Not what I asked for, showed an exact picture of what I wanted and asked her to make it bright. Not once did my stylist Olivia tell me that she couldnt do it but at the end it was nothing like I wanted. Im not saying its ugly, its just I went in there knowing what I wanted and didnt get it.Going back to get it redone free of charge, hopefully they can fix it. (Thats why I gave them a star)Update; love that the owner worked with me to make sure I got what I was trying for. Olivia had a good positive attitude throughout the entire ordeal so Im impressed by her professional.The new look is a lot closer to what I wanted, Im pretty happy.
Brianna and the staff are absolutely amazing! It’s been months since I’ve gotten my hair done and It was a hot mess. Brianna did an amazing job on my hair and she got it back to looking like me again. I am so picky when it comes to my hair and she knocked it out the park! The staff is awesome and kept offering me a drink and made sure I was doing good. I didn’t realize they could do eye brow waxes. When I mentioned I needed mine done I was told I could get mine done during my appointment which was so nice of them. I was so happy with the service. They really go above and beyond and make sure you’re happy and comfortable. They are so friendly and fun to chat with. Definitely recommend this salon!
This was my first time in the salon and I loved it! Oh my gosh where do I start...the staff was great, everyone was so friendly, I loved the look and the feel of the salon and the best part of my experience was my stylist Lindsey. She was amazing! So sweet and so fun to chat with. She did such an amazing job on my hair. I loved the color and the cut she did exactly what I wanted! I am so happy I decided to try this salon. I can’t wait to go back.
Easily my favorite and beat salon Ive ever been to. All of the staff is friendly and genuine, the new place is gorgeous and inviting, and they always do a fantastic job with everything! Ive been going there for years now and its so ply the best experience I think you can have. Worth the price, worth the downtown visit.
Did amazing work for my lovely wife on her birthday! They colored and cut her hair and made time for her to make her feel super appreciated! They did some of the most professional much appreciated work for my girl and I definitely will take her only here for an unheard of awesome experience!
Really great atmosphere, and my stylist was super friendly and knowledgeable. I felt like the entire staff was up to date on the latest trends so I didnt really have to go into super detail on what I wanted. Other places, I felt the staff was a little older and kind out of touch with the current trends, so my request never came out right. But I never had that trouble here, she immediately knew what I wanted. Free water, nice place, very friendly staff. The only real downside I would say is that if youre used to getting your hair cut at discount places like Snip n Clip or something the prices may be a bit surprising. My haircut was 31$ and I just cut off three and a half inches. However, I feel like youre really paying for their expertise and the atmosphere there, as well as a personalized experience. After my appointment I received a handwritten post card thanking me for visiting. Very great experience, will recommend to friends after on for everything from cuts, styling and dyeing.
Bri is absolutely amazing when it comes to creating exactly what I want! I’ve never left the salon feeling like she didn’t just go above and beyond what I asked for. She takes her time no matter what and never makes you feel like what you want isn’t achievable! The staff is so nice and welcoming! ❤️
This salon is amazing!! They made me feel comfortable and right at home I asked Bri to do two colores in my hair and she did it without any hesitation, highly recommend it!! They are the best!!
This place is incredible!!! I’m not sure where to begin...the staff has incredible credentials and experience to make you feel at ease putting your trust in their hands. Olivia was up-front with me about the coloring I originally wanted and wanted to make sure I was getting something I was going to like. They completely pamper their guests! I was offered mimosa, water, soda, snacks (basically anything I wanted) while they worked their magic on my hair. Even though my hair took a long time, they never made me feel like I was an inconvenience! Olivia Currasco is phenomenal, and I am guaranteed to be a lifer now!!!
This place is GREAT and Bri is AMAZING. We have been going here for the last 2 years. My daughter wont let anyone else touch her hair.
I usually dont write reviews, but I cant get over how amazing this salon was. Moving around a lot, I always dread the having to find a new salon part. Im so glad I found this one. Immediately I was greeted by everyone. I was given a tour of the salon, which is amazing. They have so many services! I was offered donuts, coffee, wine, water. It was probably the best customer service I ever had. They listened to exactly what I wanted and wrote down a plan for what they were doing. I messed up when scheduling with 2 stylists online, Olivia and Bri. They were so nice about the mix up and split the time between the two of them and I was not disappointed. Both were amazing and both gave me good advice for maintenance on my hair, since Ive been having a difficult time with keeping the color. I love the cut and color. I cut a good amount of hair off. All of the staff were so inviting. I am so blown away. It was an amazing experience. I would definitely recommend this salon!
