Hi there! I wanted this to be a more positive post, but Salon Estique fell quite short of expectations. Here are the details.... I'm new to the metro-Phoenix area and found Salon Estique through social media when one of their stylists caught my attention. I booked a haircut and partial color, and during the appointment she recommended adding a hydration treatment. I was happy to follow her professional recommendation. The total came to nearly $500, which I was prepared to invest for high-quality results and specialized knowledge. As someone with naturally bouncy curls, it's great to find a curl-focused stylist. Unfortunately, my search continues in metro-Phoenix. The results here were super disappointing. My curls were left flat and lacked their usual shape and volume at the top of my crown. At this price point, I expected a higher level of styling expertise and knowledge that enhanced my natural texture rather than diminished it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]My stylist even commented, "I don't know why it's so flat on the top."[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Me either, sis :( I did get much better results when I washed and styled my hair at home. However, styling was part of the expense and experience. [[HIGHLIGHT]]While I don't mind paying for skill, I left feeling disappointed in the overall result. I won't be back to Salon Estique.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]If you have curly hair- This is THE place for you. Suellen is a curl master.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The salon decor is beautiful and the staff is so friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Suellen really cares about helping clients learn how to care for their hair.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got a curl cut and my curls feel alive! They are bouncy and shiny. Love it! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Amber met with me for a curly hair color consultation, and we made a plan in advance of my appointment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was very pleased with the outcome when I came back in for my actual appointment. Beautiful, clean salon. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very kind people work here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I felt really listened to as a curly girl and I'm looking forward to coming back in a few months![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Perfect place for high quality cuts, service, and experience. Bright and clean space in a good location. I got a hair cut and color here and really enjoyed both experiences. They were expensive but I only do these services every couple years or so, so definitely worth it for me. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They serve wine during the appointment :) Definitely recommend for a nice pampering![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] @azfitfood read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I haven't been this happy and confident in a long time![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I found Emma (@curlsbyemma) on TikTok and I just knew I had to book with her. I'm such a newbie with my curly hair so Emma and her assistant took their time to explain the process and the products thoroughly so that I can learn and know how to do this myself. I've never had a hairstylist to take their time and explain their process so it was greatly appreciated. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Both girls were awesome, personable and this felt like a hangout with girlfriends more than a hair appointment[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Can't wait to be back for my routine curl cut![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

They did a great job provided my daughter the haircut that she requested. Will definitely return for service.

I have been here 2x, once for me & once for my daughter. Amber was amazing. She did such a great job with my hair that I knew she would do wonders for my daughter. She helped me with the cut & style and showed me how to use the product. The salon was beautiful and welcoming. I have been to other curly salons that did not feel welcoming. I will continue to request Amber for all the curly hair needs read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I wish that this was a 5 star review as their staff and customer service was phenomenal and everyone was so nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] However, [[HIGHLIGHT]]I went in wanting a complete color change and talked to the lady that was going to do my hair, before hand about my budget and what the process would look like.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] She told me to come in for like a consultation and test strip bc I did dye my hair about a couple years ago and when I got there I told them I trust them and just want something different . The end results are practically no different than what my hair already looked like and I paid just shy of $400 for what seems like nothing! Way over priced and I just wish they would've told me that what I wanted couldn't be done or at least done a test strip first to make sure. I had my hair blow dried right before I went in so attached is my before photo and right after I left the salon. read more

I went in for balayage and it was so beautiful. My cut and color was exactly what I wanted.

Amber is so amazing and truly knows how to cut curly hair . Never have I met such an amazing stylist that truly cares and understands your wants and needs. She's not just in it for the money either. Just from experience alone you can tell she truly loves what she does. Before coming here I used to go to just about anyone to cut my curly hair but once I got in ambers care, I don't think I can trust anyone else with my curly cuts/curl care. [[HIGHLIGHT]]She is so informative and helpful, my curls are better than ever![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And thanks to her I was able to embrace my hair and rock it better than ever before. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Shout out to amber and this amazing team. From the front desk to just about every other stylist there; these girls are truly amazing and welcoming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I love this salon. :) read more

Very disappointed that my appointment was canceled just a couple of hours prior to when I was supposed to go. I've been literally so excited since I've booked this appointment a couple weeks back. I know it's out of everyone's control when someone has to call in sick but it's disappointing when there seems to be no solution other than rescheduling my appointment for later this weekend. My birthday is tomorrow so getting this haircut really meant a lot to me today. I guess it wasn't meant to be :( read more

