I've been bleaching my hair for about 3 years now. For the last 1.5 of those years - I've lived in 4 different states. That being said, it's been stressful finding a new hairstylist every time I move. I had 3-4 horrible experiences in a row with various stylists across America who did not know what they were doing with blonde hair. For that reason, I took about a 7 month break from touching my hair with anything because it was so fried from being improperly bleached.

I've only been in Iowa for two months and I just now decided to try again. Let me just say I almost cried happy tears when Coco finished with my hair. See my before and after pictures (which are NOT filtered or edited in any way). Prior to this hair appointment, I had high anxiety because I've been used to leaving hair salons crying ugly, displeased tears.

I'm SO glad I chose to put my trust in someone again. I did some research beforehand and Anani had great reviews so I called and asked for someone who was experienced with blonde hair. I was given an appointment with Coco for this morning. She is PHENOMENAL at what she does. My hair went into her hands as a damaged, dry, and nappy bundle of discolored hay.

My hair left her hands feeling healthy and strong, while looking like the hair of someone straight out of a hairstyle advertisement magazine. When she was done after the coloring, treatment, shampoo, toning, and conditioning - I literally about choked up from being so overwhelmingly thankful. Coco is also so, so sweet & her kindness and quirkiness put me at ease for this whole visit. I can't say enough good things about this salon or her skills. Coco - thank you so so much for giving me my confidence back.

I had a great haircut by stylist, Andrea. It was my first visit with Andrea as I needed a cut and my regular stylist was not available for several weeks. She took time to carefully style my hair after the cut and provide some tips to help me create the same look at home. She did a great job! I would recommend Andrea if you are looking to update your haircut/style.

I had great service! I had a lot of issues to correct from a poor haircut I suffered at a different salon. The stylist did an amazing cut and was able to really fix my issues. I loved her consult and the suggestions she provided for how to style my hair and help keep it healthy. Services: Haircut, Hairstyling

This place is hands down my favorite salon (and believe me I've gone to many different salons/stylists). I have had my hair colored by various stylists at Anani and they all have exceeded my expectations no matter who I go to. And us bottle blondes are pretty picky with our color! These ladies are miracle workers, so much talent in one little shop. Cozy environment and everyone is always so helpful/friendly.

They use luxury products and I always leave here feeling my ABSOLUTE BEST. I have recommended this place to almost everyone I know lol. 10/10 would recommend both Kat and Heidi, they are so so talented

I have been coming to Anani for a while now and couldn't be happier with the salon and service. Kaylee is an exceptional stylist! Very attentive, easy to work with, and so friendly. She's also great with my 6yo daughter! Kaylee always listens to what you say and is good with checking in regarding how I'm feeling about my cut and coloring while she's working. Hands down the best in Ankeny!

I went here to correct my hair. I had an excellent client experience it's just that I paid 3 times for an error on the stylists behalf when I asked specifically for a toning treatment and got 3 glazes instead and it didn't last. Then my hair treatment that I was recommended ended up drying out my hair. Once again great overall experience- wonderful people and so nice!

But I was definitely overcharged for something I could've avoided had she followed my initial request. And the products I took home were less than amazing. But this was my first ever experience here. Thank you again for your patience and service!

First time visit and Dani and everyone I interacted with was amazing! Went for a cut and color and my hair can be difficult sometimes with coloring and Dani took time to change it after the original process and made sure I loved it before I left. The cut is beautiful and she made some great product recommendations to preserve the color! Beautiful salon as well! Definitely would recommend!

Best salon in the Des Moines area! Love all of the wonderful and talented staff. I've gone here for years, and Danielle Neef recently styled my hair for my wedding! What an amazing job. Thanks Anani for making my wedding day extra special!

Can I just say WOW? I scheduled an appointment for a lash lift here and instantly felt welcome and calmed the second I walked in. They took me in the waiting room and shut the door, they have essential oils and drinks for while you wait and the place just smelled amazing. Finally when they were ready for me, the cutest lady ever took me to her room to get started.

Unfortunately I cannot remember her name but I enjoyed conversation with her throughout the entire lash lift process. She was super professional and made me feel very comfortable and the results were amazing! They lasted for about 5 weeks and I decided I would go back a month before my wedding!

I moved to the Des Moines area a few years ago and tried several salons before landing at Anani. I can't imagine going anywhere else- every service I've had is fantastic from start to finish. I've been to Liz for my last two trims and she is welcoming and knowledgeable. She was able to determine what kind of cut I was looking for with just a few questions. She is seriously talented- I couldn't be happier with the results. I cannot recommend this salon highly enough!

I have been going here for 8 years now and can't imagine going elsewhere. I started off seeing a good friend for the majority of the time until she moved out of state, but have since established relationships with other stylists there. All the employees there are friendly and easy to chat with. Don't forget the spa treatments! Dee is amazing.

I have tried a variety of the treatments and always leave there totally relaxed and rejuvenated, not wanting to leave the serene sanctuary they create. Other goodies - I love the smell of the salon and spa. Wish they could bottle and sell that. So relaxing! Also, sipping on red wine while getting my haircut. Had not experienced that in other salons.

The salon is very pretty and the front desk staff did go out of there way to accommodate my friend to join me for a pedicure (which was just days before the appointment) I booked mine a month out. When they told me they had no one available for a second pedicure, they offered to have a new staff member do the pedicure at no charge because she was in training.

I thought this was very impressive how the front desk staff went out of there way to accommodate us. However when the day of our pedicures came we did get the new girl in training and she was very nice. But they charged us full price. The experience was good I was just disappointed in the lack of communication between the staff. I would try this salon again.
