Above All Grand Salon & Spa

Worst salon in Wexford. I have been going to this salon on and off for 15 years, since they were in their original location. The receptionists seem as though they'd rather spit on you as wait on you. I've had multiple hair dressers over the years. All do an okay job, nothing spectacular. Once I had to wait over 40 minutes past my appointment time for a hair cut. No one acknowledged my wait unless I asked how much longer it would be. I finally left. The hairdresser did call to apologize but that was the last straw. I haven't been back since. I don't appreciated being treated like scum, especially when their price list in not cheap. Save your money and go elsewhere. more

just moved to the area and was very nervous I wouldnt find a decent salon. Decided to try this one and I love my hair. My stylist name was Mia. I would recomend her especially for color. But she gave me a nice cut as well. more

She does everything: hair, manicures and pedicures and she does them very well. Thanks, Cathy! more

I have been going there for about a year or so. I have only gone for manicures, pedicures and brow waxing. I can't complain about any of my services. Mandy has always done my nails, and they always come out looking fabulous! more

I have been going to Above All for about a year to get my nails done and Taralee has never let me down. more

I have been a client of Above All for MANY years. The salon is beautiful, well stocked and relaxing. I particulary LOVE my Stylinist Andrea. She continues to using ""cutting edge"" techinques to make me and my hair be that best it can be. more

My first experience with Above All was exceptional. Everyone, beginning with the receptionists, was fantastic. The salon is spotless, gorgeous and relaxing. The holiday decor is well done. My hair stylist, Ann, actually listened to what I wanted. She made some suggestions about cut and color that I took her up on and I am very happy with the results. Ann was personable, professional and excellent with color. I was very comfortable with her immediately. I look forward to our next appointment. Stephanie did my fill-in and pedicure. Again, she was personable and I was treated professionally and made to feel right at home. She did a great job. The pedicure and foot/leg treatments were heavenly! I look forward to my next appointment with her, too. Janine did my brows. Since I'd just had a facial peel with Cynthia I couldn't have a brow wax or tint. Janine had to do it the old-fashioned way using tweezers. She did a nice job shaping my brows and getting those unruly white ones under control. Janine took great care to make sure that the tweezing wasn't too ouchy. I am pleased with the outcome and will most likely look into eyelash extensions some time soon. My facial peel was performed by Cynthia. She is absolutely terrific. She took the time to throughly educate me on what was going to happen, the products that she'd be using and what to expect during and after the treatment. The after treatment products actually do what they promise and make the skin feel wonderful. A few days after the peel Cynthia called to check up on how I was doing, how the after treatment products were working and answered some questions that I had. I will be doing a series of peels with her and am already looking forward to my January 2012 appointment. Above All certainly lived up to its name. I highly recommend this salon/spa to anyone who wishes to do something extra special for themselves, family member or friend. Cost is in line with other higher end salons and spas. more

Needless to say it was not a friendly atmosphere. It was my first time and last time that I will ever walk in those doors. The girl at the front desk was miserable. After I was sent back to wait there was all this confusion on who had who and what was going on.... Seriously how hard is it to know who your next apt is?? I was not formally introduced to the person who was going to wax me. That right there shows a lot. How the place has the name ABOVE ALL GRAND SALON .... please take a step down and remove the above all part because truly your not. Its a beautiful place with UGLY attitudes! Also you may want to consider hiring ""new"" staff for the front more along the lines of happy and professional :) more

While I hesitate to give her away to everyone because I would NEVER get in with her, I feel I have to tell everyone about her amazing styles, her gifted artistry and the fact that she really loves what she does and you can tell. I feel amazing when I leave there!! more

I have been going to Above All for about 2 years. I have been going to Sheana for my cuts for the past year or so. I love how she cuts my hair and I am always happy when I leave. more

