Reviews of Gem Salon

Kailee Carlson

Really enjoyed my first experience here for a haircut with Christopher! He was very knowledgeable in hair and it turned out great. He also made me a wonderful cup of coffee :) Loved the products they used as well. Bright space with big windows and lots of plants. Online booking was easy and there were plenty of appt times to choose from. I’ll be back!

Jessica Weaver

I used Gem Salon for my wedding and Molly did an amazing job!! The staff at Gem Salon is kind and welcoming and helped make the process super easy. Molly listened to what I was looking for, did a trial, and executed it to perfection on the day of! She also did several of bridesmaids hair and they looked amazing! She was timely, organized and made sure we were all ready to go in time for pictures. I would 10/10 recommend Molly for wedding hair and styling services!

Quin Nelson

I have really enjoyed my visits to Gem. All of the staff are very kind and super attentive. I see Christopher for my hair, and he is really knowledgeable and attentive to my hair type (I have naturally thick, wavy, loose curly hair). I appreciate this a TON, because in the past stylists will ruin the texture of my hair in the drying process by blowing it straight, or cut my hair in a way that looks odd for my wild, curly texture. My hair looks great walking out the door rather than me having to wash my hair the same night just to reset my hair texture back to normal! I would really recommend Gen overall—the salon itself has a good energy to it with natural lighting and an open floor plan. The massage chairs are a nice touch too 😌 I plan to return again in the near future!

Candi Hurlbert

I love my new Color! Christopher really took the time to listen and look at pictures to make sure my hair turned out exactly the way I wanted. This salon has a welcoming and relaxed vibe. Everyone was friendly. Plenty of parking across the street. I highly recommend. 😊 …

Madeline Buck

I came in and saw Jamie for a hair + eyebrow color & I *Love* how they both turned out! The color is perfect, and my experience throughout was very enjoyable. The stylists are patient, thorough, and very friendly. I love the salon space as well- open with lots of space and overall very cozy. I will definitely come back for my colorings, as well as my hair cuts! 😊 I will definitely recommend coming to Gem Salon to anyone looking for a salon to call theirs. Thank y'all so much! <3

Sheila Oberaigner

I highly recommend Jamie!!! Jamie colored plus added highlights to my hair today and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the end result. She got rid of my brassy tones and made my hair shine shine shine. I love the fresh look. Her salon team assisted to help me get out on time and through this process she kept my hair goals in the conversation. Fantastic service and quality.

Ella Anderson

Kat did such a great job with my hair! I came in and showed some inspiration pictures and she nailed it. She took a perfect amount of weight off my hair and did great layers and bangs to suit my natural hair. She even showed me how to style my natural hair at home so it didn’t look poofy and frizzy. I really loved my experience.

Bella Bee

Rei, my stylist, is the best. Always makes me feel great and keeps me looking great too. Always love when I can get into their chair! Plus gem salon is super cute, offers great hospitality, and the energy is great.

Frances Smith

I love my hair coloring and always am so pleased with Rei's work! Their level of attention to detail leads to a natural look, beautifully blending several shades. The end result is vibrant with a seamless grow out process, which i appreciate as someone who takes a more low-maintenance approach to my hair and upkeep. Rei is such a pleasure to chat with and made it an enjoyable self-care day. Great overall experience!

Linda Schumacher

Elizabeth is an incredible stylist with creative vision and the skills to make them come to life. She’s also warm, welcoming and fun. And Gem Salon is a beautiful space with a great vibe. Highly recommended.

Jack DeMaio

Sophia. Is. AMAZING! My fiancé Angela wasn’t having the best day and after leaving the salon with Sophia, she came out glowing! Sophia really lifted her spirit and helped her feel refreshed and confident. 10/10, you need to book Sophia!

Lisa Schaefer

Molly is stuck with me for life, as there is no one else I trust to cut my curly hair. She has been my go-to hairdresser for for at least 15 years now, longer than I have been married! I appreciate that Molly can cut my curly hair both dry and wet, and that she is always continuing her own education as well.

Michael S

Rei is delightful! Detailed, thoughtful, and a joy to talk to. Also an incredible and inspiring aesthetic. I look forward to every appointment with them and recommend them to friends that ask who does my hair! ❤️

Sarina

ciara SAVED my hair. i’ve never had someone understand curly hair as much as she does. i told her i wanted volume and shape. she did exactly that but even better. without showing her any photos!! i cannot recommended her enough. i now constantly get compliments on my hair and have the confidence to wear my hair down!

Chey J

Liz made me feel comfortable and relaxed. She included me on her thought process and enabled me to express myself. Felt like she was truly reacting to my hair and texture . I will absolutely go back to Liz

Maddy Newman

This was my first visit to Gem, it is absolutely stunning! I had a vision of what my hair would look like coming out and Rei exceeded my expectations. They are so personable and a natural at what they do. I will definitely continue to book at Gem and request Rei every time!

