely nice attitude she showed to the two senior clients that she serviced while I was getting my pedicure. Miss Gina demonstrated incredible patience and kindness to two fragile mature women. She explained everything before she did it, and showed such professionalism, I was moved. I would recommend Just Ginas to anyone, but especially people who wish for an un-hurried, compassionate hairdresser. read more

super friendly staff and comfy place to be in! i was super excited to get my hair cut here after hearing all these good reviews, however Gina seemed distracted or something while cutting my hair because she barely bothered to look at the reference photo and left my hair choppy and uneven. 3 stars because i can still manage to make my hair look ok with the help of styling gels and because of the friendliness of the staff. read more
