Was a out of town guest. Got my hair done for a wedding. Cole did amazing


Jan 31, 2025

Dillon was 10/10!!! I was running behind due to car troubles but they were so kind about it when I walked in. They were very attentive about my hair history and what I wanted my end result to be. I felt so comfortable and safe in this salon and not mention I left with a great haircut that suited my curls. I recommend to all!!!!


Jan 31, 2025

Loved my first haircut experience with Cole! Appointment scheduling was easy and she was fantastic! I love how she cut and layered my hair!


Jan 30, 2025

Jackie was absolutely amazing! I came in for a cut and full color. She layered my hair beautifully and the color came out so rich! Fantastic job, will be back! Thank you!

Gina is the BEST always cuts my hair perfectly! I will always recommend her to the homies.


Jan 05, 2025

Can't say enough good things. I had my hair cut by Gina. Absolutely amazing work. I am usually so unhappy after having my hair done. Not here, Couldn't be happier. I had reference photos, we talked about which one would best suit my hair type and the expectation was definitely exceeded. The atmosphere of the salon is really nice. Great music, great service. I am so looking forward to my next appointment, I never want to go anywhere else.


Jan 05, 2025

Gina is absolutely fantastic! If you are looking for a great fashion color hair artist, go to her. 10000/10

Getting my hair done with Jackie was easily the best experience I’ve had at a salon in years. She listened, she was cautious and went the best route I could have asked for. She had me leaving like a million bucks. If you want to trust anyone with your hair, trust Jackie. Thank you for making me feel brand new. Everyone there was so pleasant comforting and polite. I would come back routinely just for the experience.


Dec 05, 2024

Rae is awesome. I’ve been a client of theirs for about 4/5 years now and don’t get my hair cut by anyone else! They always know how to bring my visions to life. 10/10 would recommend Rae over and over again.

Whow!! I had an awesome experience at Eden Michele today! Jackie was my stylist and from the beginning she was wonderful. I showed her some tiktok inspo videos and she nailed the color, cut and style. I came in to cover my grays and match my natural hair with a chocolate brown. I've experienced massive hair loss recently and asked for a blunt cut with long layers and face framing layers. Her shampoo was top notch! Literal chills!! I LOVE MY HAIR! Her customer service was also great as she offered me water and coffee. She made me a yummy cup of coffee which I appreciated. Definitely coming again!!

Shan did a great job highlighting my hair! She is detailed oriented and takes the extra time to make sure you are happy. I have received many compliments!


Sep 05, 2024

Shan rocks!!!! I walked into Eden Michele Salon this morning as a new client and I instantly fell in love with this place! Shan gave me a wonderful haircut and my experience with her was so enjoyable. She was polite and professional and it was obvious after only a few minutes in her chair, she is an expert at her craft. I turn 42 in two days and I LOVE my new do! Thank you Shan!! I will be back :)


Sep 05, 2024

⭐️⭐️Jacqueline (Jackie) gave me my confidence back! I can’t possibly thank her enough for the magic she performed on my hair today. Recently was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism and have been struggling with poor hair quality and severe hair loss. Today she colored my hair beautifully and put in extensions to give me back my thick long hair! I couldn’t recommend her enough, HIGHLY recommend her!! She will not disappoint 🔥🔥⭐️⭐️


Aug 05, 2024

Got my hair layered, washed, and trimmed yesterday with Shankiria. Overall a great experience, and I even got to hear Shan's lovely voice while she was working away.


Aug 05, 2024

I made an appointment w Gina... She did not disappoint! if you're looking for a alternative hairstylist who has experience and has hairstyle knowledge she's the one! not only did she get my cut done fast she knew exactly the type of cut I wanted she was fun to chat with as well. overall the best experience IV had ever with a salon!!


Aug 05, 2024

I will never return to Aliyah again. She over-sheared my curly hair, leaving me with an insane amount of broken strands that stick out. Now, my hair is frizzier and thinned out.


Jul 05, 2024

I wasn't able to make an appointment, so I attempted a walk-in, as I was desperate for someone to cut my curly hair. Shan happened to be available (later I found out she was about to leave for the day, but agreed to see me when I walked in, which was so generous of her!) Shan doesn't call herself a curly hair expert by name, but I think she definitely is! She cut my hair that was terribly uneven, then taught me how to finger coil my curls and introduced me to new products. The curls she did in my hair lasted 3 DAYS!! A few days later, I texted the salon to see how I could contact her to find out exactly which products she used so I could purchase them, and she called me back within 5 minutes! Shan is generous, personable, and has excellent skill. While it was difficult to get in touch with anyone at this salon (thus the 4 stars, sorry :-(, I highly recommend Shan!!

