So happy with my hair. Jenay did amazing! I went in to the salon not sure on what exactly I wanted. I showed her some pictures of different colors and cuts and told her to do what she thought would look good. I was definitely NOT disappointed. I am so thankful to finally find my new stylist. I will definitely be back. Thank you Jenay and to all the staff at Axis Salon.

I'm a bit picky about my bangs and am not the best communicator on how I want it to look but Della was patient and helpful and most of all, did a great job! She really took her time to do a good job rather than rush me out like I've had happen before at other salons. Everyone was friendly as well, which is always appreciated. I will be coming back!

Critical: Quality My boyfriend went in for a manicure and they didn't even soak his nails or do anything with his cuticles. So basically they cut his nails only. Just because he is a man doesn't mean he doesn't want the full manicure experience. His cuticles needed work. He ended up going somewhere else after. Very disappointing. Service: Pedicures

Brook was amazing and did a wonderful job on my hair, I have already received several compliments. However, I also purchased a groupon and the lady that was doing it seemed very inexperienced. She's 21 and said she worked for Waxing In The City previously but I wasn't able to pick up on prior experience. She melted the wax three times and it was super hot, then it wouldn't come off my skin and she was having trouble taking it off, she told me she was done with my legs and there are tons of patches where didn't even attempt to wax the hair and I was supposed to do a Brazilian but it was an awful experience that I didn't even want to continue it.

I came home and I have tons of wax stuck all over me as well as my left knee wasn't even waxed, most of my left and right thigh wasn't waxed and my lower legs are patchy. She kept leaving the room to get more sticks and would just open the door while I'm laying there uncovered. I didn't want to give a 1 because of Brook but if I was just rating the wax it would of been 1, waste of money on the Groupon, didn't end up getting my legs and Brazilian. I would go back for the hair appointment with Brook but I would not go back for the wax.

I got a root touch up and wanted to go a little lighter with my hair which my stylist said was totally doable. I left with my hair in braids but when I took them out I noticed my hair was uneven in several areas. I contacted my stylist to come back in for a touch up and she said she was surprised that I hadn't asked for a redo sooner (who lets someone leave with hair they know needs to be fixed?).

After my touch up it was a little better but still not what I wanted and not what I asked for. To my surprise they charged me to fix their mistake, even knowing I was still unhappy with it. If you have long or thick hair, know that you will be charged $30 for each extra bowl of color.

Yes it's true in my adult life I have never gotten a haircut in a Salon! Yes I have been to many barber shops, and yes it's true I cut my own hair from time to time! But this was a blast! Jaclynn was fantastic and made the experience fun and exciting! She took her time and made sure my cut was exactly what I came for! I got a shampoo and cut for only 37 bucks and it was totally worth it!

The music she was playing was right up my alley and her conversation flow made the haircut experience all the better! Axis is super nice and clean! They do cuts, nails, pedi, massage too! Convenient location on Ingersoll and booking was a breeze! Got a reminder text before my appointment too! This was an enjoyable experience!

Amazing place to get your hair cut. Janey did a wonderful job on my hair, she was awesome at explaining her products and not making you feel obligated or overwhelmed. Definitely going back again! Would absolutely recommend!

I came here for a massage and a haircut. The massage was excellent. First off, many masseuses are super concerned and careful when you tell them "please just do whatever it takes to get the knots out. You can literally punch me in the back, I assure you." Well, she didn't punch me, far from it. However, she DID do exactly what I asked and put her all into getting the stubborn knots out.

This takes some serious pressure, and I felt immensely relieved afterward. Brooke was my stylist and I liked her a lot. She's got a personality that really resonated with me, and I liked her vibe. I came to her with brown hair and left with electric blue. She did a good job and it was a fun day! The only thing I didn't like was whatever dye they use at Axis. Brooke said they do organic, vegan, animal-friendly whatever stuff as much as possible, and I don't recall exactly what brand the dye was.but it faded and transferred more and faster than any other vivid I've ever had, and I've had a lot! Good on them for being ethical, though!

