Sassoon Salon

I moved to AZ not too long ago and I need to find someone that knows exactly what I’m want and what I’m looking for without really saying too much. These two women are professionals. ANGELA cut my hair and I have to be conservative for work but I wanted something spunky at the same time. I got an Short A Line bob and I love it. I have reasons more compliments then I know what to do with! BRITNEY did me a huge favor and accommodated me last minute to color my hair and it’s exactly what I was looking for. They both are sweethearts and I will be coming back to these two!!! Thanks Ladies!

Recently moved to AZ and was looking for a hair stylist. Being a stylist myself I am very particular about my haircuts. Researched for months and found the very best. Tobias thank you for the most amazing haircut. You listened and took the time to make my hair absolutely perfect! Very happy client!

My trip to Sassoon was a great disappointment.
I asked the person on the phone for a second level stylist. A few days before Christmas she said she had the only appt. available, first level and I give her a chance, she is very trained.
I said ok. I only need a little thinning on the sides. I am growing my hair
I don’t want any length taken off.
On the one side it is so sparse it doesn’t
cover my ear.
She said she would put layering in the back which I NEVER wanted but trusted.
By the crown it is approx 4″
It lays so flat it looks like a guys haircut.
I called the manager. He seemed distracted. Asked me to come in but have a monster cold. Wouldn’t cell pics do?
I asked for nothing so he offered nothing.
Disappointment!!!

I have been a client of Britney L. At Sassoon salon for almost 2 years now. She is an amazing colorist and always has my hair looking wonderful. I always get compliments on my hair.

I’ve seen Jesika several times for cuts and couldn’t be happier with her work. She has great style and I trust her completely. Karen, colorist, helped get my damaged hair back to a beautiful blonde today. I’ve had short hair most of my life and never feel satisfied after leaving a salon. I can honestly say I have never been so happy with my hair. I love these girls (and my hair!) and I can’t recommend either of them enough. Thanks Karen and Jesika!

I had a first time appointment with Mark today. Great haircut, the best I’ve had in years. He really listened to me and spent a lot of time ensuring that my cut was perfect.

I just moved to Scottsdale from Chicago and was looking for a good hair stylist in the area. My sister recommended me Mark from Vidal Sassoon. I am very particular about my haircut since I have shorter hair so a it’s a big deal for me!
Mark listened very attentively to my wishes and gave artistic advice on a new style.
I got one of the best haircuts in my life! I keep getting compliments on my hair style every day!!! Mark is phenomenal! Seriously! My both sisters are very happy with him, and I am definitely bringing my mom there! :)) Mark just gained the whole «Lithuanian village”(as we call my family) as his clients! I highly recommend Mark if you want to look stylish and sexy! World class!

I had an EXCELLENT experience at Sassoon! I went it looking for a change and to thin out my hair. I was very honest with my stylist (Jesika). I told her I grew up with boys and do not know how to do much but do want to look good! I told her I go to bed with it wet and wake up and go to work. She gave me the perfect cut! She layered the hair so it falls perfectly! My hair looks great every day and all I do is brush it! Kuddos Jesika!

Tobias is the best!!! He doesn’t mess around and he has the talent and experience to create the look you want or give you the haircut you have been too scared to get! He is a master stylist!!! No one else will touch my straight hair!

Have used Vidal Sassoon salons for many years in San Francisco and Chicago when I lived in those cities and used the Scottsdale salon when visiting Phoenix from my home in Texas. Yesterday at the Scottsdale salon, Mark gave me the best haircut EVER. My hair is very fine and tends to be limp and flatten out after five minutes, but thanks to Mark’s skill my new (very flattering) cut gives my hair «movement» and it seems thicker. I wash my hair daily and today the cut looks as good as when Mark styled it. A quick shake and the cut falls miraculously back into place! All the staff members were friendly and professional (as they have been on previous visits). My only complaint is I don’t have a Sassoon salon closer to home in the San Antonio area!
Thank you, Mark!

