I had high hopes for HeadSpace Salon after seeing all the great reviews, but my experience was…read moreincredibly disappointing. During my first visit, I was told, "Come back in 6 months--too many layers!" I followed that advice and returned after 6 months, only to be told, "Still one layer left--come back in 3 months!" So, I came back today, hoping for some progress, but what I received was beyond frustrating. The stylist was rude and refused to cut my hair at all. I asked for at least a trim or some shape around my face, but he outright declined. He conveyed his refusal with a statement that was dismissive and condescending, saying he wouldn't cut my hair just because I wanted something different. I live in Rome and travel frequently, making it difficult to schedule haircuts. I'm furious that he wasted my time, especially after giving him multiple chances. I've never encountered a stylist who couldn't create a hairstyle or a transitional look for long, straight hair with fringe bangs. It makes me question his talent and creativity. I cannot recommend HeadSpace Salon based on this experience. It's disheartening to feel ignored and undervalued as a client. I see based on the other negative reviews, I'm not alone in this experience. I can speak quite a bit of Italian but I'm not fluent, so I used Google translate, because when it comes to my hair, I don't want misunderstandings. Maybe he only likes to cut Italians. He should say so up front if thats the case.

Couldn't be been happier with my time spent in this central and modern salon…read more I wandered in without an appointment and looking for a quick blow-out just after arriving in Rome for a wedding weekend...despite my jet lag and lack of any Italian language, Emiliano made me feel right at home. He recommended Silvia take care of me, which she truly did. I had no clue what hairstyle I wanted, and Silvia took the time to talk me through the options -- she even provided me WiFi to show her my dress online to make sure we picked a good match! I was so pleased with the final product that I came back into the salon the following day for a second blow-out! Silvia is kind, professional and truly a master of her art! I look forward to returning in my next visit to Rome.

Found this in my drafts from when I wrote this two years ago:…read moreI'm a study abroad student here for the semester and needed my blonde touched up at the roots. I dm'd the salon on Instagram and quickly got a reply and was scheduled within the week. I showed up and was warmly greeted. I showed Charissa a picture of what I wanted and she gave me exactly what I showed her. I mentioned I wanted some face framing bangs and she just slid her shears across the front of my hair and recommended a quick trim to give my hair some more movement. I had such a pleasant experience chatting with Charissa and the owner, I believe her name is Jill, and Jill's daughter. They're so sweet and engaging. I couldn't be happier with my hair! I mentioned that as a study abroad student, I didn't have a hair dryer and didn't care to pay for one for the 4 months I was living in Rome. Jill LET ME BORROW a hair dryer, I guess an extra she had and didn't use, for the remainder of my time studying abroad in Rome. Of course I returned it to her before I went back to the US but my point is that Jill and her team are truly phenomenal. You should go here for any hair service you want

I have gone to strictly Aveda salons for the past two years and always had an excellent and extremely professional experience. I get my hair done every 8 weeks, so I know exactly how long it takes to do my hair and have a rough idea of how much it costs depending on where in the world I am. I went to this salon for the first time on Thursday. I went to touch up my roots to match the rest of my platinum blonde hair. The stylist doing my hair had no idea what he was doing and didn't leave the bleach in long enough, left the toner in my ends too long, and I ended up with orange roots and BLUE hair. I was in tears. A woman working there promised me that I would not have to pay for this mistake and that I should come back for another appointment, again stressing that I would not have to pay. I was hesitant to come back, but because they had said it would be gratis, I went back today for a 6 hour appointment to fix what they had done. I had to contact my colourist from Aveda's Civello salon in Toronto to give this salon the right formula for my dye and my toner because they weren't sure what to do... Anyway, after 6 hours my hair turned out great so I asked the hair dresser for a trim and picked out a product to take home as well! Then they wanted to take pictures of my hair for their social media and I thought "OF COURSE! The least I could do to thank them!" When I went to pay for my haircut and products (because my root touchup was promised to be free), they told me my bill was 300 EUROS! I asked for a breakdown of the bill and they said they couldn't give me a breakdown until after I paid. So I told them I'm not paying 300 Euros until they explain what it's for. They wouldn't budge. So I figured I would pay and then go straight to the Questura to report them. When I put my card in the machine, the amount was changed to 365 euros! My receipt not only has the dye on it, but also additional services on it that they said they were giving me to prevent damage from their mistake. If you are an expat or a tourist, avoid this place! They are inexperienced and looking to make a quick buck off of you. They assume they won't see you again and they don't care about your hair.