Samantha Cunningham

Ciara is a hair genius!!! She’s always so kind and fun to be around during any service at Gem. She provides very thorough insight to any questions or concerns during every service and has great recommendations for after care. Thank you Ciara!

Leah Castle

Took the time to understand what I wanted, checking in along the way of the cut. Fixed my problem areas and restored my faith in hairdressing! Greatly appreciated the extra time spent to make sure it was right for me.

Katie Callander

Jamie gave me a great hair color! I was impressed by her and the entire team at Gem. Thanks!

Aaliyah Kilgore

I think this is going to be a fun little before vs during vs after review, because I haven’t even officially worked with Liz yet. I had a consult today to go over primary concerns with my hair and she truly made me feel so validated and okay with where I was at in my hair journey, and really does seem to care about producing results that are long-lasting. She made me feel so comfortable and she’s trustworthy. I’m beyond excited to work with her in a few weeks and am overly confident that I will be providing reviews time and time again.

Jisela C

Liz was great with her knowledge of cutting techniques and was very nice but I left with shorter hair than I wanted. Even though we spoke about how my curls are, how I normally wear/style my hair and discussed my desired length before the cut. Had it styled straight/wavy by her at the salon so I’m not excited to see how much shorter it is when it’s washed and naturally curly again. Other than that the salon itself seemed to have a nice vibe overrall.

Ann Purcell

Gem has a very chill vibe and is nicely spaced out. They only use top notch products and my hair always feels so good after I leave. Kelly is amazing, her talent is truly unmatched. She is so passionate and educated at her craft. She explains things to me and educates me in a way that makes me feel empowered. I can’t say enough good things about her.

Juliet Parisi

Wonderful experience today with Rei!!! I love my cut and color. Rei totally knows what they are doing when it comes to fun & funky hair. I also had the pleasure of seeing them interact with a 90 year old client and they were so sweet with him. The atmosphere was calm, full of natural light, life plants, and welcoming. All of the staff were friendly and caring to the clients and to each other. I can't say enough good things about Gem! This is completely my new salon.

Kimberly Zerwas

My hair stylist Christopher did a fantastic job on my hair. He did a hair cut, highlights and style. I recommend Christopher to my family and friends. And Christopher is a really good of mine. Thank you Christopher, Kim B.

Sara Klee

Christopher was fantastic. I really wanted a change, but didn’t know which way to go, and Christopher made great recommendations. I love my new hair!

Emily Wild

I would absolute recommend going to Gem Salon for any hair cut or coloring service. The staff is very welcoming, kind and down to earth. Ciara pampered me and made me feel absolutely fantastic; she gave me exactly what I was looking for.

Bobbi Koch

Awesome artists! Very attentive and cared about my concerns. Meticulous! Found my stylist from here on out. Thank you Stephen and Gem for the amazing experience!!! 🤩 …

Sarah Banuelos

Rei is a color genius and can bring whatever edgy style I have in my head come to life. They always leave me looking fantastic and feeling fantastic. I adore them and look forward to next time. Also, I love the new space! I'm so glad y'all are in Northeast now! It's nice to finally have a stellar salon so close to home. 😘

Willow Muscovitz

Kelly did a great job with my hair. She really made an effort to walk me through what she was doing and to make me feel comfortable and assured that I was in good hands. She is attentive and cares a lot about what she does. She took my funky, mixed up fashion colors and turned them into even, natural tones. I'd highly recommend her services to anyone. Not to mention that Gem Salon+Spa is a beautiful place with lovely greenery and a clean and chic aesthetic. Overall, i had a very fun and unique experience!

Helen dos Santos

Christopher did a great job with an awkward phase my hair was in. He cut and styled to reveal lovely curls that had been hidden. Thank you!

Celia Magistad

Such a gorgeous, clean salon! The receptionist was very warm and welcoming. I see Tia for my hair. I’ve been seeing her for years and even followed her to Gem from her last salon. She is GREAT at what she does! She’s fun, professional, knowledgeable, and does exactly what I ask for while at the same time exceeding my expectations. If you need a new stylist, Tia is your girl!

Lauren Offner

Liz was so knowledgeable and knew exactly what I was asking for and was more than happy to give me what I wanted. I had been to other salons and they were too conservative with my request. She was thorough with explaining how she was going to cut my hair to get the style I was aiming for. She also had amazing patience as I had to sit on the phone for a bit because my boss was calling me about an emergency at my job. Favorite thing: the incredible scalp and head massage I got with my conditioning treatment. It helped ease my stress about work and enjoy pampering myself. Go see Liz!