I have been going to Sassoon Salon every six weeks for over six years. Nathan does my color and Sophie my cut. I’m a redhead — a color that is difficult for many colorists to get right. Nathan’s color is always perfect and beautiful. Very natural. Sophie listens to all my crazy ideas with great patience and always manages to turn out a cut that is just what I imagined.
The best thing about Sassoon Salon is that staff isn’t changing all the time. So you can really develop a relationship with a stylist who knows your preferences. And if for some reason your regular person is temporarily unavailable, they keep such good records that you can see someone else who can approximate the style you usually get.
This is the best, most professional, lowest drama salon in town. You won’t be disappointed!

I happened to be in Scottsdale and decided it was time to get a haircut. I called Sassoon and was lucky to get an appointment with Mark. It is the haircut I have been wanting for a long time! We talked and discussed what he should do. I agreed and am so pleased. It was pricy but I will definitely be going back for my next haircut.

Great experience — exactly what I was looking for and it came out better than expected. Would recommend Mark to anyone looking for a quality cut.

Just moved back to the Valley and wanted to simply go with a reliable brand name so I called and got an appt for a same day visit, in fact got me in the next hour. I had a great first Sassoon cut with Mark!
I’ve been growing out my hair for about 2 yrs now and its been about 6 months since my last cut so it was time for a visit now that we settled back in. Be wary it’s Scottsdale prices but nothing compared to what I used to pay in Tokyo, however I’m happy with the new Americana look!

Stay tuned. I actually fly to Portland, OR to get my haircut, I’m so picky about who touches/​cuts my hair. I don’t mind spending the money, (I mean I pay to fly to Portland, OR for gosh sakes!) but I need someone who is KNOWS different types of hair, how it reflects the light, and how to cut it best – depending on the hair type– curly, wavy, thin, thick, you get the idea. Color and cut are completed by two different people. They were able to schedule me, last minute… so kudos. So far.
Hair cut was done by the Salon Manager, it was fine. She even had me come back to do some fine tuning. Hair cut was solid.

I came in for a trim and was butchered. After coming home and showering I noticed that over half my hair was gone when requesting about a quarter off. Stylist insisted on cutting more off during my cut. Ive been in tears for days. $ 100 haircut total waste and a year of growth gone. Stay away from this place.
*read reviews below* same issues with many other people. I just wish I read some of these reviews before I went to this place.

I have lived in Phoenix since 1992, and the only salon I’ve used is Vidal Sassoon. I have thin, wavy, fine hair, which means that it can be hard to style. And it can be hard to find people who know how to work with all of these challenges.
The Sassoon stylists are trained to work with your hair the way it is, making the most of your strengths. I’ve always been very happy with the cuts I get here. Not just the first day, but in the weeks after.
For over 16 years, Ronaldo has been cutting my hair. He starts every appointment with an assessment, and always asks me how the last cut worked out. Sometimes, I ask him for new things, like cutting bangs, or growing out my bangs, and he always works with my hair to give me what I want. He takes the time to educate me about how to achieve the same look at home.
If you are looking for a great salon, I heartily recommend Vidal Sassoon and Ronaldo. And if you have challenging hair like mine, it’s even more important to have a stylist who understands your hair and works with it. Ronaldo is my beauty secret weapon!

I would like to give kudos to the salon for contacting me and attempting to correct my hair. I was going to take them up on it, but have decided to go where I know I will get my haircut (back to The Root) but I do appreciate their trying to make good on a bad haircut.
Still, it’s not for me and I will not return to Sassoon Salon.

