I hardly write reviews and I do feel bad about leaving a one star review but I want to make sure no one else has a bad experience. The staff were nice and friendly but the person, Lucy, that did my hair didn’t seem like she knew what she was doing. I went in for a hair cut and it looks absolutely horrible, the layers can’t event be considered layers just chunks of hair at different lengths. My hair is ruined!My sister also went in for a cut and she didn’t know what she was doing, another stylist had to do the cut himself! I really want to thank him for stepping in, I don’t know how I would feel if she also ruined my sisters hair.I left a tip and made sure the other stylist was paid for his service. I will not be returning and will not be recommending this place nor the stylist.

Don’t get me wrong they were nice and friendly but the chick that did my hair didn’t seem like she knew what she was doing. I asked for a balayage instead got highlights that doesn’t even look good which I paid way too much. I left a tips to be nice but honestly I don’t think I would go here again. My hair is ruined!

After not having a haircut or highlights for a year, needless to say my hair was very sad. When all done, Lucy has my hair happy with joy! Highlight, fixing of my problem spot(gets very ratty along the neck/collar) it is happy, full of sunshine, bounce, and life again! Thank you Lucy for making blonde your specialty. I dont know what I would have done without you. I feel like myself again!! The salon is clean, the staff are very friendly, good attitudes, love the natural light from the big windows(could use some tinting due to sometimes reflecting off the equipment into the eyes). Prices are reasonable, hours are flexible. I will be back!!!

Awesome customer service! Great hair cuts! They offer to cover the cost of your parking up to 2 hours. With a great selection of other shops around, this location has a lot to offer. You can enjoy a nice lunch/dinner at leadbelly or dive into a love it of cold stone ice cream!

I had bleached and highlighted my hair earlier, after which my hair had become brittle and unhealthy. It was Kara who consistently worked on it and now it looks healthy with no hair loss, just like which I had naturally. Her formulas are awesome, she exactly knows which one will fit in best for your hair. She is very friendly and easy to communicate with. I love her services ❤️

I went to Krissy for my wedding makeup and hair and absolutely loved the results. Krissy made the process to easy and free of stress and I felt absolutely stunning on my big day. I will absolutely be returning to Garbos for all my hair and makeup needs in the future!

Got my haircut for the first time at this Salon and it was not what I had asked for the first time. But Darcy reached out to me and amended the issue and had a different stylist fix the mistake. Darcy was very nice and understanding and Jessica did a great job giving me exactly what I liked. Overall, first experience was not perfect but I appreciate them greatly for being so nice and willing to help me feel beautiful!

This place tries hard to be a lot more than it is. But they give a good standard basic haircut and the staff is friendly, but always trying to up sell you on product.

I had a haircut & style with Eileen, she is simply the best! I was very happy with my highlights then tried the haircut and style, was very happy with it too. Her welcoming attitude towards customers is a huge plus. If you are not happy with it, you feel comfortable telling her that and she fixes it to make sure you leave happy. I don’t think I will go to any other stylist anymore. She is an asset for Garbo’s.

I went in yesterday to get my hair done, they gave me an estimate of $156.00 online for full highlights and wax. I showed my stylist at least 5 pics of the exact same hair color and cut. I simply wanted ash blond hair cut to my shoulders. When we got done it was way darker than it was to begin with and she charged me a whopping$ 353.00 I told her it was too dark but she gave me every reason why it had tp be that way. I know better. She messed up and couldnt admit then charged me ridiculous amount of money. Ill never go back.

I have had highlights at the saloon twice and was not happy. The last time, I had Eileen fix it and that was it!!! She is the best when it comes to highlights but not only that, she is very customer oriented, smiling all the time, make you feel welcomed. I will not go to anyone else. Also the manager Audrey, she is very professional. She always fixes things in the best way to make sure clients are happy with the service they receive. I love this place!Fay

Love the cleanliness, friendliness, and accommodations at this salon but especially love Shalma! Shalma takes care of my entire families hair which is such a time saver for me but also shows her skills! I have two boys with completely different textures and styles of hair along with my husband’s tight curls and my ever changing requests. She goes above and beyond for every service. Between her professional opinion, great personality, and phenomenal skills consider us forever clients!

Samantha has been styling my hair since I moved to Omaha 2 years ago. She is fantastic! She listens, gives excellent recommendations, is super professional and is so much fun to talk to. I highly recommend Samantha and Garbos at Midtown Crossing.

