Salon 2457

This place is a disgrace definitely unethical. Tried to use their coupon but the owner said its only for 1^st customer only. There is nothing written on the coupon. Very shady business conduct and misleading ad. The only thing that is good in that place is hairstylist William. He is very good but only works 3 x a week. Other than this talent stay away. Oh BTW don’t let her cut your hair, it’s horrible.

The $ 14.99 monthly tanning special is misleading. It’s $ 14.99 a month PLUS $ 4.25 co pay per visit. I went 2x and will not go again. I initially went to save money, but continuing to tan there would cost more than paying a monthly membership to a nicer, cleaner tanning salon.
The tanning beds and stand-​up are dirty and the owner is extremely pushy, tried to get me to buy products and get my hair done there. It made me feel uncomfortable, and I will not be back.

Went today because I was desperate for a quick cut and couldn’t get into my regular stylist last minute. I walked into this place and remembered, what I thought was the receptionist. as the same rude woman I had before. I said I came in for a quick trim and discovered this rude woman I remembered was going to be my stylist. She told me the first time she cuts my hair the way I like, the next time how she knows it will look good. She took me back to get my hair washed, which I didn’t ask for, and before I know it, she tells me my brows need to be done because they were bad. I was due so I agreed. During my time there she kept trying to get me to set up my next appointment and I continued to tell her I’m happy with my regular stylist. She then told me I need product for my hair because it was so damaged (it was). Somehow she talked me into shampoo and conditioner. She handed me the huge bottles because of the pump. I asked how much for each bottle and it was $ 50. I told her I would instead take the small. Then she tried telling me I needed the Moroccan oil and I told her no. I walked out of there spending about $ 138 for what I planned to be a quick, inexpensive cut. Very pushy woman who told me how she did hair for models, the owners of Zingerman’s, and that she used to work at Sommerset in Troy. I think this woman needs to take some classes in customer service. Stay away! I have never written a review before but felt so strongly that I joined Unilocal just to write this.

I would’ve loved if she was not just selling her services.

Total ripoff. No prices shown other than kids cheap haircut, men’s cut $ 35 but then upsold without being told extra cost for having hair shampooed and tea tree oil she insisted on using. Final bill was $ 92 which I didn’t realize until later since l was in a rush and then later assumed was an error until I «clarified» it with them — $ 92 for a simple, not-​very-​well-​done men’s haircut. Will not be going here again and will be telling everyone else I know to avoid the place as well as reporting them to the BBB.

I have also posted my BE AWARE comments to NEXT DOOR — Dexter/​Miller where I am a member. There were 50+ comments from other members who have experienced similar or the same treatment at the hands of the owner of Salon 2457. Please avoid this place. There are many choices in the area. I truly do not believe this behavior should be tolerated in our society.

This place is terrible. They were rough with their cut and hard on the scalp. She missed large chunks of hair on the neck, around the ears, and at the top. The fade was terrible. The sign out front said 9.95 so I stopped. When she rang me up, my haircut came to 28 for a simple mens haircut– and it was the worst cut of my life. I have very easy hair to cut (light blonde) so how she made it look so bad is amazing. The bait and switch is real here… if they spent as much time cutting hair as they did on getting people to buy salon garbage they might do better. I never review ANYTHING but I have to warn you. Do not go to this place — cut it yourself with garden shears before you go there. I only wish I could insert a photo for you to see my $ 28 cut. My wife won’t stop laughing.

Do not go here. It is a complete rip off. One price is quoted or displayed, then you are charged much, much more at checkout. On top of that, my hair looked AWFUL. Live and learn. Stay away!

BEWARE — SCAM ARTIST
I experienced the bait and switch pricing here as well. I’m posting this now after seeing someone in my neighborhood report this woman (I believe her name is Najwy) on
. There are already 52 replies from other people, all chiming in with similar experiences.
If you have been ripped off by this woman, please take the time to report her to the Michigan Attorney General’s Office and the BBB. This kind of business does not belong in Ann Arbor.

** UPDATE **
In their constant quest to supress negative reviews, Unilocal removed my previous update to this review. I’ll add it again here and see if they remove it again:
I’m not sure if this says something worse about Salon 2457 or
, but there are 74 reviews buried at the bottom of this page (behind a light gray link) that are are «not currently recommended.» Scroll down and check it out. There are a ton of 1 star ratings that seem clearly legit. I’m not sure why Unilocal would demote them, but read them for yourself (and ***remember to click the Helpful button on reviews that you find helpful so they don’t get hidden***).

Yep. Terrible. Pushy. Dishonest. Never coming back. She kept asking me in to write a review on Unilocal on how good it was. Told me on phone haircut was 11.95 but charged me 15.00. She never asked if I wanted a shampoo. Just told me to follow her to the wash basin. She told my hair and scalp was dry. She insulated it was very bad. And of course she has the product for it. Would not stop cutting hair even when I asked her to stop.