I have been going to Sassoon Salon for 3 years, and I have never in my life gotten so many constant compliments on my hair. At Vidal Sassoon, cutting and coloring hair is a detailed science that produces a cut completely distinguishable and superior to other salons. I have referred friends to Sassoon, and without them even telling me whether they’ve gone or not, once I see their new hair and confidence I know at once it was Sassoon. There are trademark techniques that Sassoon stylists use to cut and color hair, and boy does it make a HUGE difference! In addition to this, the stylists and colorists work together to create complete looks for each client so that the style and color compliment each other and compliment YOU.
Vidal Sassoon is simply in a league of its own. For example, a couple years ago I was at a fashion event where they hired a big-​name salon professional to do free haircuts for anyone who needed an updated look. He called to me from across the room but I tried to ignore him because I didn’t want anyone touching my hair but the folks at Sassoon. Turns out, he just wanted to tell me how great my hair looked and when I told him I wend to Vidal Sassoon, he said he could tell by the way it was cut and colored. See, even other stylists know how excellent Sassoon is!
MARK is my stylist and he is spectacular! His talent and eye for fashion allows him to tailor a cut designed just for you, your bone structure, hair texture, personal style, and how it will look as is grows out. I have seen him do excellent cuts on both men and women, from edgy and vogue to chic and sophisticated, his cuts are always precise and always flattering. I usually just go in and tell him to have fun and be creative with my hair. The results are consistently amazing and I know I can always count on him. I made my roommate see him and smiled ear to ear every time someone complimented her hair. Also, if I had a boyfriend, I would totally make him go to Mark. He can give some pretty studly looking cuts, trust me. You can’t get THAT at a barber shop. GO SEE HIM!
TARA colors my hair, and she is fantastic! I have platinum blonde hair but it is naturally dark blonde, and it takes a really good colorist to get a platinum blonde that looks this great. Even when my dark roots are starting to show, people still ask me if platinum is my natural color. That’s how good it looks. On top of that, my hair is healthy! Bleaching your hair as much as I need to to maintain this color can take its toll, but she knows just the right way to have the assistants rinse, shampoo, treat and condition your hair so that it’s still silky smooth. Sometimes I tell her to have some fun and be creative, so she’ll put in a panel or two of other colors that always compliment my lovely cut from Mark. GO SEE HER!
This place is so top notch, I was actually joking today that, if I ever move away, I might have to limit my options to places that have a Vidal Sassoon Salon… it’s that good.

Vidal Sassoon has given me the best haircuts of my life!
I’ve tried to find comparable stylists and they just don’t exist. Unless I can find someone trained from Vidal Sassoon working at a different salon, I’ll always be disappointed.
I started getting my hair cut at the Vidal Sassoon Academy in Santa Monica, CA (where they teach stylists how to cut and color). That in and of itself made me a firm believer in the magic they can create. Every time I’d leave the salon I’d get numerous comments on how good my hair looked. I always felt like a million bucks.
When I moved to Arizona I tired a couple of well-​known salons before settling back with Vidal Sassoon. No other salon compares. It’s well worth the money for the cut, and trust me, forking over $ 80 just for a cut and tip doesn’t come easily to me! It took a lot of disappointment with other stylists to come to the conclusion that they’re worth the money.
After going to the Academy for years (and paying next to nothing) for cuts and colors, I listened to the instructors teach students how to cut. First, the actual way the hair is cut is different than other schools; this is the main reason why their cuts are FAR superior in my opinion. You can tell by the way your hair feels and moves when you leave the salon. This may sound silly but it feels like it’s a part of your body and not just an extension of it. That’s the best way I can describe it.
In fact, I’ve found their cuts look better the less styling you do to them.
Plus, they’re long lasting, and don’t require you to come back every 2 months. The stylists have said I could wait 3 months to get it re-​cut, and possibly make it last 4. They weren’t joking. That saves money and when you break it down, the price is comparable to most nicer salons.
I’ve found one of the truest tests of a good haircut is how well it grows out. Any cut can look good the first month (if styled properly and colored well) but only a FANTASTIC cut comes out looking good 2 months down the road without any styling or blow drying. If you can get it to look great 3 or 4 months down the road? Well that’s beyond belief in my opinion.
I’m adventurous with my cuts, and they love that. They’re not afraid to cut your hair in an extreme fashion if that’s what you want. They’re also very good about sticking to your original plan for your hair and not diverting you away from your idea (and thus having it come out being exactly the opposite of what you want). Even if you’re not adventuresome, they are good at accommodating
The staff is excellent, very nice and helpful. I get my hair done by Mark, I highly recommend him!
