Mi Salon & Spa

A few weeks ago I stopped in to Mi Salon to get a color treatment. I was quite nervous because my hair had an awfully ugly color band from the last time it was dyed, but they re assured me everything would be great! I got scheduled with David S, and we hit it off immediately! The second I saw him, I got really excited and let him know, «I want my hair color to be just like yours!» (I was in love with his beautiful orange hair! It’s often the color I go for, but for some reason hair stylists have a hard time achieving this) And boy, did he deliver! We not only had great conversation, but my hair turned out incredible, just like he promised it would. I completely recommend seeing David for color! Especially if you have trust issues from negative color experiences from the past, David will renew your faith in the hair industry!
Thank you thank you!

Brittany does my gel nails. She does the best job that I have found. My nails last three weeks and never peel off in great big sheets. She is really sweet and I really enjoy having my nails done when she is available. She is the reason for the five star.

SPA REVIEW
I don’t think the services offered are as high end as the prices.
They do a nice job, but I enjoyed a spa day at different local place much more than here.
Noticed a big lack in consistency with services. Some had neck wraps and foot baths while they were waiting. I was only offered the foot bath. Some were not offered anything.
I would highly recommend they upgrade the robes they offer. Both the linen and terry robes were dingy and had edges fraying from being washed so many times. Would also recommend some type of aroma therapy in the private or public areas of the spa. A little eucalyptus goes a long way.
Difficult to relax during a massage while you hear voices in the hallway
Lunch offered is not very great. ordered chicken Salad and it is basically a scoop of pickled chicken and mayo on a bed of ice burg lettuce.
I would go here again for an individual service, but not a spa day.

I was so incredibly excited to find a place in the area that does scalp massages, I get horrible headaches and migraines and have been told this can help them.
I called on a Monday and booked an appointment for the following day at 3:00pm. I was amazed with the ease of getting an appointment so quickly. Yay!
On the website, it’s listed under one of the 30 minute services with give or take time for getting dressed, etc. This is the standard norm for all massages. An hour massage is usually 50 minutes, so I’m assuming that my 30 minute appointment will actually be somewhere between 22 – 25 minutes of massage. No…
I arrived and checked in at 2:47, there was a line to check in, so I waited a couple minutes, then went to the restroom, and when I walked out of the restroom my massage therapist, Deborah, is waiting on me. She immediately takes me back to the massage room. Other than introducing herself she never says a word.
I get situated by taking my shoes off, putting my stuff in the corner, and we immediately get started and it’s good. Really. It’s a pretty dang good scalp massage. In my mind, I’m flipping my headache off and telling him goodbye. However, I’ve been laying there for what seems like a nanosecond and she says «okay, meet me outside whenever you’re ready.»
Now, I know I’m not great with time, but this seems a little crazy.
I take a minute to lay on the table, put my shoes on, get my purse, meet her outside the door where she hands me a glass of water. She walks me to the front. Again, doesn’t say A WORD.
I check out, walk out the door, get in my car, and look at my phone. It’s 3:07.
I couldn’t have been on the table for more than 10 minutes.
Would not recommend. Seriously. 10 minutes.

The first three spas I ever went to were in Napa valley, NYC and Las Vegas. After that I was spoiled and had trouble finding something semi-​decent in the Cincinnati area over the course of several years. A few of the places were okay and a couple were terrible, and ALL were just as pricey as the places I had gone to in these other parts of the country, if not more money! I’ve gone to Mi Salon spa twice now with girlfriends in the past year and we absolutely loved it. Not only was it less espensive than anywhere else I’ve been in Cincinnati but every single aspect of the experience was great both times. I will definitely be back.

LOVE this salon! Yesterday was my first time there and it’s a great place. Christina (or Kristina, not sure how to spell it) was amazing! My wedding is in July and I was so worried about my hair (severely damaged) she took a half inch dry so we didn’t cut it too short but getting the dead stuff off. The color is soooo beautiful. I give it 4 stars only because the price was $ 159 for a cut and bayalage.

