Melanie saved my hair! 3/19/2012

I made the mistake of trying to highlight my hair at home and it looked horrible. I contacted my friend Melanie, who works at Eikon, and she got me in the very next day and blocked her whole afternoon for me. She was very patient and did everything she could to fix my hair. The amount of time she spent on it was absolutely needed and had I went anywhere else they might not have taken the time. It turned out great and I've already gotten lots of compliments on it. Not only did she fix the color/highlights but I got a super cute cut as well! more

Want the Best? Melanie beats the Rest!!! :) 8/4/2011

Eikon itself presents a warm, fun & funky vibe!! Great salon that stands behind its service & its products! \r \r I have been going to see Melanie for many months now. My hair has never looked better! I have been to many high end salons all across the country, and she easily could take all that competition by storm! She is a great listener, and can envision exactly what you are hoping to accomplish! She is very fun and personable as well! She makes every visit a fun experience! 5 stars! more

EIKON Hair lounge- ask for Melanie! 5/31/2011

Melanie is wonderful! She cut my daughters hair and she could stop saying how Melanie ""read her mind"" , the cut (way shorter) is wonderful. Also she has cut my son's hair and my youngest daughter! My son went in a ""hippie""- very long hair..and came out a handsome young man, short cut. She even saved the ponytail for Ophah's version of locks for love. Cannot say enough nice things about our new haircuts and my haircolor.....all of us are very happy.She is patient and listens very well to want you want.....5 stars for Melanie! more

WOW! 5/27/2011

I normally don't go to a salon to get my hair cut. I let my cousin do it, but I really wanted a fun summer cut, and thought it would be a good idea to get into a salon. I did some research and saw the eikon was highly recommended, and the reviews were not wrong! I saw Dane, and he was friendly right off the bat, I explained what I wanted (not too too short, but edgy and fun) and gave him basic creative control. The final product was AMAZING! It's perfect for my face and sooooo fabulous, I've already gotten compliments and I just left 30 minutes ago. I normally don't write reviews because I feel everyone is so different and one persons idea of great could be anothers idea of rotter, but I felt Dane was so awesome, I just wanted to give him so props!!! more

Dane and Pedicures! 5/4/2011

Just visited with Dane and got my first pedicure of the season (too bad the weather isn't cooperating!) I love how he made me feel comfortable. \r He really took a look at my toes and asked how long I like to keep them. I've never had anyone ask that, they have all just chosen a length for me! Which is usually too long.\r He answered my concernes about the toxins in the polish since I am a cancer survivor. I was happy to hear they were toxin free.\r I'll be back for another pedi soon!\r Deirdre more

Melanie Rocks! 2/7/2011

Melanie does an awesome job! Whether I'm getting all over color, highlights, or a new cut I am always satisfied with what she does. She listens to what I want and makes it happen! I get so many compliments on my hair color and it's all thanks to her! more

Not Pleased 2/7/2011

I wanted to like this place after hearing all the rave reviews, but unfortunately I didn't have a really great experience. I even gave the place a second chance and I traveled from about an hour away both times (which I am totally OK with if the service is great). Specifically, what bothered me about the salon was the particular stylist I had and her attitude. I could overlook the attitude had I had great service and walked away loving my hair, but I never even got what I went in asking for. I found her to be unfriendly and almost belittling. I went to Eikon for some color correction and was recommended to a stylist that specializes in it. When I met her for the first time, she seemed angry from the get go (she was a few minutes late) and made no attempt at chit chat. The no-talking thing is OK because I realize it may not be her personality and that most people like to go to the salon and relax/zone out, BUT, I thought she might at least smile and go through the usual pleasantries of asking me a few things about myself before going tight lipped. I assumed maybe it was just an off day but she was this way the 2nd time, too. I also mentioned that I felt she was ""belittling"" - I knew my hair needed some care when I went in but I didn't expect to be made to feel like I had been walking around with a disaster on my head. I actually felt like crying because she made me feel so bad about it. Maybe instead of just criticizing what I walked in with it, she could have balanced it with something more positive by saying something along the lines of, ""Well, we have a lot of work to do but once we get that old color out and some highlights in, you'll look amazing!"" Plus, on my second trip I showed her some pictures of different styles and some bangs and asked about incorporating the looks in to my style. Again, she was very negative and basically scoffed at me like I was asking the impossible. I would have appreciated it if she would have explained why I could not achieve the same looks and if she would have offered some alternatives or other suggestions. Overall, I think anyone going to a salon wants to feel pretty and happy and relaxed upon leaving. I did not. Eikon is an otherwise neat little place with pleasant, laid-back flair. The owner seems very nice, as do most of the other stylists. However, my stylist's sourpuss attitude really turned me on this place and I hope the owner realizes that sometimes talent does not overcome attitude. I've since found a new salon to call home. And, my new stylist took the time to help me get the looks from the pictures that I had originally taken to Eikon. more

If you want great style, you have to get Melanie!! 2/1/2011

Everyone's had their share of bad haircuts and ok haircuts, but if you're looking to take things up to the next level, then definitely make an appointment with Melanie at Eikon! You'll feel at ease the second you meet her, and she really knows how to look outside the box to give you a look that demands attention.\r \r I've been going to her for a little over a year now, and whether I tell her what I want, or I tell her to come up with something fun on her own, she's always given me an amazing look. Last December, she told me I would look really good with bangs. As a person who hadn't had bangs since the ""Bad Haircut of '96"" I was a little nervous to try them. However, I decided to just go for it (I could always pin them back right?) Melanie gave me a totally awesome cut that framed my face and really made my eyes pop. I had so many compliments and kept the bangs for more than a year!\r \r She's always really descriptive with what she'll do with your hair, keeps you updated while she's doing the cut/color, and never does anything without asking your permission first. She does awesome make-up too! She's really just a great stylist--the second you try her, you'll know what I'm talking about. more

