Simonson’s Salon & Spa

I am not impressed at all. I get my hair colored and cut every 6 weeks since it is a short style and I am covering up some grey. I was new to the salon and my first visit with my stylist went okay, the color was a bit dull but I realize it takes a few times to get familiar. I stayed with this salon and stylist for 4 more appointments of coloring and cutting and it got worse and worse. There were mistakes with my booking time, the salon called me and asked to reschedule because the stylist was not available. So I rebooked only to get a call from the stylist asking why I wasn’t there at my original time. What sent me over the edge was how rude the front desk was and on my last appointment the stylist cut my hair uneven and missed a main area of color around my temple. I had to go back and she apologized but at that point, I was done. There are so many other options in Maple Grove for salons and am now happy at Kalla Lilly.

Excellent salon, excellent staff. In April I got my hair dyed PURPLE by Hairstylist, Lisa Bettcher, turned out amazing. Last night I decided to go that route again but lighten it up a little bit, more of a fuchsia color. Once again, she did awesome. She truly takes her time, listens to what you want and delivers. Won’t be going to any other hair salon or stylist to get my hair dyed.

Went in to get my nails redone and I am absolutely satisfied with the service. Kim was exceptional in fixing my nails. They look pretty much flawless now. I highly recommend having Kim do your gel nails. She takes her time and does a perfect job! Thank you so much!

I played phone tag with their «QA» person. Never connected. Needless to say, they did nothing to remedy the issues and I decided to let go of the $ 140. If I could post photos of what they did to my hair I would. It’s embarrassing. Lesson learned.

I have been going to Simonson’s Salon since 2003. Angel is the BEST!!! Always courteous and friendly. She listens to me and offers good advice regarding the latest hair trends. I love the products she uses! Highly recommended!!! The staff is friendly and I am always greeted when I walk in the front door. I always walk out looking and feeling good!

Really terrible service. Not worth the money– plenty of better places to go in the area. Staff were deceiving in the way they sold their services, only knew how to speak off the script, didn’t know how to answer questions, really not helpful at all. I’ve never had a positive experience there and haven’t spoken to anyone else who has. There may be a couple of great individuals providing services here as some reviews suggest, but why go when the rest of the experience is so negative? Seriously, don’t waste your time or money.

Since I moved to MN 8 years ago, I have had a variety of massages at Simonson’s and various other salons. It is very hit and miss depending on the massage therapist. Rachelle was A+, hands down, the most amazing therapist I have had in Minnesota. I have already booked another appointment with her in a month.

Addie did a great job with my color today. Turned out really well

I came in for a easilength consult. The price I was quoted was OUTRAGEOUS! I do my research on items/​services that are going to cost me a substantial amount of money upfront, as well as, to maintain. Per the Easilengths Pro website, they list the wholesale cost of their products with a suggested «retail» price that is double what the cost is for the product. Then after paying double for each box of hair (I was advised I needed at least 3 boxes), I was told that I needed to pay another fee, for installation, which is now TRIPLE the wholesale amount of the hair. On top of that, cutting/​blending is not included so I was quoted an additional $ 60 for this. I was told this would take about 3 hours. The price I was quoted was $ 960, which obviously does not include a tip. This means that I would be paying $ 320 per hour (for 3 hours). Considering that each box (of 16″ tape in’s) only costs the salon $ 79.50 ($ 238.50 total), I as a client am being charged an extra $ 721.50 for 3 hours of the stylist’s time. Again, this does not include a tip… This is price gouging at it’s finest and it’s really disheartening to know that Simonson’s would take advantage of client’s like this.

This place would get 5 stars, except that I haven’t used most of their services. The massages (loyalty package) are properly priced, massage therapists are very good, and I can get in with a few hours notice. I haven’t found a place that offers all of these items better than Simmonson’s.

My appointment was made to celebrate my girlfriends bday. We were getting pedicures together. We didn’t get taken back together and I had to wait an additional 12 minutes past my scheduled time for my chair and my friend was taken back spot on time. It was rather annoying to have to wait up front for her, then I felt very rushed especially at the end when the next appointment showed up and she wasn’t done. It really bothers me when the stylist uses their fingers to remove nail polish and I feel like after looking at my nails it was a very inexperienced person, and would never pay $ 70 for that again! Also my girlfriend was done before me and had to get out of her chair for the next person, whats the point of scheduling appointments together if you aren’t going to be able to enjoy them together? I probably wouldn’t recommend this place to my friends for this type of service. I am really disappointed because I didn’t feel like I could relax. Also for $ 70 service I shouldn’t have to look at a bunch of storage containers and bottles of junk laying around on the table in front of me. The salon was otherwise clean looking, but with these other things I probably won’t be back.

I received a gift certificate for my Birthday from my husband for a massage. I had had a lot of pain in my shoulder for a few weeks and was thinking it would be booked out for weeks (most places are after the holidays). Well, I got in right away. I think it was Tuesday when I called and got an appointment for that Saturday afternoon.
One word — AMAZING! If you are looking for a great massage in the north metro I would strongly suggest Jacquelyn at Simonson’s in MG, she was fantastic. She uses a technique called Myofascial Release (sp?), which is kinda like a mixture of stretching and massage. I was constantly moving, I don’t even quite know how to explain it other than you need to make an appointment now.
I left feeling very relaxed and actually able to fully move my arm, which for two weeks I had trouble with almost all movement, even simply putting my coat on.
I am thankful to have found a solid massage therapist just minutes from my new home. Thanks Jacquelyn!