Else Henry

I was visiting from out of town and needed a color appointment. A friend suggested Gem and I booked an appointment with Ciara. From the minute I sat down, it felt like Ciara had been coloring my hair for years. She made some suggestions on adjusting the tone of my highlights and then worked her magic. I could not be happier with my color and am amazed that she intuitively understood my hair and what I wanted without seeing me before. I also felt very well taken care of and she gave me a lot of good, and new, information about how to care for my hair. I had such a good experience with her that I made an appointment for my sister to get a haircut the following week and can say her cuts are equally as good. Again, the care and attention she gave was fantastic. Even though I live out of town, I am planning a return visit for a cut and color, the next time I am here. Thank you Ciara and thank you Gem!

Shay

They were super friendly and fun to talk with. They did amazing on my hair, exactly what I asked! :)

Anastasia Carr

Liz is both knowledgeable and creative when it comes to hair. She is passionate about bringing the latest trends and techniques to the Midwest. I am so happy with my new haircut and can’t wait for my next appointment.

Jeanette Beger

Elizabeth as incredible instinct and skill. She sees what is possible and uses a variety of modes to get to the final piece of art! I always feel better about my appearance after a haircut with Elizabeth.

Abigail Alves

I am SUPER particular when it comes to my hair and have had the hardest time finding a stylist since moving to MN (originally from NC, been here just shy of 5 years). With that said, Tia is LEGIT the only stylist I have seen since my OG stylist in NC that can execute what I want on my head of hair - thicker/courser hair, naturally dark brown. She's made my blonding experience SO amazing all while keeping the integrity of my locks...12 out of 10 recommend them! Thanks again Tia!

Alison Hope

Liz was really friendly and told me what she was doing and using in my hair, as well as the benefits. She gave me a great haircut too!

Courtney Herber

I had SUCH a great experience with Rei! They took the time to really understand what I wanted to do with my hair and they made it REAL. I walked away feeling like a superhero and just having had such a great time with them and getting a beautiful cut and color. We did a drastic change to my hair (exactly like I wanted) and Rei was super attentive, friendly, and fun. They're super knowledgeable and work MAGIC.

Kylee Evans

Whitney and Kelly were amazing! They were both personable and enthusiastic about meeting my hair goals. I felt like I could trust them with my hair and the color and cut came out wonderful! I am definitely coming back to Whitney, Kelly and the Gem Salon in the future.

Alexandra Klarich

Ciara was great! She listened to what I wanted and then offered suggestions for how to achieve the best results.

Logan Cates

Kelly S has been doing my hair for years, but this was my first time seeing her at Gem. It was a great experience!! Kelly is absolutely top tier—I trust her with my life, she’s never done me wrong. Check in was super easy, and the salon itself is adorable. It was an excellent experience!

Andi Degenhardt

Tia has been taking care of my hair for years, and I’d follow her anywhere - literally - I drive from Madison, WI! This was my first time at Gem with her, and all the new products she used were magical! -And it truly is a little gem! It is super spacious with cool old architecture, big windows and lots of natural light and greenery everywhere! Highly recommend if you’re new to the area or looking to switch it up

Terri McGuire-Downs

I love getting my Mani/Pedi's from Markus. He's been taking care of my nails now for about a year. I especially love the 'bling' he put on my nails recently! Just in time for the Holidays!

Lyn H Wayne

I only have great things to say about Rei. I have been looking for someone who understands non-binary clients, and I FINALLY found someone. Rei is also fabulous at making my hair look good. Plus they are funny, kind, and thoughtful. I really have had a positive experience! I am very thankful for Gem & Rei.

Gwen Bailey

ciara was such a sweet person and really knew what she was doing, i came in with a vague idea, showed her some pictures, and she totally nailed what i was going for

Ruth Bailey

The salon is beautiful and the staff was awesome. I loved that Elizabeth took the time to listen and ask questions to make sure she knew exactly what I was wanting. I had a great experience and am looking forward to my next appointment to keep working on my long-term hair goals!

Steph June

New to the area, found Ciara on instagram and she made me feel beautiful. One of the best hair experiences I have ever had :)

Kimberly Martin

Elizabeth was amazing to work with! She was incredibly kind and listened to what I wanted, providing suggestions when necessary. She kept me informed throughout the whole process, explaining every step. She was knowledgable about the products in the salon and recommended some great products from me. I left loving my new hair and feeling really great about my experience there.

Emily Ellingson

I had a first visit at Gem salon! Everyone is friendly and accommodating; I was called earlier in the day to be told they had openings sooner if I was ready to go, and they got me in about a half hour before my original appointment. Kelly is fantastic! Not only is she experienced and talented, but she is so fun to talk to and puts you at ease. I highly recommend her for any haircut - she gave me great long layers and truly gave me the cut I didn’t even know how to describe but wanted. Go see Kelly and the team at Gem!

Natalie Gonzalez

Wonderful experience all around. Loved my haircut and it was very easy to communicate what I was looking for. Will come back again for sure.

