Salon Lofts is really great because each person there gets their own area so when you go in for…read moreyour appointment it is just you and Amy, random people are not walking around and interrupting and it makes for a really great, relaxing experience. also, Amy is amazing! my mom and I used to go to her years ago when she was in Cincinnati cutting hair but then she was gone for a while and we are SO glad to have her back. She is great at taking whatever inspiration or basic idea for what you are looking for and turning it into a beautiful, wearable hair cut. The cuts even look amazing when they grow out. I always walk out of her salon happy with my haircut and it always looks better than I could imagine it looking. I recommend Amy 100% to any and everyone.

Amy Alwell is a phenomenal stylist. When she styles my hair, she takes care of it, making sure that…read morehow I treat it also keeps it healthy. She advises me regarding cut, style and color while keeping my personality and type of hair in mind, and she is happy to suggest new styles and colors if that's what I want to do - she's innovative. She maintains her education regarding technique, coloring and styling tools. Prior to becoming Amy's client, my hair color was flat and one dimensional. My hair was also not healthy. Amy turned that around in a flash. She is very artistic, and that talent comes through when she styles my hair. I can always depend on her to keep me looking professional!

What an overpriced, godawful salon! The management has no idea what it takes to run a successful…read moresalon, could care less about their clients. No people skills, all business, all money. I sat and listened to the conversations and unlike other salons I've been to here and in my native Chicago, where women tend to go to the same salon for years, here it's all superficial fluff. These people are as phony as a $3 bill. They don't want to know you; they just want your money. And they tend to be super conservative... The receptionist even tried to tell me how much to tip! The color was decent, but the cut was flat, no volume or bounce. Worse, when you try to tell them how you like to wear your hair they get pissed off! They walk on water in their minds. They do not care what you think or what you want. Their products are overpriced, but they never recommend them, anyway. Most stylists will suggest styling products to help you at home. Again, they don't care once you walk out of there. My stylist was full of herself, always bragging about what a great stylist she was. Thank God I found a better place that's only a few minutes further but well worth it. At Hair Forum, they stick you with whoever has the fewest appointments. (Wonder why). My current salon goes through the stylists' varied experience and prices and seeks to match you with someone who will work with you. It's perfect because it's a collaboration, not being stuck with a dictator.

I recently moved to Cincinnati from Los Angeles and had a hard time finding someone that was…read morecapable of doing natural hair (wash, blowdry, press/flatiron) as I do not have a relaxer and have never had one. As I started getting recommendations from friends and family and began making phone calls, it became very apparent that no one understood how I wanted my hair done, knew how to do it nor was it their specialty. I also had a few failed attempts at allowing people to do my hair only to end up very disappointed. However, I got a referral to see Annetta at Escapades and I haven't looked back since. Upon arriving at Escapades, I was impressed with the layout of the salon and the professionalism of the staff. Once I met Annetta, I knew I was going to end up happy because she took the time to talk to me which was very important. She did not try to come across as if her way was best as she was open to hearing what has and hasn't worked in the past, which was very important to me. She truly wanted to have an understanding of what I wanted. I have very thick long hair and it is important that my hair remain healthy, which was something that Annetta mentioned right away. I have not been disappointed with how my hair turns out each time. Annetta uses high quality products which aid in promoting healthy hair, she recommends treatments that coincide with the weather and/or are needed at the time and she ALWAYS takes her time. She does not stack appointments where you are sitting in the salon for hours on end. I'm typically out of the salon within 2 hours max which is a big deal to me. I feel that Annetta is equally as good as my last stylist in Los Angeles and was a very rare find. I recommend her to anyone that ever compliments or asks about my hair. I honestly don't know what I would do without her. So if you are looking for someone that can do natural hair, looking to grow your relaxer out or just want someone that will take their time and do a great job, give Annetta at Escapades a try.

