Foxtail Salon

I loved this place. Jude is great. This was my first time here and she was easy to talk to and has lots of training. She defiantly knows her stuff. I’m so happy to have found a new salon home!

I’m newer to the area and was struggling to find a salon to go to. I came here based on the Unilocal reviews and I’m so glad I did! Jude cut my hair and did a perfect job!
Their services are great and their prices are extremely affordable compared to other salons in the area! They are located in the salon suites right off of Mill Ave.
I’m happy to say I found my new salon!

I have had my hair done by Jude two times now and I will be back. The salon is located on the bottom floor of West 6. The salon is small but I like it that way. There is not much going on and Jude always focuses on you. Not only does she do an amazing job on my hair, but the prices are very affordable (especially for me, who is a college student) and the conversation is very easy!

Love this salon!
I went here my first time as a college student using a Groupon. Candace trimmed, glazed, and styled my hair. She is absolutely amazing. If you ever need a perfect blowout — she’s the best around.
I highly recommend this place. The salon is located right under the W6 and the prices are affordable.

I needed a last minute hair appointment and called Foxtail Salon, Candice got right back to me and was able to get me in the next morning. Candice did an excellent job and in fact, this is the best hair cut I have had in a long time. She did the color too and I was very happy with the way it turned out. I will be back again!

I had my hair done by Jude and I’m in love! I’ve never left a salon happier than I did after my cut & color with her. The salon is cute and intimate. Jude has a lot of experience and I’m so glad I found my new go-​to girl for my hair!

My old hair stylist left Phoenix last year, and I had bounced around to a few different salons before giving up. With a new job starting, I knew it was time for me to get my hair cut again. I turned to Unilocal to try to find a salon in Tempe, and decided to give Foxtail a try! I called and didn’t receive a return call, so I texted instead and heard back almost immediately.
I went in this morning to see Candace, and found an inexpensive metered spot next door. The salon, on the first floor of the W2 building, is small and intimate. Candace put on some good music (thank you!) and started to rehab my sad, crunchy hair. She was efficient, friendly, and down to earth. I love my haircut and the affordability compared to other salons! I will definitely be back, and will be telling my friends about Foxtail, too.

Tried calling a few times to set up an appointment and even left a voicemail and text. They never felt the need to answer the phone or call me back.

I am incredibly high maintenance about my hair, as in I moved away from my long time stylist (several states away) and still flew home to see her because no one came close. Three moves and a lot of air miles later, I discovered this great little salon in downtown tempe. Not only are the highlights and color amazing, the cut is great and the price appropriate. I’ve already made my next three appointments

I am a bit late in my review, but it doesn’t matter!
I bought a groupon and scheduled an appointment back in October of 2013. The Groupon was an amazing deal: $ 59 for deep conditioning, partial highlights, haircut and style!
The place is at the bottom (first floor) of the W-​6 towers with many salons there! The general area looked very nice and upscale. Their salon also looked super nice and yet very simple and small! Jude did my hair, she is one of the 2 owners/​stylists!
She was very sweet, understanding and really listened to what I wanted! She also offered me advice (which I very much needed) regarding which color of highlights to go with! She seemed like a dedicated very hardworking woman and I really respected that! Oh by the way, they honored my Groupon and were very nice to me regardless! (Haven’t we all had that business owner that almost doesn’t respect you if you walk in there with a Groupon? Yep! This one is not it, thank God)
At the time, they had timing/​scheduling issues, but that’s only because they were overwhelmed with a gazillion Groupon customers. Nonetheless they were very apologetic about it!
I loved my time there, and definitely love the result! I would love to give them another shot and just get a haircut next time! On another note, parking now somewhat sucks because that huge lot right in front of them is closed! However, there is a parking garage very close to them!
All in all, a great place! I think they are very good at what they do, and they are very personable!

Candace is great! I live on the central coast in California and refuse to go to any salons here just because she’s just that great! She can always get me in on short notice and out within the hour still looking 50x better than I did when I came in. great prices for amazing hair! what more could you ask for? pleasant experience all around and I definitely try to come in every time I’m in town

I went in for a cut and an all-​over color with Candace, which was a groupon I purchased awhile back. Oh my gosh she did and absolutely PERFECT job! I went from very long, scraggly, dry and faded hair to a short sassy bob with bangs and beautiful chocolate brown brunette with a hint of red. Candace understood exactly what I wanted and did so well with the cut and color. On top of that she is super friendly and the salon is really cute! I got to chat with her sister a bit and see her working on a client and I got the impression Jude is just as good. I’ve been living groupon-​to-​groupon for hair services ever since moving here a year ago but this place is so good I’m gonna have to just keep coming here from now on!

