Editorial Review for The Beauty Room – by Melissa Colgan

In Short
Nine blocks off the Mississippi River, the aesthetic of this salon is Edina-chic with a downtown sensibility. The chatty clientele bustle in from the surrounding neighborhood for unpretentious hair services by hipster stylists. The minimalist industrial interior puts the focus on modern salon technologies and styling techniques--from precision cuts and color, to SO.CAP extensions and highlights ranging from subtle to suped-up. In the rear, technicians are on hand for massages, waxing, and facials.

User Reviews for The Beauty Room

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

02/05/2008 Posted by SWgirl

Like others said, I followed my stylists from a well known "chain" salon in Uptown a couple years ago, and wouldn't go anywhere else. Cute salon, well designed, interesting art work and relaxed feel. Not at all like many snooty overpriced salons I've mistakenly walked into!! I go to Emily for color, Minjo for cut. I have been asked by strangers off the street where i get my hair colored, so I'm not the only one who thinks it looks good!! Highly recommend both gals!

Pros: Nice staff, cool decor, unpretentious, off-street parking

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

This salon is awesome! The atmosphere is so fun and relaxed. All the stylists are friendly and experienced. My stylist worked in an Uptown salon and like a loyal customer I followed her to The Beauty Room and was so much happier with the atmosphere and friendliness of the stylists. I HIGHLY recommend Erin, she is fun and laid-back. She definately knows what she's doing when it comes to doing hair :]

Pros: free parking

Cons: easy to miss