Ladies, you know how loyal we are when we find a good hair dresser right... well I am fortunate…read moreenough to have two lovely ladies who I go to before I will trust my tresses to just anyone. I started going to Uniquely You back in about 2003. I was introduced to an awesome lady named Olga, and she is amazing! Her personality is always bubbly even when she is running around like crazy, and her skills are phenomenal. When I first went to see Olga, I had long brown hair, and I was in the "DON"T CUT TOO MUCH OFF," portion of my life. Well we played with some color, and she convinced me to cut off the dead ends. I don't know what type of crazy magic this girl pulled, but by the end of that year I had hair up to my cheek bones that went from boring brown to a platinum paradise. Talk about bombshell. Between the two ladies I have gone to (April is listed in another review...) I never feel more beautiful than when I leave the chair of either one of these two ladies. I tell Olga all the time that she is a hair ninja. She comes up with crazy ideas that I never would have thought of, and I used to go to her and tell her to do whatever she pleased because I KNEW the results would come out fantastic, and what she determined looked awesome, looked much better than any of my plain ol ideas. Olga will tell you if a cut or color isn't right. She is creative, and will ask you if you are sure before any drastic changes. For the amazing work that she does, she should be charging much more than what she does...(but I'm of course, glad that she doesn't.) I moved to NC and I seriously just flew back into town to visit people and managed to squeeze in for an appointment with her. I have gone to a stylist here, but so far none have held a candle to either of my ladies. So to Olga, thank you for making me feel beautiful and for being so amazing at what you do. You rock, and Uniquely You is such a conveniently located location as well. Ladies and Gents, if you need a hair ninja, you've just met your match.

I was extremely excited to try this salon. After researching a Paul Mitchell salon, I saw that this…read moresalon was close to my house. I even found a groupon for a haircut. I made my appointment and was eager to have a new style. I was very specific with Erin (the manager and stylist who was cutting my hair) and showed her what I wanted. However, I ended up to the point of tears due to the horrible hair cut I received. It did not look like what I had asked for, she didn't listen to what I had to say about my hair, and it was an awful experience. She did apologize at the end, but neither the manager (Erin) nor the shop owner, who was there, bothered with anything besides, "I know your not happy with your haircut." Really? Now I'm stuck with an awful haircut until it grows out enough to get the layers blended without losing more length. I definitely do NOT recommend this salon!

I hate to be this person. This was the worst hair salon experience I've ever had :( which was a…read morehuge bummer. The girl was really nice, all I needed was a quick trim. She cut it dry, but didn't actually cut anything. I wish I was joking, she pulled hair out with her fingers, snapped the scissors, but not on my hair. Then said she wasn't going to wash it.... For 50$ it's included so I kindly asked her to wash it. Huge mistake. Should have just left. Only wet and washed the top cone of my head. The front pieces and around my neck weren't ever touched, product wasn't fully washed out. She proceeded to add 7-8 products to my hair while drying it, I looked like Cameron Diaz on there's something about Mary when I left. It was so oily and greasy and disgusting. I cried in the car after wasting that kind of time and money. The girl was so so nice, but worst hair experience ever. My usual hair girl was on maternity leave, so I was desperate for a cut. I told my usual hair girl about it and she informed me the salon owner tends to bully those that leave poor reviews about the salon on social media pretty hard- she showed me and I was appalled. The salon itself is very "liberal" politically with all the signage and stickers and conversation. I don't really care and respect everyone's right to their opinion and free speech- just a weird environment for a professional salon in my personal opinion. I won't be back and hopefully other girls there are much better. I think mine was new, but wow, for an hour and $60 (with tip) I was largely disappointed to say the least.

Good luck getting a hold of a stylist if you're a potential new client. A friend of mine told met…read moreto check this salon out, as the tattoo artist we both go too had suggested it to her. So, since they don't have a website or number to call, I found their social media accounts. No biggie, I know plenty of places do business this way nowadays. From what I can tell from their posts they do a phenomenal job; experts in fashion colors, friendly stylists, cool space, etc. Their Instagram say contact stylist directly to book. No problem. I look through each profile, kind of narrowing down what I'm looking for vs what they each seem to specialize in. I see that one stylist has her books closed so her regulars can come in, one isn't accepting clients right, one is on leave...again, no big deal. They look like a great place, I expected them to be pretty booked and I'm not in hurry to get my hair done, I'm just hoping to get in. Finally, I've got it narrowed down to one stylist, I've double checked to make sure I don't see anything about closed books/not accepting clients, it all seems to check out, and it looks like they don't use a booking site, just DM or text to book. Perfect, I send the DM and I wait. Don't hear anything for about a week and I think, well, maybe they took some time off, they're super swamped, message got lost, whatever. I'm giving full benefit off the doubt. I decide to give it another go and send a text this time. Now here we are, another week has gone by with radio silence. Look, I'm not even upset that I can't get an appointment. You don't want my business, fine, but I'd rather you tell me to scram than get nothing at all. It's just frustrating to get no response at all, especially when there's posts on social media everyday, which leads me to believe my messages are just being ignored. That all being said, I'm not telling you not to go. If you can get an appointment, take it. I'm sure they'll do an amazing job.
