Best salon ever!

by malta123 at Citysearch

Yesterday morning I was at Mane Attraction for my 4 week appointmnet. Thanks again to Mane Attraction for providing me and so many other people with our best salon experience ever. Mane Attraction is hands down, the best salon I have been to, which includes every one that I patronized in NYC. My next appointment is with Heather in 4 weeks, I can't wait!

• Pros: Best!!!
• Cons: None

Don't waste your time or money!

I've seen a couple different people there and every time I have had to wait. The style was alright but no one ever showed me how to do it again at home. With service and tip I paid over $200 every time and it wasn't even that good!

• Pros: nice salon
• Cons: waited awhile, overpriced

Loved My Cut and Color

by jamie Lovett at Citysearch

First, I want to tell you that I truly enjoyed my visit at Mane Attraction yesterday and you have a very sharp, courteous staff. The little things like a tour of the salon with the beverage area make a big difference. V was great and I love my hair cut and color!

I will be back!

• Pros: Great Location Beautiful Salon

Gifted management, hair not so much

by mominaz at Citysearch

This is a very well-run salon, conveniently located. The owners clearly know what they are doing in terms of creating a personable aura; new customers are given a tour and introduced to the owners, the reception area is comfortably arranged, you are given a little back rub when your hair is shampooed, beverages are on hand and offered frequently. Throughout the salon are interesting displays of the salon's press coverage throughout the years, which has been extensive.

The owner who cut my hair was friendly and interesting. Most regretably, my haircut is uneven, not at all what I requested, and I am going to have to find a place to get it corrected in the immediate future. The color was O.K. but overall for $200 (close to $300 once I purchased a product and added tips) I was hoping for a significantly better experience.

Addendum: Just after I finished writing the above review, my 16 year old son came into the room, looked at me and said in a kind tone of voice: "Mom, I hate to tell you this, but that haircut makes you look a lot older." This is a teenager who doesn't even notice his own hair, let alone other people's. I had not discussed this haircut with anyone in my family at all, so it must be worse than I had originally thought. Bummer.

• Pros: Pleasant atmosphere, excellent PR/media relations.
• Cons: Terrible haircut, excessive product selling

Very Professional!

How Sara ruined my life – NOT ;) Several months ago, my life was simple - get up, shower, shampoo and air dry, go to work. Not any more. Since Sara worked her magic on me, now I have to get up, do my hair, and go to work. Why? Because I have gotten such compliments on my hair when I do this, I have to live up to the standard. I have even started using product, and I get even more compliments. Now I am at least 10 minutes late for all my appointments because I have to do my hair, ha ha! It looks incredibly professional - so professional that people have to stop me daily to ask what I have done with my hair. This has gotten in the way of my sleep time and my work time. It is not in my best interests to look this good. Sara, you have made me into a professional looking person, and I will never forgive you (until my next appointment). Thank you, I appreciate you and the rest of the team so much!

• Pros: Super Place!

Very Impressive!

by Sharinav at Citysearch

My stylist in Michigan recommended me to the salon when I relocated to the Phoenix area. I was a little nervous at first since my stylist there worked for Vidal Sassoon and in Europe for several years. But she insured me that Kendall and Beate had the same international experience and great Sassoon training. I was very impressed by the excellent service I received and emailed my old stylist immediately to let her know what a great experience I had. Thanks for making me look beautiful!!!

• Pros: Friendly and Knowledgeable

Salon is impeccable, elegant and the stylists and extremely skilled and friendly

by shell0shell at Citysearch

I have been a Mane Attraction client for more than 10 years and in that timeframe I have not gone anywhere else. Even when I moved out to Surprise and it took me about an hour to get to the salon, I never even THOUGHT about going elsewhere.

Each stylist is trained to analyze your facial structure, your lifestyle and your personal preferences in order to create a style that not only looks great on you but is easy for you to re-create with their helpful tips and instruction.

With different levels, you can find a skilled stylist you can afford without sacrificing quality. Their friendly and they truly enjoy their work. The reception staff is super friendly, greeting you promptly and always offering refreshments, such as iced tea, coffee or water. During the holiday seasons, they offer Gluhwein, a mulled spiced wine.

Each service is preceded by a wash. And, oh, what a wash. They gently knead your scalp, working the shampoo and conditioner, which feels really good. They also use massagers to rub your shoulders, your neck and your back. I really look forward to the hair washes. :)

Included in the very reasonable is the wash, the cut and they also blow-dry and style before you leave. They want to make sure you know how to style your own hair at home. You walk out looking and feeling glamorous and beautiful.

The stylists are required to complete on-going training and attend international training seminars and workshops. They video-tape and photograph everything, creating a DVD played in the lobby and photo albums you get to peruse while you wait.

On top of their services, they also offer an exclusive line of Mane Attraction and Bumble and Bumble hair products. I never leave without purchasing the Bumble and Bumble hair tonic, a wonderful leave-in conditioning treatment.

All-in-all, Mane Attraction is THE salon to go to. They've been featured in style magazines, trade magazines and I even read that a famous band member a while ago.

• Pros: ambiance rates services friendly staff
