I hate to have to write this, but after calling three times and leaving a voicemail in hopes of speaking with someone about my experience at the salon last week, I’m disappointed that I still haven’t received a response. I had a haircut here last year that I absolutely loved, so when I learned that my previous…

i would love to give a 5 star review but that wouldn’t be honest. i really love my hair but my stylist burnt the side of my head 5 times with the flat iron. i definitely should’ve spoken up. but i now have a scab on my temple. doesn’t hurt or anything but just worth mentioning. other than than, great experience! i would definitely go back.

Linnea did an amazing job on my hair. I came in hoping she could try to fix a bad haircut I received at a different salon. She made it look better than I could have hoped for and truly took the time to fix my hair and still give me the perfect cut. I was truly happy with the whole experience! Thank you Linnea!

Chelsea has been my stylist for years now, and this was after several years of looking for someone who would hear me and see what I see regarding some aspects of how my hair is. 2026 is my year of Embrace, and Chelsea joined me in that today, creating a fresh new look that I’m thrilled with! Before and after pics included!

Cindy is my stylist at Ginger Salon & she does such an amazing job every time! I have been going to her for over two years now and my hair has never looked better, I have been getting more compliments than I ever have! The salon is very clean and happens to be on the cutest little street in Excelsior with lots of great shops and dining as well!

Chelsea D. does a tremendous job, both with my shorter men’s haircut and making the styling experience incredibly comfortable! It’s always like catching up with an old friend when I see Chelsea 😁 She also never forgets to take care of my normally bushy eyebrows!

I visited Ginger Salon after it was recommended to me by a family member. I worked with Chelsea, and she did a phenomenal job! She gave me exactly the cut I wanted and was just a lovely person to talk to during the process! The salon has a beautiful, chic atmosphere. I will definitely be returning for all my future cuts. Definitely recommend!!

As a brunette who is gradually transitioning to gray, I wanted to find a way to embrace my natural color gracefully rather than just stop coloring all together. Sarah has been instrumental in my journey to do that. Sarah has done an excellent job of selecting a color for my roots and highlights that blends…

My haircut, done by Chelsea D., was amazing 🤩. I’m running out of hair to cut every year but somehow she makes me look like a million bucks every time I visit. Great styling, and with wonderful conversation as well!

I had to find a new salon for a cut and highlight after seeing the same hairdresser for 37 years! Needless to say I was a bit anxious.

Bailee P does phenomenal work. I’ve been going to her for a few years now- she is consistent in her results and is spot on with what I want. I commute to her from WI so I come a few times a year- and she always gives me a look that will blend/grow out nicely. 100% recommend.

Haley is absolutely amazing!! I came in today with lots of outgrowth and a strange blonde/brown color due to faded previous color and she completely transformed me!!! She took me from that to a gorgeous dark red look that I can’t stop looking at. She’s super sweet and I’m 10000000% coming back to her in the future!