DONT GET YOUR MAKE UP DONE HERE!
I had scheduled airbrush makeup for my wedding and it was awful! My hair done by Chloe was amazing. Amy did my make up and I’ve never ever seen someone who is so unprepared or a make up up artist have such a lack of skill or supplies. I can’t even talk about the level of stress it caused. Don’t get your make up done there.
However my wedding hair looked beautiful. Chloe did exactly what I wanted with a great attitude! She’s very talented. Thanks Chloe!

SIMPLY AMAZING! Kayla was my colorist who took a bad color that I reviewed and fixed it beyond my expectations! The salon is very friendly, beautifully done inside and they make you feel special! From the free beverages to the free popcorn to the beautiful interior, there really is no place I would rather come for all my salon needs. I would highly recommend Kayla for any color need you have she is a true master at what she does. When you are there for the first time they will give you a consultation and let you know the cost of what you would like done so there’s no surprises and most importantly they stand by their work 100%. They strive to make you happy! I can’t rave enough about this wonderful place!

Tammy colored and styled my hair and I love it! The cut is really great and my hair is just naturally falling into place. I would highly recommend her.

I went here to get my hair highlighted by «Bailey» and she did a WONDERFUL job. She’s amazing. My roots were really grown out and she took care of everything— really fast. I had a full head of foils, done properly, in less than an hour. She also took the time to style my hair, after my cut. AMAZING BLONDE color. Exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend «Bailey» for any service. She’s incredible. Super sweet and easy to talk to!!!

I recently had my hair colored and cut at MI Salon. My balayge color was amazing and so was the cut! The stylist was very informative and asked questions to find out what my hair style goals were, so as to achieve the best results possible, and she did. I love this salon!

Eh… Super friendly staff, not the greatest experience. Would not be my first choice for the spa treatment

Jazmyne did a spectacular job on my blow out.
The story is that I was finishing up a client meeting and flying out the same day to Philadelphia to see a former flame, whom I haven’t laid on eyes in 7.5 years. I wanted my hair to have lift, body and movement.
Jazmyne gave me a relaxing shampoo and brought me back to her chair for the perfect blow out. Even though it started raining outside I was able to keep my hair perfect in time for my reunion with my love.
Thanks, Jazmyne.

This place is amazing. I recently had my hair done at another place and they did a horrible job. I came to this salon so they could correct my awful hair color and cut. Reagan did an AMAZING job correcting my color. My hair is a beautiful blonde with no brass or yellow or random brown chunks!
– Update –
Had another full highlight done here. The job was done OK. Once I came home I noticed in lighting that my 2 inches of root was very slightly darker blonde than the rest of my hair which did bother me. I ended up having it corrected with another full highlight at another salon. Unfortunately the girl who cut my hair missed a small patch that ended up being longer than the rest of my hair, it was an easy fix and I had my mom trim it to match the rest. The girl did a good job on my bangs that I was nervous about getting though! Despite this, once I get my hair color stabilized (long story from another review) I would definitely come here for root touch ups and hair cuts.

I’ve been coming to Mi Salon for hair, nails, and waxing for years. Natalie is my favorite stylist and Veronica and Angela do a great job in the nail department. All three of these women do great work and are exceptionally kind and friendly. Prices are on the high side but worth the phenomenal service

Oh wow. How have I not written a review for this place yet?
I have been coming to Mi Salon and Spa for over four years. My stylist Amanda who I absolutely ADORED is no longer there. She was always on trend, friendly and always delivered exactly what I wanted. Really impressed with her and sad she’s gone. With that being said, you know when you have been going to the same person for over four years you have a mini freak out moment when they suddenly aren’t there anymore. SO – I gave Mi Salon a call and they told me they would be happy to recommend someone. So I did it. I jumped with a leap of faith based on how awesome Amanda was.
Yesterday I came in and met with Regan, one of their top colorist. She was friendly and easy to talk to (even when I was freaking out at the beginning). I let her know exactly what I wanted and then I closed my eyes and prayed to god nothing crazy happened.
Fast forward two hours later and a million highlights later, viola! A beautiful shimmering blonde again. Regan listened to everything I wanted. It wasn’t brassy, the highlights were well incorporated with the fall lowlights and everything turned out just perfect. I might add that after freaking out that Amanda left I waited WAY longer than normal to finally commit to coming back and my roots were a HOT MESS.
I would recommend Regan to anyone looking for color correction or just color or highlights in general. She is a miracle worker and for a fair price — I paid only $ 65 for a full color and $ 30 for a toner to get all the gross brass color out. I will definitely be back!

