The Beauty Lounge in Gibsonton, FL

Thank you Ana for making my hair look amazing! I've been with this hair salon twice and it's the staff super friendly, has great vibes, and honestly overall worth every penny!

Had a nice haircut with Kayleigh this week while I was visiting my mom in the area. The salon is spacious and clean and Kayleigh was really nice and a good conversationalist. If I lived in the area I'd go back.

I booked a session with Ana to curl my hair for my maternity photos. I was worried about how long it would take due to having long, thick hair. Not only was Ana quick and efficient but it also looked so good! I never do my hair so was legit obsessed and in awe! in total i was in and out in just under an hour with a wash, dry, and full head of looser curls. Ana even recommended keeping my front pieces pinned back to make them last until my photos almost 3 hours later. 10/10 recommend!

Came here while visiting family and seeing if the area would be a good fit for relocation. I desperately needed a haircut and called for an appointment. Was thrilled when they would be able to fit me in and also asked if I could come in for a consultation. Everyone is nice and courteous. During my consultation, I was informed the color I wanted would not be possible, which is fair since I know how dark my hair is. A sample of hair was taken to test and on the day of my appointment, my stylist also mentioned what I wanted wasn't possible. Idealistically I wanted a silver, ash tone (pic) for balayage, so I was indecisive with the ash options provided or red (red is something I commonly pick). After bleaching, my stylist gave me more hope as she said it got lighter than expected and said I could get a shade darker than what I wanted. Which I was thrilled about after reconfirming by pulling out the example pic again. I also showed an example of the style of layering that I wanted and for the ends of my hair to be in a "V" shape (pic), my go to style since I have thick hair, but still wanted to keep it semi long. The whole balayage process took at least 3-4hrs, which is not uncommon to me when I want more than just a cut and I have to admit, it's been awhile since I went to a salon. Refreshments was offered and my stylist was kind during this visit. As we were nearing the end, they had already closed, which I felt bad about. The haircut did not take long at all and I was skeptical, layering my hair usually took longer everywhere else. We were all still focused on how my color came out and I am no professional hair stylist, so I accepted the praise of the color end results. If they weren't already closed, I would have asked about my layers and "V" shape ends. I truly enjoyed my visit, but over a month later, I do not like my hair. This is honestly the worse haircut I have received. I am content with the color, I understand I need to go back to a salon to achieve the color I want, but I honestly don't even look at my hair or attempt to style it. It is choppy and in chunks even when I put it into a ponytail and it truly makes me want to cry. When usually if layered correctly, my hair gradually gets thinner towards the end. I have provided pics. I truly contemplated this review because I have so much mixed emotions about it, but in the end, I did pay $400 and believe I should be able to share my experience. The salon is clean and staff is nice, but my haircut honestly leaves me quite depressed.

Just moved to the area and decided to book an appointment (foil highlights and trim) based on Yelp review, I was not disappointed and am super happy with my experience and will be back! I called and explained what I wanted done and the receptionist made the appointment with Anahi (Ana), perfect match! Ana took her time and asked questions before starting, making sure of how I wanted my hair foiled and trimmed, she also explained what she was doing every step (loved that) end result was Exactly the way I wanted my hair done!! The Beauty Lounge salon space is beautiful, newly decorated and upscale, they have robes for clients, offer beverages, great shampoo stations with foot stools (very comfy) and super clean. I highly recommend this salon!!
