I've been going to Uyen since 2021, and it's truly the most beautiful my hair has ever looked…read more My natural hair is very fine, and when I first came to her it was just past my shoulders. Uyen added extensions and created a gorgeous bronde color. Over the years we've tried different looks, from very blonde to closer to my natural dark blonde, and I loved it every time! What impressed me the most is how healthy my hair stayed the entire time. After wearing extensions for over two years, I took them out for a while and my natural hair actually looked about 30% thicker than before (The thickest it has ever been). I just got a new set of extensions again and absolutely love them. I went from short hair to almost waist length, and this time we did wavy extensions to match my natural texture. It came out beautifully - the color matches perfectly and it looks very natural, even when I let my hair air dry without styling. Uyen is incredibly attentive and works very meticulously. She really listens and takes the time to make everything blend perfectly. I completely trust her with my hair and highly recommend her, especially if you have fine hair and are considering extensions.

When…read moreI told her the bottom extensions came out, she blamed it on conditioner and fired me saying I was rude when I only informed her. She went from $300 to lift to $400 and then 500. She left the wefts not glued bf she put them in. Therefore tattered and damaged ends on the weft. When I told her she asked what happened. I'm not a hair dresser and trying to find someone on a Sunday to fix my mess was what I had to do because of work. I have known her for over ten years and because I couldn't get back to her ASAP she canceled all my future appointments with no phone call but through text which is extremely disrespectful. Also I referred several people and she charged me $150 more than the people I referred. I always tip 20%. I'm so glad this happened because when she was told not to worry about it I found someone to fix my hair. She asked if I wanted to come in on Tuesday when she's known for 12 years I work 12 hour days. I had no expectations of her coming in but she offered to take then out but would not put them back in. That would've been a nightmare. This has happened a couple times now. She over charges and her work has gone so down hill. I just didn't want to deal with my work and finding someone new. I should've left when she just out of no where started upping her prices only on me. I work extremely hard and she upped her prices and lowered her standards knowing I'd pay it. Don't come here!

She not only does an amazing job at making your hair fantasy real, but she does what's best to keep your hair healthy for a long period of time. She provides recommendations so you don't kill your hair and is honest about repercussions if you want to do something harmful to your hair. But gives you space to know it's still, your choice at the end of the day. This is why I did invisible bead extensions! I've colored my hair for years and it's become damaged & thin, but i love long & blonde hair so much. So, getting extensions was the best step forward. She handsewn extensions into my hair, the extensions were tight only for the first day, but now I forget I have them unless I touch my head. She did a great job and They, the extensions, are amazing !!

The lady told me she doesn't have time now (even though I left the salon five minutes before I came back) so I told her I'm coming back to town in two weeks because I flew out especially to get my hair done and she said she doesn't know how it's gonna grow out in two weeks so she'll see if she could get it fixed now. All I could think when she said that was did I really just spent $600 on something that might start to grow out in only two weeks??? also there's not much of a difference between before and after my hair, every time I told her I wanted something done specifically she told me she was used to doing a different way and that's how she's gonna do it so I felt like I wasn't really heard as well. Besides all that the lady that did my hair was really nice. But- Super super disappointed. Now I'm gonna have to go somewhere else and pay extra money to get it fixed the way I wanted to. More reviews like mine would have saved me my money for sure, which is why I'm writing this. Do not recommend with my personal experience.

I have been a client of Cory Miller's for years. I have never been more pampered in my life. My skin is always refreshed and I feel much younger every time I get a facial. The atmosphere at Salon Mint is relaxing, clean, and as the name suggests.....fresh and minty. Beautiful music plays while you are spoiled with an incredible facial. Always a beautiful fragrance wafting through but never overwhelming. I really do think Cory's salon is unique. I know the hair stylists that also have booths there, really love the location.

My hair dresser is out of town with an emergency. So I came here. The owner is nice I just wish she had listened. I didn't want my hair darker in any way shape or form. I wanted it exactly how I always have it, as blonde as possible. Why would I want my hair any darker? Why? I wanted platinum blonde which it was. Why would you put brown low lights in a platinum blonde? My real hair dresser gave me the formula all you had to do was follow it! I spent money, tipped you 20% and now I have to go get my hair fixed. I didnt ask you to do whatever you wanted to my hair. I showed you a formula and wanted you to follow it. Its my hair. Im the one paying for it. I have had it platinum blonde for a very long time! Why would you make my hair darker? I didnt want it any darker. I wanted the exact same color that it was. Ugh. The more I look in the mirror the more angry I get. I dont recommend going here if you are a blonde. Or if you want your hair the way that you want it. I seriously dont understand. Why would you ruin my hair? The place is clean. She was friendly but I am beyond mad. I didnt ask for anything to change about my hair just to touch up my roots.