Bre is lovely and wonderful so easy to talk with and is so very talented!! She can do everything hair.
I dont have imagination when it comes to my hair. They help with style ideas and I have been SO happy with the cuts I have had. Service is excellent and I love the atmosphere - its like going to a different city to get a haircut.
I went in to get a quick brow wax. Mackenzie Black did my waxing. She explained everything as I had only had it done one other time. She did a great job and everything looked great. I will most definitely be back for more brow waxes and other services as well A+++
This is the absolute BEST salon for your bridal party. Yall we had 12 girls and each one was getting their hair done for the wedding. The staff at ABLS set up mimosas and a full spread while they did our hair. I cant wait to post pictures. The atmosphere and vibe were perfect for the day of the wedding. Seriously wouldnt go anywhere else.
LOVE this salon! Everyone is so professional and friendly. They will treat you like family. Ive been going to Katie Stuber for years and shes amazing. I highly recommend her!!! Shes very talented and friendly and fun. Always listens to what you want and has great tips and ideas. Shes amazing at colors, cuts, and waxing.
Fun atmosphere and incredible service! Mackenzie always makes me feel beautiful, whether Im getting a deep conditioning treatment for my hair or a pedicure! She always goes above and beyond. Highly recommend her for all of your beauty needs!
Great service, amazing quality cut, color, style and olaplex
Best salon in Wichita! Hands down! Very professional and friendly. Grade A customer service. Every stylist is talented and so welcoming. Upon arriving, youre greeted and given a tour. Ive been going to the salon for 2 years now and have never been disappointed. The place is clean and sophisticated. The salon has an array of services to offer. Im home and never going to another salon again!! I love ABLS!!!
Upscale salon where you wont feel judged. My hair was a disaster and I needed to go somewhere nice to get it fixed. The staff in there were super nice (real nice, not fake nice) and the girl who cut my hair did an awesome job. It was a little expensive, but definitely worth it.
First time to this salon, very impressed with everyones kindness, very clean and inviting. The best part about it my hair stylist Olivia was amazing. I have never loved my hair so much before. Definitely recommend Her and the salon to anyone looking for a new look.
Thank you to the Owner of Abls A for getting me in at last minute just before closing. She was meticulous with the entire hair cut process. Loved every minute of it. Thank you! I was an out of town guest, I will be back.
I did really enjoy going there. I went three times, twice got it cut and colored. They colored it twice trying to get it silver to match my own gray. It was dyed a blonde. I wanted my dark hair with a blended diver with my natural silver. I havent returned.it has been months since this happened.
The fella who cut my hair was so down to earth and GOOD at cutting my hair. Really happy with the service.
Love this salon. Jenny is awesome, she’s good and super sweet too, she gave the balayage highlights that I asked! I Couldn’t be happier! Highly recommended.
I drive TWO hours to have my hair done at ABLS! The environment is laid back and friendly, yet so cool and trendy. From the moment I walk in the door Im treated like a guest, not just a client. Free water, relaxing couches for waiting, great music, and talented stylists! Love it!
The review rating of 5 stars doesnt due Brianna owner of ABLS (Paul Mitchell) Salon and her well taught staff justice. For those of you who started having issues with hair dye I.e. an allergic reaction, itchiness ABLS is the place for you. I found her on google. Her reviews were amazing so I came to her with my allergic reaction issues. She made time to do the research how she could help me when other big name salons here in Wichita didn’t. I don’t dread or stress getting my hair colored anymore. As a general rule I don’t give reviews ever unless it’s well deserved. Call it fate or just luck but Thank you, Brie and your staff.Grateful clientGloria
Love love looooooove Mackenzie Black!!! Shes amazing at what she does and the only stylist I trust with my hair. My hair has never been healthier or blonder and its all thanks to her! Awesome salon as well filled with a lovely staff.
The only place to get my hair and make up just the way I want. The stylists are great, helpful and very talented. Love this place and would never go anywhere else.
The first time I came in I was given a tour of the salon. I was offered drinks and food. My sister got her hair done and before she even started Bri took notes over her hair and what the goal was. Bri and Laura did an amazing job. I came in today and got extensions, and I absolutely LOVE them. So happy with my decision to try this salon
I showed up for my appointment exactly on time (and made 24 hours in advance and confirmed via text) and was informed that there would be at least a 30 wait. One customer in the chair and one waiting before me. Did not get any notice of running behind prior to showing up at the salon and no explanation for the stylist running so far behind. Not acceptable and unlikely the salon will last.
