Au Reve

Went to the salon only once after a referral from another patron. Looking for help getting rid of some ghosts of long ago highlights and back to my natural color. Understanding that’s very difficult to do, I met with a stylist and followed her recommended plan of coloring over all hair with a semi-​permanent, very dark color she stated would fade over the following week. I thought it was a bit unusual she didn’t dry my hair before I left so I could at least see the color. The color didn’t fade to any extent that was at all noticeable over the following 3 weeks. When I called back to ask what might be another option, I was basically told she didn’t know what to do and gave me the number of her friend whom she claimed was better at color. No offer to refund the $ 100.00 the color cost. After mulling it over, I wasn’t too sure I was comfortable with that. I consulted with 2 other stylists at 2 other salons and was told by both the all over color was not the right thing to do. So, I had a color correction done at Rowdy Hair and it’s almost exactly my natural color. Wish I would have gone there first.

Suzi had been doing my hair for years and I’m always pleased. She can do magic with color! The prices are reasonable and the atmosphere is inviting. I highly recommend Au Reve Salon!

I come in every few weeks to get my hair colored here. Erin is so friendly and sociable and I’ve been going to her for a year now. It’s easy to schedule an appointment with her and I can usually get in if I call a couple days before my appointment. If you’re in desperate need to get in and don’t care who does your hair they can usually get you in within half an hour. My hair always turns out so vibrant and beautiful every time I get it done here. My hair has never held the color on my roots too well but after a few weeks and about 10 washes later the bottom of my hair has still held the color so well and it’s still bright. This place is a little more expensive but it’s well worth your money. You won’t regret it!

My hair stylist was Kathy. I had never been there before. The first thing she says to me was «I only have 15 minutes to cut your hair». I thought that was rude, and I didn’t want someone rushing through my hair cut! Other then that the salon was nice, Kathy was pleasent over all. My hair cut was good as well.

My favorite salon in Phoenix. It’s such a cute, welcoming place with employees that treat their clients and co-​workers like family. The hair stylists and nail techs will go out of their way for anyone. Every cut and color I’ve had done from there has been perfect and everything I’ve asked for. I will never leave this place!
Oh and there’s fresh treats, iced tea, lemonade and coffee always ready for you when you walk in!

I have been going to this salon for 3 or 4 years. Not only is it super convenient for me because it is down the street from my house the service here is impeccable. Cathy Messer is a great hair dresse! She gives the best hair cuts and is a perfectionist. Nicole Artino does my nails and does an amazing job and is great to talk to. I receive compliments on my hair and nails often. Everyone here takes pride in what they do and the atmosphere is extremely inviting.

I love this place! The atmosphere is great and everyone is so sweet. Laurie Roth is the best! Show her a picture and she will cut and/​or dye your hair exactly the way the picture is. She can do anything. Definitely getting my hair done by her as long as she’s in business! Her prices are also very reasonable.
Krystal Lynn is also the best nail tech for detailed nail designs.

This salon is one of the best in the valley. From the hairdressers to the nail techs to the massage therapists — all top notch!
Nail techs Sandy, Angie, Lorrie, and Wendy are some of the best you’ll ever work with. The price is right too. When comparison shopping, be sure to compare apples to apples. These ladies do SO much more in their pedicures for a «regular fee» than most places would ever think of. The last place I went charged extra for a citrus scrub or a masque for your foot (wrapped in a hot towel), or a special nail design. Not these ladies! It’s all included. They are efficient, but never rushed. That means they booked plenty of time for you. This place is like a big family. They treat each other and you with respect. Going the extra mile is the rule rather than the exception here. My nail tech, Sandy, has worked on Sundays, has stayed late in the evening (8:30 and 9:30), and has even offered to drive me home once. (I was her last client.). She has squeezed me in for emergency repairs on numerous occasions. Their generosity to clients and their support to the community is well known. When you’re here, you’re family.

I’m so glad I found Au Reve! Laurie is a great hair stylist. She has helped me through the year-​long process of growing my hair out, even through that awkward middle stage. She has lots of wonderful ideas about styles and hair color. It’s a great salon, and can’t recommend it enough!