DO NOT GO HERE!
false advertising! need to report to BBB. The lady that works here is CRAZY and even though she advertises every where 9.99 for hair cuts for kids, she charged 70 bucks! she is extremely pushy and confrontational and she advertises her poor son as a glamor makeup artist and try to push you to buy expired products. I would never ever recommend anyone to go there. my hair cut was horrible! It was so unhygienic and messy and the combs and brushes were so dirty.

I second the other negative reviews left for Salon 2457 and would not recommend that anyone take their business there. I want to start by commenting on the haircut that I received from the owner of this salon as that is what is most important. I asked her to leave the top longer so that I could style it, but against my request, she proceeded to leave me with little more than one inch worth of hair. In addition, she butchered the edging portion of my haircut. I was enraged. The owner kept trying to blame it on the last person who cut my hair as opposed to taking ownership for her mistake. Also, throughout the cut she made comments about how dry my hair and scalp were and that I needed to purchase the products she carried in her store, because they were superior products to what I was accustomed to using. Overall, the haircut was terrible, the stylist refused to listen to what the customer wanted, and I felt like she was trying to sell me a used car throughout the whole experience. Very disappointing. Next time I need a haircut I will save the $ 18 she charged me and take my business elsewhere.

i would not return to this salon again. when i got there, there was najaw was the only person working. i wanted to have my hair lightened and she said she would not do it. we settled on a color finally, and she slopped it on my head very messily. i still have dye stains on my face and neck 2 days later. she also criticized my hair cut which had been done 2 days earlier at a different place, saying that it was crooked and she could do it better. at this point, more customers come in and she leaves me for an hour to do their hair while never checking the dye on my head. the shampooing of my hair was rather rough, and she left twice to answer the phone. i heard her speaking rudely to the person on the phone, then came back to me to complain about the customer. she also made remarks about my acne and tried to sell me product to «help» my face. all this time i have no idea how much the hair color will cost –my mistake for not asking ill admit. the sign outside said $ 48 so thats what i expected. i bought shampoo and conditioner and paid $ 150 for the whole 2.5 hour experience. in the end, my hair was exactly the same color as when i walked in, and i was dissapointed. i called back the next day to either have it fixed for no charge or get a partial refund, and the most she would do is $ 3 off my next visit. well, there will be no next visit.

Absolutely DO NOT go here. The woman that was working was extremely distasteful and made me want to leave asap. I asked her about 5 times how much the haircut would be and she never told me and put me into the seat and then just started buzzing away. She then told me how ugly and bushy my eyebrows were and that they HAD to be waxed because they were so bad. She did a shitty job waxing my brows too and dripped the hot was all over my face because I guess she was that messy. In the end the buzz cut ended up being $ 22! What?! And then she proceeded to say «I know it says we close at this time, but I never stay that long and I always just try to leave early And it was kind of bad timing when you came in because I was getting ready to leave (1.5 hours before the actual close time).» Unbelievable, do not come here

TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE! I thought I’d go in for a quick trim. I was running errands on this side of town and thought it might be a quick and easy place to get a trim. «Najwa» started by criticizing my haircut and telling me she would do a «better» job. I should have turned and walked out then… After telling her I didn’t want it «too short» she gave me what amounts to a «knuckle cut» actually shorter that that. She also used a hairdryer that was set on «high» to blow the cut hair off my neck and scalp. It was on the verge of burning my neck each time she broke out this torch. She then charged me $ 15 and said the $ 9.99 is for kids cuts. After it was all said and done she asked that I go on Unilocal to give her a «good» review. If you have to ask for a good review — you’re probably not doing such a good job. Do yourself a favor and STAY AWAY from this place.

This salon has been sitting a man who yells inappropriate things to cars, waves creepily to women, and generally looks inebriated on the corner of Jackson and Stadium roads with a sign for this salon. Aside from it being uncomfortable, I wonder how neighbors feel about this marketing technique.
Given the review and this choice in advertising, I will never go. Have a great day.

Was satisfied with my hair but this salon is very overpriced

Avoid at all costs – unpleasant, pushy staff, terrible haircut (I had to have it fixed elsewhere). There are a number of fine salons in Ann Arbor, and this isn’t one of them.

I’ve gone to other haircut places in the area in the past, but it just doesn’t turn out as as well as my cuts at 2457 have been. Najwa is very efficient and knows what she’s doing.

Filthy! Everything about the tanning wreaks of a scam and that in itself is not easy to do. The bed doesn’t heat up, (response was, I wasn’t suppose to put you in that bed), the room is to tiny to close the door, the room is filthy, the bed was not sanitized, no evidence of anything in the room to attempt to sanitize bed and lastly, the sales approach of the receptionist is caustic, pushy and insulting. Don’t be fooled by the great deal, if the bed doesn’t work, you don’t get to tan and then when you see the unsanitary conditions, they point out there are no refunds.
