I got a haircut from someone that really was prepared to do a different cut for me without being pushy.

Definitely a new customer!

I am extremely frustrated and disappointed with my experience at Mirabella after years of positive…read moreexperiences with this salon. I booked a full highlight and haircut for noon, and on the morning of my appointment, my stylist asked if I could move to 2 PM to better accommodate her schedule. I agreed. After processing my highlights, my hair was washed and toned. My hair is very fine, but I have a lot of it, and it tangles easily. She then spent nearly an hour detangling my wet hair with an extremely fine-toothed comb, which I have never experienced a stylist using to detangle wet hair. At no point was I told I would be charged an additional fee for this or that the time spent detangling meant there would no longer be enough time to complete my haircut. After about 2.5 hours, my appointment was abruptly ended because the next client was waiting. I was sent home with my hair soaking wet and uncut and told I would have to come back another day to finish the service I had originally booked. I was then charged $225: $140 for highlights, $25 for additional product, $25 for toner, and an unexpected $35 "detangling fee" that was never discussed with me beforehand. I called the salon twice afterward because I was so frustrated with how this was handled. My stylist later explained that she couldn't finish my appointment because she had already pushed her next client back 30 minutes. I found that particularly frustrating considering I had moved my own appointment by two hours that same day specifically to accommodate her schedule. I understand that appointments can run long and additional product can cost more. What I don't find acceptable is adding an undisclosed fee and ending a booked highlight-and-cut appointment without completing the cut or even drying my hair because the next client was waiting. I was offered another appointment to come back for the haircut, but after this experience, I have no desire to return.

My hair is the heaviest it's been in years. Kylie does an amazing job of listening and taking all things into consideration. She makes recommendations based on what I want and what I need for my day to day. As a nurse my hair is tied up most days and I was seeing so much drama he from that. We worked out an easy plan for hair care that has helped that tons. As far as my color goes, it's amazing! She does everything she can to make sure there no dress or damage to my hair. I get complements daily on my color. My last appointment was before Christmas and I'm still being asked if I recently got my color touched up. Her appointments are very personal and focused on you. The conversations is great and so fun, you're going in to visit a friend every time! Not just a salon that tries to get you in and out while they are working on other people as well. She makes sure to ask about things you've spoken about before. She remembers even the small details, I couldn't be happier!

Let me start with location. This place is located in a small room inside the bowels of a fitness…read morecenter, not far from the men's locker room. On the website a men's haircut is listed at $28. That seemed reasonable assuming they had talented and capable stylists. In fact, Grand River Barber Co, a local competitor, has several incredibly talented barbers that charge $28 because of demand. I got a basic men's cut, expecting to be charged $28, and they charged me $49. That's a 75% increase! After getting taken advantage of, I emailed the owner, only to be insulted and told I should have expected to pay that much. This place takes advantage of their customers.

My Honest Opinion Initially I gave heat salon 3/5 stars. It…read moreis a small salon, previously a blow dry bar, attached to my health club, very convenient for me. However, the owner told me that if I did not give a better rating that she would not do my hair. So I raised the rating, but I ALWAYS felt guilty for lying to soothe her ego and for my ease. Is Heat a 5/5 salon like David Mallett of New York? Absolutely not. As far as the local Lansing area goes? I would say Douglas J would get my best vote. Heat Salon is convenient for members at The M.A.C., not up-to-date on its website and pretty good. I would give it a 3/5, but being coerced by a hairdresser is so weird, I've got to drop it down a half a point 2.5/5

I followed her even when she switched salons and I would highly recommend her for haircuts and great balayages.

When I had my balayage done about a year ago she stunned me with how natural it was. Honestly it could grow out for months and you'd never see lines. I have to leave Lansing/East Lansing but I'm sad to go. I literally used to drive hours to get my hair done for stylists who couldn't compare to April.

Ellie is my go-to stylist at The Head Room, and she is a miracle worker. She is always open to any ideas I have for styling and has great suggestions for how to keep my look fresh while still accommodating for my slacker ways when it comes to touching up my roots, etc. She is very skilled and personable, and I just adore her. I've also brought my young daughter to The Head Room for haircuts with Jamie and Andrea. They both did fantastic work and were very sweet and patient--I imagine preschoolers are typically not stylists' favorite clients, but you wouldn't know it based on our appointments. I feel pricing at the salon is reasonable, on par with what you'll be charged at other similar salons in the area. The only issues I've ever had at the salon, as other reviewers have mentioned, are with booking appointments. It can very challenging to get an appointment for color within a few weeks of calling, so it's necessary to plan ahead quite a bit (not my strong suit). I had one incident where I actually remembered to book my next color and cut at the front desk immediately following an appointment. When I showed up for the next appointment a couple months later, the salon had no record of it. I had the appointment card from the front desk and everything, but there was really nothing that could be done at the time so it was a wasted trip. They were very apologetic and helpful about making a time to squeeze me in the next week, but it was a frustrating experience. Not enough to keep me away but worth mentioning. Overall, a great salon that I highly recommend. Just keep in mind that appointments (especially for color) may need to be booked out a few weeks in advance and if you don't receive a reminder call for your upcoming appointment, it'd be good to contact the salon and confirm your booking before making the trip over.
