Bonne Vie Salon

Five stars for talented and knowledgeable stylists, a lovely salon, and a great location.
I was in desperate need of a haircut, but I needed it to be a great haircut. After some research, I landed on Bonnie Vie. It was a bit confusing because I think they have two Unilocal pages (with a different name), but the reviews seemed like everyone loved the stylists.
I made a reservation for 4 p.m. on a Saturday. The check-​in process was easy, and I was offered a beverage (they have wine, water, etc.). I was impressed enough with the shampooing to mention it here! After that, my stylist reviewed my hair and evaluated it against my face shape. She listened to what I wanted, looked at the pictures I brought in, and asked detailed questions about my morning routine.
She made a great suggestion based on the photos and I ended up with a lovely layered look that was exactly what I was hoping for (but a little bit better). While doing the cut she also (in a helpful manner) identified the things I did to my hair that were damaging it and made suggestions on how I could easily improve its health. When I asked about keratin treatments, she also told me about a special they were running that was a great deal!
Overall, Olga (my stylist) was talented and knowledgeable, the salon was lovely, and the Park Ave location is ideal. Highly recommended.

Not so much about the salon (which I LOVE) but about my stylist. Nicholas is a hair god (dess?) I don’t think I’ve ever left a chair feeling better… and I’ve never had as many people notice when I get cut. He’s professional, personable and will give you what you want before you know you want it. His fashion forward sense of style guarantees you will always turn heads when you walk by.

The hair stylist I’ve been going to for 10+ years moved, and I had to find someone new. So I went to Groupon and Unilocal and found Olga. Olga was very attentive to my hair needs and she did an amazing job. I had the Moroccan treatment, Partial highlights with haircut and style. My husband and all of my friends were impressed with the outcome. I really liked the customer service I received from the front desk and the salon was very chic. The Groupon price alone was amazing for the services provided but Olga went above and beyond to style and color my hair beautifully. I am very satisfied. My only reluctance in writing this review is I don’t want Olga to get so busy I can’t get an appointment! :-) Thank-​you :)

Used a groupon and met stylist Nicholas. What a personable and talented professional. What I wanted done was a little more but well worth it. From receptionist to young ladies that helped out, everyone was very nice.

I had Fatih and Olga. They both were very good. They cut differently so when I am tired of one style I just switch to the other. I have a hair that do not hold shape unless cut very well so far those two stylist’s cuts are the only one that lay nicely even after months go by.

Went in for a way over due hair cut. I had purchased a groupon for Hot scissors cut and moroccan oil treatment. The staff is extremely friendly and makes you feel so welcomed. Nick (believe that was his name) was my stylist and he did an amazing job on my hair. Walked out of there feeling like a million bucks. I’ll back in a couple weeks to add some color to my hair can’t wait.

Emil is one of a kind stylist. Also the owner of salon! His style and skill is unique and the conversation is always something to look forward to! Personality is huge for me when going to see the barber!

Emil and Tural really are the God’s of Hair! This place is trendy in an awesome part of downtown winter park. The conversation is superb. Only the best. Also had Jen do my hair recently and love the look! Bonnie Vie is amazing!

This is the best salon in Orlando. Lauren is one of the best and most beautiful managers I’ve ever seen, tending to people’s needs, and reassuring them for delays, as well as offering generous drinks. Her smiling disposition can brighten anyone’s day! Lindsay is a Goddess when it comes to hair, she’s brilliant and tended to my every concern, as well as giving expert advice. I highly recommend this salon, it’s first class in every aspect.

This was my first experience at Bonne Vie Salon and it was amazing. I have been looking for a salon since my stylist moved to the West coast last year. I saw Mike, who recently came here from New York. He is so talented, my hair looks amazing. I love it! The highlights are perfect and an amazing bright blonde, exactly what I wanted. Everyone there was so nice and helpful — Lauren is awesome at the front desk! Thank you Bonne Vie — love my highlights and I will be back to see Mike for a partial!

Love the hair salon, the stylists are amazing! Had my asian blonde ombré hair done by Lindsey and she is the best! The color came out perfect and she always knows what I am shooting for. They even offer you some wine when doing your hair and the gorgeous chandeliers are always a plus. Highly recommend it.

Amazing salon, Lindsay Echevarria is the best! She can do just highlights all the way to rainbow hair! She is awesome and great to work with! She knows all the newest styles and works extremely hard to make your experience one in a million! She did a color correction on me and got my hair back right and she recently did rainbow mermaid hair on me and I love it! If you want amazing hair then book with Lindsay!

People were nice and I tried two different people to cut mine and my daughters hair. Faith did a pretty good job, but the language barrier was a problem he does a fantastic job blow drying. The other guy I tried could understand me fine but not a very good hair cut or blow dry. Prices very with each person.

