Definitely a VERY late review. First off, I asked for my hair to look like the picture. Yes ik my hair isn't as long or thick as hers, but that was not the point I wanted THAT COLOR. She let me choose the color but when I chose it I told her solely, I wanted to look like that picture so whatever u can to get me there I'm down. Customer service was pretty good had some nice convo's but when my hair was done and she knew I felt off about it by my reaction, but she was open to helping me fix my problems. read more

The pictures don't do justice. I came in with extremely fried hair. Nicole did an amazing job! She washed my hair and put treatment. She then cut it while wet and blow dried my hair after. My hair really needed this TLC. My hair has so much more volume now and looks 10 times healthier. read more

I'm so happy I found Salon Michelle! It's a full service hair salon that I feel comfortable taking my whole family too. We saw Katie and she did a phenomenal job on my haircut and was sweet and accommodating to my kiddos. And they have super cute, local swag in the front. I've bought some birthday and Mother's Day gifts and it feels so much better supporting local rather than the big corporations. And I love that the owner leads quarterly clean ups of the city. All around great people and hair cuts! read more

This place is amazing. My hair has never felt and looked soo good, one of the best haircuts I've ever had. I saw Katey both times, she is friendly, informative, and asks a lot of questions to make sure she makes your service perfect. The entire staff is great. So happy to have found my local hair salon. read more

Talia was AWESOME! She did a great job cutting my curly hair. She was super knowledgeable about products and helped explain to me how to better care for my curls. And helped me set up an idea on how to get my hair where I want it to be. Can't wait to go back next time I need a cut. read more

Katey is such a great stylist! I went to see her after a couple of not great experiences at my previous salon and she gave me the bangs of my dreams! I've been to her a few times now and I'm so pleased with how my hair looks and feels. She asks questions to understand what I'm going for and what my goals are for growing out my hair and maintaining my bangs. She is really friendly and easy to talk to and she truly is awesome at what she does. I would probably drive an hour to have my hair cut by katey, but Lucky for me the salon is so close to my home. The owner, Michelle, is also super friendly and really cares about her staff, clients and community. I'm so glad I found this place in my own hometown. Thank you Katey and Michelle! read more

If you don't have a pic of exactly what you want. AVOID Michelle's. I carefully explained what I wanted, the stylist seemed to understand, then had a question and talked to Michelle. That's when it all went to hell. I'm in my 60s, and this is the WORST haircut I have ever had, bar none!!! It will take 6-8 months before my hair has enough length to try for the cut that they should have given me in the first place. Meanwhile, I have purchased a wig, my first since I was very young. Michelle's quip that at least I did not have cancer like her friend who would lose her hair, did nothing to soften the blow of this horrible haircut. read more

Michelle is awesome (and so is Felicia!) This place keeps me coming back, every time. Consistently great hair cuts, and impressive color blending. read more

I have been a client of Salon Michelle for at least 5 years. Michelle herself cuts my hair perfectly, which I change slightly depending on the season. Michelle is friendly and always open to good conversation. Felicia cuts my wife's hair and daughters' hair as well and delivers excellently each time. The Salon is always clean, has great hair products, and their appointment system sends reminders to a mobile phone. If you need a consistent haircut, I recommend Salon Michelle! read more

Thanks for the fun time and great hair cut and color, Michelle! I love it! You're always very professional and I hope you and your employees have a wonderful holiday season. See you in January. I highly recommended this hair salon. read more

Yesterday while driving to school, I caught a glimpse of the caterpillars that had taken the place of my normally manicured brows. I decided that I needed to do an emergency wax stop, so I searched in the immediate area for a highly rated esthetician. I noticed that Salon Michelle had good ratings and stopped by. As luck would have it, the salon owner, Michele, had received a cancellation, and would be able to help me immediately. I got a good feeling the moment I entered her salon. Spotless, cool colors, great smells AND good music? Count me in. Michelle is a hip chick, a straight shooter who takes pride in her salon and her work. She didn't rush through the waxing, talked to me about the benefits of the wax they use, and how it is beneficial for even sensitive skin. She did a tremendous job on my brows/lip combo, and I look forward to future visits. My only regret? I didn't find her sooner! I'll return, and look forward to trying her other services. read more

I got a Brazilian wax with Janesa here but my experience wasn't great. Janesa is very nice and friendly and I feel that she did her best. However, she seemed uncomfortable and this was the most painful wax I have ever gotten. I've been getting regular Brazilians for 18 months and tried this place because my regular one is always booked if I try to go last minute. I've also never had a wax that took so long. It took a full hour and let's just say the job was still not completely done. I do want to stress though that Janesa was nice and tried her best. My impression was that maybe the quality of the wax here isn't the best because she seemed to have trouble ripping it off and it wouldn't get all the hairs. Let's just say a LOT of picking and yanking was involved. This was the first time I considered leaving in the middle of wax and not waiting for it to be over. read more

I got an absolutely beautiful color job - full foil, blond - and I look 10 years younger. It's amazing what great hair can do! THANK YOU, Michelle Fawcett!! Michelle, you are AMAZING and I look fantastic! read more

Rachael D is a must see stylist. She hails from Seattle to bring her talents to little Des Moines! Woot. Thanks Rachelle for a great cut & color! read more

I'd never been in before and made the appt because I live just a couple blocks away. I wasn't expecting much considering I've always hated my hair. But OMG Michelle is a miracle worker. I went in with a nightmare of bad coloring and a partially grown out pixie cut, and left 3 hours later with an amazing hair do! She spent so much time making sure she had perfected everything. :):) And the products she recommended weren't bogus, I actually use them every day and they're not complicated. She literally walked me through how to style my hair in a way that non hairdressers can understand. Michelle is freakin amazing!! :):) read more

