As a loyal client of Amanda Tsinai at Pascal Pour Elle for 15 years, I can say with confidence Amanda sets the bar for colorists. I trust her implicitly with my hair color because her talent and treatment of her clients are above and beyond the expected standard. Everyone I refer to Amanda has become a loyal client How has Amanda earned our trust? Talent Amanda is an artist. Every client leaves the salon with a masterpiece. Her signature is on point color. She achieves color that is out of the reach of most colorists outside of Pascal Pour Elle. This is not simply my opinion. The people who compliment my hair color are a testament to Amanda's abilities. These people are seeing her work up close and personal. I'm not exaggerating, her work garners me compliments every week. Both friends and strangers compliment my hair color. I was born a redhead and I am still a redhead thanks to Amanda. Most recently, a stranger expressed how much she loved my red hair and assumed it is natural. She added that she's a colorist and knows it's impossible to replicate natural red hair with color. It may be impossible for some colorists, but not for Amanda. Amanda achieves the impossible! Treatment of Clients Amanda takes the time to talk with you, look at your photos, ask you questions, listen to you, understand your style and preferences, etc. In addition, she explains everything she's doing. Despite our years together, she makes no assumptions. She walks me through what services I'm getting and why. In addition, she helps me find the perfect product at my request or helps me schedule with a stylist. Amanda is a social person who loves engaging with her clients, creating masterpieces, and helping people feel special. Amanda does your style and your soul good. read more

Forever grateful for the recommendation I received from multiple friends to book with Bobby Spiridon. I was hesitant to try a new place but, after all the amazing recommendations, I knew I had to visit Bobby at Pascal Pour Elle. Bobby does an amazing job time and time again on my hair! He puts so much thought and care into what he does, not only when discussing the look with clients, but also when deciding which products to use to help the client feel the most comfortable and free from scalp irritation. I truly appreciated his guidance and care with this, as I have sensitive skin. I always look forward to visiting Bobby and the beautiful Pascal Pour Elle location whenever I need a refresh! read more

My review is not about the salon but just about wanting to introduce ourselves to Pascal. The front desk, Lisa and Mia in particular were unbelievably nice. They recommended that we come back during a certain window and Pascal would certainly come and say hi and take a picture. This was true. He didn't brush us off. He talked for a few minutes - took a picture and went back to his client. For this reason alone, I would come into the salon and try them out. read more

1 week post services. 1 shampoo later, the roots are losing color and now it looks like I never had my roots done at all. I'm going to have to pay to have someone else fix it. I get that this was apprentice service but the color supervisor herself got hostile when I said something about it. Very unhappy. read more

Amanda Tisinai should 'not' be assigned the title Master colorist to say the least...this is a case of purple highlights gone so wrong in her hands!--the Master colorist NOT at Pascal Pour Elle who did fix the mess explained: 1. Improper lifting of color was done by Amanda 2. Improper mixing and application of the purple highlights/color was done by Amanda Although Lisa was quick to respond as the manager at Pascal Pour Elle when a refund was requested, the 'proper' refund with the 3.9% up-charge that Pascal adds on CC, took a week of chasing. --The icing was her trying to blame the awful disastrous outcome on 'build-up' from box color??!!! Really?!--- No Box Color! ---No Build Up!--Virgin hair was where highlights were to be done! Sometimes it's best to admit wrong and mistakes and end it more high-class! read more

worst customer service. Extremely rude, arrogant owner. If they mess up, you are on your own.

Stay away from them specially Ellen She ruined my blonde existing highlights and messed up the roots color which was supposed to be matched with the rest in a natural blonde tone. She left me with brassy , orangish on-even hair which is now damage as well because of over processing attempting to fix the horrible job she did! I showed her my old highlight's when they were fresh and trusted her capability of what she is about to do,but she wasn't able to lighten back of my head hairs at all even though we agreed with full highlights, then put a wrong toner,( dark brown) then tried to remove the toner, messed up more and at the end blamed their lighting! Super unprofessional and overpriced read more

I've been coming here since I was a kid. Pascal was my stylist until David his cousin took me on. I have to say I've always left in awe over my experience. I come in and start with a French Vanilla at their coffee bar wile I wait for my shampoo. During the shampoo you not only get a scalp massage, working in the shampoo and conditioner, but you also get a back massage from the massage chair they put you in during the wash. To talk about the vibe, It's always busy with business here. As you walk through to the atrium to get you hair washed, you pass all the stylists and all the patrons intertwining perfectly together within such a beautiful building with incredible architecture, topped with a stained glass ceiling in the main atrium. They have a beauty salon on the second floor as well with all the luxuries to take care of one's needs and when you are on you're way out, they have a huge wall of products to choose from if your interested in shopping before you go on you're way. It's been like walking into a different world and when you're done, you walk back out into the world you left. 5/5 on all fronts. read more