Michele is amazing, great local salon!


Jun 05, 2024

Absolutely love this salon! I booked an appointment with Gina and she was nothing but fantastic! Not only did she also give me an amazing highlight and lowlight hair color and cut but she was so great to converse with. She also gave me a lot of input of what I wanted to do with my hair and helped guide me to what I envisioned. I’ve been looking for a hairstylist I love for a long while now. So glad I finally found Gina!


Jun 05, 2024

First off, you walk in and the salon is beautiful. I got my hair cut by Cole, who is a wonderful listener and really brought my hair back to life. The shampoo chairs were actually comfortable and the whole experience made me feel like a celebrity. 10/10 will be returning


Jun 05, 2024

Not what I wanted. Don't get me wrong the energy, and staff are amazing. I came in with my hair different colors, and wanted one solid color. I had discussed that, and then let them do their thing cuz they are the professionals. Once finished my roots were darker than the rest of my hair. Looked the same as when I came in just darker. They saw I wasn't really liking it, and offered me to come back, and take care of it. I paid in full, and tipped 40%. Come back, and they brighten my roots with bleach. It came out really bright, but my edges were blonde, my roots orange, and the rest of my hair is darker.... it was free, and I still tipped!! Spent about $280. I gave it a couple days, and I really don't like it...

Go see Aliyah for a curly cut! She really takes her time and she has helped me achieve my hair goals.


Apr 05, 2024

I live in a ponytail. My postpartum hair had no shape or life and I just didn’t feel like myself when it was down. With my first visit at Eden Michele, Dillon helped me feel good about my hair and gave me my confidence back to wear it down all day! Highly recommend this salon and happy to have found “my place” in Gainesville for my hair. Picture1 is pre-salon and picture 2 is after my appointment with Dillon.

Bee is an amazing curly hair specialist with lots of knowledge about all types of curly-haired individuals! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an inclusive stylist!


Feb 05, 2024

Brittaney is awesome! She has been the answer to my prayers. Her tips and recommendations have made my daily hair care so much easier. My hair hasn’t been this healthy or looked this amazing in years. Brittaney goes above and beyond, making each visit relaxing and fun. I love the ambiance of the salon, especially the comradery between the stylists. Music is great too! Worth every single penny.


Feb 05, 2024

Brittaney is literally the best! I went the salon after making the decision to finally get my first curly haircut. My hair had breakage in the middle and was very uneven so I knew I would have to cut a significant portion of my hair. I was really nervous but Brittaney was really so kind and listened to me! She gave me the exact cut I wanted and now my curls have never looked better or more defined!!! I won't be going anywhere else for my curls!


Feb 05, 2024

Dillon was perfect! This was my first haircut in over a year and I was struggling with major postpartum hair loss. She gave me EXACTLY what I asked for and kept the “quiet appointment” calm and relaxing for this tired new momma. After 6 years of living in Gainesville, I’ve finally found my go-to hair dresser!


Feb 05, 2024

Gina is amazing! She is magical with bleaching and coloring. Been going for a while now and have been happy every time! Wonderful service, great advice, beautiful hair. :)


Feb 05, 2024

Great vibe and Gina is always amazing!


Feb 05, 2024

I love the vibe of this salon! My stylist was Brittaney and she was wonderful! She provided education throughout the appointment and provided me with many opportunities to ask questions. She made sure that I understood the steps to follow when washing, conditioning and styling my hair. Bee also made sure that I knew which products she used. She also made sure that I was comfortable while in her chair and at the shampoo bowl. I love my hair! Brittaney is amazing.


Feb 05, 2024

Sharon was amazing at Eden Michele! She took the time to talk with me about my hair, going over my hair type and texture with me while addressing some concerns I had about density. The shampoo + blow out was so relaxing and my hair cut was probably one of the best I’ve had. It was EXACTLY what I wanted and I was just so happy with it; Sharon truly did a fantastic job. Looking forward to my next appointment!


Feb 05, 2024

Sharon was an amazing stylist! She did gorgeous blonde highlights and was very nice and fun to talk to!


Feb 05, 2024

With curly/wavy/frizzy/fluffy hair, I’ve always struggled with knowing what to do with it. I got my first curly hair cut with Brittaney- and wow, what an amazing experience! She was such a thorough and intentional listener- taking time to really figure out where I am in my hair journey and what my priorities are. She helped me understand what products currently are and are not working for my hair- and gave clear, simple instructions on best ways for washing, styling, drying, and what products and tools to use. And then- I’ve been able to successfully carry over what to do from home in a way that I’ve been so happy with!! If you’ve ever thought ‘I don’t know what to do with this hair growing out of my head,’ I strongly and 1000% recommend Brittaney!!
