I loved my hair color, but I'm warning others to keep their credit cards close! After using it to pay for services, my card was zapped and the thief purchased food and airline tickets. This was the only place my card was out of my hands. Get trustworthy staff :( read more

Jenny is awesome. She takes the time to understand what you're trying to achieve and how your hair will respond to what you're trying to do. Definitely recommend. read more

Bianca has been doing my hair for over a year now. She always gets the balayage right. I've tried 3 other salons in the neighborhood and Sima is the best. The staff is friendly, salon is clean, and the pricing is actually cheaper than other upscale ones I've tried. read more

Sima's Salon & Spa - Balayage - Hair Salons Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

See all

In desperate need of a haircut, I called Sima's on a whim. I had been once before for a facial, which was great, but never a hair appointment. I was continuing to drive to VA for my hair cut/color. Michele was able to see me the same day I called. Lucky for me! I was growing out a pixie and she took the time to look at pics and listen to where I was trying to get with my style. The following month, I had her do my color and I loved it. I am so happy to find someone like Michele here in Canton! read more

Becca cut my hair for years and did an incredible job! The entire staff is very friendly and it is an extremely comfortable environment. Couldn't recommend more! read more

My. Girl. Becca. AKA my hair-y godmother (she isn't hairy, don't worry). One of my best friends referred me to her after a string of bad haircuts, bad layers, harsh winters, you guys know the deal. Ever since then I haven't considered going anywhere else. From the beginning, she gives you a great cut and she is great at the hair chair small talk. She listens to what you want but offers (good) opinions if you ask for them. She'll also tell you when you need to stop doing a style, but only if you really need to hear it. This weekend we shook it up a little and worked in some balayage, which she does incredibly. (I tried it because the aforementioned friend has had tem for years and they've always looked SO GOOD.) Everyone my friend has recommended go to Becca... still goes to Becca. Everyone I've recommended Becca to... still goes to Becca (including my husband, and he has rarely held hair loyalty to any stylist). She works wonders and you'll leave feeling incredibly good looking. Prepare to accept compliments from strangers too. read more

I love going to Sima's Salon in Canton! My hair stylist, Meagan Is wonderful and extremely talented! She is so helpful and pleasant and always on the cutting edge of style with new ideas for what to do with my hair. She is creative and innovative and usually always has a game plan In mind, but still takes the time to listen to my thoughts as well. Then she does her best to make it all happen in the best way possible. Hands down, she's just a great hairdresser! I'm always happy when I leave. She not only knows how to style, but she's also an expert on color too! Lenann, the Esthetician has also given me several of the most amazing facials at Sima's. She is fantastic and the products she uses are incredible! Her facials never fail to leave my skin feeling super clean, very soft and literally just glowing every-time. And, Lenann really knows how to make you feel pampered and relaxed. She's awesome! Also, the owner, (Sima) and the rest of the staff at the Salon are always super friendly, very welcoming, extremely accommodating and very pleasant. They really do care about making everyone's visit as relaxing and enjoyable as possible. It's a great environment to spend a couple of hours in. It's just always a pleasant experience with an excellent outcome, so if you haven't been there yet-I highly recommend going. Everyone at Sima's Salon is awesome! read more

Best hair experience I've had, no question, since moving here five and a half years ago. That's a lot of hair appts to go up against. In order of events: First- FREE PARKING. In Baltimore. No problem finding a spot at 3p. Second- lovely front desk crew. Greeted me by name (I was the only person with an appt at that time, but still!) Third- Becca was lovely- funny and charming and told me to tell my friend that she had a referral discount coming to her. Understood exactly what I wanted and was (seemed) excited to work with me. Fourth- Idk how, but the curls I left the salon with are beautifully intact two days later. I'll stop- not overpriced, felt comfortable the whole time, quick without being rushed. **********'m Loved my experience and will be back next month!! read more

I started going to Sima's back in the early 2000s when I lived in Canton. After spending a few years in Baltimore I moved back to Virginia. I have tried to find another stylist that gets it EVEN CLOSE to the perfection (at least as far as my frizzie hair is concerned) that Sima gives me (I think it is because she has hair that my hair dreams of being on a good day!). So, now I trek, an hour each way (if there's not traffic on the Beltway or the BW Pkwy, right) in order to go to a place where I feel welcome and know I'll always walk out with the best my hair can be!!! Also, just plain love Sima. She's so very nice and caring! And everyone in the shop follows her example! Can't say enough good things. :) read more

We made a last minute appointment here before a Saturday wedding for a cut and style and were greeted warmly and promptly by the front desk staff and the stylist taking care of my aunt's hair. We picked this place off the Yelp reviews and the fact that it was walking distance from our Airbnb and were very impressed with the service and haircut that my aunt received. If we lived in Baltimore we'd certainly be back. read more