OMG, Tammy Osborn is amazing. I have followed her to different salons for many years. She works magic with color and I look forward to spending the 2 hours with her as she is a joy to be around. Au Reve is a fun salon with a fun location right next to the Deer Valley Airport. I just love watching the planes land and take off while getting my hair done.

Laurie Roth is the absolute best colorist and hair cutter I have ever had. She is extremely knowledgable and knows how to make my hair look fantastic. Her prices are also very reasonable. She is a gem!

I read the reviews here on Unilocal before I made my appointment. Great location, only five minutes from my home, clean atmosphere and kind and attentive employees. I came in for a haircut with Jodi and couldn’t be happier. I showed her a picture of the length and style I was looking for and had a great consultation overall. My haircut turned out to be exactly what I was wanting and overall had an ideal experience. I would definitely recommend this place and will be going back! Thanks Jodi!

Desiree @ Au Reve is my regular stylist. She takes the time to listen to exactly what I want and make sure it happens. In the past I have seen her ‘fix’ clients who are not happy with how their hair turned out despite it being what they asked for, although she always makes suggestions if she thinks you are better suited to different styles. Desiree also did the hairstyles for all the girls in my wedding party. She knew all the most recent braids and did perfectly messy fishtail updo’s which I couldnt have been happier with! She did 7 of us in 4 hours which I think is amazing, A++ to Desiree.
I also go to Lorrie @ Au Reve for my nails; Shellac Manicure every time. She is easy to talk to and has the full line of colors from OPI and Gelish. The Shellac Manicure takes 1 hour and I am always extremely happy… they also have the quick dry LED light (no UV rays to worry about) which I appreciate. The manicure easily lasts 2 – 3 weeks and is reasonably priced compared to other spa/​salons. Lorrie books her own appointments so you will have to call the salon and ask for her phone number.

Love this place. Lori Roth Is excellent with color and very reasonably priced. You can also get great massages too.

I love this salon! Clean, vibrant, busy and everyone is so friendly and genuine. Laurie Roth is the BEST for awesome cuts AND color… hard to find that in just one person. Her rates are great, and she is very knowledgable and passionate about what she does… and that’s why I will be back again and again.

I heard about Au Reve through Living Social, where I purchased a massage certificate. The day of my appointment I happily realized that it was really close to my house. I never know what to expect the first time I get a massage at a new place, but the masseuse was happily waiting for me at the front desk, so I took this as a good sign.
After filling out the requisite questionnaire, we headed for the massage room. It was an adequate space but unfortunately not insulated enough to keep the loud voices in the rest of the salon. It didnt take me long to block out the voices and start relaxing once the massage began. The therapist, I believe her name was Davinia (sp?) listened when I described my problem areas and really gave me a great massage. My most tense areas felt so much better not just after the massage, but days after. One of my favorite things was her use of heated pads on my feet while my body was being massaged and the warm towel placed under my head when I flipped onto my back. These kept me warm and cozy feeling throughout the hour long massage. A really great touch if you ask me!
The therapist offered me the same price I paid through Living Social if I re-​booked, and that was a no-​brainer on my part. I’m only afraid I put my next appointment out too far because I already want to go back!

Wonderful salon! Came in with a mop for a head and left looking sharp. Prices are pretty decent too.

Even though my last visit was painful, I decided to try a microdermabrasion facial here — and lived to regret it.
I wanted to give her another try with another service because she’s such a nice person, but it’s not working out. I thought I asked if she did diamond-​tip dermabrasion, but she turned out to do the type where crystals are shot at your skin and vacuumed up instead. This kind of sucked. It was not only painful, but really messy. I was cleaning grit out of my ears and hair for a day or two.
Next time, I guess I’ll have to ask for a tour, see the equipment, and then book the appointment. :(
If you like microderm, I highly suggest the type where the tip of the vacuum wand is abrasive. It’s very effective, not painful, and not messy.
