Have gone to Marissa three times now and each time she has nailed it! Although she is still training she has more attention to detail than any other hair stylist I have had. She takes her time and makes sure you love your hair! Couldn’t recommend her more!!

I have been coming to Studio 890 for a few years now the Salon itself- super modern, clean, and chic. I went in for a color and cut by Nikki since I am going on vacation in a couple of weeks. This was my second consult with her as my previous hairstylist was no longer with them. I never had a horrible experience with them like I did this past week. I informed her I wanted to incorporate more blond as my ends were still light brown and showed her a picture of what I wanted. I also explained how I wanted my haircut, trim my ends only with long layers and face framing. Nikki started placing foils in my hair and started the lighting process. You can not place foils and bleach however and expect good results. When lighting process was done my ends were still left brown and she stated she couldn’t get that hair lightened. Toner was placed and the color I was left with was a dark gray, white, ash blond color with brown ends. I believe the color was even darker than what I had prior to coloring. In the past I would look at a couple of swatches before toner was placed. We started the haircut and she proceeded to shear off the brown ends thinning my hair out BADLY. I have the smallest ponytail now as she really did cut off all my hair. I was left with a mullet on the back and missing the front length to my hair. I came in 2 days later to try and correct (last 4 pictures) and went with a darker blond hoping to get rid of the different tones. D was the sweetest and really truly wanted to help, but my hair was passed saving as the haircut couldn’t be fixed. I was advised to let it grow back and to come back to get haircut corrected. I consulted with Tim (Owner) wishing to be refunded as this experience was so upsetting. He believed this to be a miscommunication, I did not agree as I explained to Nikki and even showed her a picture. He informed me no refund would be issued do to policy, I was left feeling really terrible after that conversation. I will have to continue to wear a beanie and my hair in a clip as this does not grow over night and will be looking for a new hair salon.

The first picture was how my hair looked going into consult and second was the first color I was left with. I don't even care what color my hair is anymore, this haircut has left me so traumatized.

My daughter and I have been going to studio 890 for a few years but my daughter's experience with a designer there for her last haircut was so disappointing. Claire didn't even communicate with my daughter well and ended up giving her a terrible haircut even after my daughter provided her detailed description of what she wanted. In addition, her haircut, wash and style was less than 40 minutes long. Really disappointed and have advised my daughter to never use this stylist again.

Very disappointed, take your business elsewhere!! I typically do not review places, but this place provided me with a really awful experience. I came in to get my hair slightly highlighted right before the holidays. The next day after washing my hair (with color protectant shampoo), I ended up with blotchy, unevenly colored hair! I was sincerely embarrassed to wear my hair down. It looked like I had done a hair coloring kit at home. Not to mention, feeling upset about having spent $225 for this result.

When I called to ask if I could have at least half of my money back, I was told that the stylist would contact me, followed by the manager. To my surprise, the stylist didn’t bother to call me; she texted me. After a day of texting the stylist, the manager called, which she frankly sounded annoyed having to deal with my complaint. She also mentioned that they don’t do refunds and that I had to come in to see the same stylist. As you can imagine after seeing the results of the first time around, I didn’t want to damage my hair any further. I will definitely NOT be back. Sadly, it is so hard to find a stylist that can actually color hair.

I recently got an updo by Rachel and makeup by Melissa for a special event. They were sooo great...the end result was exactly what I wanted! They were so welcoming, yet professional! I can't say enough about this place!

Carolyn has been doing my hair for most of this year, she is amazing! She is super friendly,
and always listens to my thoughts, love working with her! She has helped me navigate the ever-changing and often emotional journey through hair regrowth after chemo. I have never left the salon disappointed, thank you Carolyn!
Jennifer K. has been doing my nails for a few months now, they haven't look this good in ages! She is a joy to work with and gives great attention to detail, love that! Tons of colors to choose from make it even more fun!

"I always have a great experience at Studio 890. The front desk staff is so welcoming and sweet, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in. The stylists are incredibly talented and always listen to exactly what I want. My hair turns out perfect every time, and I leave feeling amazing. Highly recommend!

I have been going to Studio 890 for the last 7 years and have seen Maggie most of the times (except when she was on maternity leave!). She is absolutely incredible! She cuts, colors AND styles my hair perfectly every time!! As a curly haired gal, I pretty much NEVER had anyone that could style my hair well before Maggie! To add to all that, she is so sweet and anyone that she has ever worked with has also been great!

Everyone that I have ever encountered at Studio 890 has been friendly and accommodating. I feel the prices are also more than fair! I highly recommend giving Studio 890 (and Maggie)!!