I love this place. Awesome atmosphere and everyone was so nice. Tess did a great job on my hair.
I don’t even know where to start!!! I went in to have Bri do my hair and I told her I wanted Platinum with Brown lowlights. She talked to through the process and I told her I was scared I didn’t want my hair to fallout!! To my amazing happy surprise this girl did flipping amazing and my hair looks awesome with NO BREAKAGE!!! I am 28 and in my years of getting my hair done this is the BEST PLACE EVER!!! I will forever be a loyal customer!!! Thank you 🙏
Mackenzie did my hair and I love it! She gave me an amazing color that matches me perfectly! I would highly recommend anyone to go see her.
What an amazing place! Everyone was so nice. Zac was my stylist and he did an amazing job. I would highly recommend.
I have been living in Wichita for almost 4 years, I have tried a several salons in Wichita but they did not give me what I want except BRI. It was the first visit for me, ABLS are clean and amazing place, friendly and kind staff. (BRI) you are fabulous and proficient because you gave me what I was looking for. Officially, I declare you will be my hairdresser as long as I live in Kansas.LOVE YOU
Such great service! I love coming in for an appointment, they are such funny, helpful people to be around. Definitely make your next appointment with Mackenzie! ❤
I have been going to ABLS since they opened. I am really picky about my hair and was nervous about going to a new salon. I was very impressed to say the least! The staff is very profession and they take the time to listen to you about your wants and needs. The owner even gets involved and assist the staff with any questions or concerns they may have. They are all very friendly and amazing. They work well with each other and with customers!! I am so glad I walked into that salon when I did. I look forward to many more years there!!!
I have been going to Abls for 3 years now I love everything about it !! My hair has grown so much and has never been so healthly. I want to Thank first and for most Bri and her team they have warm welcoming hospitality and work wonders with their hands !!
Every time we go in for our appointments we are greeted and made to feel wonderfully welcome. My family all go to ABLS and love it. Thank you Bri for operating a salon that treat the customers so well. All of you are top notch!
Nice salon but my hair style was blah. I paid for an updo and my hair was flat before I left the salon... I could have done a much better job... but I was pregnant and tired...
Ive been going to Bri almost 15 years......her and her staff will treat you like family and make sure you are taken care of!!!! They get monthly education from the Paul Mitchell educators. They all stay extremely up to date on all the latest trends......
This place is amazing! I first went to ABLS in 2013 and loved it then and still love it! This week I was in desperate need of some hair love. I got a perm last year and it left my hair damaged on the ends and read up on Olaplex treatments. I contacted ABLS and they were able to get my in for a treatment the very next day! Olivia is amazing at what she does and the new building is so amazing! I love this team and love the salon. I will always recommend this place!Oh! One more thing, I took a bag home with some products and when I got home I realized there was a pamphlet with services, sample shampoo and Hershey Kisses in it! What a nice little surprise!
What couldve been a disappointing experience turned into the best I have ever had... I called and made an appointment requesting the most experienced stylist in baylage they had while also wanting a cut... the person on the phone was very friendly and even got me in the same day I called ( which for an upscale salon is impossible it seems ) so right off the bat I was thrilled... I went in for my appointment, met with my stylist, and went through everything I was wanting... the stylist assured me everything i wanted could be done and seemed just as excited as me to get started... as the time past ( which was a total of 4 hrs for what I wanted done ) the stylist and I had a blast talking and laughing but when it came to the final reveal my hair was not what I asked for/wanted but it was late everyone else had went home and I didnt feel comfortable expressing my disappointment... after going home that night I debated all night and morning on what I should do...do I call them...do I live with it...do I go somewhere else... ultimately I ended up deciding to call back hoping and praying they wouldnt be upset and something could be done... the person I spoke with was the personal assistant to the owner... she listened to every detail of my problem while taking notes and was nothing but SWEET to me... she told me she was soo sorry, even thanked me for calling back, and wanted to speak directly to the owner and would call me back asap... I waited less than a half an hour before I heard back saying the owner herself wanted to see me that day... So I went in that day and was soo nervous that everyone would be staring and whispering like thats her or yep here comes the problem client ... but it wasnt like that at all... everyone was soo welcoming offering refreshments and snacks trying their best to make me feel comfortable... next thing I know the owner comes, introducing herself, and sitting next to me on the couch... SHE WAS AMAZING... she listened to me without making me feel rushed, she recognized all my concerns and told me they were justified, and she personally thanked me for calling, coming back, and allowing her the opportunity to make it right... I have never been treated soo well at a salon... I have never had soo much fun at a salon... and I am proof that the owner truly cares for her clients and is thankful for the business she is building... she is willing to go above and beyond to make sure your not just happy but love your hair ( and I do LOVE my hair now)... I will never go anywhere else... I am soo incredibly grateful for my happy ending of what couldve been the complete opposite... THANK YOU SOO MUCH BRIANNA!!!
