Never have loved my hair this much

Got my hair done by Hannah and it was amazing!! The salon is so cute inside and great prices. Will be coming back for sure.

Cut, color, highlight by Darryl Allen at mb studio (front view)

Darryl Allen's artistry as a hair stylist is incredible! This salon (and Rochester overall) is extremely lucky to have someone with such amazing experience and talent. He just moved here a few months ago after owning Darryl Allen Salon in Nashville, TN (I found it on Google.) He has worked with many celebrities and photographers and can be seen in GQ, Vogue, and Allure. The man is an absolute genius... I went from long brown hair to short blonde and get stopped by women at least once a week asking who does my hair.

RIVAJETA IS INCREDIBLE. A forever customer.

Absolutely in love with this place. It is absolutely so adorably decorated and everyone is so friendly. The receptionist was super friendly over the phone. I made an appointment with Rivajeta (ruh-vee-ta). My boyfriend and I had previously discovered this studio when we were visiting/apartment hunting and he needed his hair cut. Rivajeta gave him an awesome cut and we both really enjoyed her warm, friendly, and charming personality so much that I knew when it came time for my hair cut I would book one with her. I know it is hard to judge someone's talent cutting women's hair based on a man's haircut... BUT we just liked her so much I figured, 'why not?'. SO I went to Rivajeta for a highlight and a cut (to fix my previously botched bob and much needed root cover-up). She listened to everything I wanted and gave extremely well-thought out suggestions and was NEVER pushy with anything. She always wanted to make sure I was comfortable and made me feel like my decisions were always on the forefront (which is actually pretty hard to come by these days). She took the time to explain exactly what she was doing and exactly WHY she was doing it. I felt like I was getting a lesson in cutting, coloring, and styling hair. It wasn't necessarily to educate me (which is an added bonus) but to ensure that we were on the same page, so that I didn't feel unsure (about our plan or her talent) and to respect me enough to let me In on what she was doing AS she was doing this. I personally love learning new things but this was just a whole other level of awesome. You can REALLY tell she knows her stuff (both in how she teaches it and in the final product). Also, she told me about all the workshops she attends monthly, showcasing her drive to constantly learn about something she is CLEARLY passionate about. I believe this makes her truly excellent. She made GENUINE conversation too. It wasn't forced, fake or scripted conversation that I feel a lot of other hairdressers unfortunately tend to fall into having either. She made me feel like my time was important to her and aimed to ensure that I was completely satisfied. It sounds like a no-brainer and that service should always be this way but it is SERIOUSLY nearly impossible to find people as genuine, caring, talented, and thorough as Rivajeta no matter what field you look into. I will never go to anyone else. I HIGHLY suggest making an appointment with her.

Great salon! Atmosphere is comfortable -- fun and contemporary, not snobby. The owner is friendly and hilarious.

I recently visited Monroe Nails for a gel manicure and pedicure, and I had a great experience from…read morestart to finish. We called ahead, and they recommended making an appointment to be seen quickly. Everything went exactly as they said, and there was essentially no wait time when we arrived. The salon itself was very clean, peaceful, and relaxing. The chairs were especially comfortable, and the overall atmosphere made it easy to unwind. One small thing I would change is the TV placement. I think mounting the TVs behind the estheticians' chairs would make them easier for customers to watch during services. The staff was incredibly kind, accommodating, and attentive to detail throughout the entire appointment. Since I do not usually get my nails done often, I appreciated how helpful they were with color selection and decision-making. They made the whole experience feel comfortable and welcoming. It has now been over a week since my appointment, and my nails still look great, which says a lot about the quality of their work. The pricing was also very reasonable for the level of service received. Monroe Nails is definitely a spot I would return to, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing experience with friendly staff and quality nail services.

Decided to try Monroe Nails since I haven't been pleased with other salons. Very happy I did! My…read morepedicure was done with precision and Anita was very professional and personable. Will definitely go back...

