Alina A I recently moved from NYC, where had been seeing the same stylist for years, so I was extremely skeptical and anxious about finding someone new to colour my hair. After reading amazing reviews about Julia and Hairmess Salon, I decided to give it a try—and I’m so glad I did! Julia is a young and talented colourist and hairstylist who exceeded my expectations every step of the way. She did a stunning balayage for me using three different color shades, and we discussed the color multiple times to ensure it was exactly what I wanted. Throughout the process, she was attentive to every detail, constantly making sure all my requests were addressed. The final result was perfect, just as I envisioned.
The salon itself has a glamorous decoration that adds to the overall experience. The atmosphere is friendly, and everyone is kind and accommodating. Overall, I would highly recommend Julia and Hairmess Salon to anyone looking for a professional and talented colourist—look no further!

Cynthia Rodriguez I had my haircut and blow dry with Alex yesterday, and while the salon itself is absolutely stunning, my experience with him was unfortunately not as positive. From the start, I was greeted well, but things quickly took a turn when Alex began making snarky, passive-aggressive comments. It started when I mentioned considering bangs again, I was given a lecture on how high maintenance they are, even though I told him I’d had them before, even showing him pictures of my most recent haircut. It felt like a strange response to a simple inquiry.
I also asked him to show me visually how much two inches off would look, and he responded in a way that felt dismissive, implying that as an American, I should already know what two inches looks like. I simply wanted a visual aid, which I think is a reasonable request. Later, when I asked my friend for her opinion, Alex sarcastically asked if I needed her permission. It came off as more awkward than funny, and the comments kept coming, making the whole experience uncomfortable.
By the end, I felt so discouraged by the conversation that I barely spoke unless my friend engaged me. The final straw was when Alex told me not to touch my hair too much after the blow dry and made a comment about not feeling so "unique" for doing so. It was uncalled for and really left a bad taste in my mouth.
While the haircut itself was great, I won’t be returning. The treatment I received didn’t match the caliber of the salon, and I truly hope Alex doesn’t treat all his clients this way. A good hairstylist should make you feel beautiful and confident, and unfortunately, that wasn’t the case here. I’d recommend he work on his communication skills and manners.

Maria M I have been coming to Hairmess for about a year now. I love Alex. My friend recommended him and I wasn’t disappointed! I have graying curly hair that is very hard to style. Alex gives me perfect color and cut every time I come in. Because of his great haircuts my morning routine now is so much easier. He is very creative and really knows his stuff. He is sharp, has good taste and a nice sense of humor. I like to ask his advice and give him creative freedom.

Haley Peterman I had an amazing experience with Stella! She did a fantastic job on my highlights—they turned out absolutely perfect. Not only is she incredibly skilled, but she also has such a warm and friendly personality that made the whole appointment enjoyable. I felt completely comfortable in her chair, and I left the salon feeling so confident and happy with my hair. I highly recommend Stella to anyone looking for a talented stylist!
