Drea V.

I chose this Salon because of the good ratings it had on Yelp. I have fine hair with out-grown baby lights that needed a cut and color. The women that helped me was Lauren or "Lo". A couple of hours before my appointment I sent her pictures of the color and style I wanted. Which she agreed she could do. I was seated and left WAITING while she finished a mens hair cut right next to me while leaving my hair to PROCESS. I got there at 5:30pm and left at 8:00pm!! Only to go home looking like I had old WASHED OUT pink hair that hadn't seen a salon in months. How is that even possible?!?! She kept reassuring me that it would "WASH OUT". I get home and text her that I'm unhappy with the color and she offered to fix it the following day. We agreed on 3:00pm that night. I was able to to leave work early and txted her during salon hours if she would be able to take me earlier. After an hour of no response, I went home 25-30 min away and decided to get my hair colored by someone else closer to home. I texted her about me not needing to get my hair done and SHE GOES OFF ON ME. At this point I want my money back for this TERRIBLE experience and HORRIBLE customer service. The third picture is what I asked her for!!!! I SPENT $180 FOR THIS UPDATE: I was refunded $180 on 7/22

Best salon in OB! if your looking to brighten your life with some color Lauren is your girl!! She gave me the best hair cut I've EVER had! Everyone at the salon is very nice and the salon is so clean and adorably styled.

I am still coming here. Steven is still hooking it up and keeping my hair happy and healthy. Most recently I decided to clean the crazy colors out and try an ombré. Then got a much needed Brazilian blowout two weeks later. Always good conversations and great vibes at this salon.

Just had an amazing experience at Sweet! Never been here before, but walked in on a whim looking like a straight up caveman after a year without a haircut. It was bad. Luke the owner took me right away even though it was his day off! Super friendly guy who beared with my ignorance regarding hair and gave me EXACTLY what I was looking for. And he's a born and raised local like me so that's cool. It's a shame it took me so long, but I'm so happy to have found my new spot! I will definitely be back, thanks Luke!

I drove in from Orange County for a friend's wedding. Spontaneously I wanted to get my hair curled and found this salon online close to the wedding venue. I booked online through their website and I was relieved they took same day appointments. Lauren took care of me and I was beyond excited at how amazing she did for me. She listened to what I wanted and outperformed my expectations!! She was super professional and friendly!!

I cannot believe I didn't leave a review for this back when i went here in October for a really challenging hair makeover! But the stylists who worked on my hair deserve the credit in the form of a positive review. It was Christina (CC) and I believe Luke (it's been a few months so I'm not positive!) who took my hair from magenta to blonde. My new job was requiring a hair color change to something "natural", so there was a little bit of pressure and definitely a bit of a mood from me about the work situation. They worked tirelessly with my very stubborn hair, literally all day (6 hours in the chair), until it was a perfect, beautiful blonde. It would be a five star review but for the price. It was outrageously expensive, but I do understand the cost considering it took up the better part of the day for two stylists. Two stylists! That's how much they cared about my hair and the final result. I seriously have never felt so cared about in a Salon before.

Extensions blended beautifully!

Sweet salon is a beautiful little place with a welcoming and grounded atmosphere. The stylists and there are always very friendly And approachable, And the salon is clean and well maintained. I have been going to Chuck to do my hair for the past few years and he does an amazing job! He has walked me through various stages of highlights and Balayage, And most recently has been installing and maintaining my hand tied sew in extensions! Chuck found the exact color That I needed and blended and toned my hair perfectly to match! He always does an amazing job on everything he does, And always remains professional, polite and Supportive of all of my crazy ideas lol! I would VERY HIGHLY recommend both Chuck and Sweet Salon for any of your hair styling desires!

Chuck did an amazing job!

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.

I used to get my haircut from the owner, Freddy, who seemed to do a really good job at cutting, while also seemingly personable and talking to me about my day, and what's been going on. As time went on though, and considering how far I would have to drive to downtown and get a haircut, things started to fall off. I would always make sure to put myself down for an appointment but I would often have to wait for another client who he would be running over with on time. Once maybe twice is okay (I went for around 10 appointments or so), but it was pretty much every time I went I had to wait an extra 5-15 minutes before I was in the chair. Some haircuts turned out really good, and others were a little sloppy and seemed rushed since he was already over on his time and had to compensate somewhere, which I guess was sometimes me. I also went to try out the perm hairstyle and got it done by Sheila, but the perm was $200~ and ended up only lasting maybe 2-3 months despite delicate care in the process to make it stay longer. The way she did it also didn't seem to be the best since a lot of the curls were really loose even though I told her I wanted it to last a while (especially considering the price). Maybe I was the one-off that ended up not staying or looking good with perms, but I was pretty disappointed with it. Only thing I can really note that was good was that I think it helped with some texturing of my hair to not be so straight all the time. I believe the vibe of this location is good, but definitely got loud since they shared the space with 2 other businesses and also had a gym studio move in above them causing a lot of extra noise. I'm seeing now they have a new location (I only went to the old spot) which would make this issue hopefully non-existent. Since I always went out of my way to come get my haircut here, it was showing some serious diminishing returns compared to just finding a location closer which I eventually did after I moved. I believe Freddy and his team will continue to have success, but I will not be coming here anymore due to repeated issues I was having.

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!

Got it done 3 days ago so this is fresh. The color looks faded and wasn't the shade I asked for. Also, in the beginning it was uneven, and I had to ask to fix it and I felt like a burden when I did. 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.
