Joseph is great 6/3/2011

I went and had a keratin treatment from Joseph. I have very course, curly and a little frizzy hair. Not only did it turn out terrific, but he did it in record time. I strongly urge anyone on the fence to have this treatment done by Joseph. He is a pro! And I can't say enough good things about this salon. more

Wonderful people 5/30/2011

I went to hair architects over the weekend to get my hair cut on the suggestion as a friend. I had Alex cut my hair and she did a fabulous job. I couldn't be happier with the cut she did. The staff was friendly and attentive to all the clients it seemed like and even Jon (the owner) came over to give me some tips about my possibly thinning hair and how to be proactive about it. I will definitely go back when I need another cut and will be happy to have anyone in the salon do it. more

Wonderful color and cut 5/30/2011

This salon is warm and inviting. Everyone was friendly. My stylist was very helpful in choosing color that would work with my hair. It turned out perfect. My cut was done as I wanted it and the stylist was able to tame a couple of trouble areas I have. I could not have asked for a better experience. I will be going back. more

Beyond Bad Haircut 5/27/2011

I feel terrible writing this review, but cannot believe how well rated Hair Architects is. I should preface this with a bit of information about my past. My mom always made us go to Great Clips and other low end places to get haircuts growing up, so I stay far away from them now that I'm an adult. I have a wonderful stylist who I cannot praise enough. I definitely pay more for my haircuts - and my stylist is worth every penny! Unfortunately, my income doesn't always support my taste for more expensive things. On to my experience at Hair Architects. I decided to go based on the reviews and the cost of haircuts. The staff was friendly and the stylist I saw was on time. She seemed to be attentive and understand my fear of trying new stylists as well as my past of bad haircuts. She assured me that I would not end up with thick, 80's style layers or lose too much length. After all, I only came in for a trim. By the time the stylists was done hacking away at my hair, it looked just as she had previously assured me it would not. I attempted to tactfully express my displeasure and she continued to add more layers and take off more length. I kindly told her that was enough and left feeling very disappointed and mislead by the wonderful reviews. Needless to say, I ended up going to see my stylist to have her fix my hair and vowed to never allow finances to make me stray again. I gave Hair Architects 2 stars (I could not give them only 1 - that's just mean) for their friendly staff, but would not return or recommend the salon to others based upon my experience. Sorry! more

Love my Japanese Thermal Hair Straightening & Conditioning 4/6/2011

Hi, Just had my first Japanese Thermal hair straightening and conditioning at Hair Architects. What a wonderful experience. My hair feels real soft, is straight and is not frizzy! Had the best experience and highly recommend going to Hair Architects. Alex was wonderful, Dante also came over to help and get the process done faster, less money. Everyone was very friendly and made me feel very comfortable, and special :) Thank you, I will be back. more

Most Effective Facial Ever! 4/2/2011

I have had problem skin all my life and every skin care professional I have ever talked to tried to talk me into harsh acne products that never work. Ally was the first person to identify that I actually have really sensitive skin and she gave me the most amazing soothing/calming facial and taught me how to care for my sensitive skin! more

Amazing hair!! 3/10/2011

I just left Hair Architects and couldn't be happier. I went in for the Japanese straightening treatment and my hair looks amazing. Alex was very friendly, professIonal and informative about this treatment that was new to me. Another stylist, Timm, assisted with the treatment and they were both great. I will be back without a question. Thank you!!! more

Best YONKA Facial ever! 11/15/2010

I am an esthetician and expect a lot when it comes to skincare. I also hope to learn something everytime I book an appointment with someone new. I've known Stephen for 12+ years, so hands down he is the best energy and delivers a ten when it comes to personality. I was so excited to finally receive a facial from Stephen after so many years, because he is forever going to be my new facial expert. His technique is right on. He educates you, but quiets to allow the relaxation needed during a facial massage. His room is amazing and he cares about the results he is providing. If you want results, I can suggest the Grand Classique Facial-it's great for all skin types and he will customize it for your skin type and concerns. Thank you Stephen for a gold standard experience! more

Stephen is great for skincare!! 9/27/2010

My sister has been seeing Stephen for her skincare, and suggested that I see him as well. Here are my thoughts: The Skin Care Guy: Stephen is polite, professional, and eager to answer all of your questions. The Room: The facial room has been recently enlarged and remodeled. It felt clean, modern, and relaxing. The room has it's own music, which thankfully, is different than the rest of the salon. The Grand Classique Facial: I found myself asking out loud "What's that wonderful smell?" and then nodding off, only to snore myself awake a minute or two later. I could have sat under that steam machine for an extra hour. (Who knew that a facial included arms?) Product: This is the best part for me, as I tend to break out with most kinds of skin care products. I've been using the YonKa samples he gave me for a couple days now, and no problems. I will definitely buy some when I return next time. The smell is invigorating in the morning, and I look forward to that part of my daily routine. Summary: The experience exceeded all expectations, and I'm happy to recommend him to everyone. more