Great Cut, Great Color by Mel 1/30/2011

I recently got a hot new look from Melanie at Eikon. I wanted something edgy, yet classy and Melanie pulled through. She gave me a a sexy blond look with heavy bangs and some nice face framing layers. I've tried to achieve this look at other salons, but the color turned out brassy and the cut fell short. I went to work and have received NOTHING but compliments! Do yourself a favor and try Melanie at Eikon if you're bored with your current look or want someone who really knows hair. more

Melanie at Eikon makes it happen! 1/30/2011

I'm a life long blonde that had recently turned kind of blah - Melanie at Eikon MADE it happen. It's hard enough to get an awesome cut, but to get incredible, natural looking color on top of it? Amazing! She turned my dull blonde into HOT red and gave me an awesome cut to highlight the new me. So reasonably priced - seriously, this is a one stop shop for an amazing cut and color! Red is tough to get and even harder to keep. My color and cut are going strong and it is all due to Melanie. I can't thank her enough!! more

Didn't have a clue 1/29/2011

Wow, wish I could find a place in Pittsburgh who knows how to razor cut hair. This is the second salon here and another bad hair cut. Now I have to find someone to fix it. It is not as if the salon is inexpensive and for that kind of money someone should know what they are doing. I am willing to spend twice as much if I can just get a good haircut!! more

great experience 12/28/2010

I had heard of this amazing salon in Wexford, PA, so I felt complelled to give it a try and...I was completely blown away by the level of professionalism, style and class. eikon supercedes it's reputation! A new client to the salon, I quickly learned that everyone is treated like a star, and its not a stuffy atmosphere. Well, my hair has NEVER looked better! Thanks so much to the staff at eikon for making my first experience one that I will keep repeating! Heather was my stylist and she was absolutely incredible! She does blonde hair like no other!!! The owner has definitely got it right! more

Great hair, Great Personality! 10/15/2010

I just recently moved to the area and had been struggling to find a stylist that could work with my THICK hair. I was very apprehensive to try ANOTHER new place, as I am always disappointed. \r First, the decor and feel from the salon was absolutely amazing. I felt at home right away! Second, ALYSSA (my new stylist) really took her time and made me look amazing. She talked to me about everything she was going to do and made me feel comfortable right away. She was thorough but not annoying. The best part was that Alyssa was so friendly! I felt like we had known each other for years! She had such a great personality with the skills to back her up! Call and make an appointment soon........you will be AMAZED! more

Hottest Hair in PA 9/24/2010

I have lived in Pittsburgh for 5 years, previously living in New York, and have been going to one salon to another, desperately trying to find someone to handle my curly, frizzy, Puerto Rican mane. I thought it was going to be impossible to find anyone that could handle my texture of hair. FINALLY my prayers were answered when I found LaVetta at Eikon. She is the ONLY stylist who knows how to handle my hair and made it ""silky-smooth"". LaVetta has a warm, welcoming personality and AWESOME skills. The staff is so friendly and I felt and looked FABULOUS after my visit. Thanks everyone at Eikon and a SPECIAL shout out to LaVetta... you ROCK! more

Run, don't walk 7/5/2010

I recently decided to go blonde after a lifetime of being brunette and at the same time decided to change salons. I had a color consultation with Laree (sp?) who was awesome, and when I went in for my appointment I felt completely confident I was in good hands. All my friends loved what she did with my hair. Having never been to a salon with tiered pricing, I was worried the attitude would be snobish, but there was nothing to worry about. Everyone is super friendly. Pros: super more

such a nice surprise 4/16/2010

What a great surprise. I won a door prize and had a $25 gift card for this salon. I had been thinking about changing stylists for awhile now, so I figured what the heck. I ended up in Heathers chair, and had a really great haircut. She knows her stuff!! The front desk person helped me completely through the process and was wonderful. Everyone was friendly. I shall be back!!! Pros: great front desk, great haircut more

From bad to beautiful 2/1/2010

I am new to the area and suffered a bad haircut at another salon. After crying about it, I sought out Shawn for a consult. Shawn listened to my concerns, made suggestions and gave me a great cut and color. I have finally found THE stylist I want to stick with. I can't say enough good things about Shawn and the overall salon experience. Your devoted new customer. Pros: Shawn is the one! more

Was NERVOUS now a FAN 11/17/2009

I was so nervous about getting my hair cut at a different salon. I was so pleased when I saw Shawn. Immediately I knew he was the right stylist for me. I have been pleased each time that I go back. He is truly a great stylist. Noelle at the front desk greeted me warmly and has been a great assist in helping me. Pros: comfortable upscale hair salon more

Finally, a stylist that listened 10/23/2009

I was very impressed at how fantastic the whole experience was. I made an appt. with Heather, and had no waiting time once I got there. Heather took her time to do a thorough and wonderful job from start to finish. The surroundings extremely comfortable and relaxing. I loved the bumble hair products Heather used to style my hair, but even more importantly she explained HOW to use them correctly. I will be back for sure. Pros: friendly staff more

Fantastic Haircut! 9/4/2009

After living in Franklin Park for 6 years, I finally found a salon that doesn't charge an arm and a leg for a top-quality haircut. Before I went to Sean at Eikon, I drove into downtown to pay $100 for an excellent haircut. Now that I've found Sean, I won't go to anyone else. He's a gem. Pros: Absolutely fantastic haircut! more