I have been to over 50 barbers/stylists and I have concluded that JEREMY ROSS at Salon Michele is the guy you want to see for your hair. He is the barber of barbers (he gives other barbers their haircut) :) Jeremy always gives me a consistent cut that is immaculate. Not one hair is out of place and every line is extra clean!. He can blend and fade anything. I used to get #3's on the side because my hair didn't look right any shorter. Eventually I went down to #2 then down to #1 and now #1/2 to #1 blend. He meticulously customizes blends and fades based on your natural hair pattern, face structure, and head shape. Turns out that all of the other dozens of barbers I tried just didn't know what they were doing. You might know a barber who can do a great fade or a stylist who works well with medium to long hair. Jeremy has the unique ability to do both. In my experience barbers who give me good fades and blends dont know what they are doing up top. The barbers that can work with 3-5" hair on top cant blend it into my #1 on thr sides. This guy can work with any length and any style. Over the years I have tried fohawks, mohawks, hard parts, pomp's, side parts, short fades, undercuts -- he can do it all. The only complaint I have is that he is in Des Moines and I have to drive 25 miles to get a haircut. It sucks because I don't have any other options, anytime I try someone new they screw up my hair and I instantly regret it. I quickly realized a good barber is hard find and that's why I'll keep coming. read more

Felicia does a great job every time and always has some good advice for how to take care of my hair. Plus she's super funny and down to earth. The salon is laid back and is a great place to spend some time getting pretty. read more

Salon Michelle is in a great location, has a fun vibe and endless opportunities to choose from to improve your hair style! I have gone here for 2 years and loved every visit and been extremely happy with all of my results! Felicia is the BESTTTTTT! read more

I have been seeing Michelle for about 5 years, and no joke --- I get a compliment on my hair at least once a week. I had been wearing a curly permed bob that I was tired of, and she suggested an alternative. I also told her how much work I was wiling to put into my hair each morning (none) and that I wanted some color. I walked out with the best haircut in the world. It takes 3 min to blow dry with my fingers and then I just spritz it with some hairspray and go. Michelle is truly an artist. I'll never let anyone else touch my hair. read more

I have been getting my hair cut by Rachel for two years. She does great work on my hair and deals with my neurosis in style. The employees are very welcoming and make the entire experience enjoyable. read more

I have a hard time going to new places but I needed to change my hairdresser. I got to meet Jamesa, she was absolutely fantastic! I have short and very thick hair and she took care of me better than the place I was going to for 13 years. I will be coming here from now on. Everyone was so sweet and all the customers seemed happy! Thanks again Jamesa!!!!! read more

Friendly and professional atmosphere. Jeramy Ross is excellent. Great colorist and stylist. I always get several compliments.

I came here about a month ago for a sort of last minute brazilian since I couldn't get in to my normal lady on such short notice. I figured I would give it a go since the reviews, although all for hair styling, are all great so it should be OK. I have been getting brazilian waxes for over a year now, and I have to say that this was a bit of an uncomfortable experience for me. I'm giving two stars because Jamesa was very nice and sweet, but she really didn't seem comfortable with what she was doing at all. She had me try 3 or 4 different positions before she found a good way to get the back, and the rest of the process took a pretty long time. Almost any time she ripped off the wax, she seemed quite hesitant and didn't want to hurt me even though I kept saying to just go for it and get it over with. Again, Jamesa was very sweet and her hygiene practices were great. I enjoyed having the oil after and the warm towel to wipe off excess wax. My main impression was that she needs to get a little more comfortable and confident with was she's doing. If a longer process is OK with you, give this place a try! read more

Fantastic place. Rachel is incredible. My curly hair has been unruly all my life but Rachel put it in check. I have a great cut and the color has been easy to maintain. I don't mind stopping in to see her, my hair cuts/color is no longer a chore. Thank you! read more

Wonderful small business with a warm and inviting atmosphere. Never feel rushed, Michelle always takes her time and Felicia saved me from a Senior Ball motherhood fail when she squeezed my high school senior in with five minute's notice. Beautiful work, lovely salon, high quality products and I LOVE the text reminders. read more

Rachelle rocked my socks off with the most amazing hair cut. She took a dozen different looks and pulled it into an epic cut that frames my face beautifully. She took my vision and brought it to life. She is a true artist and I can't wait to recommend her to folks on Monday at work! She is passionate about what she does and real and she made my week. Love all of the people who work at salon Michelle. Their professionalism and work is top notch and their recommendations and creativity never fail. read more

The same person has cut my hair for over 20 years. I now live in Des Moines and hate going to Seattle on the weekend. It was hard to make the switch but so happy that I found Michelle. She did a great job! And friendly and funny to boot! I highly recommend this salon. read more

I have been going to Salon Michelle for years, in fact my son was the front desk/towel person all through high school, but today is the first time I felt compelled to right a review! I was 1 hour late for my appointment, yes 1 embarrassing hour late! I felt so guilty however; Felicia stayed late and made it work! This is the definition of extraordinary service! I don't have enough room to type to even get into how cute my hair is! I look and feel younger than I have in years and I know my hair has lots to do with that! Lastly, Felicia is very funny and entertaining, I know I will belly laugh at least once every time I see her. Best Salon in Des Moines by far! read more

Contemporary, warm place in Des Moines. Nice staff, great location, and always playing good music. Jeramy does awesome work!

I've been seeing Felicia for a couple years now. She does my cut color and it always turns out great. I've receive so many compliments. Felicia also did my makeup and hairstyle for my engagement photos and it turned out exactly how I imaged. I would recommend anyone to come here. read more
