I've been looking for a new salon for a little while now, since my old one closed after over a…read moredecade of going there. It had been a little over a year since my last cut and I was getting pretty desperate. A neighbor mentioned Shawn Paul Salon and I called to make an appointment. I really appreciated that the Micaela asked a bit about my hair and what I was hoping to do at that point. The salon uses that information to make sure you're seeing a stylist that's a good fit for what you want. Definitely an awesome little touch. I had my appointment with Alyssa yesterday. The salon is gorgeous and so welcoming. Everyone was so friendly and cheerful. Alyssa was absolutely wonderful. She had lots of questions about what I wanted to do with my hair and took her time to listen to what I was saying and what I was hoping for. I usually feel awkward seeing a new stylist for the first time, since conversation doesn't always flow, but my appointment flew by. I could not be happier with how my hair turned out. Alyssa also gave me some easy styling tips since I'm pretty clueless when it comes to doing anything beyond a quick blow dry. I'll definitely be back to see Alyssa when I'm ready for a trim and will be recommending Shawn Paul Salon to everyone looking for a salon!

I called them to see if this was going to be a good experience for me and my daughter. The employee…read morewas awesome but as the employee explained to me that the owner didn't have time to speak with me, so I can ask her important questions that I knew that the employee could not provide for me. I needed to talk to the owner and she did not have no time for me she kept telling the employee to speak for her. It's just if she didn't have time to speak with me, she didn't have time to make sure that our time could be the best experience we ever had. As this being our first time going to a salon. I looked online and I seen the place and it seemed like it was going to be awesome experience, but I am a very sensitive person and I feel like I shouldn't be judged just because of that, but I give you the upmost respect and give you my quality time and money. I feel like I should get the same. I'm sorry I would've recommend this shop to anyone.

I liked Abstract A. I saw Jordan, and she was very personable. I didn't want a complicated trim,…read moreand she delivered. Bonus points for calling me to let me know that the client ahead of me was running far over time and that I should wait to come in - the space is small, so I wouldn't have wanted to wait there, and I was able to work at home until my appt. The price is the best I've seen in Cleveland and they give student discounts, which, in addition to client pics online and a good location, is what primarily drew me here. However, I do recommend double checking with your stylist about how much you will owe -- I went in thinking the price would be the same as online, but was charged more, so even though it's not very expensive, I would recommend double-checking. I got a very standard trim, and Jordan did a great job taking off all of my dead ends. I perhaps might have liked more layering than what she did, but she respected that I wanted to be able to pull all of my hair back into a ponytail, which was still very much possible. The main downside was that she waited far too long to straighten my bangs, so by the time she wanted to do them, they had already dried in a super weird way and needed to be re-wetted and re-dried before she could trim them. I told her this was going to happen, since I have super thin hair, but I don't think she believed me. But overall, I got a really nice cut, and will likely be coming back.

ZERO STAR REVIEW!!! DO NOT COME HERE IF YOU GO TO CASE WESTERN AND/OR ARE BLACK. This was one of…read morethe worst salon experiences I've ever had. I called ahead and specifically asked if they had experience with Black hair. They said yes, which was a complete lie, just like their cosmetology experience as well. The second I walked in, every stylist stopped and stared at me like I didn't belong there. The energy was disgusting and uncomfortable from the start. The stylist had no idea what she was doing. She used no heat protectant, tried to straighten my hair while it was still wet, and then had the nerve to say I "didn't know how to do my own hair." The ignorance was unreal. Let's be honest, this place is not welcoming to Black clients. It's full of narrow-minded, untrained stylists who clearly have no respect or understanding for textured hair. The whole experience reeked of microaggressions and subtle racism. Save yourself the time, money, and disrespect. This salon needs more than training, it needs a reality check.