ABLS is the only place I will ever go to get my hair done. I have only had one “bad” experience and that was because I didn’t listen to the advice of my Stylist Bri (Owner) and pleaded with her to do it the way I thought I wanted and not the way she suggested, so it was my own fault not hers. After we were done and I looked in the mirror she immediately knew I didn’t like it from the look on my face. She told me to go home and style it the way I like and in the morning if I still didn’t like it to come back and she would fix it for free. Well I did just that. I went back the next day and she did what she had suggested the day before and I LOVED IT! Never will I question her process again.😂😂. She knows what she is doing and she has never disappointed me. People need to have realistic expectations when bringing in pictures they found on line and expecting to have a stylist recreate the exact color and cut. A good Stylist will know what is achievable and what isn’t for your specific hair. Bri and her staff rock!! Best salon in town hands down
Favorite salon ever. They treat you like a guest in their home, and their work is amazing!!! I never leave there unhappy!!
Excellent staff - great about listening to what you want. Very accommodating. Recommended to family and friends.
Love love this Salon. All the staff is amazing and talented. Never leave disappointed. 🤗🤗
Hands down ABLS is the BEST salon in Wichita! I will not go anywhere else for my hair. The staff are like family. Its a relaxed comfortable atmosphere and the best part is you cant walk away being anything but amazed by your results..... I am NEVER disappointed with my hair :) Bri always does a fantastic job!!
Went straight to ABLS from the airport and had a great experience. Super friendly, great atmosphere, and a very affordable and excellent hair cut and shampoo. Will be going back every year i come to Wichita.
This salon is the place to be!!! Bri the owner has so many years in this industry. Her passion for this industry is unreal. She dedicates her whole life to make her business grow. Along with her employees. She expands her knowledge to every single stylist to make them the ultimate hairdresser and the best they can be. Now to her clients, they are VERY loyal. They become more then just clients, they become family. If your in search of a new salon home come visit ABLS.. they will pair you with the best stylist that fits your needs!!
The salon is an overall great place! I love Jenny Ruiz,shes been doing my hair since I moved here about 4 years ago!
Wasn’t the best. I asked for a warm blonde with two shades of blonde and also a toner which wasn’t delivered. I walked out with bits of hair that were white and others that were that orangey sort of colour which requires toner.
I hated it....i never go back to that salon...i am very disappointed..😅😅😅I had my first ever relaxing treatment at this Saloon(Olivia),i was very excited but that didnt last long, i lost all the relaxing with in 2 days after my first hair wash. when i called and complained they asked me to come and have it done 2nd time, so i went and they finished it in a real hurry(Olivia again) and they didnt do it well, as a result my hair became very frizzy and damaged. I called them and complained again so they agreed to do the hair repair treatment for free. So next time i went there a little late for my appointment (with my 10 month old son 25 min drive) they kept us waiting for 35 mins only to tell that i was late and they cannot do it for free and i have to pay and that was the owner of the salon who said. That was very unfair and i was horribly disappointed 😔.
I was really impressed and was greeted with a smile was asked if i needed anything to drink waited jus a few minutes to get to my stylist which was olivia super sweet great attitude got my hair color that i wanted a massage while i got my hair shampooed i loved it and overall was great service will go back nxt time. Thank u Olivia will c soon!! 😍
They must charge for the location because quality of the hairstylist I had my experiences with were very low. I read somewhere that they thoroughly consult with their clients before any treatments. I went to go lighter on my hair because I had gone dark before which is why I chose to go here. The stylist went in with asking me very few questions. I honestly felt like she didnt know what she was doing. She applied SO MUCH heat to my hair. She FRIED it and chopped some layers from the top to hide what she fried. My hair was kind of long before I went in and I walked out with some of my top layers being about 4 inches long. I contacted the owner and she refused to fix it until I gave her a bad review on Facebook, that got her attention. She was rude and extremely unprofessional even then. She said shed only fix it if I took the review down. Well, because of her unprofessionalism I did not and she replied with a very passive aggressive response. Dont waste your money here, take it where there are real professionals and real talent. Although this was a while back I decided to write a review now because my hair is still trying to recover from all the damage.