Patricia Meyer

Loved the color that Whitney did on my hair and the cut was also really good. She took time to question what I wanted and explained everything that she was doing. I loved that it wasn't so rushed and she really did a beautiful job. I will be back !!!

Emma Heckel

Usually after any hair appointment I leave feeling indifferent about it, like I wasn't able to put what I wanted into words. But after my first appointment at Gem with Richard, I left feeling so excited about my hair transformation! He was able to give me exactly the cut I wanted, and I feel like a brand new person! Richard and the other staff at Gem were super personable and made me feel right at home. I'll definitely be coming back. :)

katie

Elizabeth is amazing! I’ll never go to another another stylist again. She took so much effort and care into making sure I loved my hair. She listened to all my concerns and made sure I was heard. She was so patient, didn’t rush, and gave me exactly what I wanted. I couldn’t recommend her more! First time a stylist has truly listened and given me what I asked for. Can’t give this place enough praise!

sydney domke

Christopher was great! So kind and understood exactly what I wanted. He did a fabulous job!!

Marissa Chow

I came with long, damaged hair and asked Kelly’s opinion on what would work best for my face shape. She was so knowledgeable and knew exactly what I was envisioning! My hair feels so healthy and fresh and I am so in love with my new look! Would recommend Kelly to all my friends!

Amelia Boulware

Elizabeth gave me the best cut I’ve ever had. Really skilled stylist AND the nicest, most genuine person. (Also received great service at the counter, and everyone was careful about COVID precautions.) Feel super lucky to have found her. I’ve been to a number of salons over the years, and my fine, poker-straight, salt-and-pepper hair has never looked better. Thank you! (I’ve never written a review before but Gem Salon deserves a shout-out.)

Taylor Mueller

Elizabeth is the best!! I trust her with my hair completely, and I’m always amazed at how well she does. I have changed my hair up a lot with her and it’s always worth it when I see the end results. This salon is also super cute and I’ve always felt welcomed there.

Dawn Fifer

Elizabeth is phenomenal!!! I have some nasty issues with my hair and needed someone with expertise and patience. And that someone is Elizabeth. She gave me the most thorough consultation I've ever had in my life. I am beyond excited to go on a hair journey with her! Gem will be my new go-to salon for years to come.

Nazifa Wazirzada

Jessica is such a good stylist and hairdresser! She checked in with me every step of the way from the shampoo all the way through the cut and styling as well. She cut my hair so well, and was so attentive to Molly’s direction and advice. Best haircut ever! It’s so different to what I normally get but felt so comfortable in that chair knowing I was in good hands. I’ll be back! :)

Mariangela Ferrara

Elizabeth’s color service exceeded my expectations! She did a super job choosing just the right product and applying it to cover grey roots and blend with faded brash highlights. I am so impressed with Elizabeth’s talent and my hair’s chocolate and subtle red tones. Really beautiful.. Thank you Elizabeth.

Ciara Wanta

Is there a rating above 5? She’s amazing! Always listens and gives great style suggestions. Thank you Liz!

Holly Chappel

Elizabeth is a wonderful hair stylist! She has been doing my hair for over ten years now and I completely trust her with whatever decisions she chooses to do with my hair. She knows my style and my hair always looks great after she is done!

Amy Boes

I couldn't be happier with my experiences at Gem Salon + Spa. The Salon is stunning and has such cutting-edge appeal! You always get treated so well from the moment you step in. Their stylists and technicians are top of the line, professional, knowledgable, and experienced. I see Markus often for my nails as well as massage - he's incredibly talented. I've gone to Natalie for my hair and she did an awesome job! Also, love the owner Molly! They are all great, no matter who you book with - you won't be disappointed. Highly recommended!

Ellie Herman

Kelly Rose was great with my heavy, long curly hair, and knew exactly how to cut off 3-4 inches without causing the dreaded "pyramid" shape. Super skilled, talented, and friendly! I live out of state but will definitely be back next time I'm in town. The salon's COVID safety protocols were very comforting as well!

Shaya Miller

I see Naomi and she is a goddess with color and balayage. I have never had better hair in my life. She is always willing to listen, asks great questions to really understand what I'm looking for, and makes wonderful suggestions. I always have a great experience at the salon, it's comfortable and modern. The front desk staff is kind and patient. The scheduling system is great - I love getting texts and reminders. I enjoy it so much that I started scheduling my husband to come as well and he loves it too!

Dawn Fifer

All I can say is PHENOMENAL!!! 😍 Elizabeth once again went above and beyond for me. We've been working through a complicated bleach/tone/color correction process and my current results are stellar. This is the best my hair has looked in YEARS. She's been kind, patient, and extra communicative through this process and I can't thank her enough. Every member of staff is friendly and professional as well. I can't wait for my next appointment!

