I have been going to Salon 218 for over 13 years and I absolutely love it! I wish to thank them for working with my crazy schedule to ensure I look beautiful for my upcoming out of state trip. Today I got my lashes, and a wax with Alex- who is always smiling and strives to make your experience great! She does wonderful facials too and I often get compliments on how my face (skin) looks so I always go back. I also got my hair done by Robin, whose beautiful smile is contagious. She did my hair color and put in my extensions and I love the way it looks. Robin always makes sure I am comfortable and styles my hair beautifully each time I see her for my hair needs. I must say, both ladies as well as all the rest of the staff go out of their way to accommodate the customer and work well together to make your experience a great one- that's why I keep going back :) I also use their products, which help me maintain and strengthen my hair and I truly appreciate and enjoy the environment (particularly the Expresso coffee maker) anyhow, all I can say is that everyone is very customer oriented at Salon 218. My daughter also uses Salon 218 services, and she loves it! I give them a 5!! And once again thank you for working with me and my schedule! Love you ladies !

Sadly, I cannot give less than 1 star. I came to this salon multiple times for a specific stylist that I fell in love with, and I would often spend 3-4 hours there. My stylist was so patient and kind, and had every dream quality of someone you would want to do your hair. I never wanted to leave a bad review purely for the fact that she still was there and did not want to affect her business, but now unfortunately she is gone. The manager, Robin, is, in my opinion one of the most unprofessional, and questionable people I have ever seen in a professional setting. To begin with, the very first time I ever stepped foot into that salon, as I was waiting for my stylist to mix my bleach, I was approached by the manager, and asked to join in on what I now know as a pyramid scheme that she is involved in, some kind of "diet program". I have also witness her mention this to specifically heavier people, which is completely inappropriate. Her chair was across from where my stylist's was, and she would, very loudly, complain and talk to her clients, and also talk about specific things that should NOT be brought up in professional settings, such as religion and politics. Whenever she would interact with the other stylists, she was very openly rude and had a noticibly horrible attitude. It made me very uncomfortable, and my jaw would often drop at things she would say. The manager at this establishment makes the environment very uncomfortable and not welcoming whatsoever. Fortunately my stylist has moved to a new salon closer to me, and I never have to see this woman again. Don't waste your time here just to get your hair done. It's absolutely nothing special worth dealing with this manager. There are other services performed by other women that are great, and I feel terrible for them having to deal with this.

Was able to get a last minute appointment for gray touch up and actually ended up getting color correction as well. Beautiful salon and they are also a Spa which I will check out in the future. Treated so well by the owner and stylist Jade. She did a wonderful job on my hair and always asked questions about what I like as well as recommended different things. (Style, color, etc). Will definitely keep coming here.

I first want to say I have never written a review before and normally I don't like negative reviews of businesses. With that being said, I can not get out of my mind what I recently witnessed at Salon 218 and the shear nastiness of a staff member toward the other staff members Let me explain...... I booked an appointment with one of the stylist there and was eager to try something new with my hair and after speaking with the stylist on the phone, I was even more excited. She was very knowledgeable and suggested we discuss when she saw my hair. I walked into the salon for my appointment and was greeted by a very friendly young girl. Sat down, met my stylist, got to chatting, and everything seemed great. Here's the creepy part, another stylist who was working across the room kept looking over and almost giving me a look of disgust, she kept doing this over and over and I started getting very uncomfortable. After a 1/2 hour or so, this stylist walks over to where I'm sitting and starts interrogating the stylist doing my hair, she was so rude and insulting, I couldn't believe what she was saying to my stylist right in front of me. It was so unprofessional, unnecessary, and she even used profanity, I was speechless and pretty much bullying my stylist. I was shocked and at that moment I wanted to leave because it was so uncomfortable. My stylist whole demeanor completely changed and she looked embarrassed and ashamed. I felt horrible for her. Come to find out the "mean girl" was the manager!!!! I was stunned!!! This manager continued to insult, be negative, be unkind, and 100% unprofessional to every staff member that she came into contact with. I have never felt so uncomfortable and sad for these women that work there in my entire life and I truly mean that. It has bothered me so much that after several days have passed and I still can't get it out of my mind. This manager was purposely going out of her way to attack the staff, it was disgusting. I loved the way my hair turned out, it was beautiful, and my stylist was excellent!! Unfortunately I will NEVER walk through the doors of that salon EVER again because of the inhuman way those girls were treated that day. For the "manager"...... If you were representing my business, you would be fired immediately!!! Your behavior, cruel intentions, and your unkind words to everyone you came into contact with, and I watched personally watched you for almost 2 hours. You didn't care that clients were there, you didn't care using vulgar language, and most importantly you didn't care that you purposely made another human being feel less than, actually you made several ladies feel that way. My advice to you is either be more aware of your behavior or get out of a business were you are in the publics view. It takes a lot of effort and wasted energy to be unkind, being kind and friendly is so much easier. In today's society and the negative world we live in, no one deserves how you CHOSE to treat those girls. I too own a business in this town, it's a small town and word travels fast. I highly suggest being aware of your behavior and I pray you are not spoken too or treated the way you treat others. I purposely did not put names in my review because I could only image the retaliation that would ensue. I will pray for you and your staff, God bless

I just had my hair cut today at Salon 218 for the first time. With C-19 my hair had grown long and unmanageable, but Rosalie did a brilliant job cutting it short. She is highly, highly recommended for a man's haircut, as I am sure for women. Extremely personable and professional. Don't wait!

I saw Rosalie and she did an amazing job on my hair and was extremely friendly and responded back to me really quickly. She dyed my hair the perfect color of blonde and had great dimension. Really made sure she gave me what I wanted. Excited to have found her and will be going there regularly.
