I've been going to Vanity Salon a while and it's always good to be around the whole salon staff. They work as a team and truely come together to help me leave feeling beautiful, well balanced and on time. If you've ever been to "A TYPICAL" salon,you'll get your stylist that may not even care about what you want, or even if they can't do the service you want, and the rest of the staff could care less, because you're not their client. @ Vanity if your'e stylist can't do "it" another stylist can. That's important in the salon, but in the world in general if we all worked together it would be a happier place.Coudos Vanity Salon!!If your'e in the market for a new stylist try this salon, everyone is great and you'll search no more for a salon "home"!

I went to Vanity in September for the first time and I had a great time. I thought the staff was nice and I was pleased with their work and their prices. I called again today to schedule another appointment. The girl's name was Margaret and she was very nice, but after I got done explaining to her that I wanted an appointment etc., she asked me to wait for a second. Instead of putting me on hold or muting her phone, she just kind of put the phone down. So I could hear everything that was going on. Basically, she was on a personal phone call (most likely on her cell) with what sounded like her electric company and she talked to them for a good 5 minutes while I was just waiting there getting impatient, after which she picked up the phone again and told me that she was having some trouble with her computer and would call me back in 5 minutes because it was rebooting right now. Clearly, she just wanted to finish her call with the electric company. Weak. Number 1, taking personal phone calls while you're on the job is unprofessional. Number 2, if for some strange reason her phone call with the electric company was that urgent, then she could have explained that to me and I would have been understanding. Number 3, she straight up lied to me and elaborated on her lie ("it's rebooting right now..." etc.) which made me feel like I didn't matter much as a customer. Not really a huge deal, but definitely poor customer service.

I visited Vanity last week after meeting Laura Gamble the week before. I was most impressed at the cordial greeting from all of the staff. They really seemed to care about me as a person and not just as a client. The setting is filled with wonderful natural light and the office layout was easy to navigate. I appreciated the warm nature of the staff and will be back to utilize their services. I think that you would find this to be your place of choice for your beauty care needs