Paige McDaniel

This was my first time at Gem Salon and it did not disappoint. Everyone was so nice and welcoming. Alyssa did such a great job on my hair. I went in for a root retouch and gloss. She went above and beyond. In addition, Alyssa is super easy to talk to and made me feel comfortable right away. I already booked my next appointment for a haircut! Can’t wait 😊

Amy Milligan

I needed a haircut terribly, and on a whim decided to schedule an appointment online with Gem. It was my first time at this salon, I had at great experience! From the second I walked in the door I felt so welcomed and comfortable! Tilly did a great job on my hair, and even recommended some products to get my hair ready for my wedding next fall! The receptionist was amazing as well! Highly recommend Gem Salon + Spa!

Joe Bower

Gem salon can deliver a great men’s haircut. Elizabeth did an outstanding job. It’s the best haircut I can remember in years. She listens and interprets very well. I didn’t want the stock men’s haircut; she gave my hair just the right amount of zing. I strongly recommend her. To boot, Gem is taking the right steps to maintain a healthy environment; temperature taking, sanitizing, masks work by all. A+ experience all around.

Jacqueline Cooper

I am so happy with Elizabeth and Gem Salon! The atmosphere is awesome and Elizabeth gave me the best haircut I’ve had in years. She is also fun and professional at the same time. Looking forward to going back!

Chelsea Hernandez

I went to Gem for the first time yesterday and really enjoyed it. The staff at the front desk were really friendly and the salon was airy and clean. I saw Alyssa for a haircut and she did a great job! It was exactly what I asked for and I like the way she styled it. I will definitely be back! Bonus: I appreciate the precautions the took for COVID-19. I also love that they’re a Green Circle Salon!

Samantha Monjeau

This was the first time Naomi did my hair and the first time I have been to Gem Salon. I showed her pictures of what I wanted and liked, I couldn't not have loved it more. I was so happy with it. Naomi and her co workers were so friendly, fun, and welcoming from the moment I walked in until I left. I felt like we have known each other forever. I have never had a hair stylist who chatted with me the whole appointment, instead of looking at myself in a mirror for hours. I had so much fun and just love my color/cut and updo for my wedding. Thank you so much Naomi. I seriously can't get over how much I love my hair and I will definitely be coming back.

Katelyn Gamble

Today was my first visit to Gem but it definitely won’t be my last. Going to a new salon can be very intimidating but from the second I walked in I felt welcomed. The front desk (so sorry I didn’t get her name!) was so friendly and Alyssa was so nice and made me feel like I had been going there for years. My hair turned out fantastic and I’ll be recommending them to everyone! ☺️

Jared & Ashley Mitchell

I've LOVED every experience with Tia. She is an excellent stylist and great company. I have a hard time trusting people to cut my hair, especially my bangs, and Tia always listens carefully and amazes me.

Julia Fair

Richard was so amazing and definitely the most meticulous stylist I’ve ever been to and I will definitely be going back. With regard to covid protocols, Gem was excellent and thorough. I feel gorgeous and am so grateful! Richard was also so much fun to talk with!

Elspeth Stewart

Kelly did an amazing job cutting and styling my wavy/curly hair. She knew exactly what my hair needed to be more voluminous and emphasize the curls. Great experience. Will be returning! Thank you, Gem!

HOLLY NICOLET

This was my first time visiting the salon and Alyssa was my stylist. Immediately walking in I saw they had my favorite products along a sale of other products. The girl at the front helped recommend some great products and answer my questions. Alyssa did an awesome job cutting and styling my hair and helped me finalize what products would work best with my hair type and the type of product I was looking for. I definitely found my new neighborhood salon and will he back in a few weeks for a color touch up!

Madeline Rivard

I am hesitant to go anywhere I don’t absolutely need to these days but I am SO GLAD I went to Gem! Not only did I get a fabulous hair cut and everything I want from a salon experience, I felt SO SAFE! The Gem team is doing an amazing job taking every precaution possible and utilizing they’re beautiful and large space for social distancing; - Online booking was simple - My temperature was taken at the door - I was never close to another customer - The salon is spotless, you can absolutely tell they are keeping up with deep cleaning - Staff was cleaning frequently while I was there Gem is doing anything and everything that can be done to serve their customers safely. THANK YOU, GEM! 🙌🏻👏🏻

Chelsea Garcia

I absolutely adore Claire! She is incredibly talented and has given my hair new life. I have wavy, frizzy hair that can be challenging to work with even when I style it straight. Her dry hair cutting technique gives me the best cut and style for my hair. I also always go to her for a balayage color and I consistently get a ton of compliments. Gem Salon + Spa is gorgeous and feels modern and serene. I highly recommend!!

ELSE HENRY

Ciara is fantastic. Absolutely love her skill and creativity. On top of her technical skill she has a good sense of what her clients are looking for and can make it happen. I will be back!