Went here for a haircut with Lynn. They were able to fit me in last minute which was nice. I was looking for just a trim and to lighten the load on my head with some more layers (I have a LOT of hair), and I felt like the experience was just okay. After explaining what I wanted, she said I already had layers so she would just trim what I already had. I hear great things about other stylists, so I may go back and try someone else to see if they can work with my thick, straight hair to not feel like 100 pounds weighing me down. I have also been here with Lenann for a Brazilian wax and facial. She is super friendly and makes you feel comfortable. They use a hard wax for the Brazilian so there is minimal pain. The facial uses Eminence products which I am not familiar with, but all of the products smelled really nice. The whole experience was relaxing, starting with some aromatherapy, soothing music, and calm atmosphere. She gives an amazing neck and shoulder massage as well with it. Lenann gave me some samples of a cleanser and moisturizer to try out which I haven't had a chance to try yet. Highly recommend! read more

Going to Meagan has been the best decision I've ever made for my hair! I first visited her after a very bad hair cutting experience at another salon about 4 years ago. A friend of mine always had the best haircuts, so I asked where she got her hair done, and she got me in touch with Meagan at Sima's. I even continued to see her when I was living in Philly, and now that I'm in Boston have been trying to find a way to get down there again. Meagan always makes me feel comfortable and is always honest about any questions I ask. My cuts and color always come out looking wonderful - I have not had a bad hair day since I've been sitting in her chair! read more

sima is an artistic, well seasoned stylist with excellent hair cutting skills! i highly recommend her!

We called in on Thursday to set an appointment for my son's haircut . We were offered an appointment at 2pm on Xmas Eve and was told that was the only appointment available and that someone would surely be available if we took that time slot . Here at 11 o'clock we received a call that no one will beable to cut his hair . Usually not a big deal how ever it is Xmas Eve and not a chance of scheduling him another appointment today AnyWhere . To have a business schedule an appointment on a holiday is one thing . After setting time in your schedule aside to make the appointment . Then having them selfishly cancel it a couple hours before is another . Only to have the receptionist try to talk me into bringing my 11 year old son in for a manicure rather then a haircut . Absolutely ridiculous . read more

I've been to Sima's several times - had my hair cut and/or highlighted by Sima, Michele and Lynn. All the stylists here are amazing. The salon is modern and chic. Love this place! read more

Exceeded my expectations ! My regular stylist was not avail. I was very in need of a cut. I heard only great things with regards to this 25 yr. Canton landmark on the square so decided to give it a shot. Rebecca is top notch! She asked all the right questions and executed my cut to perfection. I'm a bit picky when it comes to my hair and I was beyond pleased. Rebecca is a top notch professional read more

AWESOME BROW SHAPING AND TINT!!! I was so nervous to get my brows tinted but it is amazing!! I have always plucked and filled in my brows by myself. I didn't know what I was missing until I saw the amazing results from a quick service from Tara. Tara works on the 3rd floor of Sima's and is an expert! I couldn't be happier with the results and overall experience!! I no longer need to spend time tediously trying to fill-in, shape, pluck, and make my brows even because after the tint and shaping they are perfect and I get to wake up with ready to go brows!!! Seriously do yourself a favor and go see Tara at Sima's!! read more

I had my regular hair cut there on Friday -which is always great- along with a scheduled facial and pedicure. I cannot say enough about the woman who did my facial and I've had many over the years. She was wonderful. Great hands. There was a minimum of chatter - she just talked about what she was doing next. And there was absolutely NO attempt to sell product. Oh and Content their manicurist is awesome, sweet and kind. She did a great pedicure. Salon has a very nice vibe, super clean and very relaxing atmosphere. read more

I just realized today (August 13, 2017) that I still had a negative review in place for Sima's Salon from all the way back in February 2014. I did leave the same negative review back then on multiple forums and I subsequently removed/updated them, I thought everywhere, but apparently I missed to update it on Yelp. If you still find the old negative review somewhere, please ignore... After a rocky start (hence the negative review) in which the shop was closed on a day after some minor winter storm and we weren't informed (making a wasted visit) - something that was the fault of the front desk staff - Lenann truly came through, apologized, and convinced us to give them another chance, which we did. Both my wife and I then became a regular customer and a friend. We had about 6 weekly services (both of us each) and that lasted for more than 3 years. We recently moved from Baltimore and that's what ended the relationship, but we otherwise would have remained lifelong customers. read more

"Knock, knock." "Who's there?" "YOUR HAIR LOOKS FABULOUS!!!" Get used to hearing that a lot after getting your hair done by Rebecca Murry (or anyone there, really). I first came here a couple years ago after a stylist from a different salon had bleached my hair (I asked to lighten it "a LITTLE bit") to the point that my hair was limp, thin and had actually gone from below the shoulders to a bob due to the chemical damage. My hair is back to normal now and healthier than ever! I also have gotten brow waxing/tinting and facials at Sima's -- SO FABULOUS! read more

I was nervous to get my first personal spray tan and couldn't be happier with the results! I had always done booth spray tan and it always left me feeling a little orange. Not this time! Sam was amazing and made me feel extremely comfortable. My tan was perfection and since I was standing in a wedding that was extremely important! I really appreciate the time that was spent to make me look perfect and will surely be back! read more