Side Notes:
— The cool earth tones are very inviting and the place is always nice and clean.
— They have complimentary popcorn, tea & coffee in the lobby which is also a nice touch.
— One thing that I think really sets this salon apart is that it requires it’s stylists to take continuing education (it is part of a school) and I think that is CRUCIAL. This also helps them stay on top of trends like ombré, cuts that are popular etc. which I really appreciate.
— They have many innovative services that traditional salons lack like: extensions, nails, massages etc.
Bottom line, the place is the bee’s knees!

Best haircut I’ve had in a while! I have colored my hair at home a lot and so it is in a very delicate state currently. I also have extremely thick hair. My whole life I’ve had a nightmare of a time finding a stylist I could trust to even breathe on my hair much less come at it with scissors! But I finally found a great lady who knows exactly what she’s doing and my hair looks glamorous and I love it! You must see Tiffany– she’s very light hearted and excellent with hair, especially thick hair that’s hard to manage. If you’re looking for a new stylist and you’re super picky and particular about your hair like I am, she is a safe bet for thinning and shaping your hair exactly the way you would like it :)

Very pleasantly surprised!
After reading the mixed reviews of Mi Salon & Spa, I was a tiny bit hesitant about the gift card my boyfriend gave me for my birthday. But I have to say that my experience was awesome! From beginning to end, every employee I encountered was friendly and professional. I got a massage from Darlene, who I cannot recommend enough, that was perfect. The spa area is nicely appointed, and has a tangible feeling of calm as soon as you walk in. The robe and slippers were clean, smelled great, and were very plush. My massage was very thorough; firm yet still relaxing. Darlene walked me though everything she was doing, asked if I had any particular concerns, and made sure to check on my comfort level throughout the process (though she mostly certainly didn’t interrupt the quiet too much). TL;DR I will absolutely book her in the future and she’s just great at what she does!
Next I got a «Toes to Go» pedicure from Jaden that was just as fantastic as my massage. I LOVE my pedicure! So much I can’t stop checking it out, probably looking like a weirdo. But it’s that good! She was patient and totally understanding when I asked to switch polish colors after the first coat (I’ve never done that before, but I had accidentally chosen a pretty heinous color) and did a perfect job. She was also smart and fun to talk to!
I’d highly recommend booking with these ladies in particular. It’s a little out of my way, but they made it worth it!

I’m super picky about my hair, and my nails. I’m every bit a of a girly girl and I’m not ashamed to admit it. I have strayed from this salon a couple of times when I couldn’t get in with my stylist (who is always booked months in advance, because he’s so flipping awesome). After going to other salons to have my hair done and seeing the end result, I was never fully happy. Lesson learned.
There are so many super talented stylist here. The nail techs are nice and take their time. I’ve always had a great experience in the spa as well. The customer service here is outstanding!
I used to work here way back in the day, so my opinion might seem a little biased to some. But the fact that I have remained a client since I’ve left, has to say something positive right? Must be the combination of my stylist and that customer service I was talking about…

This review really is only about a single hair stylist here…
BROOKLYN
The girl… is amazing. She is fun, easy to talk to, creative, and ALWAYS gives a stellar hair cut. I have donated my hair (now 3 times) and after the second time Brooklyn helped me grow it out so it didn’t look like crap during the grow out process — every hair cut looked better than the last!
I went in today to donate again and… once again… she made me feel great and look glamorous.
I had one haircut by Josh a few years ago when she wasn’t available and he is great too!
Even though it’s a 45 minute drive for me… it is SO worth it.
When I was living in Chicago I had the hardest time finding someone that could even come close to comparing to Brooklyn that I would make sure I got my hair cut by her when I would come to Cinci for visits for the first year I lived there.
I can’t say enough good things :-)