Lauren Hoen

To start, everyone at Gem Salon was so friendly. It made my experience so much better to walk in and see friendly faces. On top of that, Amber was an amazing stylist. I hadn't had a haircut for a while and she instantly made me feel comfortable and knew exactly what I was looking for. She executed it beautifully and the compliments on my new hairdo haven't stopped. I cannot wait to visit Amber again!

Heather Svenson

Tia is always amazing! Love the way she cuts and colors my hair every single time! Always so sweet and easy to talk to. The salon is so open and inviting!

Megan Conrad

Elizabeth is the best! She is welcoming, fun, real, and truly understands how to cut curly hair. I always enjoy my time and the end results of my cut & style. Gem has done a great job of making a safe but still enjoyable experience in the time of COVID. I appreciated receiving an email ahead of my appointment explaining all their new practices and requests from the customer as well. They made sure to put good processes in place prior to reopening and it shows.

Nicolle Goodman

Tia is amazing! I am a blonde who is starting to turn gray and I don’t want to hide it, I just want it to look great as it comes in. She is an expert at gray blending and it looks great every time, even between appointment. Definitely recommend!

Marissa Johnson

I recently went to the salon to get my hair lighter for the first time ever. I was nervous but they made me feel so comfortable and confident. Molly did my hair and she was incredibly nice and friendly and she did an amazing job. When I went home and realized I would like a few more highlights but didn’t speak up during my appointment they were very friendly/professional and helped me make another appointment as soon as possible. I will be coming back.

Jessica Marshall-Kurysh

Owner/stylist is phenomenal! Color choices are always fun and spot on with my skin tone. Hair washing is prob my fave - perfect temp, pressure, and the products smell great. Other services there are really good too. Mani/pedis are the best I’ve ever had. Feel like a lot of positive reviews say these types of things but to put it into perspective - when I moved away I kept two things from home - my doctor and my hair stylist. Can’t say enough great things - great people, amazing services, good vibes!

Danielle Hoemke

Naomi has been cutting and coloring my hair every 3-4 months for almost 3 years now and I have never once left her chair disappointed. I come in with vague (probably annoying) requests such as "I want to keep some length but I feel like I need a good chop", and she nails it every time. I'm even more clueless when it comes to color, so I love that I trust her to just work her magic. She has a true talent and to top it off, she's a great human. 11/10 recommend.

Asma Chhipa

Love this salon so much! I am a very chatty person, and all my stylists have been so fun to talk to. They’ve done amazing jobs each time, and are very clean and professional. The salon is beautiful, and during covid they take temps and distance from other customers. I highly recommend to anyone on the fence about a salon in the twin cities, I love this place!!

Liz DeHaven

I am so impressed with the sustainability initiatives that this salon has taken. From the products they carry using innovative packaging to the ways they repurpose and recycle everything in their loop, they show how much they value the earth and our future. Thank you Gem for leading the way in Saint Paul. You have a patron for life! Oh, and great haircut from Kelly 😋 The first-time thank you gift is a classy touch too.

Lindsey York

Claire at Gem Salon has been my stylist for years. She is great with long hair and natural coloring. I love when my stylist really gets to know me . All I have to do is sit down in Claire's chair and she instantly has amazing ideas on how to improve my hair style or color. She is the best!

Jessica Flint

I have been going to Naomi for all my hair needs for about 3 years now! From cut to color she never disappoints! Could not have been any more happy with the way my hair turned out this time! You will NEVER be disappointed with trusting Naomi with your hair! The salon was clean and very relaxing! All of the staff were polite and available to ensure your time was nothing short of comfortable!

Sara Nace

Natalie is simply the very best! She goes above and beyond for clients, is knowledgeable, tasteful, and a lovely person to boot. (Not to mention, she saved my naturally curly hair from a very sad, botched haircut when I was 8 months pregnant and desperate.) She is excellent with color. As Joan Crawford once said: “the most important thing a woman can have- next to talent, of course- is her hairdresser.” I’ve got mine!

Vicky Fleming

I was so happy to get my hair cut and my gray roots colored. Molly is wonderful as always, so skillful and thorough. The salon staff is very welcoming and the salon is very very clean! They have done an excellent job at taking precautions as they welcome clients back.

Maureen Lunzer Quist

Natalie was a delight! It was my first visit to Gem and appointment with Natalie. Natalie talked to me about my hair, my current and previous styles and what I was looking for with a haircut. She explained what she was doing and gave great product recommendations for my curly hair. I love how my hair looks and feels. Thanks, Natalie!