I am commenting today on MY service and care I receive and have received every visit from Bri. She has been my stylist for over 17 years and I have never seen her be anything less than professional. ABLS is a fun salon and Bri and her team care about their clients.
Really good salon and barber. Nice atmosphere and waiting area.
Only place I will go to get my hair done. Olivia is great at doing color.
I had not colored my hair for several years before I went to see Mackenzie. I was so worried about the color damaging my hair; I have been trying to grow it out for what seems like a lifetime! After putting my trust in Mackenzie, she gave me a beautiful natural-looking ombre that left my hair feeling healthier than ever! I cant thank her enough for my great new look. Several people compliment the color, and many of my friends have gone to see her since. If youre looking to get a great ombre, go see her!! :)
Ive been going to Bri and her team for years. Always a good atmosphere and high quality level of service. Definitely recommended for mens haircuts as well as womens. Keep up the good work ABLS!
Looooove this place!! The first time I went to ABLS it was a surprise for my birthday and I was a little hesitant having someone I had never met do my hair, but it was the best birthday gift ever!!!!! Jenny did my hair and I will never go anywhere else! She is amazing with color and Im sooooooo glad I found her! The staff is so nice and did I mention Jenny is amazing??!??? Definitely recommend this place - Go see Jenny!! :)
Bri did my hair and OMG!!!!!!! She is amazing!!!!! I highly, highly recommend going to her!!!! Her, Christina and all the girls are so nice! LOVE MY HAIR, IM OBSESSED!!!!!!!
Bri and her staff go out of their way to make every visit an experience. Always friendly and welcoming.
How often do you get exactly what you want...!? I did! Thank you Bri...love it. 💕
I will NEVER go back. Ever. I had my hair cut by Olivia and i went out to my car and cried. She has no idea what she is doing and i probably wont ever go back even to that street. I had to go to another salon and have it fixed. She had done hair for 23 years and said it was the most awful haircut she had ever seen. Stay away ladies
Great place. Everyone does awesome job!
If you are wondering whether to try abls - just do it! This is a cool salon and has a great atmosphere. I use Katie Stuber (of course), but have spent a lot of time at the salon and all of the stylists are excellent. In addition to a great cut and color, Katie has given me SO many tips about how to style my own hair, which really helps me maintain my style in between visits. She really cares about making sure her guests look their best and will take great care of your hair. Great Shellac manis too!
LOOOOOOOVE ABLS!! Olivia is freaking fabulous!! Olivia rescued my hair from another salons mistakes and has ROCKED my last two cuts...Ill be going to ABLS from now on...unless my girl leaves :). I love all of the compliments that I get on my hair cut...people in MO were mad they couldnt make it all of the way to my salon!! P.S. Thanks for the free brow waxing for my birthday!!
Energetic lively fun friendly relaxing atmosphere A whole Dumont stadium parking
Great job... Nice studio, trendy, friendly people.
First came to Bri as a hair model and I have never received so many compliments on my hair in my life!!! Bri is amazingly talented and has the best staff ever. The salon has a very welcoming, fun, relaxing environment. They can do everything and anything and I will never go to another salon again. Best experience of my life. Absolutely no compliants whatsoever!Thank you, Bri and all the girls!!!
Ive been here once so far, I went to Rachel, and she did an awesome job! I wasnt charged an outrageous price, and everyone was very nice, I am most certainly going back to Rachel and I would definitely recommend this salon!
They always do a good job on my hair.
Love the color that Zacch Edgmon used to cover up my gray hair.
Amazing salon with the most talented and friendly staff
Professional and fun atmosphere!
Brianna and staff are excellent!!
I love this place
Fantastically
The first time I went I asked them to paint lilac hair but it did not leave me lilac left me like pink. I washed my hair for the three days they said and all the color went yellow and that I put on a purple mask for what color lasts but not hard anything but girl who attended me told me to come back again because it left some parts yellow. I went back a week because I was old. When I went back I told him girl what color does not last anything went out and I left platinum blonde really nice girl but my root is still yellow a weigh she long white hair even the hair was quiet enough. the truth is better than it was but it is not what I really wanted. the exaggerated cost for quality Ive been in Chicago a very good room not apasado esto.mi hair is super battered and step root yellow parts really sorry for girl who despite everything was kind. I did not like it completely. My hair is shattered.