What a fantastic salon filled with talent. I had been going here for years and then switched to a salon downtown closer to my new condo. I tried and tried to match the results I got at Pascal but failed miserably. I was stuck with dark roots when all i wanted was to be blonde! I am a natural dark blonde and am very particular with my highlights. I highly highly recommend any hairdresser in this salon, but specifically Bobbi. He is so talented and I always leave so happy! I get my haircut by Davíd who has been cutting hair for 30+ years and is originally from Paris. He is worth every dollar. In general, you will not regret coming here. They will do exactly what you want and you will leave feeling beautiful!!!! Thank you, Pascale Pour Elle! read more

The elegant ambiance, excellent customer service and artistry of the salon stylists are all phenomenal! It is absolutely worth spending time on yourself here! Pascal has cut my hair for over 40 yrs! His expertise with current styles and ease of executing with precision will not disappoint! The colorists are genius (Kim) and very talented with blending/colors. What is more important than taking "me" time?! You won't be disappointed! read more

This salon is truly amazing. I had a cut and blowout from Claudya and it was above and beyond. Simply amazing - and lasted me 5 days! If you want expert color Amanda is the best. Everyone is friendly including the front desk and the salon is clean and inviting. Highly recommend. read more

I have been getting my hair done at Pascal Pour Elle by Amanda Tisinai for the past 15 years. As many know, it's hard to find a colorist that gives consistent results, and once you find someone as great as Amanda, you never let go! I wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair! She truly can do it all. From partial and full highlights, balayage, to full dye (purple), Amanda has always exceeded my expectations. If you're looking for a colorist, look no further than Amanda. She is a master of her craft and makes your appointment so fun and personal! The time flies with easy conversation and you leave feeling and looking like your best self. read more

Amanda is the best hair colorist I have ever had in my life. She changed my hair completely and not only is my hair the healthiest it's ever looked it, it is so blonde and perfect ( thanks to Amanda). In addition, Tula is the best hair stylist and cutter ever. I do not wash my hair for days after she styles it!! These two ladies are my holy grails and do it best. Would never go to any other salon because Amanda and Tula are the best. read more

I recommend the salon because of the expertise and longevity of the staff. I used to go to Arnie, not sure what happened to him, but there are many left here that are awesome. read more

Was recommended by a family member to see Bobby for color and Nicole for cut and style. I told both of them I " wanted a change"- and I LOVE my new style and color. Both of them could not be any more accommodating or nicer. I was a bit nervous walking in is that I had never been there before and you often hear stories about snobby north shore salons. This is definitely not one of them. I was greeted warmly at the door and one of the receptionist took me on a tour of the salon. as I walked around, Nicole came up to me and introduced herself to me saying she wanted to meet me before my color appointment. The rest of the salon visit was seamless and I will definitely return! Everyone is very nice! They are constantly cleaning too. One tip: they prefer cash or check and if you use a credit card there is a fee attached. They waived the fee for me as it was my first visit. But this is a good thing to know before you go. Thank you! read more

Poor customer service. Rude owner who fights not only with staff but clients. Colorists often put color and leave the salon without checking if color came out correctly. Happened few times and when reported that color did not come out correctly, owner would not accommodate. He is unprofessional, uneducated, short tempered man. He has gone to courts against his own employees. Salon also kept sending emails to clients about sensitive topics without any regard to feelings of his clients. You have a right to have your opinion and support any religion, nation or group but do not impose your decisions on clients. It is a business where they should be sensitive to clients feelings. He also seems racist against certain cultures and religions. He should announce on his website that this business is not for this religion people. read more

Amanda Tisinai is the colorist I love. I couldn't be happier with every color she has done for me. Believe me I put her up to a challenge as i always love the bright neon colors. She has always come out with a win and the outcome always been more amazing then i can even imagine. She has been my colorist for over 10 years. I constantly get complaints on my hair from complete strangers even while it's in a messy bun. You want a professional and amazing job done she is the one. She goes over the details and the process of your color making sure that you're both on the same page. When I moved to Florida for 2 years I was searching for a colorist like Amanda and i just couldn't find one. When I moved back she was the first one I saw immediately lol. I can feel the passion she has for coloring hair. read more

Very nice salon! I got a fantastic cut from Nicole (with master stylist, Marci, supervising the final outcome). I was there for close to an hour and a half, but I'd rather a stylist take their time and do good work than not. I even left with some hair care pointers and I've figured out what I've been doing wrong with conditioner all this time. I was even able to re-create the style the next morning! Overall, a great experience! read more