Best Pedicure Ever! 9/9/2010

There are not enough words to describe Susan Randall. She gives the best pedicures! I have been going to Susan for about 10 years now. I keep going back to her because not only does she do a great job, but she is an experienced nail technician. And we get along great together. We chat it up like girlfriends! She is very accomedating, polite, funny, professional, flexible, and knowledgeable. Don't get me wrong, I have gotten pedicures at other places by other people in between those 10 years. The results and service I get have not been as great as I get with Susan. Just give her a chance and try it out, You will not be disappointed! more

Dante ia fabulous and Inoa color is amazing! 8/26/2010

I love my hair color, now! Before Dante switched me to the Inoa color system, my hair had a terrible problem with color fading - up to a whole shade between sessions. Now, my color is lasting and it looks so natural! I've gotten so many compliments since switching, it's clear I'm not imagining it's better! I can't say enough about Dante! She's been cutting my hair for a few years, and I'm always pleased. My daughter loves her, too. Traditionally, she has not enjoyed getting her hair cut, now she looks forward to going and she looks fabulous every time! Thanks for the great care! more

Solution: FRIZZY, CURLY HAIR 8/13/2010

My hair is difficult to manage! Jon (the owner) used the Brazilian Blowout on my hair - it is not only straight, but shiny and smooth. He is very knowledgable and will take time to explain which straightening method is best for you. I love the way he cuts and colors my hair as well. It has never looked or felt better. The staff is very helpful and professional. I have also had Alex work on my hair. She has a great attitude and does great work. It is a pleasure to go to here! more

Ok...I decided to try a Brazilian Blowout and I'm EXCITED!! 8/9/2010

I have very curly hair that I have never straightened with a flat iron or otherwise. I love my curls, but wanted to try something different. My mom got a Brazilian blowout and loved it. So I searched online for a salon with good reviews and found Hair Architects. I dragged a friend with me for the same process. Alex did mine, and Dante did my friends'. It only took 2.5 hrs on my super thick and long hair. Now two weeks later my hair is straight, soft, shiny and doesn't curl when it is foggy!! I LOVE IT but I love all the great compliments more!! The service was really fantastic. I will definitely go back!! Also, I liked that the owner was present, friendly and even checked on me and my friend!! THANK YOU!! more

quick and easy 6/7/2010

I came in with really long hair that hadn't been cut or touched for over a year. I had an appointment with the owner, Jo(h)n and he did a great job. He was fast, too. The environment is also nice if you have to take small children. I brought in my 3.5 year old son and he was well behaved the entire time because it wasn't all stuffy and boring. Pros: atmosphere, no nonsense, quick, knowledgeable, experience Cons: don't know more

ALEX IS AMAZING!! 2/13/2010

I drove 2 hours for a blonde weave and cut ( I am extremely picky about my hair!). And it was so worth the drive that I am going to be making it again and again! Alex at Hair Architects is awesome and anyone that is looking for a stylist should give her a shot! She did this really amazing cap ( no this is not your typical processing cap, I know what you are thinking!!). I was really skeptical at first :-) But once it was all said and done I am contemplating never weaving again! It was totally painless and the overall look when it was done put a huge smile on my face! :-) Honestly you would be spending your money and your time very wisely if you invest in her! :-) Pros: BEST "NEW WEAVE" more

Great Cut 1/21/2010

It been months since I had a great haircut but yesterday I walked into to Hair Architects without an appointment and five minutes later Alex was giving me a shampoo and fantastic massage...just what i needed. And my hair looks great! Thanks Alex Pros: Great Service Cons: non more

Jessica Dunn Rocks! 12/19/2009

Jessica has been very helpful to me with my skin issues. I have called her at home numerous times at different times in the day and she always returns my calls right away. I have very difficult skin to say the least, and this is the best that it's ever looked or felt. The skin products she uses are great! I would recommend Jessica to anyone. Whether they just want to treat themselves or if they have a serious skin condition. She is just wonderful. Pros: Jessica is very knowledgeable and helpful. Cons: None more

Under the magic hands of Jessica 12/18/2009

I have other estheticians work on my facials, but I have never experience such "magical touch" than from Jessica. She is really gifted and knowledgeable. My skin looks and feels so good I'm proud to say I'm 40 and enjoying it. The high quality products she uses combined with her many years of experience are the best in town. I will recommend anyone to go and experience one of her wonderful services, you will never regret it! Pros: Can you say...younger?! more

Jon Nickell 12/18/2009

Jon has done my hair for approximately 6 or 7 years now and I can't imagine going to anyone else. My mother is quite elderly and has some health issues and also goes to Jon for her hair. Jon is such a gentleman, he also assists my mom to get from chair to chair in the salon, that means so much to me. Again, what a fabulous salon!! Pros: Everything Cons: None more
