Great haircut

by Kate Brown

Been going to Hirsute for 12 years. Love the time he spends with me when I get bored with my hair! Have also had my hair colored for 12 years and it always looks great. Can't go wrong making an appointment here.

Anyone who has ever worked there is fanstatic. Jimmy has a very clear idea of what he wants his clients to experience, so he is very choosy in hiring anyone that works in the salon. To quote Frank Sinatra "If you can make it there, you can make it anywhere". Thanks to Tracy for her patience in showing me how to use products in my hair.

  • Pros: Jimmy works with your hair to bring out it's best features

Dissappointed

by mystic dream

I have loved this place for three years now and went last weekend to get a haircut, I was 15 minutes late to the appointment and I did call in to let them know. Jimmy always knows what I need but this time my bangs are a disaster because they look as if I snipped them off with a saw and the reason I didn't notice it at the salon was because his assistant was a sweetheart to set the straightener on after she dried my hair so he could straighten my bangs because I was going out after but he said he couldn't do it since he didn't want the next customer to be waiting!! I mean I completely understand and apologized that I was late but I have been there many times to at least have him do me that favor and it would have taken just a minute. I am a student so I don't have a car and I can't afford to pay the cab to drop by to have him look at it and what can he do even after he looks at it, I mean my bangs are SO short! So yeah now I am stuck with short, messed up and ugly bangs (that I can't even pin up because they are shorter than I had asked them to be), enjoy your first visit and don't forget to get some cash because they don't accept credit cards!!! And yeah go if this is your first visit because after that I feel he just takes it for granted that you will show up next time too so he doesn't try!

  • Pros: Amazing coffee place next door, great art & parking

Nice Salon

Love this place..going back!

by beautymama

Valerie just started at Hirsute and she is great. With 8 years experience, she made me feel fabulous! This salon is so comfortable and cool, without being too edgy. The building is my favorite in Rochester, the "flatiron" where you will also find Edible's and Starry Nights! Everyone is so nice. I love that I can have my eyebrow waxing done at the same place as my cut and color, and Valerie does it all! I can't wait to go see the new artwork at my next appointment! See you there! And tell your friends!

Beautiful Salon

by 109837460584735635

I got my haircut by Jimmy this afternoon and I was very happy. This was my first visit to this salon and it was just as I was expecting after reading some of the positive reviews. The salon seemed very busy but I never felt rushed or hurried. The entire staff there seemed very attentive to me and very friendly. The salon was very nicely designed and full of positive energy that I felt as soon as I arrived. My haircut was better than I ever thought possible. I highly reccommend this salon.

  • Pros: Parking,decor,staff,skill,service
  • Cons: none

Amazing hair salon

by macneim

I have had the same medium-length haircut for most of my life and wanted to try something new. I was fairly nervous about getting it cut short because I usually wear it up. Wendy immediately put me at ease with such a drastic change and made me very excited to see what it would look like. Instead of picking a cut from a magazine, she told me what she thought would work well with my hair, so I went with her opinion. She spent an hour and a half on me. I had a great time talking with her; she's so friendly and personable. She showed me how to style my hair curly or straight and recommended some good products. I bought one (all-natural volumizer that works great). They don't take credit cards but said I could just mail a check. I was so pleased with the style and it was well worth the money (about $40). It was the most expensive and BEST haircut so far and I plan on going nowhere else.

  • Pros: amazing skills, very personable, dedicated

What a GREAT SALON

by loisfrank

I recently attended the annual Artwalk festival and discovered this truly special hair salon. What a unique place! Very cool art work on the walls lends to the modern decor. Very friendly staff and great listeners. I was treated to a delicious cup of coffee, had a wonderful head massage/shampoo and got the best haircut of my life. I appreciated their combination of listening to my concerns and helpful suggestions.

  • Pros: felt relaxed and at home almost immediately
