Best Beauty Salons In Albany

“Mimi is hands down the best at what she does! By far the best wax & lash lift I've ever had!“

“Start from the top. My stylist was Ashley. Appointments are made online. So for this review, I just need to say that telephoning and make an appointment for older folks (or at least this older lady) is easier or at least what we I am used to. So it wasn't ideal but I'm getting that perm! Arrived at the salon, it's in a really nice quiet spot, which is a preference for me. I waited only a few minutes before Ashley came out and got me. And then there was an interesting kind of walk-through maze to get where we needed to go. We were the only ones there in the back for a few minutes until another lady showed up who was a stylist. It was just very quiet and not very busy. It looked to me like maybe just a slow day. Ashley was very nice. She asked me what kind of perm I was looking for and I hadn't had a perm since I was a kid so about 30 years ago and we figured it out. Then she took me to the bowl, washed my hair and took me back and rolled me up. When it was all over and done with (less than half an hour) I was very pleasantly surprised. Now this was my first perm like I said in 30 years, and I had a couple spots that if I really wanted to take the time and go back and have her correct a couple places I could've done that but I think overall I chose not to do that for two reasons. First I wanted to take my time with this new opportunity and work with my hair that is normally very straight for the most part with a permanent and second I really feel like I could live with it. I had a straight area in the front and the back was definitely not, as curled as I was wanting. Now the kicker. I absolutely am going back to get another perm. I love my hair. It's super fun. I can blow it out straight and it has lots of body that it didn't used to have and I really love the it! It's fun like I said, and it's definitely something that I want to keep. I don't think I'll go back to straight hair again. It has been the end of May that I got my perm and there's still plenty of life in it. I will probably go back in the next couple of months for another perm. My hair wasn't damaged and it wasn't frizzy and it was overall a really great experience. The reason why I gave four out of five stars is that the salon was a little dusty, there wasn't much product to look at for someone like myself who has not been in the hairstylist game for a long time and I was looking for more support from the staff. I felt like they should've/could've been more proactive in that area instead of me needing to ask questions and then I kind of felt dumb so I just stopped where I was and I didn't ask any more questions about product or anything else like that. With all of the above mentioned in mind, I absolutely would suggest locks and lashes and like I said I'll be returning.“

“DaraLyn is soooooo talented! I’m so happy that I found her! I’ve seen a lot of hair stylists in my day and can tell the difference between great and mediocre haircuts. She definitely does a great job! She is also so sweet and fun to talk to. Plus, her location and openings are super convenient for me. It’s not often that I find a hair stylist who has open weekend hours, which works best for me. I’ve never spent so much on a haircut before (plus wash and style), but to me, it’s worth it. She runs occasional promotions and discounts on her services, which is really nice. She also offers makeup services. I can’t wait to get my hair colored by her someday :)“

“I don’t know where to begin with this review without making it super long. This was my first experience at this salon. Recommended to me by a friend. When I first arrived the hours posted said 10AM however I did find out that each service provider will go in at their own times as they are independent. So the receptionist is not there until 10AM. But you will be able to walk in.

I was greeted by a kind woman in the nail station. And she asked who I was seeing. I decided to try the body polish with Katelyn Pittman. I waited a few minutes and she came up the stairs and introduced herself and shook my hand. She was informative and explained the entire service what products she would be using and benefits.
She took her time on each section of my body and even did my feet! There is a shower after the salt scrub. And then she went back over my body again with an oil that made me smell amazing. I felt like I had four massages.

Next, I met Mary Kate for two waxes. She was incredible and friendly. We chatted the entire time like she wasn’t even waxing me. I felt so comfortable. Her energy is unmatched,( not that fake feel) she gave me some great information about how to care for my skin better. It was the perfect service.

I would highly recommend both of these ladies after this experience today. I will be back again. They both take their time, know when to engage with clients and when not too. I can tell they both care about making it a perfect relaxing experience. I feel they went above and beyond. Thank you!“

“I saw Paula for a haircut and color. She was awesome. Talked about what I wanted and how we could best do it. She was funny and kind and I have a new hairdresser. I love my hair the color is great. I’m sending my adult daughter to see her to get a wonderful hair experience. Thanks Paula.“

“I have been my acrilic nails with Lauren G. pre endless beauty in Albany Oregon. I enjoy the environment and friendship that has developed because of the management team and Lauren.
The shop is clean and comfortable with plants and open spaces that allow conversations with either customers or staff without being intrusive. Every customer and staff are greeted as they enter the door. I enjoy seeing people of all ages and genders get the service they are happy with. Great job folks you are my choice for first place.❤️❤️❤️“

“I had an appointment with Rylee and she was awesome! Super happy with my hair. She listened to what I wanted and also gave her professional input/advice. After so many terrible cuts, I am so happy to have found someone. She also fit me in so quickly, I appreciated that. Highly recommend.“

“Yes, book her! Katlin did hair and makeup for myself and my bridal party on the coast. She was professional, efficient, and laid back. She gave us honest input and used creativity to make everyone look and feel beautiful and empowered. She truly is an artist. I can’t say enough good things. She surpassed all expectations!“

“Alyssa was Amazing! She was so nice and knowledgeable and did an amazing job :) I love the cut she gave me and how healthy my hair looks and feels. I have very long hair that I'm pretty attached to and she was very patient in answering all my questions and giving great suggestions while also making sure I was comfortable and getting the result I wanted. I'm always nervous getting hair cuts and she did great at giving it new life and dimention while still keeping it long for my sake. Will definitely be coming back in the future & recommending :)“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I recently visited MesmerEyes Beauty boutique while in town from Arizona, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience! I stopped by to get a permanent bracelet, and the gold one I chose is super lightweight and beautifully crafted. I barely notice it’s there, yet it adds such an elegant touch to my look. Chelsea was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, making the whole process seamless and enjoyable. If you’re looking for top-quality permanent jewelry, especially gold bracelets, MesmerEyes is the place to go. Highly recommended!“