Twelve Corners always needed a nail salon. Why? I don't really know. But I'm very happy that Beyond…read moreNails is not only here, but does a really nice mani-pedi for a good price. My frugality gets in the way of salon treatments, ask anyone. The first thing to know about Beyond Nails is that if you pay cash, you get coupons to put towards your next visit. And for a $30 pedicure, it's worth it to use the cash. On my last visit, I had a $5 off coupon from a previous visit available to me, resulting in a $25 regular pedicure. Can you beat that on most occasions? I usually can't. It's not just the convenience, the cash, and the sanitary procedures that would keep me coming back, it's that you get an amazing deal and a pleasant experience. I got my nails done here before my wedding and I absolutely loved the experience. I chose a regular pedicure, which always lasts forever, and gel manicure, knowing my tendencies to flake. During the pedicure, my legs were pampered with hot stones, completely included. Normally that's an add on, and here it's part of the regular pedicure. My gels lasted a few months too. This was one of the only times I didn't chip off my nail polish and my wedding nails lasted for a few months ultimately, with natural nail growth being the reason the polish eventually retreated. I made appointments on my recent visits, but things were spaced out enough that you could probably walk in without much incident. When choosing your polish, take note that some of the regular polishes do cost a little extra. Otherwise, the nail salon experience is one that you'd expect from a nail salon, as opposed to a place where things just seem hectic. Beyond Nails is a great choice for a spa-like day, and Twelve Corners is lucky to have them. Remember to bring cash!

very pushy for tips! after service they asked "how much are you going to pay for a cash tip." then…read morei tried to tap and pay and they pressed the pin pad for me to add a tip first. I said no tip and they printed out the receipt and handed me a pen and said "here for you to add a cash tip" when i never insinuated I was going to give one in the first place. the service was okay but deff an uncomfortable experience so I will not be returning.

This place is wonderful! Went today for the second time.. The first time was a couple of weeks ago…read more I went with my 8 year old daughter for mani pedis. I did a gel manicure. They made us feel so welcomed and we were both thrilled with our nails. Aerielle was very meticulous and Chelsea did a great job with my daughter. The manicure and pedicure there is a significant step above your average nail place. Yet the pricing is very reasonable. Oh, and my nails have held up for a full 2 weeks, feet still look great. Today I went alone as a pre-birthday treat. Again, delightful experience. Aerielle again did not disappoint! Come check this place out!!

Ok I have NOT been to this location or at this business in like six years. They use to be over in…read morethe wedge on South. This place from what I can ascertain its appointment only. You do everything online including cancellation and etc. Don't both dm'ing them on social media to cancel it's ONLINE ONLY. You go online pick a date and see what dates are available and of course what services you want. You will put in your credit/debit card and they will take a deposit and the rest is paid after the service. When they check you out the remainder will be paid. They don't do cash payments. You are welcome to tip in cash but make sure you have exact change. I came here as the person I normally see I double booked myself and she had no appointments available anytime this month (June 2024) so I decided to try this place again. If you want a place to roll into I can recommend a place but most spots now want an appointment. They are on the first floor as I think other businesses are here as well. The inside is light and bright, light woods and comfortable seating. I was greeted and asked to wash my hands.. ok I did not get that as I was here for a pedicure.. so... Also I was offered a drink, water, coffee, wine a nice touch. Now the set up for the pedicure was nice but I wished I could have moved back the chair, I had a pillow behind me but I got rid of it but I was comfortable but it was just wonky. I'm tall and usually they will adjust how you sit. This is minor but if you're tall ask if the chair can be adjusted. My nail tech Maddy Elizabeth was lovely, friendly and efficient. I picked out a color they have a bunch and if you want a gel type it's an additional cost. I got a more souped up pedicure with warm stones and a mask. The execution of the pedicure was great but the additional stuff did not seem too luxurious. The clay mask she almost forgot about than she put on warm towels and use also used warm stones. This was a nice touch but maybe I expected a bit more for $75.00. Oh well that's just me... When you are done you go into the back room and you dry your feet/hands for a bit. My feet I had a fan to dry my feet, not a big deal but it was odd... I think most are use to a light source or someone uses a quick dry. I think since they are all about 7 to 11 free nail items. While I was waiting I was offered a glass of rose if I wanted. The check out was easy and they did ask if I wanted another appointment. I said no but thank you. I'll keep them in mind when I can't get in with my regular person. From what I understand they are opening another location in Monroe in Brighton. This location from what I was told will get a refresh. All in all it was a lovely experience and a great pedicure. They share a parking lot and they ha e specific spaces for the business a plus. 4.5 out of 5
