Cristophe Salon

Quite and unfortunate experience. I made 2 appointments for wash, ‘blow dry and style’ for myself and another bridesmaid for the day of a wedding we were in. I tried to make sure over the phone when I made the appointment and when I called the week before to confirm that they understood that my hair is frizzy and curly and would need help!
They didn’t wash or blow dry the other bridesmaids hair and charged the same.
Although I was a few minutes late to start, my wash and blow dry was lovely and facilities were very beautiful but the appointment took an hour and fifteen min longer than I was assured it would take, putting me at an hour before the ceremony to get around in the Vegas casino maze! ACK! So stressful, and on top of it all, the curl or ‘style’ I asked for didn’t even last until the ceremony.
I am so sad that my hair looks like flat crap in my friends wedding photos when I paid $ 85 plus a good tip because I thought it took so long so that it would actually STAY.
2 other bridesmaids also got their hair done here and were also very disappointed in the value.
On the upside, the bride also got her hair done here and whoever did hers, did a fabulous job and she looked glorious for the entire ceremony and reception. A bit of silver lining.

Just had a marvelous blow out with Eric! Recommend him highly! Not too pricey considering location & hotel salon pricing.

Loved this place !!! Prices are decent & the service is great and to top it off customer service was amazing. I’ve been to a lot of different salons and somehow I always end paying more, as usual I asked before my service and did not receive Any «surprise charges» at checkout!!! yay!!! Love love love this place !

Outstanding!!! Stopped in while in town at a conference for a hair cut. I have to say I took a chance and walked in to see if they had an appointment which they did, my stylist was Irene, right off the bat she knew exactly EXACTLY what I wanted, and started cutting. We had wonderful conversation and when she was done it was better then I expected. More then pleased with my hair cut, best hair cut I have had in a while!!! Now I have to come back for my hair cuts.

Eric is a master of his craft. Took my long, dull, lifeless hair and made it voluminous and bouncy while preserving my length.

Needed to get my roots done and a trim and I was very hesitant coz I love my usual girl but when in Rome.. So I went to this salon based on reviews and it was a great experience! Getting there through the casino took forever but worth it! Great dye job and Irene did a fabulous cut and braided my hair so good! I was pampered, loved it! Will be back!

Eric– I am still loving my hair after all these years!
Seriously people, if you are reading this review (guys and girls) and just feel «okay» about your stylist, you better get to the Christophe and see Eric STAT!
Just when I think my hair has peaked, I see Eric and he takes my style to a whole new level. Finally, after 8 years, I let him give me a side swooping bang… It might have changed my life! I know that is dramatic but sometimes I just have to tell it like it is.
He gives me attention through the whole process, from wash through blowout, and is genuine the whole time. I have previously reported getting carded at the slot machines, but today I got carded playing poker with a platinum card. Um, hello? When does that actually happen? Quote the cocktail server, «I don’t mean to be offensive but I need to see your ID.» I was not offended and quickly told her Eric is awesome and keeps me looking young
Where do I go when in Vegas? Top of the list is Eric at The Christophe salon at MGM to keep me looking amazing and feeling great… Give that man a raise!

As a local, I love this place!!! I have been going here for many years and have yet to be disappointed! My stylist is Eric, and he literally saved my hair. I had been going to another prominent salon at Caesar’s palace before going to Cristophe salon (switched to Cristophe as my hair was thinning and getting more brittle at the other salon). I found out that my hair, already thin, was being texturized, causing my hair to look like a dead mop! The colorist I had been seeing at the last salon, who has a lot of influence over there, does Paris Hilton’s hair yet could not see that his stylist was clueless. In fact, I remember that he made me feel like I was doing something wrong! As soon as I got to Cristophe, I had answers to why my hair was so «limp». Since being at Cristophe for a few years, my hair is now strong, healthy, longer and just plain gorgeous! The prices here are also very reasonable, unlike most salons on the strip.
I also have to mention that I have an amazing hair colorist. I cannot say enough about this salon, except that I am certain it is one of the best, if not the best, salon in Vegas.
Also, on occasion, I have had my hair styled by Campbell, and he too is full of incredible talent.

Worst service ever, just came in to get my nail fixed and they told me its 43 $ and they have to do all my nails over. But then told me to fix a nail is 12 $ but said I can’t do that. So confused. Never again!!!

Located in the back of the MGM Grand this place is amazing! Very professional and courteous staff. Irene (from Italy) was amazing. Received the best hair cut!
Highly recommend Cristophe Salon and Irene!

Brenda is my favorite for color and Juan is my favorite for blow outs!!! Brice is the best with mens hair btw (I refuse for my husband to go anywhere else in Vegas)! Claude’s salon in Wynn messed up my hair and Brenda completely turned my orange hair to a beautiful pale blonde!

I have been to a lot of salons & all of the mgm salons & this one is the best & my favorite !! The salon isn’t dated & corny looking like some others in Vegas. I do skin weft extensions & Juan Mejia is my hair angel !! He is the best stylist I ever had & I will keep him for life!!! I go to Vegas just for him to do my hair now & I will never go anywhere else :) He even comes to my room to do my extensions! And he makes my day he’s that kind of person :) Brenda does my color & I love her too! The salon is cute & modern & you can watch tv while they shampoo you lol 6 stars for the salon & 10 stars for Juan Mejia!
And they do use Olaplex! :)
Update: my hair is now above the shoulder aline Bob thanks to skin weft & other tape in extensions. Cristophe is great but DO NOT do extensions it’s not worth it