I have never left a salon so happy!! I have had a few bad experiences in the past with hair coloring - enough to make me want to stop trying to color my hair entirely. I saw Jojo for my color and I immediately knew it was going to be a good experience. I showed her 2 photos at the start of the appointment and felt like she knew exactly what I wanted/needed. She absolutely nailed it!! Jojo was welcoming, friendly, and made me feel at ease the entire appointment. The salon was super busy that day (it was a Saturday), but she really took her time with me. The whole appointment felt effortless, I am so relieved to have found someone so talented. I have finally found my go-to person for color! I also had Diana dry and style my hair and she was amazing too!! She gave me the perfect beach waves. I am so happy!! I am not one to normally write reviews but I can't wait to go back! read more

I got my hair colored today and when I got home, I was able to get a better view of how well the color turned out! Bobby honestly did such an amazing job with my hair. He really took his time to make sure the color turned out right. He was also very accommodating with my work schedule. Not to mention, he's a great conversationalist. I will be coming back for more work. I've attached a picture so that you can see his work. The camera honestly doesn't do justice for how good my hair looks in-person! read more

When I first moved to the burbs I vowed I'd always go into the city to get my hair done. Six months later I'm even happier with my stylists in da burbs. Cut, color, wax, etc...you can get it ALL done at Pascal Pour Elle. Cut and Style: When I called I asked who was a pro with curly hair and the receptionist said (without any hesitation) Irina. When I first met Irina I understood why she'd been recommended because she's got some mad curls on her head. If my curls were half as fabulous as hers I'd actually wear mine curly. I briefly wondered if I should have asked for a pro who can get curly hair straight. Fortunately, Irina turned out to be a pro at just that. I've visited her 3 times now and am due for a 4th visit! Color: decided to trust my fellow yelpers on this one and went with Marissa. She made me feel super comfortable after just minutes in her chair. I absolutely loved the results and within days of getting my color done received several compliments from friends, strangers, etc. Unfortunately, a few weeks later one small area in the front of my hair ended up brightening up and almost looked like I was turning grey. I rushed back to Marissa. She mentioned she was so happy I came back and fixed it immediately (at no charge). It stayed perfect until it was time to pay Marissa another visit; and she got it 100% right the 2nd time. I have a feeling I'll be a customer of hers for a long time. Waxing: Diane seems to be one of the few people at Pascals who runs on time so you may want to get there even a few minutes early for her. She's good, fast and makes good conversation during a painless waxing process. Hair wash: Extra stars for one of the assistants here, Evan, who asked me in March when I'd be returning to school after spring break. Ha! He also works wonders with a hairdryer. I'm usually not a fan of being passed off to an assistant for a blowdry after a cut (Irina was running behind on this particular day), but was OK with it since Evan's one talented dude. read more

I just visited the newly remodeled beautiful salon. Very pleasant experience in a safe atmosphere, highly professional I am very pleased with services I received ( haircut ) read more

David the best hair stylist and Boby very professional never fell. I been going to Pascal since 4 years ago.

Jojo did my hair around Halloween and I'm OBSESSED. I've gotten countless compliments and I feel like myself with this beautiful color!! She's the sweetest too, can't wait to book again in the future! read more

You will not find better trained stylists and colorists anywhere on the North Shore, period. You may get seemingly just as good of a haircut elsewhere, especially upon initially walking out of the salon, but, man, a cut from Pascal's even grows out beautifully. Gorgeous interior with a stained glass ceiling, dark wood floors, plush upholstery, light walls, and an open, airy feel. The salon also offers hot chocolate, a variety of coffee drinks, and water for free-- but, baby, when you pay your bill you'll know how that espresso machine got paid for. The downsides? I miss Amanda. What a fantastic, friendly stylist that was always receptive to my ideas and willing to make suggestions when I came in all indecisive-like. Jee does an amazing job but doesn't have the conversational skills of the incredibly talented, warm Briton that recently left for greener pastures. Oh, and the prices just keep seeming to go up 'n up 'n up... read more

I had initially been tentative to get my hair cut upon reading some of the less-than-heartening reviews, but I had thought it be best to move forward regardless, because it had been so near to where we live, as well as their price being lower than many of the other higher-rated salons. Fortunately, I had an absolutely wonderful experience at Pascal Pour Elle that had far exceeded my expectations. My stylist had been Tony Kelly, who was attentive, friendly, and professional. Although we had not connected much past that professional degree, he had nonetheless done an extremely good job cutting my hair. It had been quite a drastic change (very long hair to very short), and he acknowledged that fully and proceeded with caution. To my surprise, he worked quickly, but this did not at all impact the final result. He appeared very experienced, and he knew full well what he was doing. Frequently he asked me before continuing, to make absolutely sure, which I really appreciated. In the end, again, I was extraordinarily satisfied with the haircut. Apparently some others were too, as immediately afterward I was given a sum of compliments that likely flattered me a lot more than they should have. Tony was kind of enough to, since it was my first true short haircut and such a drastic change, offer to help me out on any concerns that may arise in the near future. I couldn't be happier to hear that. Pascal Pour Elle and my stylist, Tony Kelly, come very highly recommended! read more

