I started going to Magnolias in the fall of 2007 after moving down to Orlando. Leaving behind my stylist of 10+ years was hard, but Magnolias and their fantastic staff has made the transition easy. From the minute you walk in the door you feel like you're coming "home". Even as a newcomer to this salon I was welcomed like a regular, offered a drink, and made to feel at-ease in my surroundings. Everyone is talkative and their customer service is unmatched by any other salon I've been to.
Abby is my stylist and I must commend her on the wonderful work she does. My hair is difficult to work with and she seems to have the magic touch. My hair looks best now more than ever. She does my color and highlights and I don't believe I'll ever be disappointed by the results. She listens to my input and suggests what she thinks will work...and I trust her enough to always go with her suggestions. The cuts and styles she uses on me are always great and age-appropriate. I love that when my appointment is over they pre-book me for my next visit, which keeps my trims on track. I started as a skeptical new-comer to the Orlando area, wondering if anyone could work with my hair, and Magnolias has made a believer out of me. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair.
Pros: fantastic atmosphere, friendly faces, wonderfully talented staff
Cons: parking gets tight at times, pricey but beauty is worth it
