Great Experience

by EmilySnowe at Citysearch

I have gone to Planet for 6 + years. During this time, I moved to NYC. While in NYC, I went to see over a dozen stylists - none of whom did any where near as well as those at Planet. After these failed experiences, I would travel, every four months, to have my hair done by there excellent staff. Now, I am in Louisville and I still continue to go to Lexington to have them provide my services (they are even doing my wedding). I have never, ever had a bad experience. The staff is WONDERFUL. Anyone who would leave is crazy. From what I've seen , there is all of the internal support and education someone in the industry could ever desire. I've met the owners - they are generous, considerate and do not caterer to only the young, pretty women - they are good to EVERYONE. Anyone on this site, who would make such slanderous accusations against the owner, is obviously a scorn employee.

Again, Planet Salon is a wonderful environment. I will continue to patron this establishment while in Kentucky (or even after I move). They have creative stylists and a wonderful management/owner team. (Plus, classifying an individual as "the Hispanic... on the phone" shows the derogatory nature and ignorance of an individual).

Best Salon in Lexington, Ask for ANGELA

by sarahbess at Citysearch

After searching Lexington for several years, I found Angela. She always takes time to ask about my needs and provide her wide range of knowledge to make sure I get my dream hair. She makes very helpful suggestions and I always leave superbly satisfied. From perms to perfect cuts, coloring to styling, Angela can do it all. Call up the best salon in Lexington and ask for Angela! You will be glad you did.

• Pros: knowledgeable and friendly staff, wide range of services

Fabulous Salon - Ask for Tom!

by lisalexo at Citysearch

Been going to this Salon for a few years now and have never been disappointed. On my fist viist my appointment just happened to be with Tom. I found him to be extremely professional and very talented. He listens to what I want and always delivers. If you are in the market for a new salon and stylist, I'd recommend Tom at Planet Salon!

• Pros: nice environment and talented stylist

Horrible and Unprofessional

by Tasia at Citysearch

My cut was horrible and the color even worse. I went back to have it fixed by somebody else with more experience and it was still horrible. I ended up spending over $100 at another salon that was able to fix Planet Salon's mistakes. The stylists dress unprofessionally, they talk about things clients shouldn't hear, it's not the upscale place the pretend to be. Also, good luck getting figuring out the stylists real experience. They have all these meaningless levels of designers. DON'T GO THERE!

• Pros: They sell Bumble and Bumble
• Cons: Everything Else

5 star for Billie!

by Jess81 at Citysearch

A few months ago, I came in as a walk in to Planet Salon in Hamburg. The lady at the front desk was very friendly and was also upfront about the level of stylists and different pricing per level. I was fortunate that Billie had the only available opening! I was looking for a drastic change and wanted a knowledgable and honest opinion and I found that in Billie. He cut almost 10 inches from my hair, which would send most people into shock! I LOVE THE NEW STYLE! He explained what he was going to do and made sure that I was on board for it, without trying to convince me if I seemed unsure. He wanted to make sure I was comfortable with what he was about to do and that in itself made me comfortable. I have sent a few referrals his way, who have been pleased with his work and, just yesterday, brought a friend in who was looking for a drastic change herself. Honestely, I could care less about the atmosphere of the salon, as long as my stylist is good. But I find Planet Salon to be friendly and comfortable, so that makes it a bonus. Thanks Billie!

• Pros: Billie

Just plain bad.

by tradervictoria at Citysearch

I have been to Planet Salon for years. It is not what it used to be. I know they have lost tons of stylists. I have been to three different people in the last three visits. It is not worth the risk. The desk people are rude, and the people they have in he salon are not busy and very new to hair styling.. It doesn't cut the mustard, or should I say, cut the hair correctly anymore. What bothers me the most, is how they dance around letting you know what experience a stylist has. Very unprofessional. Stay Away!

No More Bad Hair Days!!!

by sassyfied at Citysearch

I recently had my hair cut and colored at planet salon by my new favorite stylist, Kara Myers. She gave me a very thorough consultation. I honestly had no clue what to do with all my hair but Kara helped me figure out a style that suited me and my lifestyle. She came up with a color that I was a little nervous about but she made me feel confident that it would turn out beautiful and it did!! She also taught me how to fix my hair at home myself with the tools that I already had so that my hair would look just as good as it did the day I left the salon. I highly recommend Planet Salon and Kara Myers if you are having a bad hair day!
