I have had my hair cut and colored in Dallas for 35 years. Most hair stylist focused explicitly on color or cut. Cole does both and she is SUPER talented. Her results are incomparable. I drive an hour each way for my sessions. Always worth it!

I’ve coming to this place for the past 2 years and I love it! Isabella gets to do my hair and every-time she does she works her magic🪄 she fixed my hair from otc color dye and gave me a wonderful hair treatment that has really improved my hair living it nice and healthy. I’m very satisfied with the hair care i get from her and also enjoy her convos. 😌 Isabella is the best💞

I came into Ciao Bella Salon the day after another salon butchered my hair. I was placed with a stylist named Emily, who I swear is a miracle worker. What I thought was unfixable, Emily fixed it. When I came in my hair had looked like I attempted to do it myself, and I was so embarrassed to go out into public. I didn’t even want my boyfriend to see me. Emily made me feel like a queen by the time I left. She corrected the color, which I did not think was possible. We fixed the cut. She saved my birthday. Not only is she a sweet and caring, but she listens to you and what you want. She is also very knowledgeable in her profession. The salon itself is a wonderful place for anyone to get their hair done. The stylist work amazing with each other and they all truly want what’s best for you! I would highly recommend Ciao Bella salon to anyone. Although Emily, she will make you feel like a queen. Attached are before and after photos - I’m still in awe on how perfect Emily fixed my hair. Thank you Emily for saving my birthday! I am so in love with your work and I cannot wait to see you again! <3

Darcy is fantastic! I am always thrilled and get tons of compliments. If you want amazing color and haircut definitely get an appointment with her. My boys and husbands love Cole. They have difficult hair to cut. They are so picky and hard to please and they are super happy every-time.

Isabella is a miracle worker. I had my hair colored at a different place and I was SO unhappy with it (streaks of blonde haphazardly in my hair, unsymmetrical, etc) tears. I’d never been to Ciao Bella but a friend recommended it and wow I’m so glad. Isabella listened to me, reassured me, and i don’t know how she did it, but my hair looks so wonderful. It’s exactly what I wanted. She was so kind and friendly too. I’m not a big talker during hair visits and she respected that. I’m so grateful to her and her magic. She is so talented.

Cole did a beautiful job with highlighting, lowlighting and cutting my hair. The owner is also personable and thoughtful. Thank you for the Valentines Day rose. :-)

I have been visited this salon a few times. The stylists do a good job overall - I have only being getting haircuts, so can’t speak to color or texture treatments. What I don’t love is the fact that parking is extremely limited. Their website mentions a spot for free parking (always full) and a garage on 2nd ave to which they can supposedly provide ticket validation. This was not the case in person, though, so parking ends up being far and expensive. I also did not appreciate the fact that I was seated 30mins late. Had I been the one who was late to my appointment, they would have penalized me. So, they get to be late and don’t even apologize for it or offer an extra something for the inconvenience? At minimum they could have given a courtesy call to let me know they were running late, and I would have taken extra time to find a better parking. I only recommend if you live nearby and can walk to the appointment, and can afford to me late to your next commitment.

I was a little unsure about changing my hairstylist in my hometown and going somewhere in Gainesville, but I’m extremely happy I decided to go to Ciao Bella. Michele is very nice and knowledgeable and gave me the best haircut! Thank you

I needed a hairdo for a wedding, and COLE did a great job. Without much direction from me she gave me some things that I really adore.

"Pricey" for hair dye and haircut .... To me... It was over $100.00. Otherwise happy with cut and dye

Had intents of scheduling my wife's hair appointment for a cut and full color, until they told me that it is standard practice with all salons that a deposit of at least half the estimated cost is required. First of all I have never heard of that practice, second of all it is a lie, not ALL salons require it, and last but not least I felt the explanation of the young lady as insulting. I have no plans of ever doing business with this salon. I found one that was very accommodating and DOES NOT require any kind of deposit.

I am so happy to find this salon! Michele cuts your hair by ensuring it follows the shape of your head allowing hair to fall in a more natural manner. He is a master! The rest of staff are excellent also. Have used Cole for waxing and highlights. She is dynamite!

Let me preface this by saying that I do not leave reviews on businesses. I went to ciao Bella salon as a new client and wanted to do something different and was not disappointed. Hailey was fantastic she was excited when I wanted to change up my color slightly and went at it with full enthusiasm. Never in my life have I had so many people say to me the next day wow your hair looks fantastic. I will definitely return and encourage all of my friends to make the hour long drive to Gainesville to visit the salon 🥰