Sara Wilson

Gem Spa generally and Bridget specially have given such time and thought as to how to reopen. It necessarily felt different to keep everyone safe but the underlying graciousness and welcome remain. I’m grateful to everyone for the hard work put into bringing clients back in safely. I’ve worked with Bridget for many years and not only is she an excellent stylist, she is such a lovely person who has found a good home at Gem.

wahida

Katie was incredible & I LOVE my new hair! I don't think I would have been brave enough to do something so fun & bold with a different stylist, but Katie makes me feel excited confident when it comes to trying new things. All of the staff were friendly & welcoming and the salon itself felt warm & beautiful. Thanks so much!

Kimberly Bednar

I almost don't want to review bc I don't want her to get too busy....but she totally deserves all the accolades ! She will transform you. She is constantly working on her craft and will do what's best for your hair while achieving your hair goals !! Also, she's a big cook so we talk food the entire time...don't go hungry you will regret it !

Katharine T

Bridget always does a fantastic job and this time was no exception. She's just THE BEST! This was my first time back since the pandemic started and I felt very comfortable with the safety precautions the salon is taking to ensure a healthy environment. Thanks!

Ellen Stewart

Molly did a great job transforming my "quarantine grow out" into something that feels like me! She listened to the bits and pieces I described and gave me a big change that I love. I forgot how good it feels to get my hair cut professionally. I will quit trying to do it on my own : ) I struggled with the cost when i made the appointment, but it was worth a big splurge!

Katelyn McEnelly

Gem salon is by far one of the most comfortable salons I’ve been in. I have never left disappointed. My stylist Liz is incredible and always leaves me speechless. The new COVID19 policies also make me feel safe and valued as costumer. Great place, and great people.

Elizabeth Nielson

First off, this place is AMAZING...the aesthetic, decor, atmosphere is so welcoming and fresh. It’s open, has great lighting and I love how they have the big sofa behind the front desk to wait for your stylist after you check in! Makes you feel incredibly welcomed immediately, I surprisingly enjoyed that a lot haha! I see Naomi who is a color WIZARD. She’s so professional and talented...her highlight/balayage blends are incredible! And she’s so sweet and fun to talk to! Loved my visit and would recommend this place to everyone!

Andrea Daly

This is the first hair appt in my life where I have left feeling so thrilled about my hair outcome! Naomi was so easy to talk to and did an amazing job! Seriously not going to anyone else ever again- found my hair girl! 10/10 would recommend.

Nicole Downing

Amazing haircut by Kelly. Came in wanting a huge cut, going from lower back length hair to above my shoulders and I am so glad I got this cut here! She listened to any feedback I had and worked with me to make sure I got the perfect cut!

Lauren Degn

I came to Richard for a color correction, and he did such a wonderful job! He was able to do exactly what I wanted while still keeping a natural look. I’m so happy with the results. Looking forward to my next appointment with Richard!

Caron Handberg

Love my color!! Kelly really is excellent at gray blending. I will never go back. So happy I made the leap and will recommend her to all my friends!

Aly Ca

I’ve been seeing Molly for a couple years and always loved my experience at Gem. Even during the pandemic, the salon felt warm and welcoming, and I felt they took great care in being safe and sanitary without making the experience feel sterile. It was great to be back and as always, I love how she cut my hair.

Brooke Lee

Yesterday, I had my first visit back to Gem Salon since their re-opening from COVID restrictions. Natalie did an excellent job (per ususal), and the salon was clean and had solid C19 protocol in place. I look forward to my next appointment in 5 weeks. Welcome back, Gem Salon and THANK YOU, Natalie!

its Brittany, Bea

Very much enjoyed meting Rei. Her attention to detail and her expertise is very much appreciated. I’ll be back!

Maggie Hathaway

Had a wonderful experience at Gem Salon. Alyssa was an incredibly friendly, talented stylist who did a fantastic job with my haircut. Space was clean and welcoming, staff was enjoyable and service prompt. Will definitely be back!

Jean McGuire

Thank you Kelly for transforming my daughter's long curly hair into a short beautiful sophisticated look. We love it on her so much! The smile It brings to her face is an added addition. 😊 …

Emily Rasmussen

Olivia is the biggest sweetheart! She listened to my concerns and offered a number of great options for me to consider. Ultimately, she encouraged me to rock my “new-to-me” natural color after cutting off the last of my chemically treated hair. I am so happy with how it turned out! Always a joy to add to my day!

Arabella Jones

Best haircut I've ever had! Amber listened to what my hair need are! I felt like she really tailored a cut and products to what would be best for my hair! She also was really good about showing me what to do at home to achieve the same salon look!

Maren Zobott

I saw Elizabeth for an adjustment of a previous color I had done because I wasn’t happy with it. (She did not do the original color.) She was very knowledgeable and understanding and did a great job of correcting my color. She seemed happy to be doing it, really took her time, and was super intentional about everything she was doing. The salon receptionist I spoke to was also very accommodating when scheduling my adjustment. Great customer service!

Amy Weisenburger

I gotta lotta problems, but my hair color isn’t one of them! Thanks to the incredibly talented Molly Black and her team, I always feel good walking out of Gem Salon. Love the new space!