The salon is very tidy. I was greeted warmly upon arrival and welcomed as I advised it was my first time. I was able to be assisted without a wait, which in most cases is a Christmas miracle. Vincent did my gel manicure and was so friendly and personable. Gina did my pedicure afterwards and came over to greet me while Vincent was finishing my nails. Gina was very accommodating and was very personable and attentive as well. I opted for the spa pedicure, which included callus removal, salt scrub and hot towels in attention to the usual nail filing, soaking and polish. I was given my choice of coffee or water. I was very pleased with my overall experience and would recommend them to anyone in need of their services.

Follow up - Ok went back to this shop to get a redo of the same micro braids. The owner was out of…read morethe country in which her daughter is running the business until L comes back. When I took down the previous braids I made sure I bought some to shop so they know I want the same size for the same price $180. All went well the daughter started braiding my front and sides & stopped. I notice the braids were way bigger then what I had so I stopped her in mid braid and asked how much she was charging me. She stated $180 I advised the last time I received a smaller braid for $180 why would I pay you $180 for bigger braids this should be $150. She states maybe my mother gave me a discount - NO Discount was given on my part. After about 3hours another female started braiding the rest - HERE IS WHERE IT WENT BAD!!! 1ST she grabbed my nape and started braiding super soft which I knew the braids were not going to stay; so I told her she can braid a little tighter. I could tell my parts were not perfect & she was not comfortable braiding. After 8 hours (usually 6 hrs.) I was done. It looked Good not Great as the 1st time I went. This was December 29th on December 30th about 10 braids fell out from the back and 5 on the sides, some braids were not completely braided or had no slip knots to secure the braids. I called and explain the issue and was told they would fix them. As I do not live in this city so my commute back is about 1 hr on a good day and I had travel plans for New Yr. After the holiday (about a week later) I called again to explain that more braids are following out from the back and severally braids were hanging on for dear life. Again I was told they would fix them but I would have to come in after 8pm on a weekday - Not feasible!!! To make a long story short my braids never got fixed and it's only been a month and they look horrible and I mean horrible. I thought I found a braid shop that I could visit forever but I was wrong. If the owner or the daughter is braiding your hair you should be cool but anyone else WATCH OUT!!!Now I have to find another shop that is consistent on their techniques and quality. Very Disappointed

Happened to be in Cleveland and in great need of a haircut. Picked The Studio from online reviews…read moreand now happy to add mine. My curly hair is difficult to get right: I have found only two stylists who give me a good cut in my home town (pop. 1M). The Studio put me with Emily who gave me good cut. More than expected and a very reasonable price.

I really wanted to love this place. Unfortunately, my experience was incredibly disappointing…read more I came in with reference photos asking for soft bangs and a trim with some shaping. I left with what can only be described as a mullet, strands that were far too long and awkward to wear down, with no shape, no balance, and no styling. It was uneven in the back (the hairstylist, Emily, didn't even cut all the strands - she just snipped once at like two pieces?? It was so weird), My hair was so botched that my sister said it looked worse than when I tried to cut my own bangs in second grade. I told the stylist I was unhappy before I left the salon (I was in tears. I got into my car and literally cried), but she shrugged and vaguely offered to "fix it" within a week. I sat in the chair and said several times, hey this is not what I was looking for. I had reference photos that were as close to my hair type as possible. She kept kind of shrugging and ignoring me. As a small business owner and mom of two, I didn't have time to come back as it was also the week of the 4th of July. I've spent every single day since wearing a hat or a headband. The cost was over $100 to get my hair butchered, and I felt obligated to tip, despite feeling uncomfortable and dissatisfied. In retrospect, obviously I should not have. I followed up right away via email, sent photos, and tried to communicate. The salon owner, Rachelle, responded a couple of times, I responded back with times that worked for me to come in for her to fix it, and then she just stopped responding completely. Mistakes happen, but how a business handles them matters. The lack of urgency, accountability, or a clear solution made a frustrating experience worse. I'm still out the money and now have to pay another salon to fix it. The attached picture is from immediately after my appointment. As you can see, nothing was styled and my hair is exponentially worse than when I stepped into The Studio. Who would walk into a salon and ask for the awkward growing-out-bangs stage for a haircut??? Horrible.