I did full highlights. They does not look great. I was expecting nice brown highlights. After spending so much of money my hair looks very same as they were before. Also I got stain of hair color while washing my hair. I am not able to remove it. This is not expected from any professional hair salon. Very disappointed.

Found this place on Groupon. Jasmin was my stylist and she listens to what look I was going for. She's a sweet gal. When I get my hair done I like a relaxing experience, so I don't talk much and she followed suit. Don't judge the place by the outside, the salon is beautiful. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is the music that was playing, rock is definitely not for all customers.

I see Tiffany every 6 weeks and she is beyond amazing. One of my former coworkers suggested I go there and see her and I won't look back. She aims to fit my needs and wants and makes sure I'm happy with the color and style before I leave. If you're thinking about going to this salon I highly suggest it. Everyone is so friendly and accommodating! Ask for Tiffany :

I went into this salon for the first time using a Groupon. The owner Janay meet with me and I felt very comfortable with our consultation. I showed her a photo and we talk about wanting blood highlights and I was very descriptive and concerned with the length I wanted my hair cut to. She even acknowledged my concern by saying we can cut off a little and go from there. Needless to say she did my hair exactly the way she wanted.

My hair was less blond than went I went into the salon. She charged me $20 extra for a toner to soften my blond. It made in much darker and I was not happy. To top it all of my hair was about two inches shorter than the picture I had shown her. I was very upset with the results. I would never go back there again. The normal cost for this sreview is about $160 without the Groupon.

I had medium length hair that I would now call a semi-short bob. I will pay good money to have my hair look good but this is on the very expensive side. I am sorry that she did not listen to what I wanted and I guess my hair will be the length I want it to be in 2 months. :

Nothing worse than a stylist that doesn't listen to what you want. When I say "I'm trying to grow it out" somehow that meant take two inches of the top and cut my hair like a Hitler youth. Thanks for ruining months of growth in 10 minutes.

I am 44 years old and Jenay only the 3rd stylist in my life that understood my hair. I have wavy hair that just looks frizzy and weighed down when it's overgrown. I wait so long between cuts (because I have such an awful experience) that stylists often do not believe that I have wave in my hair, sigh. Luckily, Jenay was not like this at all. Once I said I like my waves she cut and styled it so they were highlighted.

I have rarely seen my waves so prominent, it was awesome! I just changed my profile photo to how my waves looked after this cut and style. I am definitely going back. The salon is easy to find, prices are reasonable (I just moved from San Francisco so that it actually seems really affordable to me at the moment) and they do a huge discount if you are a new client and mention the new client discount (see their website for more info on that).

It looks like they also have salon services, and I look forward to checking those out once the sting of moving cross country has worn off. In short, go here, you will be so happy you did.

I love Axis Salon. The service and ambiance here just rocks. Have always gotten great cuts and color here. I feel relaxed as soon as I walk in the door. I have very fine hair and the average stylist usually doesn't know how to make it work, but at AXIS, they do a fantastic job with fine hair, so if you have that problem, this is the place to go. They have a lot of different services to offer. Next time I might schedule a massage before my hair appointment for the ultimate experience.

Just moved from omaha and needed to find a new stylist. It seems I have found it the first one. Bought a groupon thinking I will shop around. Lana did an amazing job and I will be a returning customer: Did a cut and highlights. I have colored hair so she knew exactly what to do.

I went here bc I had purchase a groupon for this place. I love it! Lana was very nice and knew what I wanted. I really don't like cutting my hair and she made sure to trim to what I had specified. She was very informative about hair products plus they had a buy 2 get one free sale, just had to get them. I love the color and the cut. Plus she gave me some places to check out In Des Moines since we just moved here. Definitely found my hair salon!

Bought a groupon to get manicure and pedicure for half off. The salon is nice and newly remodeled but the manicure and pedicure was horrible. I felt like it was done by a child. The color was uneven and the polish was scattered on my finger not the nail part. Not to mention the brush strokes were uneven also. It was horrible that I removed the Polish as soon as I got home. Totally not worth it even with the groupon. I didn't catch the name of the manicurist. All I know is that she was Latina and she came from california.