Kells did an absolute AMAZING, THOROUGH job at fixing my awful hair that had been at the mercy of hair stylists in a remote foreign land who were not familiar with my kind of hair, who could not color roots, and who did not know how to cut my hair stylishly. Back to Kells...what did she do exactly? [[HIGHLIGHT]]Firstly, she listened to me, and cut through my indecisiveness (I am admittedly not great at telling hairstylists what I want).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I showed her one photo of a very old photo of me that I liked, and told her that I really needed a cut that would grow out well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I don't have long hair, but I like balayage as a technique to give dimension to the color. She was like "got it" and gave me a great cut that made me look 20 years younger, and the balayage so I don't look like a one-dimensional Elvira. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Everyone loves it and I'm super-happy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You will pay for what you get; I was ready for that and have zero regrets, except that I hadn't come to Salon Estique sooner! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Sue is the bomb! I was having a hair crisis and she knew exactly what to do for my bleached blonde curly hair - adding some dimension.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]All the ladies here are super cute embracing their natural curly hair[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Elsa did an amazing job! 20/10, would come back again. [[HIGHLIGHT]]She was very sweet and made the whole experience worth it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My hair has never looked better! read more

I have always had a such a hard time figuring my curls out. Amber has truly saved my hair. I had a bad experience else where and I was so worried about my curls coming back. She made it possible and gave me so many tips and tricks to revive them. Amber has magical talents with hair. The service is absolutely incredible. Her head massages are so soothing and stress relieving as well. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The general vibe in this salon is amazing all of the stylists are so vibrant with passion to make their clients happy![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Loved Kels! Great experience and she did a great job getting my curls and volume back to how I like them. I've had Suellen in the past and love her too but she was out of town. You can't go wrong her no matter the stylist you have! read more

OMG!!! okay this will be a long one. Suellen and Emma were absolutely amazing! My hair has NEVER looked this amazing.

All the staff was super sweet and welcoming, I was a bit nervous for such a big chop and I was comforted every step of the way.

After getting my hair cut and colored here, I had my mom get her hair done here as well. If you have curly hair and don't know how to tame it, these ladies will make you look like a million bucks. They have people that specialize in curly hair, and everyone I saw leave the salon after getting their curls done looked amazing. I tried this salon after my last experience elsewhere left me with a sore head from the girl ripping the foils out. I will continue to get my hair done here because they are everything I've been looking for in a salon. read more

Salon Estique is a fabulous salon offering exceptional cuts and color tailored for each client's style. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Shout out to Kells![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I'm a relatively difficult client. My hair is split half blonde half black and it's also curly. The stylists here have always managed to figure my hair out and make my hair look great. The salon is also super cute! read more

I previously gave 5 stars based on my daughter getting her hair cut here. Now after getting my own hair cut here, I wish I could give more stars!! Where has Salon Estique been all my life??!!! So I am someone who has always struggled to style my hair. I never have been able to make my curls/ waves look good, which usually means I end up just pulling my hair up in a bun. I came here a few weeks ago to get a haircut and wow! Not only did I get a great cut, I was taught how to easily style my hair to make it look great all the time! I can now style my hair in 5 minutes! So amazing. When I came in, I was thinking maybe I wanted a perm or something to achieve better curls. I was told to wait and see if I could use the techniques I learned to style my own hair. Such great advice and so happy! read more

Not only did my hair come out really good but Amber made me excited for a bold new hair cut. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Atmosphere is as enjoyable as the staff.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will definitely be coming again. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Good job Amber![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Really liked this place and my hair dresser no hard feelings to her. I booked a blow dry and straighten and got a small trim to just cut a few mm of hair and shape it. I was going to Vegas for the weekend and just wanted to get glamorous. Woke up the next morning after taking precautions and buying a silk bonnet and pillowcase and my hair was completely fried and just ruined. Cried my eyes out the next morning because I thought it would look good for at least the weekend as the stylist said if I took care of it , it could last the week. Ended up putting my hair up and paid almost 200$ for this before the tip. I called and left a message heard no response due to them not being open. Had to call again and the receptionist said the manager saw it and was going to call me soon. I ended up getting that call from the manager Nico and it was so disappointing. Not only was she entirely rude about everything but refused it was their fault at all stating the hair dresser confirmed she used a low heat. Only offered me a 27$ refund due to that being the cost of the blow dry and straighten even though my appointment was based off that so not understanding how it was a 130$+ haircut when I barely even trimmed it. She the. Stated I could go in for a treatment if it was damaged but she didn't think it was. I am so disappointed as I had just recently started going and felt as though it was not taken care of whatsoever. I had to go to another hair dresser who I paid to completely cut my hair and treat it even he agreed it was fried and just poorly treated. I have naturally curly hair and really liked how they treated me with my hair. I called and asked if they could straighten it before and was promised they could but unfortunately the job was not up to par. Never going back they lost 2 customers who were really looking forward to a hair journey. read more