Garbo’s Midtown has great services and I always enjoy my time there and leave happy!Shalma Ibarra does a fantastic job cutting and styling my hair. I don’t personally color my hair or get extensions, but I’ve seen her work with both and it’s beautiful. She’s super sweet and friendly and I would highly recommend her for any hair service! She’s the best!I also had a Reiki Energy Healing session with Jessica Wollam. This was the first time I’ve participated in this type of healing and I was very impressed! The whole experience was positive and professional. She walked me through the process before beginning and made me feel very comfortable. When the session was over I felt much lighter and more relaxed. I would highly recommend to anyone who is feeling stressed, anxious, or even just wants to treat themselves to a little extra self care. There are so many positive benefits that Jessica taught me and she is super friendly and easy to talk to. I will definitely be going back for another session in the future!

I always have an amazing experience at this salon. They are always on time for my appointments and keep the salon very clean. Eileen is my go-to stylist for my blonde highlights. She gives great professional advice to get the color that I am wanting, while also putting the health of my hair first! I leave satisfied with my look every time. If you are wanting a boost in your hair color, I highly suggest Eileen to help you get the perfect look!

Review №24

My partner and I both had color and haircuts with Kelsey in June of this year. Our experience at Garbos was excellent! The quality experience began with the appointment booking, discussion of what we were wanting and the quality of cut and color. Our stylist made contact with our home stylist in Kansas City to confirm a few items about color, which was appreciated. Both of us being salon owners in Kansas City, we have an appreciation of what it takes to meet the high standards Garbos represents! Doug and Terry

Jessica did an amazing job with my fade and haircut. You can tell she has actually worked in a barbershop and knows what she is doing. She has great stories and can hold a conversation throughout the haircut. She is knowledgeable about haircuts and knows what she is doing! I would highly recommend her!

Kasey is amazing! I had a last minute cancellation with my usual lash lady, and had important stuff coming up I wanted to look nice for. Kasey went above and beyond to accommodate me. She got me in, took her time, and did such a great job on my lashes!! I also appreciate her upbeat friendly attitude. She does hair too!!! Definitely recommend!

Thank you Dominique for a great service. The shampoo, cut and blowout was a complete sensory experience. All of the products smelled amazing, Domininque gives a really good scalp massage, and explains all of the products and techniques she used to complete the cut. She is very thorough and made sure everything was just right before I left. She wrote down all of the products she used, and educated me about the benefits each of them, plus offered some tips for styling. The salon itself is easily accessible, and aesthetically pleasing. Great experience overall!

By far one of the best experiences Ive ever had. The receptionist was so nice and attentive, the girls are so happy and kind. My hair stylist was Mary Grace and she out did herself. Super kind, super fun to talk to. She answered every single question I had, she taught me how to do my hair she recommended me the best products and most importantly my hair looked just the way I wanted. This place is amazing!

Review №37

After going a year without a hair cut, I wasnt sure where to go to be completely satisfied with the results. After looking at the Best of Omaha website, I decided to go to Garbos in Midtown since it had good ratings and was close to my home. I called over at 9 am on Saturday morning, and had my appointment at 11:30 the same day. My stylist was Nate, and he was FABULOUS. He listened to all of my ideas and wants, and made it happen. He was personable, friendly, and very professional. My hair looks and feels incredible, and I will definitely be a repeat customer at this salon.P.S. I grew up in a small town where haircuts were $10 and you went to the same person since kindergarten. The money that I paid for this haircut/style was worth every penny. The quality of the work and the products used were fantastic, and well priced for the Omaha area.

Review №38

I have extremely curly hair and went in with a friend to get her hair done. I decided to ask about getting mine done since I would be sitting there for a long time, and I needed to get it all thinned anyway so I asked them if they had anyone available who could cut a curly-haired girls hair for that time. They said that the girl who did best with curly hair was completely available! I said great and they sat me down with her, before I knew that she was cutting my dry curls, she cut about an inch and a half off. Dry. she basically cut all my length and didnt even thin it. So now I have a small fro and it will not grow back to the length that it had been for another two years. My advice to any other people with curly hair: do not come here.

UPDATE: Kristen has since brought her talents to Five Salon, which is a truly incredible salon experience!Kristen is absolutely phenomenal. She is hands - down Garbos best asset when it comes to being a premiere hair salon. She is very open and friendly and her intuition with hair is incredible. It is impossible to go to her and not walk out without being completely in love with yourself! She has such a deep knowledge on how to bring out any womans (or mans!) inner self. Ive never felt more beautiful - inside and out! - than after seeing Kristen. She truly has an incredible talent that EVERYONE should experience!