I love this salon. I have jumped around for years looking for a stylist who is good at balayage and who sincerely wants to make the client happy and I have found that in Becca! She is amazing and does wonders for your hair whether you are looking for cut, color, style, or extensions - she does it all. She also is the sweetest and wants to make sure you are always 100% satisfied. I highly recommend her if you are picky with your hair like I am! I get tons of compliments on my hair - you can't go wrong with her! read more

The best service and best haircut and highlights in Baltimore! Not only is Leah a great stylist, but she also gives me great products recommendations and tips on how to style my hair at home. I'm never going anywhere else to get it done! Same goes for Lenann, who does all of my waxing. She is quick, comforting, and makes it as painless as possible! read more

Great experience! Lenann was great. I would highly recommend her. Other employees at the salon were also very welcoming.

For eleven years I was driving to NJ to get my hair done because I couldnt find a place in Baltimore that I loved. Well mission accomplished. I started going about 6 months ago based on a recommendation from a friend and could not be happier. Leah is my go to girl for all things cut and color. She gives me exactly what Im looking for and makes helpful suggestions based on skin tone and face shape if what Im asking for is off base. She has also been willing to stay past her normal working hours if I need to get in before leaving town. Im a happy girl who has found her haircare home base in Baltimore. read more

Rebecca is a consummate professional who is highly skilled and knowledgeable about hair! She does an amazing job and I'm lucky to have found her! read more

You know it's a great salon when two of my friends, who don't even know each other, recommended not only the same salon, but the same stylist. Megan is amazing and is a really good listener. Another great perk about Megan, she does a fantastic job of explaining her techniques! From teaching me how to upkeep my balayage highlights to how to properly curl my hair to achieve beach waves! I had the best experience at Simas and I will be back! read more

Meagan has been cutting my hair for a long time. She is the best! When you sit in her chair, she treats you like you are best friends. She listens to what you want and when she is done, it's perfect!. Amazing Stylist. read more

I am so glad to have found Sima's Salon- Leah saved my hair from other (horrendous) hairstylists' mistakes! She was understanding and smart, explaining what she was going to do and why. Also, we had great conversation and she kept me hydrated with waters! Will definitely be back to Leah- Thank you!! read more

I have been a client at Sima's for over 15 years. My go-to stylist is Tom and has been since my very first visit. I am extremely happy with the service, atmosphere and talent, and even scheduled cuts//color in conjunction with trips home when I was living abroad. I thoroughly trust his judgement--so much so that I went from below-shoulder blond to platinum pixie after his suggestion (many years ago) and was completely satisfied with the updated look. Choose Tom at Sima's; you won't be let down! read more

My first brazilian wax ever was with Lenann and it was amazing! Definitely not as relaxing as a massage but so much less painful than I ever expected. She was very nice, friendly, and easy to talk to. I would definitely recommend her to anyone! read more

Megan at Sima's cuts my hair and is amazing!! However, I went to Leah for a trial to style my hair for my wedding day and I couldn't be more disappointed about the service or attitude. I brought multiple example photos for the first trial and Leah was not able to match the example photos. My hair styled was a "princess style" with a huge bumped tease on the top of my head. Because I'm loyal to the salon, I let Leah talk me into coming in for another trial a month later with more photos. A month later, I come in again, and she styles my hair very similarly to the first time around. After I express my disappointment, she proceeds to tell me that it's too much pressure for her to style my hair on my wedding day and that it's not going to work out. S In my experience, Leah is only able to deliver one style even though when you show her a picture and ask if she can do that style, she says yes. If you want your hair cut, go to Sima's - if you want your hair styled for your wedding day, go else where. It's NOT worth it!! read more

Michelle been cut and coloring my hair for at least ten years and has offered trusted advice throughout the years. The entire staff is friendly, helpful and have been known to offer a glass of wine in the morning after a stressful night shift. I cannot imagine to a nother stylist or salon! read more

Sima has been cutting my hair for almost 15 years. She is a wonderful person and talented hair stylist. I have curly hair, which can be difficult to cut, style, and control. I now live over an hour away from Sima's, but it is worth the drive. Sima is that good! She's patient, experienced, talented, friendly, funny, caring, understanding, flexible... Getting my hair cut feels like a lunch date with a friend--only I leave looking better than I did when I arrived! I got married over the weekend and Sima styled my hair, as well as my mother's and bridesmaids. We all looked beautiful, thanks to Sima! read more

I have been searching for a hair stylist for years since I've moved to MD. What I've found: Great stylists with NO customer service skills! Well I finally found a stylist that I love at Sima's! But there's one big problem: this salon has a lack of care for it's client's. I almost think going to About Faces would have been better...don't get me started on that place. Every time I call Sima's I feel like I'm bothering the receptionist. She is very short with me and not accommodating at all. I have been in the customer service field for 12 years and I think that Sima's only stays in business because of their location and the clientele that goes there has become accustomed to this lack of customer service that accompanies this industry in this area. I'll miss my stylist because she was hard to find, but I will be searching for another place to go! I'm taking recommendations if anyone has any!!! read more