I've been looking for a curly hair stylist, and a friend recommended me to Salon Estique. I'm so glad she did, because I had an amazing experience! I saw Suellen, and she was absolutely fabulous!! Great personality and has a passion for curly hair. She walked through what my current routine was, and then went through what sort of things I was doing right, and what sort of things I should change. It's been a month since my cut, but I have found her advice to be incredibly helpful and has upped my curly hair game to a whole new level! If you are looking for a curly hair stylist, absolutely call Salon Estique!! read more

This is so much more than hair- this is becoming YOURSELF. A little backstory: my sister has kept her hair covered for over a decade for religious reasons. She also never felt that she properly knew how to manage her curls. Enter Suellen. She taught my sister how to truly nourish and embrace her ringlets, and for the first time at age 33, my sister stopped covering her head and started receiving compliments on now what is her best feature! After having seen her transformation, I thought I may also be capable of understanding my curl pattern and decreasing getting-ready time, maintenance and even skipping the dreaded blow dryer; my hair had been round-brushed and flat- ironed since high school. While I was in town, I knew I had to give Suellen a try. I was incredibly nervous, but her own beautiful curls and demeanor put me at ease immediately. I used to cringe when I would get my hair cut- when it is straight, shrinkage matters. With the Devacut, the shorter the layers, the more flirtation and bounce. She taught me so much about the products that would do right by my hair, and I even learned that a little heat from a blow dry and brushing when wet would not get me excommunicated from the church of curls. I was so overjoyed with the results, that I DANCED with Suellen in the back of the shop when we were done. Also, her assistant Arlene was a huge help, and so sweet! I WILL be making the trip every 4 months to AZ for my Devacut with Su. No one else is allowed to touch these locks! read more

If you have curly hair and are not seeing SueEllen, you're making a mistake. Not only did she do an amazing job cutting and styling my hair, especially considering I hadn't had a haircut in almost 18 months because of covid, but she also made the appointment an educational session. She talked me through everything that she was doing and gave me tons of tips on how to best care for my hair. The only downside is she is so good that the wait can be lengthy to be seen by her. Between a cancellation on the salon's end, and one cancellation on mine, my first appointment took about 6 months to happen. My second one was much easier to book, but make sure to plan at least a few months out. read more

I came here a few months ago in need of a curly haircut. I had my haircut done by Suellen and she was amazing. The whole staff at the salon were super nice and knowledgeable about curly hair. Suellen gave me some amazing tips on how to take care of my hair better and addressed a lot of my hair concerns. If you are looking for a good curly hairstylist I would recommend Suellen. She made me feel super comfortable while sitting in her chair. read more

I've been seeing Sue here for a few years now and my curls never looked better! I also have seen Emma here too for cuts and color and she does an incredible job, too! Love the salon and all the girlies there! read more