?Never ask for me again.? Abuse and Racist remarks by Sylvia at the Above All Spa, Wexford. I went to the Above All Spa in Wexford, PA for a face wax last Friday. The woman who did the waxing was Sylvia, tall, thin, in her early 50?s. Sylvia is tempermental and insecure of her work skills and ruined my expereince. The incident ended with her chasing me in front of the salon reception and claiming that the customer, I, was rude and I was never to ask for Sylvia again. The manager came reluctantly only after I asked the girl at the counter to get some help. The manager did not ask Sylvia to apologize for her incredible rudeness nor her racist remarks. Avoid this spa if you are dark(South Asian), have less than perfect brows and want a relaxing experience Briefly Sylvia began by asking me where I got my services done. I told her that I did these myself but recently I had gone to Elizabeth Arden Salon and seen the work of their technicians. Thinking a professional could do it better, I headed to Above All Spa to get my face waxed. ? I am curious to know how they do it?? said Sylvia. When told that EA strategy was to wax the face in smaller sections; Sylvia waxed eloquently on about her training and her expertise. She said it took too much time, too much effort to wax in smaller sections. (She clearly does not want to spend time on her clients.) After slapping some wax on my the side of the face, she waxed in one very large section. The cheeks turned red. She said it was because I was too dark. Most of her clients were fairer (read white). After she did my brows, she handed me the mirror. She had overwaxed my left brow which was now a thin crescent compared to the right one. When I told her about this and said we would end the waxing session. She retorted, ?Well that?s the way your eyebrows are.? Is this professionalism? Blame the eyebrows? If I had wanted this kind of service, I would have stayed at home ! I walked out the spa section, Sylvia in tow. She then began verbal abuse at the counter: ?Never ask for me again. You are the rudest?? By this time I was very upset as I had gone to the spa, for what we women call a relaxing experience. The girl at the counter did or heard nothing; customer service at this spa is pathetic. It was only after I asked for the manager, did help arrive and stop the fulminating Sylvia. The manager did not ask Sylvia to apologize; for her racist remarks, nor for her incredible rudeness. She only waived the waxing charges which I would not have paid anyway. One week later all my facial hair is back; waxing smaller sections does work better! Avoid this Spa completely unless you like to be abused by white, elderly women. more

Wife has been going there for a while and she made me a hair appointment with Grace. more

Every client is treated with respect and care. I look and feel amazing. The staff really seems to love what they do. They can give you the best cut and color for your style. more

I had been recommended by a Facebook friend who is a regular client of Wes's I scheduled a hair appointment with Erin and have never been more thrilled with hair and well it lays and looks I never looked or felt better. I was blown away by how helpful and informative the Front Desk girls were. So helpful when I called and so nice when I arrived. Katie smiled and greeted me so warmly. Lisa was amazing at check out making sure I made my next appointment. They literally take care of everything for you!!!! I am also scheduled for a massage and facial in 2 weeks. It simply a breathtaking establishment and everyone so friendly and professional. more

I just started going to Above all and i have to say the services are AMAZING. the employess that perform actual services on you treat you like gold. they really care about what they do and if their customer is happy. my favorites are Amy for waxing and Julia for a facial. i went in two times in 1 week, then another time the following week. BUT when i went to pay, the receptionists were so incredibly rude. they came off having an attitude from the start. They overcharged me for my services. It seemed like they didnt pay attention when i was talking. I told the woman to take 20% of the service out of my gift card i had and she gave the employee $20 not 20% when the bill was $55. When i corrected her. she was annoyed and gave me attitude. anyway all 3 times i came up to pay a different receptionist was rude in some way. It makes not want to go back there again. they ruin everything and put me in a bad mood after a relaxing day Pros: inside is beautiful! service employees really care Cons: rude receptionists more

I have to say I've been coming to this salon for years to get waxing done and Julia is superb. However, I just returned from having my hair cut and the stylist they paired me up with (after I asked for someone experienced in ""short hair"" cuts) listened to exactly how I told her I wanted my hair cut, then proceeded to cut it exactly the way she wanted. I have short hair. It was longer all over and needed a trim. I specifically asked that the sides of my hair be trimmed but with a weight line as I didn't want her to take much off there at all. Explained in detail. She insisted she understood. I explained -- I wanted the length kept but cleaned up. When she was finished, I looked like a plucked bird. I have about 1/2 inch of hair on the sides of my head. There is no ""style"" whatsoever. I could have gotten this at a corner barbershop! more

I live in Shadyside and can walk to several good salons, but I choose to drive a bit North of the city to have my hair done at Above All. It is completely woth it! I have my hair colored, cut and blown out by Tami Marie, who is spectacular. A famliy friend also frequents Above All where she, and her two daughters (1 and 3), have their hair styled by other great staff members. Pros: Tons of Parking, Good Eats nearby, Service more
