Had such a amazing experience with Samuel! He really listened to the concerns I had with my hair. I get blonde highlights and it tends to get very tangled after washing and especially after dying. He took the time to blow dry parts of my hair first and slowly seperate the knots with his hands before running a brush through it. I’ve been getting my hair colored for a long time and no one has ever done this! I will definitely be back to see him. I’ve been salon bee bopping over the last year and finally found a stylist that understands my hair.

I had a great experience with Kat! After several traumatic hair experiences at previous salons, she is the first person to listen to me and support my vision for my hair in years. In my culture, hair is sacred, and its been hard for me to trust anyone with it because of so many bad experiences. I have long, course, very thick unlayered hair. I have had stylists thin, cut, and layer against my wishes because they believed it would look better or would be easier to manage. Ive had stylists tell me my hair is unruly and unmanageable. Kat was so laid back, kind, and attentive. She listened to my requests of cutting thick baby bangs with no layers. I am so happy with the results and haven't felt this confident in awhile. I couldn't recommend her more :)

Sandra is incredible. She is so meticulous and does a great job listening to what I want for color/highlights and always executes it perfectly. Highly recommend her for your Midtown appointments

Everything was perfect. I did have a treatment process where I had to sit for about 10 minutes. A massage would have been nice….love u Van Michael’s!!!

Sam is amazing! This was my second appointment with him, and he consistently delivers exceptional service. He’s always welcoming and friendly, making sure to check in about my preferences for color and style. Sam’s professionalism truly stands out, and he’s genuinely committed to ensuring I’m happy with the results. Love the overall vibe, energy, and atmosphere of the Midtown Van Michaels. Happy to be a client of theirs.

Bebe was the best hair stylist I've ever had. She asked specific questions to make sure I was getting exactly what I wanted, and was so kind and accommodating. She understood exactly what I was going for and made suggestions to make it look even better, I looove my hair. Service across the board was the best I've ever experienced in a salon. Can't recommend her or this place enough!

I had an incredible experience with Edison! From the moment I walked in, the level of customer service was outstanding. They made me feel comfortable and valued, and it was clear they truly care about their clients. The hair detox treatment left my hair feeling so refreshed and healthy, and the blowout was absolutely amazing – my hair has never looked this good! Highly recommend Edison for anyone looking for top-notch service and beautiful results!

Once again, another 10/10 Experience at Van Michael Midtown! From the friendliness and courtesy of the front desk, staff, to the precut consultation with my stylist, Bebe, to my actual cut they are fantastic. There’s no reason to go anywhere else - they’re just the best!! 🌟

Bebe does such a great job with my cut every time. She goes above and beyond with explaining how to style and care for my hair. Plus she’s a great chat!

My stylist made me wait for an hour, got the wrong service, left with temporary dye that I had to wash out myself, and there is very little visible difference in my hair: I have been a Van Michael customer for the past year, have visited multiple locations, and had a great experience with the new talent program before. I signed up for a New Talent Balayage, and went in for a consultation the day before my appointment. The consultation went well and I was able to describe to my stylist what I wanted: burgundy/red violet highlights, that blended into my roots so it won't have a hard line while growing out. At the same time, I haven't had my hair colored before this experience, so I followed the stylists lead and brought a picture of the color and highlight pattern that I wanted to the appointment the following day. The next day for my appointment, my stylist ran long with another customer and initially asked me if I could come in a half-hour late. I was okay with that, but when I came in thirty minutes after my appointment time, they had me wait another thirty minutes inside the salon, a total hour total for my service to start. Then, after a discussion and showing my inspiration photos again, we started the service. I paid for a balayage, which I like the look of in the past, and my stylist gave me foils instead. These highlights go straight to the root, and are not what I wanted as they will grow out in a line which is something I wanted to avoid. This treatment was a special Aveda treatment that lightens hair with ammonia and not peroxide, and is only applicable to people with virgin hair. I was excited for this product because it was my first time coloring my hair, and I didn't want to use traditional bleach that would eventually make my (naturally very dark) hair orange eventually. However, this product or application didn't work at all for whatever reason, and instead of having burgundy/red-violet highlights, I had barely noticeable brown-red foil highlights throughout my hair which we had to go outside to notice at all. At this point, my stylist realized that this was not what either of us wanted and took me inside and proceeded to semi-permanently dye my hair purple. Again, semi-permanent dye was not part of my plan, and I would have preferred to actually have my hair colored permanently, which is what I paid for. But at that point, I wanted to leave more than anything else. My hair also did look much closer to what I wanted it to look like after the semi-permanent dye, but when I went home and washed my hair a day of two later, I realized it was because there was still a lot of dye left in my hair (not rinsed well at the salon). After my first home wash, in natural lighting, my hair didn't look as if it had been colored at all. I felt like I paid for a whole service just to receive a blowout. Naturally, I wanted to talk through my experience. When I called a day or so after the service, I was told that the manager would give me a call back, which I never received. Overall, I was not able to reach the color/look that I wanted, I was made to wait and extra hour and sent home with semi-permanently dyed hair, which I essentially rinsed out myself at home. This was a BAD EXPERIENCE. My stylist was good company, which was the only redeeming part of this debacle. I have had only good experiences at Van Michael before this one, and this is not the service I have come to expect.

Rob Cook is the absolute best in the business! I would go wherever Rob goes.

This was my first time at Van Michael and I had a great experience! After reading all the lovely reviews about Bebe, I decided to book an appointment with her and she did not disappoint! She was very attentive as I described the hairstyle I wanted and gave a lot of helpful styling and hair care tips throughout the appointment. I absolutely love my new haircut and will definitely be back to schedule another appointment with Bebe in the future!

I had my first appointment at Van Michael Salon today, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! Graham did an incredible job with my hair color. From start to finish, it was a fantastic experience. Not only did I find an amazing colorist, but I also felt like I made a new friend. Highly recommend Graham!

A great place with fun people who take care of you.

A wonderful experience as it has been for the last 26+ years!

I just came here to say how great Bebe was and it seems like everyone else beat me to it! Can confirm, she gave me the best haircut I’ve ever had a couple months ago and talked to me about how to better care for my specific hair type. I keep getting compliments!

Sandra is THE BEST. I have been going for years, getting full and partial highlights. The salon is professional, clean and produces quality work. Highly recommend! Dont forget your passing pass to get validated. Free parking very close.

I made my first appointment with Bee Bee for this morning. Bee Bee never showed up. I love how their cancellation policy says they will charge customers 100% of the appointment price if you are a no show. Does that mean I get compensated for my waste of time??