Ive been looking for Perfectly Paty my whole life!!!!! Unicorn hair is very hard to come by, and she is the real unicorn slayer....Ive never seen anyone with so much unmatched talent and creativity. Her energy is amazing, and she is super passionate about her artistry. As an artist myself, i couldnt ever go anywhere else. Ever. Five stars is minimizing her talent because she is an 11.

I would not recommend this salon for your special events, particularly wedding day. I submitted a list for my bridal party, they confirmed the reservation, but on the big day some of the bridesmaids did not show scheduled. I asked for a 10mins time adjustment since there was a flight delay on my party but instead of providing flexibility, they decided not to wash my (the bride’s hair) and proceeded with styling my hair that way. I wish we would have left the salon instead of accepting such poor customer service, but we were just shocked and stressed. Don’t add more work and stress to your big day, you’ll have plenty to worry about.

Review №48

I am very disappointed in garbos midtown management. I have been frequenting this establishment for some time. I receive the same service each visit yet the cost increases each visit, as well. When I brought this to their attention upon my last and final appointment, I was credited $20. The services had increased over $50 over several months. My concern then was what the cost would be moving forward. I asked to receive a return phone call with that information so I could determine if I would be returning. I did not get a call back and no other follow up. The reason for the increases is unclear and the unprofessional communication is unacceptable.

Nikki Daleys sublime hairstyling did it again, I received one of the best haircuts yesterday at Midtown Garbos Salon. As a guy in a car repair facility to receive compliments... that means something! The experience was professional, relaxing, and very enjoyable. Nikki is entertaining and her scalp massage alone is worth more than the valued price. I highly recommend her services.

I went here for my anniversary gift, got manicures and pedicures with my boyfriend by Kelly and another really nice lady! I also got my hair done by a girl named Kelsey. She did awesome! And we clicked! I never talk to any of the people who style my hair! I will definitely be back! Already planning on it for my uncles wedding!

Abby is awesome! Not only does she do a beautiful job on my hair, she is friendly and kind and enjoyable to chat with. Her hair is always some fun & different color, so that inspired me to finally try some pink in my blonde hair...it turned out so great & I love it! I get lots of compliments. Thanks again, Abby!

Review №52

The esthetician needs to check her work before stating “We’re done!” I question why she would ask if I wanted something on my face. Of course I do! Something to help soothe it would be great, all over the area treated.I walked down the street to my car with wax left that was left on my face. I’m still tweezing the hairs that were missed. I will not be recommending this service at this salon to anyone.

Review №54

I showed my stylist many reference pictures of the style I wanted (pixie cut in the back getting longer in the front like a bob) and she for some reason immediately shaved the back of my head (none of my reference pictures even had that) without asking.I usually part my hair to the side but made it clear I only wanted my hair cut while it was in a middle part—which she complied until she suddenly switched my part (I thought she was done) and started cutting again.I left the salon feeling angry and had three meltdowns because of the back of my head looked terrible and it was so unevenly cut in the front because of how she did the opposite of what I asked.$40 wasted, would not recommend.

I went in for a deep conditioning with Heidy a few weeks ago, and it was amazing. Not only is she the sweetest, but I left looking and feeling great about my hair. She styled it and even taught me some home care tips to make my natural frizzy, wavy hair so silky and soft.

Review №62

Kinda bummed that my first experience with this location turned out the way it did. I booked my appointment more than 24 hours in advance and let the receptionist or host know that I had extensions in my hair. I always share this in the event the stylist doesn’t have experience or doesn’t feel comfortable styling extensions which is totally understandable. The stylist I see at the Oakview location is great! However, my appointment was booked and I was told that that was just fine. Upon arrival this afternoon I was checked in, sat down and then called up about five minutes later to be informed that the stylist was not able to style me today. This is very disappointing news as I booked this appointment over my lunch hour and have a flight for a pageant event this evening...now I have no options to have my hair styled and wasn’t told in advanced... while the receptionist was apologetic, this could have been avoided with better communication.

Review №64

I heard that this was one of the best salons in town, so I went in the day before to inquire if they could do a very specific cut for the person I would be bringing in. I was very detailed when describing this. They assured me that it would be no problem. The next day when we sat down for the haircut they proceeded to do something totally other than what I had requested the day before. There was no finesse or care involved. We were both incredibly dissatisfied with the results of the haircut. I would not recommend this establishment.

My boyfriend went to get his haircut yesterday and it was a disaster. He did not get the fade he wanted, and has uneven side burns. Along with that, his neckline was not shaped up, and his hairline is slanted. The lady trimmed his eyebrows without him asking for her too, and was in rush. Pretty unfair for paying $46.