I visited here for New Year’s eve to have my make up applied for our night out in Vegas. I read on their website that the cost was $ 75.00 which I felt was fair for a special occasion.
First I arrived 20 minutes early and they were 30 minutes late getting me in which meant I sat for almost an hour and it put me behind.
When they did get me back there, I felt like the artist (who was very nice) just rushed through my make-​up. To be fair it looked really good BUT I had wanted a little more but I felt like she was in a hurry. She applied false lashes, which in hind-​sight I should have realized would be an up-​charge. She never asked if I wanted them, she just put them on.
When I went to check-​out the line was super long and everyone seemed confused. I understand it was New Years eve but I was already 30 minutes behind and it took another 20 minutes to check out.
When they gave me my total it was 175.00. I thought I had made a mistake and looked at their website wrong so I went ahead and paid it along with a tip. When i got back to the hotel I was really sick about spending 175.00 for makeup application so I looked at their website again and the price was 75.00.
I called the manager and it sounded like mayhem when speaking with her. When I told her I had been charged 175.00 she asked my why. I said that is why I am calling you. It turns out there was another Lori and they charged me for her services cut and color even though I told them it was make-​up application. She said no you should have been charged 75.00 plus 25.00 for lashes so a total of 100.00 plus a tip. They then told me I needed to come back down so they could credit my card and re-​charge me. I told them I was at Mandalay Bay and could not come back. I had to give them my card again over the phone so they could credit me the difference and then worry about my card number laying around.
It just was not a good experience with the lateness of the artist, the lashes charge that I did not ask for, the mess up on the charges, and then the manager acting like I had put her out. I do not mind paying for services that I ask for in a salon but when the experience is bad and over-priced…that is not a good feeling.

CAROLYN is the ABSOLUTE BEST! I’m in Vegas for a long weekend and after visiting the salon last night for my long hair to be curled and a makeup application, I am back again tonight! My natural hair is shoulder length and does not hold a curl no matter what. I have extensions in down to the middle of my back. Carolyn gave me huge beautiful curls that held all night! My makeup was absolutely gorgeous with contouring and a smokey eye done by Cole. The salon is pricey but absolutely worth it! Both Carolyn and Cole are fantastic, extremely sweet and very professional. I asked Carolyn about my extensions and what she thought of the work and she gave me an HONEST and professional opinion! Love the girls and love the salon! Will most definitely be back!

Kelly has brought me from all-​over blonde highlights, to «boom» red hair with a platinum chunk, to brown hair, and we have slowly made my hair more blonde and more blonde. My hair is still healthy and thick since this is a process that we have done over time. I have to say that I’ve never loved my hair color so much. I get a ton of compliments on my hair from friends to strangers in passing.
Kat has been cutting my hair for years and has helped it grow back to its full potential. Five years ago, I had went somewhere else and got my hair bleached blonde. The process was too fast and ruined my hair so I ended up having to cut it shoulder-​length. Kat has done regular trims on it, not to take length, but to take off the dead ends and keep my hair healthy. Since the, my hair has grown more than halfway down my back. She has been consistently wonderful at styling my hair whenever I have an event to attend or just want that extra boost of confidence with a rocking hair style. She has also recommended me some Kerastase products that have been feeding my hair nutrients and keeping it voluminous.
All of the other stylists and staff are always more than welcoming and always strike up a conversation when they see someone who frequents the salon. I recommend all of my friends to Kelly for color and Kat for their cut and style.
I have to say that this place keeps getting better and better.

I had Campbell for my style and I was completely 100% happy with it. Everyone was extremely friendly and helped me in anyway I needed. I would recommend coming here.

My now wife went to Christophe to get a mani, pedi, hair and makeup done for the wedding. She wanted me along for the ride.
This place is a very inviting place. It’s not cozy or necessarily warm but it has the feel of being a place for pampering which is exactly what you’re looking for.
We were greeted warmly and offered a beverage while we waited as we were 10 minutes early. At every stage of the appointment, even as a tag-​a-​long, they made sure I was just as comfortable as my wife.
The hair and makeup were done superbly by their staff. The mani/​pedi were ok. The nail polish was a little bit sloppy and could have been done with a little more precision.
Price for this was actually very reasonable.

Can I just say that Erik (or Eric) gave me a life-​changing experience with my hair! He cut my hair 12 inches into the perfect shape and style for my personality, look and vibe. He is a true genius and my life quality has been better since I went to him. You won’t regret this decision!

After I botched my own haircut, I figured it would be good to find some external help. The salon is tucked away from the casino, located down a hallway past the front spa reception. The salon is bright and gorgeously decorated.
My haircut was done by an assistant /​stylist-​in-​training, so it was complimentary. She did a nice cut, but was a little too careful so it took a long time. The haircut was checked by one of the regular stylists, who pointed out a few things to make my hair a little better. The end result looked great. Nicely layered, and didn’t give me «triangle hair» which I sometimes get due to my wavy thick hair.

This review is for Christophe’s very talented makeup artist Spencer Lopez. I followed her over from her previous salon and I will continue to follow her wherever she goes! I have been seeing Spencer for over a year now for all of my Vegas makeup needs and I leave her chair a satisfied client each and every time. If you want flawless makeup that photographs very well you have to see Spencer! She uses products the pros use and has her technique down to a t! For examples of her work you can check out Christophe Salon Las Vegas on Facebook and I have a picture on my Unilocal page from a night that she did my makeup.
Prices are very reasonable for a hotel salon on the Strip and lower than what I expected for being a Christophe Salon. Cost is $ 75 for a makeup application and $ 25 additional each for airbrush and for lashes. The salon is located by the MGM pools and it’s quite a long walk from the garage but so worth it for the end result! I would make that long trek again to get all dolled up by Spencer :)
Update Jan. 2013: Spencer no longer works at the salon.