So I managed to get my a** to my local Walmart and picked up the recommended shampoo and conditioner which was Loreal Sulphate-​Free and depending of course on what you like (me: Smooth and Sleek) you pick out from that line. Keep in mind, this was a recommendation from Angela, as I had lamented to her about the sorry state of my hair due to the dryness of Arizona weather.
Can you say winner, winner? My hair has never been this manageable, and I have never been this unfrizzy when I wake up in the mornings. Woohoo! Give it a try if you have the same problem as me (transposed and hair-​disposed) and I promise you won’t regret it… Thanks, Angela dear!

Love my haircut and highlights from Jude!
I’ve been looking for a good salon for a while and I think I finally found it. Foxtail is a small salon — 3 chairs — and felt like an old school beauty parlor in a way. Not because they were old fashioned or anything but because everyone talked to everyone, at one point even a friend of theirs stopped in and joined the conversation. I’m used to just talking to my stylist so this was a fun change of pace.
And Jude did a great job on my hair. I got a cut and partial highlights. The highlights turned out great, just the right color and it looks very natural. The cut is cute and easy to manage. I felt like she listened to what I wanted and delivered great results.
The only downside is the parking. Parking in downtown Tempe is not great and now that the big surface lot in front is closed the only options are meters or the garage. If you’re getting color I would not recommend meters as I was there over two hours — the meter limit.
But that’s not their fault so I will definitely be going back!

Great haircut and honored groupon easily

Yep definitely had the same revelation! Friendly staff, moderately priced, nice small salon, and an excellent haircut from Angela. Very very pleased, will def. come back.

OMG. I’ve been searching for a hairstylist for 6 YEARS after moving to Arizona, and I think I may have finally found her! Candace did my hair today, and I am amazed because she got the color, cut, AND bangs just right! That almost never happens!
I wanted my hair to be a dark brown with some color in it and she did a great job. It’s dark, but it’s not just dark brown. It’s got some warmth, especially in the sun. Didn’t get any dye on my face either. For the cut, I’m trying to grow my hair, so she trimmed my layers, and I’m pleased to say I still have most of the length. I get my bangs cut diagonally to the side and most hairstylists make them too square, but Candace cut them just right with like the first stroke of scissors. I was really surprised. Overall, everything is JUST the way I wanted.
It’s a small, cute salon close to Mill Ave and since there are only 3 stylists working there, it feels personal and cozy. They were definitely very nice and easy to talk to. No awkward forced small talk. I am really happy and am currently recommending this place to my friends! :)

Hair stylists that mesh well with you are hard to find. And since my former stylist had moved across country, I’d put off finding a new one for some time. So I suffered with hideous hair, trimming my split ends myself as necessary.
Just this week I visited Foxtail for my first time. I was a bit nervous, but more of an excited nervous because despite all the salons I’d been referred to by friends or read about on Unilocal,this was the *only* one that gave me feel-​good vibes.
Angela did an incredible job with my lack-​luster mop. The choclate-​ly color she selected is perfect, it complements my skin and eyes like nothing else has. She gave me a versatile cut after asking questions on my styling habits/​preferences. I have never been so pleased with my hair!
As for the atmosphere, it’s tiny and cute, but with lots of windows that open it up. All 3 stylists are friendly and obviously pros: there’s no awkward tension and they seem to all help each other out.

What to say about Foxtails? You are going to a salon so it’s not going to be $ 8 for someone fresh out of an 8 hour seminar, and what a difference that makes.
A great example: I’ve been getting some haircuts I’d been happy with and recently Jude made a recommendation on a different style when I said I wanted to go shorter than I’d been getting it cut. It was really short, almost shorter than I think we talked about, but now a week later it’s coming in really well, just as she assured me. Also, I did some color late last summer and despite the blonding up of my light brown hair, I didn’t look like a complete D Bag. Which is fine line to walk when blonding up the hair for the summer.
Jude is fun and so is her sister Candy. They were playing some music the other day and when Elliot Smith came on and reminded me of my Ex, since she really is just Somebody That I Used To Know, they kindly changed it.
Definitely going to be returning to Foxtails, but probably not for more than a month. The cuts I get grow out really well, better than those Super/​Great Haircuts.
Hurray!

Jude did an awesome job on my hair!
I came in for a cut, color, deep conditioning, and blow dry style. She was right on time for the appointment so I did not have to wait. Very friendly and welcoming from the beginning. The cut and color turned out great. I was very impressed with the style as well. I have very curly hair and always have trouble getting it to look nice straight. It looked fabulous when I left the salon. She was very willing to work with me on what I wanted. I recommend anyone to go there!