***Update: The stylist and I guess most of the salon doesn't offer kids cuts outside of a curly kids cut. While I was not told they didn't have the service I was requesting or that I'd be charged a woman's cut and style price, the salon updated my charge this afternoon after opening to the woman's regular cut price of $62. So def amazing if you're an adult but if you're trying to bring your kiddo they unfortunately don't have kids pricing. *** ***Update 2: I was originally told on 6/01 the refund would hit in 3-5 days. I waited until 6/16 to reach out as it still hadn't hit. I received a text on 6/17 that an $18 refund would be given and requesting my email for receipt. I immediately responded back advising the refund should be $48 not $18 as I paid $100 for the cut and was told it would be updated to $62. I did not receive a response it's now 6/22 and I've only received the $18 refund. I text again today to explain I was quoted and charged $80 for a kids curly cut and then was charged $100 for my son. Hoping this refund is resolved soon. It's been 3 weeks since the day I was initially told the cut would be adjusted to a woman's cut price* Let's preface this by saying that my sister has been a stylist in high end salons for over a decade. I have been a loyal customer coming here for curly cuts. I have ZERO issue paying $$$ for services when it's warranted. My first cut was just under $200. It was amazing. My last cut was a color and curly cut for over $550, again didn't bat an eye at all!!! There was a mix up with missing my appointment time after that because I didn't get a reminder text or email. I called right in at 9:00 am (opening time that day) to find out my appointment time and it was at 9 . They said it would be too late even if I left right then and told me to reschedule. Okay no issue I paid the $75 late cancellation fee without complaint. I'm literally not someone to complain about the cost of services. I wouldn't want someone to do that to my sister. I understand the training and everything that goes into this. I've referred several family members who booked and paid for their services and LOVED them. I've shouted their praises in my moms group of over 12k members every time someone asks for a curly rec However, I went today to for my daughter's kids curly cut. I was quoted $80 and charged $80. I've VERY happy with that cut. I called on my way out of the house to the appointment to see if I can add an appointment for my 4 year old son they said they could accommodate that. He does NOT have curly hair it wavy at best unless you twirl it and I made it very clear I did not want to book a curly cut for him. (This place has curl specialists but also offers regular non curly cuts) Everything goes well. The manager also named Desiree assisted my stylist in how to cut his hair and helped my stylist a lot. Love his cut as well. At the end I grabbed 2 products and a hair accessory, tipped 20% and paid without complaint. One lady initially was checking me out. A second woman who is usually at the front (she has the cutest Gengar cardigan I had complimented her on at a previous visit) walks up and says something to her that she will check me out so that I'm charged the "right price." They hand me the receipt and I was charged one HUNDRED dollars for a FOUR year olds regular scissor cut. Now they added layers and texture so I was expecting $40-50 tops. Let's keep in mind per their website a WOMANS hair cut and style starts at $61. When I went to checkout the lady goes oh so it's $80 for (my daughter's) cut and $100 for yours. I tell her... umm I didn't get my hair cut. But he did and point to my son. She goes okay so it's $100 for his. The receipt literally said for a Deva curly cut. I say well that doesn't make sense he had a regular non curly hair cut. She goes oh it's because they used the diffuser (for 3 minutes I might add let's also keep in mind I didn't ask for his hair to be styled she dried it really fast so she could finish the cut) I again say okay but that doesn't make sense because why would his regular scissor cut cost more than her curly cut? She goes well it's based off time. Again my 10 year old daughters $80 curly cut took 2.5 hours. My sons cut took at max (if I'm being extremely generous) 30 minutes but was more? But again I'm not the kind of person to argue, get loud etc. so I just said well the price is the price. Front desk lady goes yea well that's the price and I left. Will I keep going back for curly cuts? Probably, the (2) stylist I've used for curly cuts are both 5 stars. Amazing people. But again $100 for this cut? Absolutely insane read more

I had a hair cut and partial weave, by one of the owners, paying $300 for service and tip. However, during shampoo process, without giving me a smock, my back got soaked. After the shampoo, the owner had her assistant blow dry my soaking back. After leaving, I shopped at a couple different stores. That evening, as I took off my blouse, I saw half of the back was no longer beige-it was white. I'm surprised no one at the salon told me this as I left, visiting a couple stores with bleached half moon on back of blouse. When I inquired of compensation, at least for blouse value of $30, for service I was scheduling, I was as told they'd apply $30 toward merchandise only. I decided to no longer patronize this business. $300 out of my pocket, and blouse I can no longer wear, but if I buy merchandise, they'll discount it. I don't need merchandise. Shoddy service and lack of proper compensation. read more

They say they stand 100% guarantee by their services and do not. Then when you try and discuss the dissatisfaction with them they get angry. And never use them for bridal hair styling. They were rude and rushed and we felt more like an inconvenience than the happy occasion we were expecting. read more

I had my haircut by Kelly. It is absolutely terrible. Her technicque was sloppy, my hair type is best when cut vertically amd moreover the trim i asked for (follow the existing shape is what I said) was not what I received. I was also charged for a Ouidad cut which is based on carving and slicing and vertical direction methodology but that is not what I received. Also another reason q Ouidad is pricey is they provide some styling tips and and they apply a ton of product. Iidn't even have a blown dry. This was per my request but in any event I told the girl when I made the appt that I wanted a regular haircut following the wedge shape I already had but Kelly should've corrected the appt type, she knows what type of service she provided but no, I was charged $127 plus my sons fee which HE was also charged for a puidad that he did not receive. Check out was also a nightmare when the girl asked if I would leave a cash or credit tip (I hadn't planned on topping at all, first because my hair looked so bad and two, because it was not the service I asked for and three because Kelly is the owner so that price I am paying is all hers, she is not working for tips. Anyway I thought it was impolite to assume I was tipping but I said I would pay $10 tip, she entered 10%. I asked her to fix it and she said she didn't know how. I left totally annoyed. I will not go back here. read more

Paid $150 to get my hair hacked by a lady who kept asking the stylist behind her what to do next. She randomly picked up pieces and chopped inches off. It was literally the worst haircut of my life! It was so bad that the next week, I went into a different salon and had my hair cut short. read more
