The New You Salon

I highly recommend Kelsey Kelly! She’s fantastic — listened to my concerns about my screwed up haircut and gave me her recommendations. I’ve been to her 3 times now and she has managed to get my hair back in shape. She’s excellent with color and highlighting too. The salon is nothing special, but Kelsey is always on time and she uses great products.

Worst blow out ever. Tried to treat my best friend to a blow out for both of us– we scheduled within 15 mins of each other and they ended up doing her first, then me. So much for a girls afternoon together.
Our hair was over-​dried, leaving it dry, frizzy and nappy. We’re white girls who take amazing care of our hair. It’s going to take months to fix the damage.
Style-​wise, 10 minutes later my curl and volume were flat.
The shampoo didn’t even get rid of all the oil at the roots.
Overall, a huge failure and disappointment. We could’ve done a better job at home. Total waste of $ 80.

We’ll I wasn’t going to leave a review because I am not the person to complain. This salon is the worst salon that I have ever been too. I went in for color and style before an important party that I had to attend. I came out crying!!! It was a Sunday and not a lot of salons were open to fix what was damaged. My hair was very dry and I ended up walking out in the middle of her completing the style… I had to get my hair completely re-​done, and fixed leaving me with no time to get ready for the party. I ended up going to 6 salon in Birmingham. The stylist that fixed my hair squeezed me in and completed my hair and another customers within an hour. The stylist at 6 felt so bad for me that she didn’t charge me a dime for fixing my hair!!! She had to fix the color, cut, and style. This is not the end of the story. I called several times to get a refund and they hung up on me. In the end they did refund my money after calling several times. I will never return too this salon they are disorganized, un-​professional, and they do not know how to do hair!!!

I had an appointment to have my extensions worked on. Only «Billy» does extensions. The appointment was pre-​booked for raising and highlight. I had an extension hanging, … but, waited 3 days for the appointment. When I got there,. I checked in and waited 30 minutes. FINALLY,. someone came and sat next to me to tell me «Billy is out of town.» My hair was literally ready to rip out. I was in tears and she told me «there is nothing we can do. Nobody else does extensions.» They didn’t even try. And, … never heard a word since. Thank GOD for Six!!!
Do not go to New You. They don’t care.

This salon is great! I first came here to redeem a groupon/​living social deal I purchased. In reality, I probably didn’t even need to purchase a deal because the prices here are very reasonable! I have gotten my hair cut by Billy and Lydia and they both do excellent work! I am always pleased when I leave here. The atmosphere is friendly and non-​pretentious, yet still has the professional feel of a high end salon. Even though it gets pretty busy, they still manage to fit me in last minute, which I love! I have complete confidence that all the stylists here would do a fantastic job!

I had a HORRIBLE experience with this salon. I went to get highlights the day before I left for Mexico and Cathy (one of the owners might I add) destroyed my hair. She let the bleach bleed and it made streaks and spots all over my head. I’m pretty sure she knew she messed it up too because she suddenly got really busy and didn’t have time to dry it. I didn’t think anything of it and went home and dried it later that night and noticed what had happened and I couldn’t do anything about it because I was getting on a plane at 5am. My mom took pictures and went back and got the overpriced $ 100 back the next day. End of story, my hair was destroyed and I had to cut it insanely short and start over. Needless to say I will NEVER go back. If you want blonde highlights go to Blonde ambition salon, they’re awesome!

I highly recommend Krista! I’ve had issues finding someone who can cut curly hair. It’s a skill that’s hard to find, probably because a lot of ladies with curly hair just straighten it anyway. I’m wayyyy too lazy for that! I’d rather sleep the extra 20 minutes and just scrunch before I go. She also whipped up the perfect hair color for me after hearing my feedback on one of the hair color samples. Plus she’s totally fun. Two thumbs up!

I took advantage of a Groupon last week. Yes, a new salon experience CAN AND WAS FANTASTIC!
I completely enjoyed my hair experience with Kathy at The New You Salon! In fact, she is a fantastic hairdresser, great listener, very happy with my cut, also supplies organic products!
I am a convert and look forward to seeing Kathy on a regular basis!

Lydia did my hair on my wedding day, along with the hair of a couple of my bridesmaids, and it all looked incredible. The bridesmaids were free to choose their own styles, and they both wound up with looks that were flattering, unique, and held up all day. As for me, well, you must understand that I was a hugely disorganized bride prone to last-​minute planning — there are photos of me with a phone to my ear, a laptop open and Lydia calmly pushing pins into my head. I showed her a fuzzy picture of a woman whose hair was probably horsetail thick and a foot longer than mine, and yet she produced pretty much the same look. I gave her a handmade birdcage veil that we’d pieced together the night before, and she secured it beautifully. I got a ton of compliments, and actually just left the hair up well after the reception, just because I loved it. Even a hairdresser pal hanging out with us as we prepared said that Lydia really showed that she knew what she was doing — remaining calm in the middle of craziness, and creating some gorgeous wedding hair.

The worst haircut I ever received. I asked her to fix it because it was about one inch shorter on one side. She said she didn’t see it. I showed her and she cut it too short on the other side. Finally, I asked to talk to the owner because the stylist just couldn’t fix it without cutting all of my hair off. The owner just nodded and mmmhhmmm’d me but said she couldn’t do anything. If I had another stylist fix it, they would have to charge me. Then, all of the other stylists, etc. stood around just looking at me. I had to get out of there and cry. NEVER AGAIN.
