Honey & Hive Salon in Springfield, MO

I love this salon! It is really cute and Annie was great. She gave the best scalp massage when washing my hair. She was so thorough and cut my hair so great. It's my favorite hair cut in a long time and I'm from California so typically get my hair cut there. She was awesome!! I highly recommend her

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE FRIED MY HAIR OFF!!!
 Went to a new hairdresser named rachel after getting my hair done for three years.. NOT by choice but i was horribly dissatisfied. Let's start with she's been doing hair for over 20 years. what went wrong. 1. my scalp was so sensitive from the volume she used and didn't go away for at least a couple hours. 2 no foil i but i brushed it off. 3.didn't part my hair correctly even after explanation. (blond was in darker areas and darker areas were in the blond) i sat there and sectioned it myself while she was gone, shouldve walked out then.. 4.put me under heat with bleach down to my ears for 10 minutes/ 5. interchanged with a guy who was obviously under apprenticeship (totally fine) who decided to comb my hair in the sink with bleach on it. (no shampoo or conditioner yet) as you could imagine my hair is fried and she thought it wouldn't be noticeable because of the way my hair part. i have a ring around my head from where the bleach was overlapped and it's two completely different colors. When i asked for my money back with pictures (politely ) she said she'd send it back to the person and walked away immediately, after pretending to not see the damage. No apology or even understanding.

Honey + Hive is such a fun, tidy, and lovely atmosphere! I see Austin and he gives me the best hair cuts I've ever had. I have bangs and have usually struggled to find hairstylists that can cut them well, and Austin is stellar. Everyone there is also encouraging and warm, and I always enjoy the chats. 14/10 recommend.

After salon hopping for the first couple of years living in Missouri, I found home in Honey + Hive Salon.

I did go through a few different hair stylists but all of them were great. I had Tabby, Kambree, and now Megan Jessy.

And each time was a wonderful experience. I was too scared for a long time to chop my hair off or get away from dying my hair black because it was just low maintenance. Being a mom and living an hour and a half away from this salon, I don't always get the chance to get my hair done often.

But I decided I needed some change and have been talking to Megan Jessy about chopping my hair off and starting the blonde journey from black hair. Today was my first session and my hair came out exactly how I expected if not better! As you should know, going from dark hair to blonde is a PROCESS. It doesn't happen after one or even two sessions.

This was Megan's first time doing a balayage on me and she was seriously so amazing and personable! I highly recommend her. And her cutting skills? I am the pickiest person when it comes to cut. I come from Nashville, TN where I spent good money on haircuts. And let me tell you, Megan is one of the BEST.

I had to upload updated photos because Yelp lacked them. Truly, Honey + Hive is a hidden gem. I've been to 3 different salons in town and this one is where you need to go.

I went to Honey + Hive to get about 2-3 inches cut off my hair with a slight angle to make a long bob. The entire experience was very rushed and impersonal. I was kind of concerned when she started chopping my hair because she was very distracted and talking to other people around her. Nevertheless I assumed she new  what she was doing for a $45 haircut with then a $10 tip. Also I told her my concern about getting this much cut off because   I had a bad experience years ago where I had to get a pixie cut due to someone botching my hair. She reassured me, still working very quickly and distractedly, curled my hair and I was honestly satisfied with the way it  looked, it looked super cute curled! She didn't give me a mirror to look at each side or the bacK but I honestly forgot because she was rushing so fast that I didn't think about it until I got home that night. I noticed my hair felt so uneven on my shoulders and I panicked a little. I brushed my hair out and straightened it  because my hair is NATURALLY straight which I told her I never curl my hair so I need to be able to  wear this style straight. After straightening my hair it was extremely obvious I had layers on the right half of my head and none on the left AND the left side was almost an inch and a half longer. Now I'm either stuck with curling my hair everyday to Hide this mistake or I have to go pay and get my hair cut shorter with layers which I did not want AT ALL. I wanted a blunt none layered lob. I'm extremely devastated because I had been working to grow my hair out to get it cut into a lob. I'm not saying the entire salon is bad but I would not recommend getting your hair done by Tabby at all. I never leave harsh reviews with names but I am so upset and this is an amateur mistake that someone working in a high end salon like this should not make. I did not request for my Money back and I did not go in for her to fix it because I was scared she would  just mess it up more.
