Ashley does the best haircuts for my son! It always comes out so well, despite any wiggles, and she does a great job keeping him calm and patient (when he decides not to listen to me! Haha). Really so pleased, it always looks so good! It was styled super cute, but then he told her he wanted it “flat” haha I wish I’d gotten a picture before! But that’s why it is the way it is on top haha

Ashley is amazing! We moved into the area and just didn’t know where to go. My teen got a horrible cut from Great Clips and we needed help fast! Ashley not only saved her hair but took the time to explain how to take care of it and get the style she wanted. If you’re new in town and looking for a stylist that will listen to you and do an amazing job, this is your place. I’m just sad it took us so long to find Mane Life.

Highly recommend! Ashley and team make you feel wonderful and valued and are amazing at what they do. I left feeling great with a beautiful hair color and style! The salon is cozy with a natural vibe, really nice place to be. You must check out Mane Life!!

I had a wonderful experience at the salon taking my 6-year-old to get her haircut. Our stylist Ashley was absolutely wonderful with my little girl, and she really listened and made sure I was comfortable with the haircut plan. The end result was likely the best haircut my daughter has ever received. I plan to return the next time my daughter needs to get a haircut.

Yesterday I had the pleasure of having Kaleigh color & highlight my hair. Allow me to say….She did an AMAZING job making me feel beautiful and feeling valued as her client!!! She was very professional, knowledgeable and a very pleasant stylist! All this to say…..She won’t disappoint! Give her a call for your next hair appointment!❤️

I came in due to getting my hair horribly butchered and as soon as I walked in I was greeted and even offered something to drink and snacks loved the atmosphere I seen Ashley and omg she took a horrible butchered hair into perfection i feel like a whole new woman she is the only one who will touch my hair i have found my hair goddess.

I’ve never in my life had to pay over $100 for a haircut. They said that it was all in the website but it just felt all so misleading.. I found this place because I wanted to get my hair colored and had a bad past experience and the first person that she assigned me to was someone who was learning.. they whispered behind my back because the girl who was doing my hair had to keep going back and forth asking her step by step what she had to do… I ended up having to come back for a free session because my hair looked exactly the same (but now extra damaged) Out of politeness and because I liked the people and environment I kept going to dye my hair in hopes of going back to natural so I wouldn’t have to damage it anymore, Then, after a couple of months I came back for a haircut and a hair extension consultation (which a hair extension talk is free said on their website) that was good and pretty but way over priced. Never in my life have I paid that much for a simple haircut. I was charged $80 more because she said she is the head stylist/owner but she only has 1 other person working with her and had a hard time scheduling me.. It felt so off and so misleading. I was okay with paying $300 and more for dying my hair because it’s understandable but with this past experience I no longer feel comfortable and can’t trust this Salon.

Best haircut ever!! Shannon and Solitaire are so friendly and talented! They immediately offered me coffee and a snack when I walked in for my appointment. Shannon took so much time and care in cutting and styling my hair. The whole experience was so lovely and I was really happy with the final result - I’ll definitely be back!

Fantastic stylists, a welcoming environment, and amazing vibes.

I felt a bit outta place here. It was too fancy for me. I'm used to the old buzz cut and strait edge shave. I am not used to being pampered. However, I'd recommend them for what you get in service and quality is well worth the price. They went above and beyond what I expected.

I needed a last-minute appointment to cut my hair before an upcoming event. I started calling local salons trying to find an available appointment - and I found Ashley. Ashley worked out her own schedule to fit me in. I'm so grateful for her willingness to work with me. But more than that - I got a great haircut! Sometimes you have to choose either kindness or competence. Not so with Ashley and Mane Life. You can have both. She gave me a great cut, with a kind attitude. She spent the time to hear what I wanted and made it happen! It doesn't get any better than that. Thanks Ashley and Mane Life Salon!

I wasn’t given services that were adequate, when I wanted to communicate with them they delayed responses saying they would get back with me and never did. I just wanted them to look at my hair and show them it wasn’t properly done, I wasn’t given that chance and wasted over $200.00.

This salon feels like a home away from home. The staff is like a family and it is such a welcoming environment. All of the staff pitch in and help each other. Such care is taken when styling my hair. Shannon is so professional and truly listens to what I want.I leave each time feeling confident and beautiful. I bring both of my children there for cuts as well!

Great cut everytime.

I love the girls so much! Always so welcoming and accommodating! From the second you walk into the door they are taking care of you in some capacity! The work they do on hair is incredible! Shannon has worked really hard on my hair to keep it looking beautiful! Cutting to gloss to a great shampoo and when in a rush fun braids!

I spent 140$ on professional color on my hair at the beginning of June. The salon was beautiful, everyone was so kind and I left feeling like a million bucks. My color however... didn't last past it's first wash a week after it was done. I procrastinated on calling them about it because they were so nice and I didn't want to trouble them but now It's too late for me to get my money back or my hair redone. (Which it shouldn't have needed after it's first wash anyway) I wanted to warn future color clients. I even paid an extra 20$ for them to put the extra drops in that would make my hair color stay longer! I'm really disappointed in my color experience from this Salon. I saw they do excellent cuts and styles, but for me, the lasting quality of the color was not it. (It was dark brown and magenta, not like some bright red that would obviously fade quickly either.)

If I could give Ashley a 10 would !! She is amazing!!! Having had my hair color ruined, she completely redid my hair , getting it back to even better than my original blond color. She listened, gave professional advice and did an excellent job! Her expertise is unmatched ! I can’t recommend her enough! Just so glad I found her and her beautiful studio!!

If I could rate more I would. Nicole was awesome. I walked in with no real vision for my hair and came out looking and feeling amazing. Although Nicole is an apprentice she sure doesn’t act or work like one. Ashley was there every step of the way and allowed Nicole to do amazing work. Will be coming back for sure!! The staff was just one perk, the atmosphere, products and services make it an awesome salon!!
Feb 06, 2022
My first experience was a pleasure. Good advice and conversation, and a small seasonal gift. Went to get my split ends taken care of and Shannon cut it to my request after a generous wash and condition beforehand. Will be returning.

Nicole was awesome and I love my cut!

Shannon is a fantastic stylist! She has a great level of professionalism and is always willing to work with her clients to get exactly what they’re looking for.

What sets Mane Life Salon above their competitors? It is their passionate, dedicated, and encouraging team. I witnessed each person I encountered encourage, cultivate positivity, and bring joy to the atmosphere. I’m 4+ postpartum and I shared that with my stylist, Shannon, and she and Ashley researched to find me a product that will aid me in my hair loss. The entire experience was great. From the wash - the towels smell amazing - to the cut. Shannon listened to mattered to me and produced an outstanding experience and cut! I’m thankful to the team at Mane Life Salon! Thank you for cultivating an atmosphere of joy and for going above and beyond to exceed my expectations. You have a very happy and life-long client.

Ashley knew all about my hair, before I walked in. She took the time and asked lots of questions. Answered all my questions too!! I will definitely be back. Thanks

So glad I found Ashley when I moved here. She is the best. The new salon is wonderful. I highly recommend her for cut and color. Especially color.

This was my first time here, I had book an appointment online with Cayla and was told that she wasn’t able to do my hair so Ally was free and I went with her doing my hair and OMG I LOVE IT!!!! She took her time with my hair and color. I also love the head massage that both Ally and Cayla did. The staff was really Nice and Friendly. This will be my New spot and it a walking distance from my job. I would recommend this place to my friends and family.
