I am so astonished with how horrible my haircut is that I don’t even know what to say. I asked for a wolf cut, or choppy layers going down my hair, even providing reference photos. Instead, I got whatever this atrocity is (image attached). You definitely get what you pay for, as the cut is $44, which should’ve been my first warning sign. The hairdresser (Skye) did not seem to know what she was doing in the slightest. I asked for her to blend my layers after she did the initial chop of the top hemisphere of my head, and after asking for more blending multiple times, I gave up. I absolutely do not recommend this hair stylist, not sure how the rest of the salon is, though. I am extremely disappointed and angry.

Not a good experience, but I'm sure it was just the hairs dresser I got, seemed like she was lazy, wrong color, I left a hot mess hair dye on the side of my face it was nuts, even after I told her dye was on the side of my face she was just not caring the girl was young, still no reason for how she was showing no concern.

I've been going to this salon for years with no problem, but unfortunately it only takes one bad cut to ruin your hair. I've always had long and thick hair but after asking for a trim I walked out with hair that was way too short and horrible choppy layers. The owner wouldn't give me a refund either. They wanted me to come in to get it cut again instead of refunding me, even though I explained that it was already cut way too short. Don't risk coming here.

Loyal client of the Lift. High quality cuts and color everytime. This is a busy salon, and they are strict about their cancellation policy. They confirm appointments ahead of time but if you don’t show up you will be charged. this maybe a downside for some people, but it shows the salon is of the highest caliber. They take good care of their clientele, staff is attentive and prompt, clean modern space with parking.

Worst experience ever. Ruined my hair and spent over $500. In two years my hair still has not recovered. The "stylist" bleached my hair all in one excruciating session, they let the bleach sit for well over an hour. Which turned it into straw. I ended up having to cut it super short, just to get all the damage out. Save your money and your hair, do not go here!Service: Hair coloring

Aveda (Boston) would serve tea. Lift serves Champaign. First class styling.The stylists are very proficient though everybody is different. Sometimes three different people assist you. Other times they get a little distracted. I've had some confusing results. But I choose to work through it.Twice, the scalp massage was spell inducing.Service: Haircut

This was my first time at this hair salon and I just went for a quick trim for my hair. They did a really good job, however the rate that I was told for a trim/haircut ended up being doubled when I went to get my hair done. When I called them after my appointment to ask them about the pricing and why mine was so much compared to others all they said was that the lady who was doing my hair has a higher rate because of her skill level. That is fair yet I was not aware of that and did not specify who I wanted I just made an appointment and feel as though I should have been told that the price would be increased because I would have then gone in a different direction.

Laura Ochs did such an amazing job on my hair - I went to a different salon and got an awful hair cut 6 weeks before my wedding and I was so upset. Laura was an absolute miracle worker and I’m so thankful! I highly recommend her.Service: Hairstyling

This salon is beautiful and so friendly and welcoming. I saw Laura for a haircut and she is truly a hair magician. She knew exactly what to do with my curly hair that desperately needed a refresh. She was incredibly kind and friendly and personable and a wealth of knowledge when it comes to wavy and curly hair. I’m very excited to have found this salon and this stylist!Services: Hairstyling

This is very overdue, but I just wanted to take the time and share my outstanding experience here. I am blown away by the professionalism, quality, and cleanliness of the place.Another bonus is that it's so close to where I live, I could practically walk here, or run here (no joke)! And not to mention, near Jake's, which is a phenomenal breakfast/lunch please. They also give you a couple of cookie biscuits which are so good pre Covid. Plus everyone who works here is super friendly!! ?I asked for someone who specializes in blonde color, and got Jordan. From the moment I met I felt like I've known her forever ? She's extremely personable, kind, can talk about anything with you, and makes you feel at ease. Most importantly she's very caring and cares about the health and integrity of your hair!I was nervous to go all blonde again, as my hair is very dark. Plus I've been to so many salons in the area who end up making my hair this orangey color, when in fact I'm looking for an ashier look. Trust me, it's hard to find!But Jordan did a fabulous job and this was one of the most fun appointments I had! She has never failed to amaze me. From getting me from my natural (very dark brown) to a bleached out ashy blonde and some blonde colors in between ?Services: Highlights

The Lift in North Amherst is a wonderful salon! Very clean and everyone is super friendly and welcoming. This was my first time at this salon, and I am glad that I went. Jordan cut my hair and did an excellent job. She took the time to go over everything that I wanted and checked in as she cut my hair to make sure I was happy with it. I can't get over how smooth and wonderful my hair feels. All the hair products are great, they smell good too! Highly recommend!Service: Hairstyling
