Great salon, love Sonia. She has such a wonderful way with styling. Tina for brows. Wow. Highly recommended. So detailed and explains the whole micro blading process.

I had my hair done by Melissa and she was fantastic. I found this place by searching reviews and the only bad review I could find was not only ridiculous but I went to that persons other reviews and let's just say.she one starred menards and Taco Bell, I knew I was not reading anything honest. Anyhow, Melissa took a look at the photos a brought in and before getting started she went through the color book with me and even suggested I try "curtain bangs", I told her I trust her and she worked her magic.

She had me completely colored, cut and styled in about 2 hours. She did a shadow root which is new to me and I like how natural it turned out! The employees were really nice from the start. I was greeted quickly by a gentleman who was hair drying his client. While Melissa worked on me 2 other ladies working came over to talk to us. Overall I felt very welcome and everyone was really friendly!

I love this salon. Had the best extension service here. I've had a lot of extensions, but these are by far the best!

Had my hair colored by Melissa today and it's gorgeous! She took time to listen to my requests, used her expertise in consulting with me on color and style and even took the time to show me additional ways to style my hair. Excellent service!

New to Parkville and looking for a salon. I arrived at 1:20 for a 1:30 appointment and am now sitting in my car 1:47 because I was never called back or acknowledged after my initial check-in. Must be great to be so busy you can have lousy customer service and stay in business. I will keep looking for a good place in Parkville.

The communication to make the appointment was easy and prompt. It was very clear to arrange a meeting time and there were multiple ways to do it, so I could choose whichever was easiest for me, which was email. I got a different hairstylist than the one I thought I was planning to get, but she was great as well. She introduced herself as Katie, and asked if I wanted anything to drink, and water was shortly brought out to me.

I felt pampered with the hair wash in the relaxing wash room, and after showing her inspiration pics, she got the cut to look very close to that and perfect for my own hair and face. She had many years of experience and gave me a great cut. The inside of the building looked upscale and stylish, with great interior design choices. The open floor plan gave a friendly atmosphere for the hairstylists to talk to each other, but also enough distance for privacy and room for a huge mirror to observe the cut. I will definitely be going back, it was a great experience.

My mom and I have been going to Rio for years. My mom started going to Sonia, the owner, in the 90s and it's the only place we've gone since. I got my first haircut as a toddler at Sonia's salon back when it had a different name in a different location! It's a high end salon with quality results no matter which stylist you visit.

We feel like family there. I would recommend them over and over, and we have, clearly as I've been going to them my whole life I trust them with my curly locks time after time.

Rio Salon is a beautiful and clean salon. They sell incredible products. Kristi B. is my stylist there, and I couldn't be happier. She loves to cut and style hair, and will do everything to ensure you have what you want. She's also very knowledgeable about the products and great at teaching you how to style like she is. Every time I leave I have the products and knowledge I need to love my hair every day, thanks to her help! I'd highly recommend her to anyone.

I highly recommend Kristi at Rio Salon. I've been going to her for 2 years now. She fixed a hair disaster and I've been coming back ever since. Kristi knows what will work with your hair type and helps you decide on a look that looks best. She is very good and passionate about her craft which is why I'd recommend her to anyone wanting a quality cut or color. She's fabulous with balayage and highlighting.

It's official, I'm spoiled and there is no going back. Rio salon offers a great staff and relaxed environment. Kristi cuts my hair and has always done an amazing job! She not only provides a great hair cut and style but great conversation and an incredible shampoo with scalp massage! A+ Rio, don't change!

PEOPLE! I just got my hair highlighted in under an HOUR! Long story short I have been struggling with my hair and finding the right fit and this amazing stylist Courtney at Rio Salon in Parkville got me in and out and my hair PERFECT in 60 minutes! Whaaaaat! Even my baby sat there cooing away the whole time. Moms don't have time to sit in a stylist chair for hours so I'm just so thankful I found this wonderful stylist that works fast and accurately! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU COURTNEY

I called Rio almost two years ago and asked if they had a stylist that had a gift for cutting short hair. They recommended Kristi Buccheri. She updated my pixie into a cut I just love. She has great knowledge of color and has made my blonde pop! She also cuts my nine year old daughter's hair. Olivia looks forward to going and always leaves feeling happy with her style. I enjoy my time in Kristi's chair - you leave with great hair and have the benefit of fun and caring conversation.

I had to leave my stylist of 15 years when moving to KC. Kristi was the best decision ever! She's warm, personable, knows what I want, and takes pride in her work. She is such a talented colorist and stylist. I have received numerous compliments on how natural my highlights look. Always an exceptional experience.

I've been going to Rio Salon for about a year, and I couldn't be happier. Kristi B. is the absolute best. She listens to what I want, style-wise, and gives me great advice. I always walk out of the salon in the best mood and feeling good about the experience. Kristi is so much fun, such a positive person, and a true professional. I highly recommend her!

Great cuts, reasonable prices, and professional service. It's a drive for me to get there, but since Salon 152 totally messed up my hair (and charged me $40 to destroy it), I'm going back to Rio.

I have been going to RIO for years. Katie M. is wonderful. I enjoy and appreciate the attention she gives me. She takes her time providing consultation and I can't say enough about her shampoo and massage. The stylists get frequent training to stay abreast of the latest techniques. The products used at Rio are always the highest in quality. I'll book my appointments for the next six months on Saturday.