Shannon Killen

Olivia did such a amazing job! She definitely knows what she is doing! From every brush stroke to the after photos! It was a blast to have her as my stylist! Great atmosphere! All around just fabulous! I will definitely be back very soon! Thank you so much!

Kristi Ellison

Natalie is incredibly talented, and skilled at both cutting/coloring hair and conversation (which is necessary in a good stylist!) I always walk out looking fresh, complete with info and tips on the latest products from Kevin Murphy and Oribe. I keep coming back because my hair has never looked better!

sydney sundquist

I am SO happy with my the outcome of my hair. Naomi was not only incredibly professional, but you can tell she cares a great deal about her craft. The first time I saw her, I had booked my appointment online-I was a little uncertain about the type of service I should book based on what I wanted to accomplish. When I showed up for my appointment, Naomi consulted with me about my goals, and ultimately decided she didn’t feel comfortable with the amount or time I’d given us to accomplish what I wanted. I really respected her honesty, and obvious pride she takes in her work to not try to rush something just to get me in her chair. It was well worth the wait! She began the appointment with another consultation, and truly took the time to think through every step of her process. I should add that I have very thick, dark brown wavy/curly hair that had been color processed to a brown to blonde ombré. My blondes were yellow & straw like and my natural dark/cool brown had been toned to rusty brunette color that I was NOT feeling. I left with the richness of my natural brunette color restored & lustrous, and my blondes melted to a gorgeous beige blonde that I LOVE and was really looking for. I’m trying to grow my hair out so the necessary evil of that, is trimming the dead ends off. She trimmed my hair just enough to do so, and my ends feel thick and healthy now. She made me feel comfortable, listened to what I wanted and made it happen! I am excited to finally have a long term stylist that I plan to trust with my locks going forward! We already have my goals for the next appointment, to add in a little more blonde and a moisturizer treatment planned out! That’s how thoughtful she is with her work. I would highly recommend her to everyone!!

Leya Charles

I had a great time chatting about plants with Elizabeth. I am in awe of her stylist talent.

Renee Martinson

Love Gem! The entire staff is wonderful. Since Jo and Amber left, I recently switched over to Natalie for cut and color and couldn’t be more pleased! And treat points, legitimately awesome. So far I’ve got a free express facial, a deep conditioning treatment, and a skin care line trial kit for free!

Rachel Hopper

My new favorite salon! Ashleigh was amazing and not only squeezed me in last minute but helped explain everything to me so I understood what was happening and how to style moving forward. I love this place and Ashleigh, will be returning again and again! And Julia at the front desk was so nice and helpful!!!

Angelina Jaramillo Rangel

Christopher was super friendly, talented, and gave me the cuuuuutest bob!

Sami

I have been to Gem Salon and Spa now twice, and every time it feels caring, homey, and nonjudgemental. They take such great care of the women and men there and I would recommend it literally to ANYONE. HIGHLY recommend anyone looking for a dramatic change, a subtle bang trim, or someone who just needs pampering (especially by stylist Alyssa).

Chandler Weir

I have never experienced nothing less than the very best with Richard! My appointments with Richard at Gem Salon + Spa are both relaxing and fun, and I always walk out of Gem feeling refreshed and beautified. He works magic!!

Gem Salon and Spa is super cute! Naomi is a true professional and artist. She listens to what you want and makes it a reality. Every time I see Naomi for balayage and a cut I walk about of the salon feeling beautiful and confident. I totally recommend Naomi at Gem Salon and Spa and after your hair appointment go grab a drink or lunch at one of the amazing restaurants right next to the salon!

Nichole Johnson

Miss Natalie, you are amazing. From your bubbly attitude and ability to keep a fun conversation going; all while getting my hair to EXACTLY what I want, is beyond fabulous. Your knowledge and suggestions for hair care are what's best for ME! Everyone is different and I love that you take what I dream of and make it come to life in a beautiful, healthy manner! You are my number 1, and only person I will allow to touch my mop again! You're an angel 😇. Thank you doesn't even begin to express my gratitude for all of your fabulous work! Nichole

I treated myself to a mani and pedi for my birthday. Markus was amazing... friendly, efficient and did a wonderful job. I LOVE my nails! I'll definitely go back. Also...

Reception at the front desk is always friendly with coat check and tea and coffee available . Highly recommended

Katie can work wonders on hair! I have very thick hair that can be difficult to manage. I grew up with kinky, curly hair that is now wavy. I also have to use product to get my hair to be tame.

Christopher did a fabulous job with my haircut and color consult! I moved to the area recently and was feeling nervous about finding a new stylist. Christopher translated the photo I showed him into a cut that looks great with my face shape and hair texture. I left the salon feeling much more confident and am excited to book my color with him.