Marissa and Kate are my dream team! Marissa is my colorist extraordinaire and Kate gives the best haircut on the Northshore. I have been going to Pascal for years and now my husband goes and so does my daughter. The gals that work behind the desk are so welcoming and friendly and the atmosphere is very fancy so you feel like a queen but the warmth and friendliness of the people that work there are the thing that sets this salon apart from any other on the North Shore! read more

Went in today for a 1 inch trim with a new stylist for a $100 haircut. Explained to the stylist what I had in mind she insisted that I takeoff much more than I had planned showed me a picture and I said no that is not what I want. She said she was confused and didn't understand what I wanted... It was a very uncomfortable experience and I should've walked out. Instead I walked out with a very unattractive haircut the one that she wanted not that I wanted. I won't be going back. read more

Excellent place !! Perfect setting !!! Very high quality color with Kim abd blow dry with kathy ! Facials as well ! I have been going to this salon for over 20 years ! Never had any problem ! Debbie D read more

I have been going to Tina Rizzo at Pascal pour Elle for many many years. She is a very professional and very talented colorist. She is the only person I trust with my blonde hair and I cannot speak highly enough of her and the entire team at Pascal!! After many years, she knows exactly the kind of color I want. Furthermore, During these covid times, the salon feels very clean and safe. The stylists all have masks, they take you temp upon entry and everything is spaced 6 feet apart. read more

The hair colorist was kind, but my hair looks very fake dark, which is not what I asked for (I asked for a rich brown). The haircut itself is the worst I have gotten in years. I wear bangs, but the stylist had her own idea in mind, and made the "bangs" on one side of my head very short, gave me a part, and then left me with long "bangs" on the other side. And then she blew it out and it looks awful. I can't get my short bangs back, so I jus left, and all that for the great price of over $200 (if you use a credit card you get charged a fee). I need to find another salon read more

This was the worst experience ever all I got for $200 almost was some color in my hair then they told me go ahead and blow dry your own hair if you want to style it go ahead and style it yourself they don't have no time for you I've never seen a stylist for this kind of money to not curl style color and whatever else it was basically threw some color from a Walmart together and that was it no hair styling no curling iron no nothing I had to blow dry my own hair please save yourself the agony because the hairstyle color and was not even on was not even good fair at best probably Supercuts would give me a better haircut LOL read more

This is my go to spot for haircuts. David gives the best haircut I've every received. I highly recommend Pascal Pour Elle to anyone in the North Shore looking for the best option available. read more

I have frequented this salon for a VERY long time. When I first started going there it was top notch. Hence why i would return. However, as of late I have to say I have to be done with the place as far as a haircut is concerned. For color I do like Marissa. Charlotte is awesome for facials. But for a haircut, I have had less than desirable experiences finding a regular stylist there since my stylist left. I just think quality has been sacrificed in that dept. a bit which I find to be rather disappointing. UPDATE: (August 2015) I decided awhile ago to give the hair cut thing one more try there, and found Marci to be fantastic. Now, combined with Kelli for color, (Marissa is no longer there) I'm a happy customer again. +1 more star. read more

Shout out to Bobby! He's a wonderful colorist! He listens, suggests and "Voila" you leave looking beautiful!, He's thoughtful, personable and tries his hardest to please. read more

Great haircut, great color - been almost a decade before I have found a place that will do both well, professionally. Both colorist and stylist asked good questions, listened carefully, made suggestions that would improve on my ask and finished my cut and color that is super easy to maintain- if they continue, I am a fan for life. Positive shout out to Lisa! read more

Rude!!!! Rude!!!!! Rude!!!! Every time I call to make an appointment or show up for an appointment, i am met with rudeness. The women who answer the phone are RUDE, in a hurry and act as if I am bothering them. The women at the front desk are the same way and are probably the same people. I would get my hair done more often if it were not for the front desk "ladies". I have the misfortune of having my hair stylist work there. That is the only reason I ever go to the Glencoe location (or any other). When she leaves I will rejoice never to have to set my foot in that unfriendly, rude, hurried place again. read more

I have no complaints about service(s) received, my issue is that in Glencoe you are charging additional fee for using a credit card? Seriously? Most people in this area carry very little to no cash... plus the fact that I wasn't aware of charge till I saw on statement and then asked for receipt..I am not aware of another salon in this area that charges a fee for using a credit card? read more

I've been going here for years for highlights and recently for haircuts. Great salon, friendly staff (not snobby like some other high end salons). They use top of the line products, including my favorite, Kerestase. When you get your hair washed, they include a little scalp massage that feels fabulous. read more

My favorite spot in the North Shore for all my hair needs. highly recommended!