I have been using their services of over 2 years and I am always happy with the end results. The service is always great… Sometimes they are running behind but I end up with the complimentary hair treatment ;-)

Amy is the best in towmn make sure that your appointment is with her you wont be sorry!!!

I have always had my hair done by the same hair dresser since 9^th grade (I’m 25 now), and driving back to Melbourne just for a measly haircut is such a drag. To avoid this, I began doing research for a new hairdresser first by browsing the list of Groupon salons and then comparing Unilocal reviews of each Groupon to determine exactly which salon had the best reviews, hence the better bang for my buck (I’m used to payng $ 14 for a haircut). As I browsed for a couple hours, I determined that Bonne Vie Salon was the correct choice, specifically their hairdresser Fatih.
I called to make an appointment and mentioned the Groupon, but the receptionist informed me that Fatih does not accept the Groupon. Luckily I did not yet purchase the Groupon because I was still offered the Groupon’s price for the same deal (haircut, Moroccan oil, blow dry). I think it was $ 45 before tip.
I got there and was put to work. I had an image of the hairstyle that I wanted an exact replica of and he did just that. He wasn’t very talkative, something I had noted from a previous Unilocal review during my research, which I enjoyed because I’m not much of a talker either.
I have never had a good hair experience at a salon, until I came here. They have all been nightmares (all 3 of them), so for me I would say fourth time’s a charm. Highly recommend Fatih, he is brilliant at the art of hair cutting and styling.

I came here because I purchased a deal on Groupon: one haircut, one blowout, one Moroccan oil treatment and one ombré color for $ 100 when normally it would have cost upwards, $ 300. I have never had anything besides a haircut done at any salon and I was wanting some color amongst my jet black strands. I was super excited to go so I booked a morning appointment and waited patiently to be transformed into someone new.
When I arrived at the salon they had just opened their doors and the receptionist greeted me with the nicest and most sincere smile. She treated me with kindness and hospitality and made me feel very welcome in an unfamiliar setting. They offer complimentary coffee and water and serve it to you in a very nice glass goblet for the water, and a cute cup and saucer for the coffee. They go out of their way to make you feel like a celebrity here. Honestly, exceptional service.
My hairdresser, Cristina, spent time consulting me on what I wanted and I felt like she knew immediately what look I was going for. She chopped off 12″ before applying the dye and putting her magic to work. Most of my time was sent under the dryer looking like cray at lady with all the foils in my hair but the result was worth it. She made my hair transition from black to caramel, to dark blonde and then a light blonde on the ends. It looked (and still looks) phenomenal. I absolutely love the color and she did an outstanding job. After washing my hair, she applied the Moroccan oil which smoothed my hair and made it shiny. She then blow dried my hair into soft curls at the ends (something I could never achieve on my own).
This salon is exquisite and they make you feel like a million bucks!

I only go here to get my eyelash extensions but they always make me feel so welcome while I’m here. From calling to book the appointment (Lauren is SO awesome) to being greeted by genuine happy faces, its always such a pleasure to come into this salon.
Rachel does my eyelash extensions and every time I’m there it feels like I’m hanging out with a friend. She is nice, professional and explains the entire process so well! I can’t imagine going to anyone else.
I have not had any other services done here but I can attest to how nice the entire staff is and how beautiful and clean the salon is. It’s a welcoming place in every way!

This review is for Cristina she is
mom and I stumbled in here with a groupon when I first moved to winter park. Cristina actually did my moms hair the first time we came in and I thought it looked great the next time I needed a cut I requested her. She’s been my go to stylist ever since. I’ve had cut, color, conditioning treatments the works all from her. She even did a gorgeous ombré on my hair the last visit!
Now I loved the salon and Cristina’s awesome skills so much I brought a friend in with me recently and her experience with a different stylist (his name was Sam) was terrible. She also wanted ombré and to say this guy messed up her hair is an understatement. Not did her hair look like a 2 yr old tried to dye it but her stylist left the bleach in her already blonde hair for over an hr, completing frying her hair. She posted a photo under «Lynn F» to show what Sam did to her hair. You can see it in the Unilocal photos for this salon. No stylist is the same and that goes for any hair salon not just this one. But I did some digging and most of the bad reviews were because of Sam’s terrible work.
Moral of the story steer clear of Sam if you come to this salon. If you want an awesome stylist ask for Cristina!

Very friendly with positive attitudes and wine with your cut.
Emil did a great job cutting and styling my wife’s hair.
However, Sam spent more than 75 minutes cutting my hair, and though he gave me a very even cut, he didn’t do as I asked and cut way too much off everywhere, especially in the back. I went over this with him beforehand and he said he understood, as he has long hair himself. I now do not have any length nor curls, and my wife is disappointed (and so am I)!!! The lesson learned is NOT to spend too much time in his chair, as he obviously spent the 75+ minutes cutting each of my hairs three or four times!!!
Emil gets 5 stars. Sam gets 1 ½ stars. Salon gets 4 stars.
